It began early in school. A grumpy teacher using a bold red pencil marked each and every mistake. I for one learned to fear making mistakes. Things became black and white with no room or tolerance for error.
Today I took some profit from the recent jump in crypto currencies. Of course, the long established fear of mistakes instantly began to beat me up. Even without time to pass or prices to change I feel stupid: a silly clown.
What if I can't buy back in? I feel a correction is coming, but what if I am wrong? Will I see a big red circle on today's test?
The point is we all must overcome fear. Some fear success, others embarrassment, or maybe failure. Fear by nature blocks progress. Part of the reason I decided to press the sell button was to challenge my fear. I don't need it.
Learning comes as a result of trial and error. Keep trying!
Here is today's beauty.
