I'm starting to understand

I started buying BTC to save for a motorcycle. I make $19k a year and there's massive devaluation in my country, saving money never made sense for me, couldn't think of building something for the future in this situation.

In 231 days, I've invested nearly $4k (averaging $17/day), starting when BTC was at $17k. My wallet is currently at $3,500, down about $500.

I didn’t panic, but the anxiety made me realize I can't control the market timing. If I want to buy the bike without losing money then the bike will have to wait.

Today I realized I probably won't sell even if BTC goes high and I can get the motorcycle. After all the effort it took to buy monthly and stay patient, I don't like the idea. The motorcycle which was the final objective, feels now like a smaller thing. I want this to be something bigger.

I realized now that this will be a longer journey than I thought, I renewed my commitment to BTC by setting up a cold wallet today. I'm now enjoying the process of growing my coin, even if it's slow paced with the low income I have. I'm also inspired to get a better income and will be trying to apply for jobs outside my country to grow even more my coin.

All of this might sound corny, but for the first time in 28 years I feel like I'm doing something for my future. Thanks for reading!
