Please write down this acronym on a piece of paper and post it on a wall in front of your office. Even better, stick it on the ceiling, just above your bed, so it's the first thing you see every evening when you go to sleep and every morning when you wake up.

Get used to it.

Because, my friend, if you want to take this path, you will see a lot of this happening.

For the last few days, the entire crypto world took a serious hit and all the assets are losing double digits daily. We didn't have this daily double digit thing since, oh, yes, since we had daily double digits up, last yer in December, remember? And yet, some of us are feeling so overwhelmed and upset because the markets are behaving so erratically and the gains have been erased.

But, honestly, what would you expect? In which world do you live? Have you pinched yourself lately, just to prove to yourself you're not still dreaming? We live in a human realm. We live in a world in which what goes up, must come down (of course, the inverse is also just as true: what goes down must go up, but that's another story, one that just the most patient of us are going to hear).

I said it many times, and every YABBIC is a good opportunity for me to say it again: there is no better emotional training than owning crypto. There is no better way to train yourself to survive in Samsara than to watch the ongoing show of charts going up and down, of assets coming into life and then disappearing, mimicking the seasonal rotation of life.

In the autumn, last year, a new type of plant emerged: BCH. For a few months it seemed to grow up and form some sort of ecosystem around it. But now, just one year after we saw it coming to life - a noisy and rather strident apparition, I confess - we have to see it go, brutally split into two different plants: ABC and SV.

It's almost like watching those time lapse movies with blossoming flowers. They have some sort of strange, mesmerizing beauty, those movies, isn't it? Now, imagine that instead of flowers blooming, you will see crypto going up and down.

If you learn to detach from the outcome, you will start to enjoy the beauty of these transformations.

And that "learning to detach" is, in fact, a very simple rule: never invest more than you can afford to lose.
