“It’s not about who’s the best, it’s about who’s left” A quick story about training mma and winning in Crypto long-term. I’ve been involved with various forms of combat sports for close to a decade. 4 years into it, I was ready to quit forever. My injuries were starting to add up, my growth plateaued, and an 18 year old hotshot was beating me (and my ego) after only a few months of training. I realized that talent was real, and that I wasn’t talented in this area. Hmm...maybe Yoga would be better for me, and I could meet some babes. At the end of class, my coach said something to that class that I'd never forget. “It’s not about who’s the best, it’s about who’s left” What did he mean by this? There’s always going to be people who are more talented than you. But talent comes and goes. What’s even rarer than talent is the guy who just keeps showing up. The person who’s consistent. The guy who eventually becomes the best is the one who keeps training. This meant prioritizing recovery. This means putting down your EGO and not going 100% against the new kid and risking injury. This means investing in a strength & conditioning protocol so you can keep training long-term. Right now I’m visiting my parents and stopped by my old mma gym. My coach is still there. The place still looks the same, although the gloves needs to be replaced. There’s a new generation of people I’ve never seen before. I’m not as fast or as strong as I used to be. But I kept training the past decade, and let’s just say I’m no longer the weakest at the gym. Everyone from my generation is gone. Most of the people I thought were super talented quit a long time ago, or never fully recovered from injuries. This story makes me think a lot about Crypto and survival. If you just keep showing up, you’ll get better. But that means you have to prioritize survival. In the gym that meant not over-training, not letting my ego get the best of me, and training in a way that was sustainable in the long-term. Developing a game that would age well instead of fancy, athletic based movements. What does this look like in Crypto? • Taking profits even though you’re bullish • Increasing your long-term BTC stash • Avoiding leverage and other ways that can “injure you” • Only playing when you have an advantage • Instead of burning out, figuring out a way to be in Crypto that's more sustainable. Researching 3 hours a day everyday vs 14 hrs a day and burning out every few weeks. • Being comfortable leaving money on the table. I’m going shopping this week for some tokens. I’m ok with not getting the perfect entry - I just want to make sure I have exposure. There’s a glorification of the guys who made it in one cycle. Extreme survivorship bias - you'll hear about that guy but not the thousands of people who went busto trying to do the same thing. You’ll make it if you’re one of the last guys standing.

When you feel sad looking at your portfolio = buy When you start screenshotting your portfolio = sell

The theme's to reset. You don't have a time machine so don't let the past burden you. Reset and give yourself a fresh start. You can't seize new opportunities if you're stuck in the past.

Don't anchor yourself to your peak net worth. Bros, that's like the 45 yr old divorced dad thinking he has the same value he did back in university.
