I agree. For me, it has been the most challenging thing I have ever done. It requires bravery and intense amount of willingness. I had to hit a rock bottom to seek it. And I am not talking religion. That's easy. Knowing thyself isn't. And for most of my life, I had no faith whatsoever. Now I feel the best I ever have, living my best life. But it hasn't been easy.
Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom. Mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power.
To know yourself, you have to be able to see yourself objectively. The “you” that knows yourself cannot be the same as the “self” that you know. If you can’t do this, you’re doomed to always just doing and feeling the stuff that you always did and felt. You can’t do anything about it if you’re always in it.

I kind of struggle with bitcoiners because they tend to think they know it all. It's my roll here to remind them that there is work to be done past knowing about the importance of Bitcoin. It's a tough job. Not many want to hear the lessons I am here to give.

I don't think anyone would understand even if you roar. They are all in the celebration mode.
The problem I see is Bitcoin isn't something that is open and available for all. There are still 90% or more people of all who can't understand it nit because they can't but it's still tough to apply.
It's a human behaviour that easier things are accepted very fast while harder things aren't.
We, I believe we are also Bitcoiners, have to look for answers why would everyone be using Bitcoin with so much technical knowledge required even to safekeeping it.
As money Bitcoin is definitely superior to me but as technology India's UPI system is much much better.

I don't even see celebrating much. I see people afraid here. Afraid of scammers and afraid of losing coins. I would like to see more gratitude. And I would like to see people be humble. There is a good reason we say, stay humble, stack sats.

I agree.
But there's a reason behind it. Safekeeping Bitcoin requires a lot of self-reliance which people are generally bad at.
Why I made a point about UPI being successful in India because it's not such a technology where when you don't remember the pin number or password you gonna lose money. Whereas Bitcoin is opposite to it.

What is UPI?
reply
Ahh! I must've told ya.
It's Unified Payment Interface through which we can send money to anyone in India without fees at any time.
It's touted as one of the best innovations in our times.
We just require our mobile number to link with UPI and with our bank and we're ready to pay. It's made in India and now more than 50 countries are using it.
Said it's better because it's easier to understand and run.

Sounds good and functional. But as a centrally controlled thing, it seems like a cdbc type thing right? You can see why Bitcoin is different?
