Five years ago, when I had conflicts with my family, I always had the idea of running away from home. The result was mostly to independently stroll around and then return home in a dejected manner, looking very pathetic. There was no choice; if I truly didn't return, I would starve to death.
Now, although I don’t live with my family, occasionally there are still some conflicts, and I sometimes have thoughts of running away from 'home' during this rebellious period. The result is almost the same; if I don’t visit my parents for ten days or half a month, in the end, I still have to go back.
The past and the present seem as if nothing has ever changed.
Many people say that material abundance can solve 99% of life's troubles, and I agree; the rest is merely aging, illness, and death.
But when I calm down and reflect on the past, comparing it to now, that remaining 1% is more accurately described as not being understood.
For a long time, I thought being fully understood by others was a very lucky thing.
When I first entered the cryptocurrency circle, people around me thought I was 'not doing the right thing.' At that time, I really wanted the people around me to understand me. The money I saved was not spent on eating, drinking, and having fun, but to change my social class and to try and pay 'tuition.'
Find a job that pays at least a few thousand a month, and you won’t worry about food and warmth. On the contrary, after entering the cryptocurrency circle, I often lose money, and eating once a day has become the norm; going two days without a meal is not an exaggeration. The homeless in the 21st century are no better than this.
To this, I have no complaints, because the road is chosen by myself. The pressure that makes it hard to breathe is still the psychological aspect of not being understood. Physically, it's all minor issues; the migrant workers on construction sites are much harder than me. As a man of eight or nine feet tall, going hungry for a few meals is really nothing.
Moreover, it seems that there is a sense of 'pride' now, just like those so-called successful people who always love to talk about the hardships before their success, using this to express how hard their success was, indirectly highlighting their 'ability.' (Reading comprehension completed!)
So, day by day, I endured hardships. A lot happened during that time, but looking back now, it doesn’t seem that important.
At that time, I thought everyone only looked at money, not at people. As long as I achieved it and made money, I would be understood. But people grow through continuous whippings from reality.
Unlike at the beginning, the point at which I desire to be understood has changed.
Before, I hoped the people around me would understand what I was doing, but later, I hoped they would understand that what I have is not easily obtained.
To put it simply, I hope the people around me understand that my money didn’t just fall from the sky. I can say it is, but you all can't really treat it as such.
However, reality slapped me in the face. I was lucky in speculation, and if they were in my place, they could do it too. People are all the same; they may not care how outsiders speak, but when the people close to me say this, it's really quite helpless. To add, veterans in the circle should not think this way.
It should have been last June when my 'ex-wife' contacted me once. At that time, I casually mentioned something on DingTalk. She knew about my general financial situation. Then I met her once, not alone, but with mutual friends. We had a meal, and towards the end, her brother came to pick her up, along with a friend of her brother. During the meal, we chatted for a while, and of course, I was mentioned, and the cryptocurrency circle was brought up.
Initially, her brother asked how much I bought and made, and my answer was the same as to relatives and friends: not much, just lucky.
Then her brother's friend should have also heard about Bitcoin, and he joined the chat with a very understanding attitude, which is actually the same as how outsiders perceive the cryptocurrency circle now. While saying how bad the cryptocurrency circle is, he also said that those who buy Bitcoin all became rich, and it’s really just good luck; buying it can lead to wealth. I could only 'agree.' It’s not that I’m being pretentious, but at that time, I looked at him as if he was a fool. Besides, I’m not making profits from Bitcoin, but from uni and sol.
Of course, there was also the inevitable 'guiding'. My answer was still the same as the one for relatives and friends: just lucky, but this is like stocks; I just happened to catch a good opportunity, which is something you can’t force. Then the other party said to call them next time, and I could only pretend to agree. Sometimes I can't understand these people's thought processes; I swear it’s all just luck, yet they want me to guide them. Oddities are everywhere.
Afterwards, I added her brother on WeChat. He sent me messages, and I replied perfunctorily. After that, I didn't reply anymore.
Up to now, after a year. My mindset has also changed quite a bit, so let's start the main text.
In one sentence, do not beg to be understood by this or that; living like that is exhausting.
In fact, thinking about it the other way around, if everyone understood what you did, then there would be no differences between people, and there would be no class distinctions.
And do not always intentionally talk about how difficult it was for you in the past. These are all a necessary path to achieving a certain state of mind; no one will walk a smooth path to success!
Stop. It seems to have gotten a bit off track; this kind of motivational speech shouldn't appear here...
In fact... hearing some words from others and feeling them oneself is completely two different things.
For example, the few sentences of 'motivational speech' above, if it were in the past, would sound exceptionally dull and boring. But now, when you ask me to describe this change in mindset, these are the words that come to mind.
Yes, do not desire to be understood; that is immature. You don't have to prove your worth through the difficulties of the road to success. Everyone has their struggles; you are not special.
In fact, there are many people in the circle now who like to talk about their stories before they turned their lives around, and nine out of ten times, it is not without the word 'miserable.'
Including myself, last year, I often shared my past. The reason is mainly the above, which is one aspect.
Suffering is not worth celebrating, nor should it be used to prove one’s struggles.
The only meaning of suffering, in my opinion, is to remind oneself to be cautious in peaceful times, to not forget one’s original intention, and that’s all.
Be cautious in times of peace. In 2022, I formulated an investment plan, capping my investment in cryptocurrency at a certain percentage of total funds. Whenever I am stuck or at a loss and want to go all in, I unconsciously think about what it’s like to be broke. Strangely, once I think of these things, I can control my impulses.
As for not forgetting one’s original intention, that’s even easier to understand. Entering the cryptocurrency circle is not just to earn money for eating, drinking, and gambling, but to enable the people around me to live better. Of course, these two do not conflict; while improving my family’s living conditions, I can also do as I please. However, I personally am quite 'superstitious,' so my private life is actually quite normal.
In the end, I still need to summarize.
Do not desire to be understood by anyone, especially in the cryptocurrency circle. Also, do not complain about this; everything is a necessary process. Secondly, if you are lucky enough to turn things around, do not indulge yourself too much. Face the future with the mindset of 'when my life is glorified, I often think of loneliness.'
These days, I am preparing for the layout of the divine single that is about to start!!!
It's quite simple to double it.
At the same time, I am also preparing to find some potential coins to hold until the end of the year.
An expected growth space of more than ten times is not a problem.
