I was a noob when it comes to investing, if I can bring back the time, I will do it.
People always say that time is the most important thing, it is something that people who treasure their time cannot afford to lose. We can’t bring back the time when something already happened, it is what it is. Likewise, we cannot predict it. Although there are self-proclaimed people who say that they can predict the future, there are still imperfections and it is not exactly what will happen.
So, if you ask me what power I want to have, maybe I want to have the time stone so I can see and go back to the past.
Why exactly do I want this power? If there are times that I want to go back, I will go back to the time when I was about to buy shitcoins. I will do my best to stop myself from buying it so I won’t lose my investment.
I have been exposed to investing in cryptocurrency for almost two years now and hypothetically, I don’t have any profit. I had some profit before but I lost it immediately after buying another shitcoin and lost it again.
Furthermore, I also want to go back to the time when I was stupid enough to believe on the scammer. Before the year 2021 ended, in December, I invested in Axie Infinity — a play-to-earn game — and after a week of playing, I got scammed. I thought that person would buy my team but ended up not paying 3 Axies.
It was the worst decision that I ever had because I lost almost all of my hard-earned money for the whole year. It was the time when I couldn’t sleep immediately at night because of overthinking and regrets. Thanks to my friends who helped me to take it as a lesson and move forward.
On the other hand, I don’t want to change what happened to me during the past lockdown and quarantine years 2019–2021. I know that it was difficult. I saw people who left, I became anti-social, and I lost my interest in studying but there is something that I am grateful for. It opened my mind to reality. I got to work as a blogger, I became exposed to the cryptocurrency and writing community.
As a matter of fact, maybe if lockdown was not implemented, I am not writing this today. You see, writing is not my passion but I continued to pursue it. And now I don’t hate writing anymore. I realized how it opens a lot of opportunities.
But going back to my superpower, unlike the time stone from movies, this time stone can only see and tell the past and future to myself. I can tell myself that this investment will not work, someone will try to scam me, etc.
This will prevent ripple effects from sci-fi movies. Also not to ruin that much of my future. I want to make this superpower as normal, it also has a weakness. Even Superman has it, the kryptonite.
Nevertheless, even though I have the time stone, I think changing everything about my timeline will ruin my life. Yes, I can prevent bad things from happening, but how am I going to learn about life?
At some point, those mistakes that I experienced mean something. A thing that will make me realize what I have done wrong? It will open my mind about reality. And of course I will learn from it.
As they said, everything happens for a reason and perhaps, those bad experiences hurt me to learn. There’s a passage from the book The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck saying that failing is normal and it will give us a lesson.

Interesting take on this. I like how you are not bent on using the time stone to change EVERYTHING. Haha. I've seen a couple of time travel series and things usually get messed up when people change too many things.
The experience you had with a scammer is a sad one. I haven't been scammed directly, but I've seen many people lose their asset especially in Crypto due to scammers. I hope everything you lost in the past gets back to you in multiple folds as you dig deeper into the opportunities lined up for the future.
Thanks for sharing this on DreemPort
Hahaha changing everything could cause a chaos😂
I'm also manifesting to get back all the money that I lost. Thanks for motivation.

You're welcome @anonymous02, stay careful!
The bad decisions and experiences help shape us into what we are today. I think they make us stronger and help control our ego. Well done for recognising your mistakes and keeping go. That is wisdom.
Yes, that's why bad experiences are blessing in disguise for us to grow and learn.
Thank you for reading, mypathtofire!
@anonymous02,
It was such a pleasure to chat with you today, in The Terminal. This is indeed a powerful post, that makes us think about our actions. I have thought about having the ability to go back in time. What I would change... what I wouldn't change. But honestly? I believe that everything happens for a reason... good, and bad. So... I take each day as it comes! Learn from my mistakes (try to anyway lol) and use my lessons, to help others!! This is kind of a bit of the vibe I was trying to create when I made my #thoughtfuldailypost TAG and Community. Anyway... thank you again, for using my TAG. I better get back to it!!
Love and light!

@tipu curate
It was also a fun conversation with you! I didn't know that I will have a long talk on The Terminal.
That's why I just take my bad experiences as a lesson, I will not grow if I will only experience good things in life.
Thank you again!
