Spent yesterday morning with a friend and leader in the “singularity” silicon valley crowd. He specifically wanted to deep dive my thesis and understand Bitcoin and the developing protocol stack ...
On really connecting the dots. ...
What helped for me:
1) Listen to as many interviews as possible from @Jeff Booth .
2) Read the books "Beyond Money" from @Daniella ✨ (thanks Jeff for the recommendation) & "A Lodging of Wayfaring Men" (thanks @Max for the recommendation). (There are many other great books and bitcoin writers!!, but these referenced here specifically helped me overcome step 3 and 4)
3) Stop hoping... I spent too long waiting for a Bitcoin price surge to rescue me from my fiat job, so I could finally dedicate myself to freedom tech projects.
4) Start "building" NOW. As I'm not a developer, I just started doing things. My first focus is on proofreading and translations of bitcoin tutorials, courses (with @Plan ₿ Network ) and documentaries. Contributing for sats gave me the greatest satisfaction in recent years, despite working full-time on a rather useless fiat job.
5) Unfollow accounts who focus too much on price, politics, trends, macro, negativity
6) Follow and zap the builders, believers and the doers.
protocol > asset
build for > fight against
Real joy comes when contributing to something you deeply believe in. Every day, a little joy compounds!
