You’re writing your own fate with that statement/mantra.

You just had a clear path laid out in front of you. Based on your response, you have chosen a disempowering alternative.

You actually have the option of taking less than 10% of the funds in your Hive Power (or whatever’s on Steem), educating yourself on why the presented path is valid one, and stepping upon it with zero out-of-pocket cost.

Meanwhile, you have chosen to PUT YOURSELF on “the trailing edge” based on habitual emotion and delegate responsibility to “hope” for a future you are keeping yourself from based on old, shitty beliefs.

Dead serious.

It’s your choice whether to keep on that track or take a turn at this - or any other - crossroads.

If it had been anything but Ripple I would probably believe you! 😀 I am actually pretty hopeful that 2017 was just a blip and the bigger movement is yet to come. That is why I have been investing in some crypto projects that I see with a lot of potential. It's all a gamble of course, but I hope it pays off.

Your beliefs blind you.

And there’s a big difference between “gambling” and making informed investments based on solid fundamentals.
