That's what I felt too when I was a newbie. I was rushing things and don't want to go with the slow but smooth way of learning something new whether it's related to bitcoin or a new skill. Currently, I'm also learning something new but I don't know if I'll be able to apply it in the future but I guess so. Learning a new skill is a good habit because we keep on improving and the economy that we are with is uncertain and unpredictable. So, to adapt with everything that's happening to the world, gaining and learning a new skill is one good counter while being on this market.
You're jumping from being skilled person to being an investor and that's a good combination where you might get more profit added to your investments.
