      I have “Stay the Course” written on the whiteboard in my office and I look at it whenever I make any market-related decisions. This is far from the only example, but it’s what caused me not to sell out of my bitcoin holdings this past summer. Instead I stayed the course and now it’s worth enough that I could just buy a brand new Mercedes or something outright if I wanted to, but I wouldn’t do something that stupid with it. The craziest I’ve gotten is finally convincing myself that $128 dollars wasn’t too much to pay for a pair of joggers and I paid for some renovations my parents had been wanting to make to their home.

    Rudy my husband and I wanted to say thank you so much for taking time from your busy schedule to share this amazing experience you have gone through. Your way ahead of your time. We ran into your channel in October of 2020. Imagine being 53 and trying to start what it is you need to do or what is your calling..🤔😞 we started looking into FAB and fell in love with the game. We started our small collection and it fells so good. The money is nothing compared to the fun and ride of learning something new and exciting. Sending you and your loved ones much love. Hopefully this year we can all spread positivity instead of negativity. ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏

    • @Volkbrecht
      @Volkbrecht 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Actually you can get by on 6 hours for a while. Sleep happens in cycles of approx. 2 hours. If you wake up after 3 of those, you will still feel fairly well rested and get through the day allright. Also, it largely depends on what it is that you do. Lack of sleep kills your ability to concentrate, to spend energy on cerebral pursuits. As a craftsman, who's up on his feet a lot and working physically, you might not even notice that you're sleep-deprived while you're tinkering away. But sit down to do some work planning or project calculations, and you may notice that you find that rather hard, that you're quickly getting tired even though you felt fit a minute ago.
      Plus there are really people out there who are just weird mutants, who don't need much sleep. Not a lot, but medicine knows them.

    I hate how social media has changed everything while having no value in its current state. Instead of being used to keep people connected and informed in a meaningful way its all about trashing others for fake points that don't matter. Since hard working, responsible, people stay away from the platform its really just the lowest performers in society being emotional at each other all day and that becomes the expectation for life.

      It's not about social media bit it's about which social media you watch and how your brain digest it. Watching Rudy or reversed investments is social media as well and in my opinion is positive unless you have learning problems and hate people like Rudy because he is rich and you are not he would be like most people if he did not used his education and creditcard leverage to operate on a certain scale, he took a huge risk and it doesn't matter in hindsight it could have resulted in a massive loss no matter how good your decision is because there are always outside factors that you cannot predict nor influence. Example if you truly believe and understand apple in 2011 and know that even without Steve Jobs would be selling iPhones you could have made some money buying apple stock for 11$ each, if you had this knowledge and can leverage 1.000.000$ and buy apple stock for 11$ you you would have profit several 10ns of million dollars. And all of a sudden where you would have normally made 400.000$and be very happy now you made 40.000.000$ and you are 4% in the billionaire club.

    I wish this would get more view than it will, just so Rudy would make more. I'm going to watch this so many times this year.

    My profession requires me to be on the phone and constantly talk.
    I have time each day for that and then for tasks that require concentration I turn my phone off for 30mins intervals. I have kids so I have to check my phone every 30mins. Turn OFF notifications! They are the bane of your existence. Most people schedule their calendar in hour blocks. Try switching this to 20 min blocks. This can help immensely with repetitive tasks. Instead of 8 - 12 work hours per day. You have 24 - 36, 20min work blocks which really helped me. Thinking in mins helped me focus more as well.
    I am self-employed and eat what I kill so if your life is very different this may not be as helpful.

    Rudy, you and I my friend are similar. I don’t like going on social media for all the drama and negativity. Social media has destroyed so many lives because of others and it’s just not worth my time because we only live once and I try to live my life with positivity if I can. Hope all is well and can’t wait for the Kaldheim videos!

    All moist taco giggities aside Rudy, thank you so much for this video. It's not even the content of your answers that gives me hope and makes me happy: it's the fact that you're brave enough to show your doubts and uncertainties so that all of us can acknowledge our own doubts and uncertainties yet no longer be held hostage by them, but learn to accept them as part of life and thereby overcome the restrictions we impose on ourselves because of them. That was some good honest heart-to-heart talk my dude, from one 36yo to another ;)

    I work in a highly technical field and this is often what I have to explain to the people I work for. Once you get to a reasonably advanced level, things are so complex that few things of value can be achieved without focus. And focus means only paying attention to the task at hand, so much that I won't have time to help you with "X", and that "Y" will have to be done tomorrow (not today), and "Z" isn't something I have time to worry about. The good managers listen, and the horrible ones try to micromanage every little thing, meaning that no one can focus and any technical work of value ends up being done poorly if at all.

    I cried watching this video. It really felt like it spoke to me and knew what it was doing. I was sitting down and playing a game and just realized wtf am I doing mining diamonds and killing animals in a virtual world. While the day before I bought a box of onslaught and a few reserved list cards because I love the nostalgia and art. Where I am getting at is the time wasted even making this comment on a video that you may not even see is just time that can be used to prepare my future. I wish you would make more videos like this Rudy and if you don't my passion for magic and the future for myself will still be here waiting. -From the Timmy

    @hamsandwich284 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks man, this has really got the idea spining in my head of what I want to do with my life. Got me thinking of whether or not what I'm doing is my passion or not, going to think on it and maybe try some ideas out that I have disregarded feeling I don't have the time of day for them, got to stop making excuses and just try things out and see where it takes me and if it fails so be it but better than not trying at all

    Thank you for a great video Rudy! So many times I think how my life is worthless compared to everyone else my age because I don't have anything of value. These videos and hearing your experiences really give me hope and a cognitive persistence to try and turn things around.

  • @IuseanXboxController

    As someone who's entering their later 20's, who worked at a restaurant, this video has spoken to me more than any advice I have ever received. I really appreciate this video Rudy. I haven't been a subscriber for long, in fact I really only mainly watch your videos about pokemon, but this is exactly what I needed to hear. I'm deleting the Facebook app off my phone and will start doing the things I've been trying to do for awhile. Thank you.

    Hey Rudy. Thank you for this I am 22 almost 23 years old. I just finished college and I am realizing that it really isn't simple. Your videos about card stores and about cardboard investments gets me excited and really keeps my grounded for what type of future I am buying into. I think I am ready to go for it I have the capital and I am hoping to do what I love.
