Sometimes you need to allow the people around you to hit the wall, take detours, and fall into pitfalls, because pain is the best teacher, and preaching is the most toxic hatred. People are all the same—they always resent those who treat them best and get close to those who deceive them. Why? Because people who treat you well love to speak the truth, and any truth is harsh to the ears! People who deceive you love to speak lies, and lies sound good, don't they? They coax and sweet-talk you. We exhaust ourselves trying to cram our insights into others, yet we forget that everyone awakens at different times. Only by becoming someone who has been through something can you understand what those who have been through it say. People can't teach people, but things can teach people in one lesson. What doesn't work in one lesson? Then it takes countless lessons. A crypto circle friend who has followed me for years just asked me how to completely break through the losing trap in trading. I didn't know how to answer at first! Because even if you tell him your proven method, he likely still won't get it. Why? Because your own method was ground out bit by bit from pain and suffering. If the person asking you just happens to have already gone through the process and only needs a point in the right direction from a master, then things will work out easily. This is called things flowing naturally, like adding wings to a tiger—like a martial arts master learning an even higher-level martial art, suddenly hitting a wall in understanding. At that moment, someone more powerful than you gives you some guidance, and you suddenly comprehend it. But if it's a beginner, even the best martial arts manual is like an alien language—no matter how skilled the teacher, they can't teach him. Going back to our earlier conversation, I later replied: Can you make only 10 trades in a month, but with an 80% win rate? He said that's impossible—what if those 10 trades also lose money? And then we stopped talking. I personally never believe that something you fail to do well today, you can do well tomorrow. I only believe in one saying: thinking about it is all problems, doing it is the answer. Crypto has been around for 17 years or so now. Looking back, it really has been remarkable. I've seen so many people exit with regret, lose everything, and also seen a small portion get rich and jump classes. Suddenly thinking back to when we were little, our parents often told us these things: you need to study hard, then when you grow up you won't have to work so hard. But back then we probably couldn't hear it—we'd play around, skip school when we felt like it, right? Our parents had experienced life's suffering, so they wanted us to avoid taking detours. But think about it—we took just as many detours. People can only speak the words appropriate for their current moment. It's impossible to comprehend things beyond your own knowledge, and it's impossible to earn money beyond your own understanding. About to head south to see the beautiful mountains and rivers of our homeland. Moved by feeling, I'm sending this to brothers and sisters who've liked me for a long time, and also to those who hate me: being hated by others is also a form of refining!
