Topic: Getting up and trying again (Read 642 times)

Don't be conclusive that nothing good comes easily. What about air 🤔. Anyway, I guess I know what you're trying to say. Challenges are necessary obstacles and barriers man has to overcome in life for gain glory, though a great number of people don't what challenges coming their way. Gold is what it's because it passed through fire for refinement. By the way, the word you've consistently misspelt in this post is, "there". It shouldn't be spelt as their as used.

Their is no distractions that's meant to co - exist. We caused a distraction by ourselves, indecencies that we are opportune to detect what is obtainable but because of things of no values will redirect our objectives towards a concentrated direction that's obtainable. Many things come easily but it's our level misfortune and sins that made us to feel that you most get everything by struggle. What we are suppose to concentrate on, is the ability to know our direction and it's very simple to understand.

Nothing good that is so value comes easily,  their must be storms that would want to stop but all you  need to do is to put effort to get to the end. All this challenges that always their are distraction that are meant to be .

Op i just want you to understand that without obstacles circumstances you can not know your direction, some people get gold at planter of hand and misused it, and some people doesn't get up without seeing the closeness between heel and success, so once you made a mistake, as learned person you won't allow such to repeat itself, falling or deviating from were you are before to another place is part of corrections

I think in life if without hard times and difficulties one be slow in his or her achievement.  The more hard times we get in cryptocurrency makes one to learn better and not to repeat some mistakes.  Let us be intimidated with the hard time we come across in cryptocurrency,  they are not their to stay for ever.

Investing in crypto should be understood as a real business and not as a hobby in your free time.
This means that before each investment it is necessary to analyze the market in detail, set priorities, make a risk assessment, set realistic goals and have a clear exit strategy.
This analytical approach is the best protection against making sudden and wrong decisions under the influence of emotions or panic.
In doing so, my advice is to always diversify into different asset classes, which means not investing all your money only in crypto.

Knowing the reason why you are into a particular thing matters a lot. If you are into crypto or any form of business because others are doing same, you may not get it right. Whatever you have passion for, you will always be ready to endure no matter what happens because there is a target and its to be successful.

Most times we are so concerned about the positive aspects of things and we neglect the fact that a coin has two faces. Its okay to make mistakes, but its not reasonable to make the same mistake twice. Learn from your mistakes, if you are giving the same opportunity like you once had, look at the things you did wrong before and analyze how you can do better this time. Let's always remember that you can only be congratulated when you get to the finish point, so don't stop halfway, keep pressing forward, one day, you'll make it to the top.

Life comes with it up's and down,It will throw different things at you, the ability to bounce back and  try again is what makes you a strong person, showing resilence,fall down 10times, win the 11th times .
Cryto will throw its shades on you ,your ability to manage it effectively is what makes you a strong person ,never forget the days crypto made you smile, crypto has changed lifes,If it knocks you down, never give up try again ,give trial another chance, This time around restrategize, soon you will smile again.

sometimes failing in something does not mean we get back at  it, it could mean to move on and start something else. but if we want to get back at what we failed at, our mistakes should educate us. we could start from the basic. where did i get it wrong?, what can i do differently?. this will lead to further research and education on bitcoin.. if one don't have the resources for bitcoin, what other altcoin with potential that one can invest in after proper research. humans learn more from visual learning, like diagram, pictures and videos.one could start with these, before reading white paper, then moving forward to an experience individual or reliable forum that could educate someone.

In reality, we need to be adjustable shoulder person learn many things about the project we entered cause if we know already that project is a scam and them why you are still using that project? You must quit and find another project that can make you happy in the end of the payday, let it go and try again, sometimes we fall into a trap and so we need to getting up and start a new once.

just waiting for the time to come and have to be patient. Besides that, learning everything well without having to panic when the market is bearish would be better. Doing good management will also help, capital management, risk management so that the strategies that have been made can run well.

When all assets are bullish and profits have been obtained, we are also reminded not to be greedy. Because greed will only give you losses.

Their is nothing to strive with a scam project,  quiting is the best option for a scam project.  When it comes to projects that are real and reliable  one may be having tough challenges maybe  because of no good learning foundation,  disappointment and quiting can be what will be running through the mind, but it is not the best option to take,  one have to take courage and make sure not to quit to gain the purpose for that very project.

Crypto itself tells you what really life is.  Sometimes when you feels like everything is not okay when you woke up in the morning and thinking that your journey is kinda going down not as planned (Bearish). But crypto also tells you that life is not all about that, so you have to hold and while holding try to study and learn everything.  So when your time comes, i know you'll going to cherish everything when you're assets are all going up (Bullish). 

I've experienced a hard time before and thinking about quitting really comes to my mind but it was stopped when someone gives me a piece of advice. That I see it was very important to share with others, especially in a situation like this for this will divert our negative thinking to positive.  And we should have to open our minds and think that this is never our end. That is sometimes we need to refresh our minds as for this it helps to think positive despite the downsides happening. Talking to our family members and friends will somehow give us some light and helps what we gonna do next.

Failure should not put us on the finish line because it is not the right criteria when we want to be successful. Surely one must have a good fighting spirit to do something better to achieve his goals after experiencing failure.

Failure can be interpreted as the best teacher before we succeed in achieving a target, but what is clear is that we must understand enough not to fall into the same failure more than once.

I agree with you, pause for the purpose of introspection and move on once the mood improves. It's a great way to hit a target because that vacuum won't make us any better at anything.

I think the feeling of wanting to give up and do nothing must have hit everyone, especially those who have worked hard to get what they want. But the difference is people who have those feelings really give up and don't continue what they started but give up on everything. But some people seem to give up when they haven't really stopped doing and they just take a break before they continue.

What do you want to be? Number 1 or number 2? It's okay to pause and rest because we've tried too hard but never give up before we can get what we want. That applies to everyone and not just crypto.

As their is nothing like accidental success, you have too push your ass up, you do not need an extra motivation from anyone you want something you don't have? Then you have to do what you haven't done before.
I know this feeling (De Javu ) I can relate, I have failed sometimes from soccer, I get fvcked depressed but everyday I push my ass and work harder.
You have to push a little bit harder, but in Crypto when you fail you have to Chech mate yourself if you're doing the right thing,do your own research and don't rely on every little thing you see. Knowing one day you'll reach your desired Crypto goals.

Sometimes giving up is the key to victory for example if that project is a scam you need to give up and leave that project in order to be a good investor and avoid for getting scam. But if you have a n idea or assurance that after all the struggles you've encountered right now there's a victory in the end of the day giving up easily is not a good habit / not good choices.  You will not be successful if your mindset are lazy or full of doubt in what you are participating.

Giving up is not the best option to me. Giving up on anything that add values in life shows that the person is lazy and weak, it is better never to start than to start and give up and end. If one decide to give up on something it shouldn't be as a result of failure,  it will be nice to strive first to succeed,  then a decision can be made to quit.

Before embark on any business it requires your time to make a little research on that business, because time wasted cant be recover, but money wasted can be recover. What i am try to say, these forum has make it easy to locate the area or field you want participate at the end, you archived a good results by job well done, Secondly mentor-ship in every business is very important, than to do it alone, make friends in the area of the business your doing, see your self more colorful. Finally never give up, in every business there most be challenges to solved a problem, and more problem solved more money    

When you are dedicated you will achieve what you want in any aspect of your life no matter the hardship you go through just don't give up and keep trying again and again. I can see you want to understand crypto so much that you're bothered, it might only take a long time but you'll gain what you want if you don't give up. Everything in life have its own challenges but only successful people can attest to that. Success is never easy.

Never giving up is something that I have always believed in, when you try something and fail is not failure but when you get discourage to try again is failure, because when you try ft the second time you not starting from scratch because this time around you stating with a little bit of experience. So never give up in anything you do.

I have seen many people who has quit trading because of their failures but I want to tell you that if you quit, you will never get to the position that you want to be. I don't like to lose money, so i never really wanted to quit trading. However, I also had many losses, for example, I lost so much in 1 month trading I was in tears, almost gave up but I am glad that I didn't. When the streak was over, I was then able to watch the market, analyse the market and come out with my own strategies. What I learnt is that in the long run, the only way to achieve anything is to focus on the long run, the big picture.

Let's face it, trading is not an easy task but you know what? It is not just about making the right call in the right time, you have to learn to control yourself and your emotions. Trading is all about human psychology and there is always a factor of emotions involved in trading. You have to know when to come out of the trade and when to come back into the trade.

Giving up is not really a good idea, we all know that in life, things might not be going well which you will definitely want to give up but you don't have to give up. When I started cryptocurrency trading I lost a lot of money because I don't really have anybody to guide me, so I learn all my trading from tutorials on YouTube which I lost lots of money when I was practicing and I wanted to give up, but I was lucky I didn't give up and have made lot's of money from trading and I believe I will still make more.

if you fall then get up again. and learn not to fall again.
giving up will only make you sink into a dark sea of ​​despair. if it feels difficult then believe that in the world there are more difficult than you. then get back up and keep learning and learning. never stop walking even though sometimes you have to drag your feet and force them to move. because all successful people are those who have failed.

like my bitter experience when starting crypto which started with losses. but as time goes on and continues to learn. Now the losses can be covered with profits.

It is better to start from catch and learn from step to step. Don't be in haste to learn make sure you learn the necessary things. Getting it right take time and to be patient, you have to be focused and work harder then everything will be okay. You don't deserve to quit instead try again.

Persistence, trying over again and getting up when you fall are tools and viehcle to becoming successfu in life. For example take a look at the person that invented light bulb, it took him 1000 times to get a positive result, So what is that tell us, it tells us not to easily give up in what ever thing we're doing.

Bringing your topic to my experience when I got to know forex Trading new, The biggest challenge I faced was series of losses, most of my friends adviced me to quit trading because I blew every fund that gets into my account , but I decided not to quit and today I'm a profitable trader.

Sometimes too, we need to give ourselves some break, during the break period, you think and restrategize your moves, you never can tell, the may be something wrong with the steps you had choose to take.
Successful people aren't those who quit at a failed attempt, they're those who fall and rise up again better and stronger.


Stay strong fam♥️

Successful people, they have experienced failure in their life, from that failure a person can learn and change the procedures to do something to succeed, what they do does not escape the knowledge they have, the higher their knowledge the more confident in their efforts.

Crypto, too, study, analyze, predict and understand about the crypto we want, the results will be good, now information about crypto is easy to get on the internet, doing research is needed, both about exchanges and crypto types, the bottom line: never give up on doing, never make a second mistake, learn from mistakes, there are many opportunities you can do to start over again, the first failure is the key for you to be successful in the future, remember why other people can and why you can't.

Whatsoever thing you're doing and it's demanding from you but with little or no reward to show forth then i think you need to make a check and balance, its either you ain't doing it the right way or you aren't learning from from the cause to those mistakes leading to your failure performance, i think the best lesson you could give to yourself is in learning from people and not from your repeated mistakes.


If others are doing it right and getting the right result then you needed to understand that you're not doing what they are doing to deserve getting their type of result.

My advice for you:

I see there's this eagerness and willingness to doing things right and have better results in you, i will advise you to ultimately "learn first" keen to learning, don't just work on assumption, make personal research and findings and build up yourself, while about this forum your learning start from adhering strictly to the forum's rules and regulations, read them all and understand them, search through the forum for any areas you need more clarification, then never be in rush or too eager in making it through because growth is a gradual and continuous process, remember as important as water is to life, it can get one drown to lifeless.

Yeah, sometimes it is; especially if what keeps pulling one down can lead to one's death. You quit at that point. No one needs to prove a point by displaying to others that they aren't quitters while they die in silence. This is the part I believe that quitters can also be winners. Isn't it said that he who fights and runs away lives to fight another day?

Well, the best place for you OP to start getting yourself back together will be a place where you get to do what interests you. For me that would be watching comedy skits on social media. Business (cryptos inclusive) would be the last thing on my mind at a time like that. OP, do whatever tickles your fancy. If it's getting crypto knowledge, go for it. Watch videos bon cryptos on YouTube and that will help fire you up once again.

To me quitting is not an option, but when u continue falling and falling, my advice will be for you to quit.

But first thing first, when you fall at first did you actually know the reason and do a proper evaluation before trying again. Because without proper evaluation of the past, failure is inevitable.

Yeah, trying times come, that moment when we feel like shit and everything seem not to make sense to us, but we shouldn't be ignorant of the metrics we use in judging ourselves in moments like this, that everyone is doing well in something doesn't mean we are meant to do well in it, there are many potentials embedded in us that we can Identify and work on. On learning cryptocurrency, this forum is one of the useful tool at your disposal right now, there are wonderful individuals and resources here to help you out, just throw your ignorance and curiosity at the forum, you will be amazed at how many solutions you will find, but you need to be determined to learn, be enthusiastic, I'm a fellow newbie and I've started learning here, let's learn together mate!

Positive mindset is not about having a positive attitude in everything that you do. It is not about being happy all the time. It is about having mindset that will help you to stay focused, determined, and passionate about achieving what you want and make it happen.

So, having a positive mindset can help you to be focused in achieving what you have set out to do. It is the last and final step to achieve the goal and make it happen.

Hard time don't last long, hard time is a chance for one to be well equipped to continue the journey.  Hard times shouldn't be a time to give up but a time to be strong and pursue our goals. Hard time should never  be a limitations to success.

It's not unpopular to be honest as that is one of the harsh realities that everyone should really know or realize.
I did day trading back then watching some youtubers like CryptoJack to learn about the basic ropes of day trading (I am not sure if I really mentioned the name right as it was long time ago) and it just didn't work out for me even by hard work in a month.
Luck comes into play and it is not just all about hard work.

---

I also realize this when during my first few days in freelancing.

Having mindset like that will help you achieve your goal rather than when you failed and you already give up on what you are going to do. If I have already given up my goal before then I won't achieve what I have today. Having a negative mindset won't also help you to achieve your dream or goals if you are like that. Remember to listen fro other forum member when yheu criticize you or give you a tips which will help you in the future trust me. I have been in your shoes before. We all start from nothing untill we have what you will have later on.

Getting people to persevere and willing to try after failure is difficult. We can only give advice and encouragement, to want to try again it comes from ourselves, we just try to influence. The stronger they want to try it will be the better and they will be willing not to give up. To be honest we are easier to get in, but to survive not to fall is difficult, harder if it has fallen and will stand up again.

Giving up is not the right thing to do now. Giving up now will seem as if you never wanted to achieve your set out goals from onset. If you’re determined to achieve your goals, you’ll have cross all the hurdles that are blocking you from achieving what you want. This is not the right time to think about giving up, put your efforts into it and the result will be fruitful as you’ve pictured it to be before coming here. You’ll definitely enjoy your stay here, navigate through the forum and follow the rules and regulations here, most importantly ask questions if you don’t know what to do.

Very often, honestly. I was having that feeling many years ago, I was then thinking about quitting but yeah, we can do nothing if we just easily give up. We have to think also that not all our plans went successful, sometimes we face failure. Many are having this experience, I know.

But if we let this feeling drives us, it means that we just easily accept our failure which I believe was not the nature of being a successful person. Thriving hard makes things change, honestly, there is no easy success in business, and even finding a good job, really comes in a hard way.

Giving up!  sometimes good sometimes bad. If you failed cause you are not working smart/hard then giving up is not a best option. You should prove to everyone that you are strong. but like you said above giving up cause there's other big opportunities to the other side is a good choice we need to be practical if where you can get an opportunity then go there.

Hmm this got me thinking: I think this can be applied if there are other opportunities for you which is better; and you chose to shut every opportunity presented since you are still pushing your current failure.

You are right, though this may be applied in a "case-to-case" basis like you mentioned. But giving up may be the better choice if there are other opportunities presented to you which is relatively better.

There's a phrase that rings 24/7 in my head and it helps me alot to keep focused and continue whatever I'm doing knowing fully well, my turn will come. The phrase is very common but that shouldn't discourage you from believing in it. It goes like this, "there's light at the end of the tunnel", I so much believe in this that I tell myself if I haven't seen that light yet that means the tunnel still hasn't ended so I continue pushing through whatever I'm doing hoping to get to the end and see that light. Why I just told you this is because while others might just see this as another normal post, I don't. People are passing through difficulties in life and aren't getting a break.

Don't expect anybody to Cheer you up, do that yourself. Pick up yourself and go learn. Don't chase after the dollars first, go for the knowledge. Acquired as many as you can get your hands on and when the time is right, everything will fall in place for you that you won't believe the amount of grace you will be receiving. Some will call it luck because of the little effort they now see you putting in and getting great results but only you'll know the amount of time and dedication you have put in previously.

Firstly go get a real job, it's more comfortable investing in bitcoin when funds been used aren't urgent funds for day to day needs but spares that you won't go crazy losing. After securing a job steadily by into Bitcoin first (later you can experiment with alts), and keep learning.

Nah, I'm pretty sure a lot of people around the globe are doing really fine even without cryptocurrencies. You can still easily outperform asset markets in general without investing in cryptocurrencies since most people just end up losing money anyway.

Start with the very basic. Perhaps ask yourself the very fundamental questions like, what is currency, what is cryptography, what is Bitcoin, what is a Bitcoin wallet, and so on. You don't have to master those. Understanding the mere definition of very basic terms is a good start already. What won't go as planned if you are only trying to know the meaning of the most common words in crypto? Don't push yourself to make large strides. Start with baby steps.

The crypto journey does not all run smoothly, sometimes it is also full of failures and we have to accept it. Although it is not easy to accept and learn from failure, we cannot just give up. learn to be responsible for what has been started and face the risks that exist. to start something in the crypto world make sure you are ready and understand and have sufficient knowledge about crypto. if you want to start from altcoins then you can start little by little, there are also many good altcoins to buy and manage. so it's just how we choose crypto and how we manage the assets that  we own.

When I see fall and rise as I see it now in OP, it reminds me of babes, little babies. It's amazing how these clear minds summon up courage to always rise each time they fall in there bid to get there steps to walking just right. Consciously or not, they tend to understand that, they've got to rise and put in more effort until they get it just right.

There shouldn't be much of a difference when it comes to adults. Especially an adult with a need to learn a thing or trade. In this case, cryptocurrency and investing. I tell you, motivations and lots of speeches would make less meaning uo you and instead becomes just empty words of you don't act on them. You've got to retrace your step and correct your errors, see where you took a wrong turn and either make it right or learn from it and your win would be at hand. It gets easier as you go!

Learn to deal with your decision making pattern. Most persons makes decision to invest or trade based on the condition they find themselves at that moment without an understanding of what they are getting involved.

In as much as you would/may be advised to get a well grounded knowledge of how the crypto world works, don't put your hopes into making profits ASAP, cause actually expectation of immediate gratification in any business is what brings disappointments.

so learn to expect failure in most cases and capitalize on those failures. And bear in mind trading is not always a win win game.

We will stuck in a situation like this when we only expected the positive outcome of our decision but wise people have choices for the negative outcome as well so being prepared is the first ever solution to avoid this trap. For example if you are investing $1000 on crypto and expect 50% in a year which is certainly possible but also you have the chances of losing 70% of capital value as well so as an investor you need to hold by that time for that you need to assess your risk appetite.

This is a common mistake made by traders; they don't know when to stop trading and hope for the best; but, there comes a moment where you just have to give up; what brought Bob success may bring Alice disaster. I began trading in 2016 and soon realized I was becoming a liability to myself because I was not progressing at all, so I had to stop completely, no amount of motivation would bring me back. I always know when to halt.


You are right but that chances of making 100x is only possible with altcoins in a short period of time but then again the risk is way too high.

Keep falling and don't learn how to fix what's making you fall, you will remain in the same spot forever 

Let me take trading as an example. Someone learn, trade and lose. Learn the more, trade and lose the more. Months after months become years and the trader continue to lose. Then if such person stop, there should not be anything like learning again and restart, he should just quit and focus on less risky means of earning. I understood you though and you are not wrong but there are sometimes that you just have to quit.

It is like gambling if investing in altcoins which can become shitcoins or dead, it is not gambling if holding bitcoin. One of the main reasons to hold bitcoin is to be an hedge against inflation rather than having fiat in banks, especially in developing and underdeveloped countries, even developed countries are no left out because their local currencies still suffer declination, but even if the price of bitcoin decrease today, let us still expect all-time-high later.

One thing I've seen is that those with unlimited source of income prefer to hodl for longer periods of time than those with limited income; the best method to hodl assets for a long period of time is to forget you ever had them in the first place. Most new users only want to earn passive income.

BTW, James Howell is still seeking for his hard drive, which he threw away in 2013 that contains 7500BTC. Golden hand. Lol.


Edit

It's fine not to invest in cryptocurrencies, but it's wrong not to have cryptocurrency in this day and age. Investing in crypto is similar to gambling in that there are only two possible outcomes: it can make you rich or it can wreck your life.

It's okay OP. Just don't rush and take things easy. You'll get there eventually, there's no race for you to join just to get things know about crypto. Do it a little by little and you get to understand things that you have to gradually. With that feeling analogy that you've expressed, you just need to be motivated and all of us here started from where you are currently. But don't worry if you spend time, you'll see the progress that's about to happen to you while you study cryptocurrencies. And the best start is to buy bitcoin but if you can't for now, go start learning about wallets.

Know the basics of BTC first and learn from your mistakes as time goes on, is there anything in this world that comes easily? Mistakes will happen and its inevitable no matter what we know, That's why we have to keep standing up from every fall its the only way we can achieve our dreams.

Unpopular opinion: sometimes giving up is the answer.

Contrary to popular belief in cryptocurrency communities, you don't necessarily need to be in this industry to succeed in life. What if you're better off investing in traditional markets? What if climbing the corporate ladder is best for you? What if starting a business is the answer?

Immediately after reading op, it occurred to me that I have read something similar. When I saw your reply I smiled. Could it also be a mere coincidence?

Well, op you don't need to give up but you have to carefully reexamine what you have been doing and failing, this time do something different and right. You cannot keep doing same thing same way and expect a different result.

Pause!
Learn!
Restart!

In life nothing good comes easy, it a say and also a reality. I have come to meet so much people in life who have come to make it in life but with a lot of hard work. Some people make it in life without putting in a lot of work, but there are oy few people like that. Hard work definitely pays and also not giving up in what you believe in, it may take time but with prayers and work you will definitely be there. Everything takes time to yield.

It is not just about getting up, it is about learning from your mistakes otherwise if you get up and repeat the same mistake over and over then it is best to quit first time you "fell" otherwise you are just harming yourself.
Those "winners" are the ones who learn, for example when you buy a shitcoin because someone advertised it but they dumped it on you, then you have to learn from this and never repeat it.

OP, how many times have you fallen and gotten up? Why is this topic so cryptically described? Where did you fall? Why does it seem to me that I have already read this somewhere, and the topic is very familiar?
How many times have you left the forum, and what account do you have.
I won't say anything more, but even if it's not you, then read this thread, there you were given good advice. 

As much as I dislike Youtube, use it. Don't read the Bitcoin whitepaper quite yet if your completely new to the subject. It'll likely only scare you, or make you think you don't understand it. The thing is, the whitepaper is great to a certain extent, but not for non technical users. So, its much easier to have Bitcoin described or taught to you in layman terms, rather than jargon. While the whitepaper definitely isn't the worst, I'd recommend only reading it once you think you've got a basic understanding of Bitcoin itself. Once you do, it would probably be beneficial to either use Youtube or come here, and find out what each technical term means. A quick search would pretty much sort you out here, since its likely been asked many of times.

Yeah, however most new users aren't going to have the stomach to hold long term, unless they make it inconvenient enough for them to withdraw in times of turbulence, because as we know there's plenty of those times. Also, defining long term can be quite difficult.

The best way to go about crypto is to first know what bitcoin is and how it is the most decentralized, having limited supply that will make all-time-high achievable. Holding bitcoin is highly advisable.

Then you can study some altcoin, but always know that altcoins is like gambling, some can give you the return you are expecting, many will not and some will even take from you. Make most of your portfolio to be in bitcoin, if you gained from altcoins, nothing bad to convert the altcoin to bitcoin, but make more research yourself.

Some people are traders, some people can make profit from trading, but beginners will always lose, not advisable for newbies. Using the money you can afford to lose. But what you should really be thinking about trading and which you need to be careful about for you not to be a victim, is that a rich person today can trade and lose significantly.

Nothing better than holding, but this is long term.

There are times in life when everything will seem not working as planned, infact it will seem as if you are not doing anything at all, but in all sincerity, you are trying your best, it could be in education, business, career and so on. you will feel like giving up and just not do anything at all. those are just trying times and all you need do, is to get up and try again. even if you fail so many times, never give up and always remember, winners never quit.

I have rumbled on these lines through out today and it somehow coincides with my current predicament of not understanding a thing about crypto and don't just know how to start on the platform.

Any pointers on how to go about my crypto journey because, giving up just doesn't feel like the way.
