: buy at a low price sell at a high price.
: must hold strong, and do not sell it when the price drops.
All of these things are just fundamentals of how investors work but to become successful must accompany these things;
- Capital
- patience
- faith/trust
- positive mindset
- goal
It was not impossible to go far even beyond your expectation if you will carry all of these things and be consistent in doing this. Many people have tried but also many had failed because of being irresponsible. An absence of any of those things really has a huge impact on what we expected and could possibly lead to losses.
I want to pick up on two points my colleague posted
PATIENCE - This is key, to be able to understand that Bitcoin is not a "get rich quick scheme"
POSITIVE MINDSET - With a little knowledge and to understand the essentials of Bitcoin
it is easy to become positive, it's important to maintain a positive mindset.
IMO some of the essentials of Bitcoin are:
- Understanding the concept, what it was designed to do
- How it works, the role of mining, nodes and the security the network offers.
- Understanding what Bitcoin has to offer in terms of self custody as per Lucius' post earlier.
Some more basic knowledge to be a successful investor is understand the two terms:
FUD - fear uncertainty and doubt
FOMO - fear of missing out
