HODLing is like losing weight. Simple, but not easy.
Calories in / calories out
Buy bitcoin, withdraw into self-custody and hold.
I’ve tried every diet under the sun, and now I eat what I want as long as I manage my calories.
For Bitcoin, I’ve fortunately learnt from the best that there’s no better strategy than buying and holding. END OF STORY.

Passive action is the hardest action to take.
Often it is. In the case of exercise, now that does require something a little more active!
Yes but why are you exercising?
For cardio vascular resilience or to lose that spare tyre?
If it's to lose your spare tyre, you're better off doing a few more fork downs than another 5000 steps..
Vanity reasons. And because I don’t like feeling like a chubster. What are fork downs?
I'm trying to say that you can't out exercise a bad diet.
You're better off not eating that slice of pizza than trying to burn it off later.
Put the fork down 😂
Got ya! Abs are made in the kitchen, exercise is 20% max. Point remains that if you eat more than you burn, you put on weight.
Yup.
So 80% of weight loss for most people is just not eating & drinking the calories that they would otherwise. Day in, day out over a long period of time.
Passive action.
Very similar to getting ahead with Bitcoin. You've got to create a cash surplus (ie save) & you've got to do it consistently over time. Yes you can hustle to earn more but most people just need to stop wasting what they do get paid. You save this surplus in bitcoin consistently over time & eventually it starts accruing more value than your labour can.
Passive action is hard AF though.
People always want to fiddle & try to move into active action. They'll go for a 5 KM run to burn off more calories & then eat that half tub of icecream in the freezer. Their mind (ego) starts bargaining with them.
Just like the dudes that sell their bitcoin stack & buy MSTR, thinking they'll later be able to convert it back for more bitcoin.
Consistency always trumps intensity.
Strong analogy simple but powerful buy hold and stay the course
