Give all before death

Quote from: FirmWars on February 28, 2023, 10:26:11 AM

I spent five years away from friends and family, because whenever I bring up how crypto can be life-changing they always discourage me, maybe because I lost some money to few trades and I was not that good at trading at the time, I got mad one day and I left the city and move to another city, because they won't let me be and they felt I will waste my life away.

You took the right decision to leave the city because they would have really discouraged you to abandon what you so much believed in. To avoid a confrontation that might lead to an argument or even fighting, it is better to walk away. Most families will feel the same way because they expect you to get a job and raise a family but they are disappointed because you are always in front of a computer or phone and you are also losing money. They might think you are wasting your time and money.

Quote

Today, I now own a home and a nice ride, I was able to get married and settle down, but now they feel like they made a huge mistake for not listening to me. I believe this was the best decision I've ever made, I was able to gathered some BTC in 2019 to 2020 bear market and also with the help of my trading skills.

You are very fortunate to benefit from your bitcoin trading or investment. Some other unlucky people lost their money investing in Bitcoin. And you also maximized your profit by using it to settle your basic needs, that's commendable.

Quote

I don't know why and now they are asking for my help, I have to do it since they are my family, and even my friends are asking for help, would you help your discouraging friends if you are in my shoe? They were my friends, but not anymore, I believe friends should be supportive of each other, am I wrong.

If you have the means to assist them, please don't hesitate to do it. It is not everybody that will accept your business idea because they might have another perspective on your business idea. It is not everyone that understands the bitcoin sector. Some people believe it is a scam so they will speak to you based on their level of understanding.

Quote

If you are a crypto newbie, make sure you set your mind on your goals, and do not be discouraged by anyone, people can't see the future, we are not gods or demigods who can read the future, do not listen to any naysayers.

It is not bad to get advice from people. But you should ensure that they are knowledgeable about the area they are advising you on. It is also important to do your research before taking any business or investment decision.

Actually you will not being discouraged if don’t tell them what you are doing. You don’t have any obligations to encourage them on what you are doing because it’s your own decision and you discover it by yourself so why will you being affected by others that doesn’t have any experience on it. Most of the non crypto user that discouraging is simply just afraid on the risk and being left behind that’s why they are dragging down others to not do the risky investment so that they will be the same in the end.

Crypto is anonymous, I myself trading and investing in crypto for more than 5 years without noticing by my family. I don’t talk to them about crypto investment so my life is very peaceful without any judgement from them.

At times, to be successful in life, a man just has to leave his place of comfort zone, and I'm happy O.P never gave up on his trust in Bitcoin being the new gold and potential currency for the future, because at times what constitutes to 50% of a man's success are a bunch of positive vibes he gets from people around him, of which home was doing more harm than good.

Quote

And even my friends are asking for help, would you help your discouraging friends if you are in my shoe? They were my friends, but not anymore, I believe friends should be supportive of each other, am I wrong?

A tree can never make a forest, that's why in this life quality friendship is very important, and as such, if im in your shoe, I will never stop bringing opportunities that might help them in the future, but if they fail to key into it, they are to be blame and not me. Why I will let my friends know that Bitcoin has come to stay, and as such the best investment for the future, that can be accumulated bit by bit.

All their families want their closest people to be successful in the future, so I think what they have done to you before is a natural thing, especially at that time bitcoin was not very popular so it made your family worry what if you will lose everything investing with bitcoin but the great thing is that now you have proven yourself to them that the choice you choose can make your life better. From your story it can be concluded that we must always convince ourselves of whatever choices we have made even though sometimes these choices are taken for granted by others.

Because you got a house and a nice ride. People tend to believe one if there is a result that they are seeing. Some of them hesitant cause they are still at doubt during the time they are being informed of it but now that they see you with achievements that you have made. The reality speaks when they asked you again for help. Also help them, its not that they throw you out before but even so still help them with all you can do especially they are still your family. Resentment isnt something good ones feeling.

I could remembered countless times I have been stopped not to hold my phone or sit with my laptop because they thought I was doing internet fraudster called "Yahoo" everyone was against me even my uncle whom I thought is knowledgeable enough to understand my situation was as well against me because he doesn't understand bitcoin and cryptocurrency. After a little break through from some of my investment I had to open my system and show them what I was doing all these while, today they supports me and even if I am with my system or phone bending down doing my business they don't stress me anymore because they have seen the results and the truth.

I will suggest you also explain to them as well.

I have experienced something similar to what you get. Even my father told me to find a more promising job to earn income. But I still insist on trying what I want first, especially from the internet, because opportunities to earn or make money are possible. And after I did it, I gave gifts to my mom and dad and said this is what I did and it's not much because I'm still a beginner and need to learn more.

Finally, they support what I do because they see progress in what I do. At that time, I only dreamed of being independent and having an income and even though I knew it would be hard to get there, but I still tried.

People may not believe in your dreams but as for you who knows what you are doing, you don't need to be discouraged with whatever they are saying. Always be focused on your goals and achievement whenever it has come to reality they will be the ones to call you again for help and assistance. One thing you must know is that anyone who sees you with laptop may not understand the kind of job you are doing, many may take you for fraudster who always seat at home scamming people, so it's better to stay away from people, hide yourself and focused your business.

Lastly, you need to help them because they are your family and friends, right now what I expected you to do is to explain your business to them so that they will understand you more better.

Forget other people and stick to your dreams. If you believe you can achieve your dream, keep doing it and don't give up even though the situation may be difficult. Only those who can strive beyond others will succeed and achieve their desired success, while others will only stop halfway and despair. Just let other people think it's impossible to do and that they might underestimate what you do because they don't know how to do it. And I agree to help your family and close friends, especially those who want to know how you work and can make money.

Goodnight, ohh Leo!!! 🦅

... having a positive mindset towards anything you do is very imperative. Do you know that alot may have started just the same time when you did, but were not able to get to your position today.. sometimes, even for the fact that they invested more than you did???
What are we talking about here again?? The consistency.... That was what you got -- enough that you weren't able to quit the idea and listen to your family and friends.. secondly, you got the insight they didn't...
Thirdly, you embraced the insight and tried it out, it worked for you... They didn't even believe, talk more of joining you.
On the other hand, helping anyone in life is one's choice.

The thing that makes humans to propagate in life is determination not exaggeration, so I believe that determination and observation will make you to achieve your objectives, while some people lose focus is when they have nothing especially no positive agenda, using this community as point of illustration, when you are not determined you will not be able to grow in the community of bitcointalk, so once you have positive plans of yourself what you need only is to ensures you dreams come to pass through your draft and executed with a determination

If you are a crypto newbie, make sure you set your mind on your goals, do not be discouraged by anyone, people can't see the future, we are not gods or demigods who can read the future, do not listen to any naysayers.

This was a very smart move you made as at then,some friends who see that you may eventually get rich from what you are doing might just intentionally want to discourage you so that you won't be above them financially.Life is all about choice,and only those who have decided to take a strong decision on the goal will definitely get the desired result from life.The most important thing I saw in your post Op is that you believed in what you were doing,you believed it will definitely pay you someday,that was why you stigged to it despite the way they discouraged you from doing it.I have learnt from this your story today,and it's also a message to newbies to also stig to what ever they believe in nomtter what people say about it.

Don't get discouraged even if the people closest to you never support what you do. To reach the point of success requires patience, nothing can be achieved without struggle. When starting a career to change lives, you are nobody in the eyes of friends and family, you have to prove to them that what you are doing now can change lives for the future.

Failure is a process, you will learn a lot from failure. You have to be able to go through everything that makes you want to give up, strong determination will allow you to achieve success. Prove to them that you can still be successful even without their support, if necessary teach them to get to know crypto better and direct them to do something that can benefit them.

Your story is emotional and heartbreaking but the good thing about it is that you overcome and succeed at the end. Do not say they are not longer your friend, they are still your friend no matter what happened in the past. You should understand that they actually want the best for you unknowingly to them that giving up is not the perfect way when things goes opposite.

They've no idea what crypto was as at then and from your story, you said perhaps it was due to the fact that you are lost some money in trading that's the reason for their discouragement. You can see that it was knowledge of crypto they lacked and they don't want you to lose more.

To me, they're supportive friends in a wrong way and this is a perfect time for you to carry them through the crypto world and teach them how it works. Remember that givers never lack and for that I will advice you to continue offering them a helping hand when needed. Regardless, you can not live in isolation but within the associate of friends.

On your story, you said, you were able to get married and settled down that's good 👍. If not for the help of your parents you wouldn't have gotten married by now and you will still be single and again your parents are your everything nothing but them, they were always for you in your times of needs but not until you left your parents house. As for your friends they are the best for you, if you don't help them now you can never help them again, no matter what they say it was just a subjection and that was left for you to decide on what to do, but thanks to God you made the right decision so now help teach or tell your friends about cryptocurrency as for your families help them because in the life of every man there is always a time wbr we all shall make a decision.

I can't really hold them responsible for their lack of support for you because they might be ignorance of cryptocurrency industry, and given that you mentioned that you lost some money in trading at the time, it's possible that they might be reason that lead to discouragement because they don't want you to lose too much money. Do you know that a lot of people have lost a significant amount of money in online investing because they didn't have someone to advice them in initial stage.

However, I am aware that when you are knowledgeable about what you are doing, you should never give up, regardless of the challenges you face. I think this gives you more courage to leave your family and friends.

We should only remain adamant on what we have good knowledge about and trust.we also try and listen to some advise some time if not the person may end in nothing after he/she may refuses to listen to any advise,the both have is advantages and disadvantages.

You knew what you have been doing from the start and you believed in yourself and you believed in what you have been doing, its so unfortunate they didn’t believe in you and even though they don’t believe in what you are doing all they could have done is to show concern because you are their family and friend. They failed you when you needed them most but then i feel they did it all because of the love they have for you, they mean well thats why did didn’t want you to keep wasting time at least thats what they thought.
No matter what they are all you’ve got and your family will always be your family so just forgive them and let it all slide am sure they are also having regrets and don’t hesitate to assist them in anyway you can.

After what they did to you, I understand how you felt and how much you were hurt. However, you must comprehend that they were also attempting to steer you in the right direction. The only reason their advice did not work is that they do not know better than you. I will still assist them if they ask, particularly if it is from family if you have more than enough. We must make an effort to forget someone who has undervalued or denigrated us for our own benefit, even though it is difficult to forgive them. It is detrimental to our growth to harbor feelings of resentment toward someone who has harmed us. You were successful and have a compelling story. Now demonstrate to them that you are also adept at handling the past.

Exactly, this things happen in almost every household, let it slide and embrace them with warm heart. I will assist them and forgive them if I was to be in your shoes because we don't know what the future holds.

Even though they have made me sad, I will still help them if they ask for help, especially if it is family.
It's not easy to forgive someone who has underestimated or belittled us, but we must try to forget it for our own good.
It's not good to hold grudges against someone who has hurt us because it will hinder us from growing better.
We must have a goal in investing in crypto so that we can find a way that we can use to achieve that goal.

I'm going through this. To be honest, my economy is getting so much better by investing in bitcoin, and now I'm belittling the people who used to belittle and criticize me for not making money and wasting time investing in bitcoin. Many times when I sit alone and think back, I find myself making the same mistakes as they did in the past. But when I saw them, I recalled the words they threw at me, I was really angry and didn't want to share bitcoins with my loved ones. I still can't get rid of my hatred to help them.

People who can use bitcoin properly will feel the benefits of bitcoin for them and I also feel like you.
It will be good nostalgia for us when we remember our struggles in our early days considering making money from crypto.
But you should try to eliminate your hatred for them because they know nothing about bitcoin and belittle what you do.
They will see the joy you feel after you can change your life for the better and can achieve all the goals you want.
Let's achieve that goal together and live a better life using crypto.

Setting of your whole mind and full focus on your goal is one step ahead in achieving your goal. It is a personal thing.
Since goals are personal, you dont regard any discouragement from loved once. Either friends or your family. People around you will or might not understand your point of view when you tell them about what you want to invest on, so is will so hard for your to have their full support. So all you need to do is to stay focused on your set goal if you must achieve it. Regardless of any discouragement from your family and friends, you should help them when the investment start profiting you.
