if you didn’t end up where you wanted to be after the last bull run, there’s a silver lining which nobody can take away from you

there are few people who truly make it during their first bull run - it takes many strokes of luck to make it out alive on your first time

what's coming for you does not come easy.

whether you roundtripped or overtraded: every single trade, win & mistake contributed to building your intuition & the future you which does make it

whilst it's true that only some of us will make it, I believe 'some' is those who never gave up despite everything being stacked against them

godspeed, soldier.
