During the 2022 market cycle, I was completely wiped out on LUNA. A debt of 300,000 weighed heavily on me, making me feel like the world was collapsing.

But two years have passed, and not only did I fill the pit, but I also built my own trading system. Someone asked me what my secret was. Honestly, I didn't find any "surefire rule." The turning point came from three fundamental cognitive upgrades.

First, I stopped obsessively predicting the market. I used to always try to catch the bottom, but the more I predicted, the more I lost. Now, my focus is on risk management—how to control position sizes, set stop-losses, and when to exit. With good defense, offense becomes meaningful.

Second, I gave up the illusion of quick wealth. I started genuinely spending time understanding on-chain data, fundamental logic, and market cycles. This process is slow but solid.

The most crucial point—don't always compare yourself to others. There will always be people in the market earning faster, but your plan is your plan. Focus on your own rhythm, and anxiety will naturally fade away.
