Yes, it is true that perseverance is the mother of success. One of the toughest thing to do when it comes to crypto, is the ability to hold for long.
I had a discussion with a friend. We decided to hold our tokens, because we had fiat to fall back on peradventure there is any need for it.
Presently, it is a different story, we are now in need of fiat, but all the tokens we presently hold have dumped. If we sell now, we would sell at loss, but getting money without selling is quite difficult.
As a matter of fact, we are seriously deliberating on what to do, yet we kept on telling ourselves that "it's just for a while."
Perseverance is like a skill, you need to work for it since its tough thing to apply, since bitcoin is on the peak after 8months on low, Bitcoin Investors with great perseverance maybe enjoying right now, I think its hard to wait for that long, many things can happen on the course of 8months, things changes and our decision might as well.
Great timing and great funding can get you through it, you can do long term holdings without worrying.
I really wish that I'm financially stable and can sustain my own needs without thinking how much money I left, maybe I can earn much better.
