No time to check the market.

I have been so caught up in my daily crypto-hustle that I barely got time to check the charts and speculate. As a matter of fact, I don't even care what the market decides to do in the following weeks anyway. The space has been expanding at such a high pace that it is literally impossible not to miss out on some huge opportunities popping up out of nowhere all the time.

The struggle is real.

I've been building, stacking and holding for quite some time now, and it's been a blast so far. I am now getting a taste of what it feels like to watch it all snowball, and it's well worth it. I've got no regrets and will keep pushing forward.

I could have bagged some sweet cash gains over the last twelve months, but it's not what I'm looking to do. At least not yet.

2021 has been an amazing year for the crypto industry. New users are joining the space like there's no tomorrow, more and more capital is flowing in, countless amazing applications and tools are being produced as the days go by; this will inevitably lead to higher prices for some of the best projects in the space.

It may take some time, but it's definitely going to happen. There's so much value being generated online nowadays thanks to the blockchain tech revolution and the endless possibilities it has provided us with. It was never easier to generate income from the safety of your home, even if you're not willing to invest a single dime. Hell, it's now possible to earn by just watching videos, handing out free tips, listening to music, playing games, etc.

How long until the whole world notices?

This game is a marathon.

I've got plenty of patience and am not in a rush anyway. It's been a bull year and I have invested more than I have cashed out regardless. My fiat income streams provide me with more than enough to maintain my lifestyle, and even though most people have been looking to bag some profits and create stablecoin/fiat safety layers, I've taken a different approach. In it for the long haul, and building 24/7.

Of course I'm prepared for the worst case scenario anyway and do have my own stablecoin/fiat safety nets in place, but that's because I always prefer to play it safe; it's a matter of discipline. Deep down I'm very optimistic about the future of the industry, both short-term and long-term speaking.

I've seen my stakes on Hive and a bunch of layer-2 tokens grow significantly, which has enabled me to generate more passive income while having fun doing what I love to do. Learning has never been so profitable, so it has become some sort of addiction I cannot seem to be able to drop. I do get tempted to use small parts of my stakes in order to ride the waves and multiply them, but I have been so busy consuming content that I do not engage in this practice that often.

Developing healthy financial habits.

Staking, compounding and earning drips and dividends is my drug, and I have been adding to my positions throughout the year. Feels amazing to watch it all grow at an increasing rate, and I always measure my progress in crypto terms. USD and EUR values don't really matter as I'm not looking to trade my stakes for banknotes for the time being. I'd rather wait until I can pay for products and services using crypto instead.

We will get there soon enough. The world is changing rapidly.

Play to earn has been a rather profitable side-hustle as well, and even though it can be time-consuming, it sure is worth the effort. However, there are so many amazing projects in the works and about to launch in the following weeks that I want in, that I will have to find extra free time in order to be able to participate and make the most of the situation. The hunger for more is real, so I will find a way to get around this problem, hands down.

I love this kind of problems by the way.

In my humble point of view, consistency and persistence play a very important role in this business, and good things start to happen once you decide to just stick to the plan and let father time do its thing. The technology behind it all is revolutionary and has the potential to reshape the way we communicate value to each other and perform transactions on a global scale. Can't go unnoticed.

Showing up every day, staying in tune with the latest news and developments and filling your bags at a steady pace will take you far in this game. One step at a time. The longest journey starts with a small step after all, and you will be amazed at how things magically fall into place once you pick your priorities and set clear goals. Do your part, sit back, and watch the fireworks.

That sums it all up for now.
