"During a Lifetime"

Brothers, hello everyone. I am trader Zhu Yidan. Recently, I saw a quote that said: "If during your lifetime you can't see yourself in your prime, then you've truly lived a wasted life."

I used to think that being in your prime meant wearing luxury watches, driving expensive cars, and wearing designer brands. Now I understand that these are just external displays. The true essence of being in your prime focuses on the words "yourself"—a strong physique, extraordinary courage, both physically and mentally.

This is a process from the outside in. When you lack those external possessions, you naturally feel as if you're missing something. Especially in this era of materialism, we are constantly bombarded with various consumerist ideas. But when you actually acquire these things, you'll find they aren't as wonderful as you imagined. Wearing luxury items, you're still just an ugly person; you've only become an appearance of wealth, an ugly person who seems rich. You might even feel that you're not only ugly but also a fool, paying the tax of IQ loss. Why are these things worth such a price?

Possession is the best way to dispel illusions. Therefore, this process is an essential mental journey. Without possession, there's no way to let go. It's hard to distinguish from the spirit of complacency. Once you see through this consumer trap, you'll value your physical and mental state more, and pursue change. Instead of chasing external material things, you'll focus on inner growth—living a healthier lifestyle, enriching your spiritual world through reading, and striving for a better version of yourself.

Recently, many people criticize the act of showing off cars and watches, believing it creates anxiety. I don't agree with this view. As long as it's genuine, I not only don't think it creates anxiety but also see it as giving hope to the crypto community. The "fools" who succeed in the crypto world can do it, so why can't you? What's the difference?

The prosperity of an industry is always driven by the wealth effect. Only then can continuous strength flow into the industry, bringing huge liquidity and vitality, creating upward mobility and the possibility of crossing social classes.

Of course, we must resist false persona packaging, which is often aimed at harvesting retail investors. Distinguishing truth from falsehood is difficult, and this requires your own sharp eyes!

Finally, I wish everyone, during their lifetime, to become the person they aspire to be!
