Topic: which choice is more painful.... - page 2. (Read 334 times)

Satisfaction is indeed something that wont really be able to fit out on a certain human being on which we know that there's no such thing about satisfaction and we will really be that liking to have that having even more or the peak profits or winnings that we could possibly have and this what makes us that pushes up to play outside our limits and this is something that must really be avoided in the first place. Simply move on and go forward and trying out to lessen up the risks on which the moment that you had experienced those mistakes and errors or simply missing out some opportunity then just simply move on and make yourself adjust accordingly. Pain is normal because we are dealing on something which is really that risky and we cant be winners or profitable all the  time on which its normal that we will really be that having those kind of aims but not all the time it will be that positive. This is where you must that making out adjustments accordingly so that you can move forward, because at the time that you do keep on minding on about on what you had missed or on what you have lost then you will be that basically that having no improvement or you cant think off well because you will really be that keeping on minding into the things that happened in the past. Simply move on and you wont be finding any issues because with those mistakes then you do eventually learn.

Always the decision that makes you lose in the end is more painful. It’s just a matter of self satisfaction to determine what’s most painful on this scenario. This is same to those guy that sell their holdings in good profit but the asset price they sold is just keep increasing after they sell that’s why they keep thinking about what if which is dumb thing to do.

So in this scenario, the 2nd option is just dealing with personal shit which is not really painful in reality while the first option is a straight up loss.

it is a choice to achieve the success we want, even though when starting it feels heavy with a long process it is a step that needs to be taken, there is no easy effort, all contain risks that will be faced, taking shortcuts does not necessarily achieve what we want and can worsen the situation in the future, starting a business from scratch must have its own challenges.

Every individual will have a different mindset, for me, I would say I would feel more bad for the first one because I won't get anything at all. If I play safe and at least get some profit, I would think that I have at least earned something and didn't waste both my time and my money for nothing. I know that generally, even the second option is also painful because you can't get the thought out of your mind that if you had taken the risk, you could make more from it, but if you at least made some profit, this can give you some relief.

These things usually happen in gambling or trading. When you buy an asset, it goes up a little bit, and you think that you might lose the profit that you have already gained in case it goes down again, so you go ahead and sell, but then you see that it goes up higher and then you regret your decision. However, I think it is still better than nothing. I would feel worse if I don't sell, and then it actually goes down, and I also lose my capital or a portion of it.

So, I think the first one will be more painful.

You should understand that if there's no venture there can be no success so inorder to be successful you need to take some amount of risks. You will risk with either your time or money, most time it's both, if you don't invest something there's no how you can gain. Every inventions that we're enjoying today started with trials and errors, if the geniuses were afraid of failing we won't have anything that makes life more meaningful today. Imagine if there is no electricity, internet, telecommunications, mechanized farming and countless things that we enjoy today, these are all made manifest by great minds that were not afraid of failures. It's important to note that taking calculated risks is important, we don't jump in front of a moving truck to test our strength, that'll be foolishness.

When it comes to taking risks in cryptocurrency what we need to understand is that DYOR is important because clearly there are many scam projects. Knowing reputable cryptocurrencies will save someone from investing in shitcoins. Having crypto knowledge is necessary for people that wants to invest in the industry, Bitcoin has built a solid reputation and it's trusted to put your money into it.

To succeed in life, one must take risks, the more risks one takes in life, the more success he has achieved in his life. All kinds of black and white methods exist in the minds of people, but for investment, we should keep one thing in mind and carry out investment activities. If you can apply a certain strategy or strategy that is not tested, it will change you to a new formation situation. Proper planning Human risk In many cases, making decisions and making decisions at the right time can be a very good aspect for your investment.

That particular phrase reminds me of my high school. Slowly but Surely is the motto of my high college and it has built that inner confidence and patience in us. I still remember our principal's favourite quotes "As long as the end result will be positive, continue doing it even if it takes forever". You have to be patient and take decision that would eventually yield good result than taking hasty choice that'll stop halfway.

From Op option, I see no reason to compare the two options in the first place. The first option is actually painful especially when assume you are taking a calculated risk and still end up losing. In the second option, I see greed at play there because it's only greedy people that normally regret not going extra harder if they end up winning in their first trial. Playing safe and get a little return will forever be better than taking risk and lose at the end. It's purely a gambling.

Calculated risk is the best choice. OP you are giving just two black / white choices, but there is whole spectrum between them. You could, for example, if the funds are in question, invest 50% safe and 50% in risky investment. The chooces are rarely black / white.

When the choice is to take a risk but ends in a loss then I would rather play a little safer.

Indeed, in the end when we want to take a situation and improve ourselves then surely it is inseparable from what is called risk but not all must be passed with risk because in some conditions we must try to control ourselves and play safer even though the results are not as big as when we take full risk.

I know that there will be some people who say that life is full of risks and we have to do that to get out of our comfort zone and to be able to know more that the risk is a good thing but on the other hand not everything can be done with risk because on some occasions we must be able to apply a slightly safer pattern so that we do not experience ongoing problems.

The second one will be more painful to me. In the first scenario where I lost from taking the risk, I can be comfortable with the fact that I did my best to make profits. Almost every successful investor took risks to make big returns. Seeing that I lost a golden opportunity because of fear will haunt me for many years each time I recall it. But taking risks and losing will remind me that I did what I was supposed to but it didn't turn out the way I had expected.

Tough choice indeed. Obviously, taking a risk and losing hurts, especially when you had some hope in something, but you might feel even worse if you play it too safe and find out later what you could have had. Most of people I know regret what they did not do rather than what did not work. A missed great opportunity can leave you thinking "what ifs," while a loss due to a gamble can make you more cautious next time. Everything is about your regret management, whether it is the loss of money or potential gains. Both options carry their difficulties, and it is all about finding what you can live with more comfortably in the long term.

It depends.  If it was money you had the ability to lose than not risking it might hurt.  But if it was your bill money and money you couldnt risk there is no harm missing out on those opportunities.  If all else is equal its just a risk management thing.  For me losing money is worse than the lost opportunity.  You live to see another day and another opportunity.  Im sure if you have been in crypto long enough you have been on both sides of the coin.

Option 1 make you feel fine since you would just accept those defeats because at least you try your best to gain. Unlike the option 2 where you might really get bothered for some thoughts that you can possibly earn a lot of profit, but you choose not to do it because you get afraid and just decide to play safe.

That feeling when having those regrets will haunt you, because its a missed opportunity. You will always remember it especially those asset will be hyped and see a good price growth that's why its really better for investor to step out on their comfort zone and try those things which they think can possibly give them a profit, but proper research is also important so that they would know if the program or altcoins they are joining is reliable and not those common scams.

Of course the first one because you took a risk and it ends up in a loss is not going to be much painful but regret of playing safe would always be with you once you realize that you could have made huge profit by taking that risk. In life most of us try to stay away from the risks and that's a realty, but we don't know that those risks might be helpful for us to make profits. However, despite knowing all those things we will try our best to avoid risks and stay safe, that's human nature. Only few lucky ones take risks and in end they make profit.

If you attach importance to business then two moments may come in your life because business requires you to take risks and after taking risks profit may come and loss may also come. There are some invisible risks in business or entrepreneurship that if you don't time it, you will face losses no matter how optimistic you are or how well you plan. Again in your case it would seem that if I could take risks in business then maybe I would have a chance to get profit but say business and say any work in life if you don't try to take risks you can never expect anything good.  If you make the right decision and act according to the plan, after taking the risk, in most cases there is profit or success.

I am I risk taker and I don't give up on something that I am positive about, but most importantly also I take time to build knowledge on anything that has to do with finances such as investments, I don't like jumping on whatever risks and opportunities that comes my way, I like to first understand the whole concept, but in general I like risk and hate playing safe, there is no safe zone for someone on a move you have to hit it at the right time and then move on, when you make profits you celebrate and when you lose you build experience.

Personally I will say option 2 is actually the most painful in life, there is usually this saying that you can never lose by taking that risk, well one can tell me that there are risk that leaves you with nothing and I say to them those are not calculated risk. Once something turns out to be very risky like the volatile crypto market the best is to calculate the risk and have a very good exit strategy that should you lose you will be able to have something you can fall back to and that’s why you see the warning of investing what you can afford to lose.

For me if you take option 1, you will have something to learn about but if you take option two and it most probably doesn’t go your way you will be back at option 1 again by coming back to risking it, this time around you have missed out on early adoption and you could lose more should the risk back fires

I will say both are a very bad schenerio that one will wish not to think of, or find himself. If I would chose one I will say number 1 is the most annoying part, seeing yourself taking risk and at last you end up losing. I have been in that situation and seen how it is, so I can boldly tell you the emotional trauma it can cause a person.

Well in my own opinion I think the most painful one is when you play safe probably after time you see that you would've made profit had it been you took the risk because is going to hurt you so deeply when you keep remembering it, let say for example you were opportune to invest in bitcoin in the early stage when bitcoin was still very much affordable but considering the risk that is involved in crypto investment then you decided not to invest in bitcoin. considering the current price of bitcoin now, what did you think will become of you? But had it been you utilize the opportunity that was given to you back then when the price of bitcoin was still very low at this point two things is involved. that's is either you lose or you gain, moreover when taken this risk you can decide to risk the amount that can be easily afforded. rather than playing safe but after time you see that you would've made profit had it been you utilize the opportunity, this is called medicine after death.

"Fortis Fortuna Adiuvat"

I always believe only someone who want to take risk can become something, if you always play safe, you will not going anywhere.

So, I think the second one is the most painful, regret doing something is better than regret without doing anything. Even you fail, you can learn from your mistake, while doing nothing, you will never learn.

Just like my experience, I choose to sell some of my Bitcoin to altcoins, it turns I'm in loss, but I learn from it.
