Money or Mind ?

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,
it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness,
it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity,
it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness,
it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair,
we had everything before us, we had nothing before us,
we were all going directly to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way-in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its nosiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.

From A tale of two cities, Charles Dickens.

This is my favorite part in a tale of two cities and it seems like a poem. Dickens is so brilliant and a so great writer. I think almost everyone knows the first two sentences because they are easy to be remembered. I think the last part is still meaningful and worth to read and recite.

Above great writing from Dickens is very suitable to describe the situation of the world we live in. Dickens shared his mind with us and we resonate with him although he lived in the period of French revolution. It can’t be more suitable to express my mind and my feelings for these days.

These days I was tortured with anxiety and fear that I would miss the opportunity to gain amounts of money by the way of buying digital coin, especially when I see the rising price and so many people have already benefited from blockchain. I hardly stop thinking about the method to make me rich. However, I never understand why these faked coins can develop to be great industry. Even though I bought some coins and made some money from them, I know that is not my wisdom to achieve it.

At beginning, I followed the principle from Xiaolai, never invest in anything you don’t understand. The digital market was not so crazy and I did’t worry about that. Because everyone was the newbie except the super star in blockchain. That means we are in the same front line. At least, I think this issue like that at that moment. But only half a year, we had the tremendous gap. So the difference is not that simple and we are the different kind of people and obviously they are stronger than me. I just didn’t realize that once.

It is problem that I didn’t find the key point to create the gap. Although I think maybe because I didn’t have much money and wasn’t risky man, I know it is because of my consciousness. I just see the result and overlook the process.

I know that it is a mistake to follow the trend blindly and losing your target and attention is a bigger one. It is very dangerous to lose mind to follow the trend especially in investment. Great profit means huge greedy and finally leads to crazy behavior even commits a crime.

Investment is complicated and sometimes challenging human weakness. Remember that greedy is the greatest enemy.

Obviously, blockchain is an opportunity that can change our life completely. Even we Don't get money , we still have chance to change our lives in future.

Never forget to develop your core capacity and expend your horizon. If someday an opportunity is coming to you, please make sure that you are ready.
