I was thinking about how far I have matured as an investor. I'd say 5 years ago, I use to make excuses on why I couldn't invest, which is crazy! I would always start but never stayed consistent! If I couldn't see the near term upside (so short-sighted), I would lose hope & fall back into my wasting money habits. It wasn't until I started working out again & remember how building muscle works. Slow & incremental growth overtime becomes plentiful! This motivated me to stop eating time & start investing slowly overtime. Started off with entrepreneurship, stocks, bonds, & etf's (you name it, I researched it & initiated it). Listening to one of my mentors awhile back, I found out about the opportunities in Bitcoin & other cryptocurrencies... I have learned a lot & am continuing my research to become a better digital currency investor. Any different strategies I should be aware of other than diversification? I'm also excited about the future potentials of digital currencies & have become a very patient/consistent investor over time. Staying consistent is very hard due to family, relationships, life, day-to-day decisions, lifestyle choices & sudden lose of life. So I know it's not easy, I have found my method of staying consistent (always looking at everything as an investment or always thinking longterm). Anyways stay consistent & patient Steemit family & best wishes on your success at gaining financial freedom! - Aris
