# Purpose and motivation.

I have been in cryptocurrency for about two years now. I managed to see a lot of things in this simultaneously scary and beautiful place: I lost almost all my deposit, took a ride on the bull and bear markets, made some money (but not without losses).

All this certainly affects us. Consider that crypto is your second life. Why all this talk - if you want to stay here for a long time and earn a lot, be prepared to work unrealistically hard in the initial stages. You'll meet a lot of difficulties along the way, but if you don't stop, the results will make you very happy!

The most important thing is the goal - know where you're going and why. Without a clear goal, there's nothing to do. First find out your goal and only then start working hard to achieve it!

The second point is friends or a team. Alone here is the same as going through life alone. Find like-minded people and you'll see your progress grow tremendously.

I think those are the two main points on the psychology side. The rest you'll have to learn on your own - good luck)
