Set a goal and follow a strategy. I think these are key words for any newcomer who wants to start their adventure in the cryptocurrency world, without them, you'll just have nothing to work towards to.
Set goals that will discipline you in your crypto activities and ginger you toward success in it.
It's also important to know now to manage yourself in that road towards success. For starters, preparing yourself for certain situations by getting to know how the crypto market works, it's also important to not give in to emotions when things go south or when things look too good to be true. I've seen many newbies give in to FOMO when prices go up, and also newbies dumping their coins whenever prices go down for a brief moment, so preparing yourself on a emotional level before jumping into the market will be key in the long run.
