Around my eighth year in bitcoin the price was horrible and I was feeling the emotions and pressure very strongly.
I told myself “you said you’d Hodl for 10 years when you first bought bitcoin and it hasn’t been 10 years yet”
So I had to Hodl for at least another two years.
When the 10 year mark came I reassessed and told myself I’d be holding for another 10 years.
That was 2 years ago.
So still 8 more years to go before I reassess again.
These little mind hacks work extraordinarily well.
I recommend employing them to counteract your emotions.
