Lost Money, Gained Perspective: My Q1 Turnaround

as it was promised and hyped by the trump but little we know how disastrous it'd turn out in a matter of time.
Even those who supported trump are kind of hating him cause of the way he's acting like a pain in the you know where.
Anyways a bit of reflection to first quarter makes sense now so let's talk about how bad it was.
First Quarter of this year: Side Quests I did
The year started with a hope and dream of making it big in the first quarter since there was US elections and had my expectations way too high
Went on a side hustle, figured it out that wasn't worth it at all
Election pump turned out to be a dump and just going downhill ever since.
shouldn't have took screenshot
The biggest fumble I had in first quarter was that time when I took screenshot seeing PNL net positive and at ATH
Later that day met this relative who said dude you must be enjoying your alt season
And instead of selling I said I'll go all in and hold on to those coins with my life
Now those coins are down about 80% or more from it's ATH's
And trust me since the downtrend began I stopped looking at charts, haven't opened exchanges or wallet, not want to face the reality cause it's too worse
Realised it'd be better focusing on career
The only good decision I made in the first quarter is that moment when I realised I should stop wasting my time and all energy in crypto
Instead I should focus on building a future outside crypto by focusing on the career
I should have always treated crypto as a side hustle instead of full time thing but took me so long to realise it
And entire quarter I worked my ass off at the office and forgot about that I had a real life too
Cause my routine is all work and sleep, work and sleep, eat, write and interact on internet for a while
Expectations from this quarter

I'm hoping that the market will bounce back especially the coins I've been holding from all time highs should make a comeback otherwise I'm just gonna blame myself for another year
These last two days I've been giving interview in a new place and maybe from next week I'll be joining them
And in this quarter my aim is to do two full time jobs which my family think is impossible and insane like I should stick to only one
But I want to continue the one I've been doing that's at morning and the new one should be for night
9+9 hours shift is gonna be 18hours, 1 hour probably for travelling and 5 hour sleep seems more than enough
Just want to try it out and if it works than it's great otherwise will have to make some changes.
Wrapping Up...
In the end first quarter is gone and it's better we stay focused on the goals and improve in this one, repeating those old mistakes is never a good thing.
I'm quite tired of doing those mistakes so just dealing with the consequences of those actions now.
I hope you had an amazing first quarter and may this second be more amazing for all of us!

The beginning of each year is always blossom, but at the end of the first quarter, one would begin to see the good or bad aspect of it.
yea that's right.

this year I have been mostly focus and invested on Hive and havent change my long term goal, with vision to accumulate enough cash for next bear market since thats when investments make a difference, I have grown my account and seen some actual gains although not realizing any but staying focus for long term is what mostly works, no short term goals ✌️ 🤑
I'm trying to save some cash for bear market... way too difficult to utilise it properly cuz of inflation but yea focusing on long term growth.. always a good idea!
