It all started in 2014!
Before I came across #Bitcoin, I noticed a dissatisfaction within me. I secretly realized how I had become a victim of the system, running faster and faster on the hamster wheel to please others. True to the motto: If you've got something, you're something. Today I am ashamed of this lifestyle, because not only was I harming myself, but also people I loved. My morals and conscience became numb.
I only realized this feeling of dissatisfaction when I reached a very low point in my life. I guess you have to suffer to change your mindset.
I started to reflect on my life. Writing down things I wanted to change. Along the way, I came across Bitcoin in 2016, even though I had heard about it very early on, but this time everything was different because I was no longer in the bubble like before. I discovered the entrance of the Bitcoin Rabbithole.
Until 2018 Bearmarket, I only had a little bit of "play money" invested, but even though the price crashed, I dug deeper and deeper, because it seemed to me that those who held knew something I didn't know. YouTube videos and forum posts became books. Thanks to the German edition of the Bitcoin Standard, I understood more and the more I read, the more my doubts disappeared.
When I look back now and think about the difficult times, I'm glad that everything turned out the way it did. It shook me awake and made me steer my life in a new direction.
Bitcoin and all the plebs I met along the way gave me a mega boost. I was able to learn so much, close friendships were formed, there was a lot of laughter and yes, there were also emotional moments.
Today, I can say, I am super grateful for every experience and every person I met in my life.
Thank you all! 🧡
