Most times, what makes us starts on our investment journey is not because we know the future, but it is because we want to start doing something, it is because we want to get an extra income but investment is not always about income. It is about how we can visualize the future of what we are investing in now. 
I am very sure that the early investors of Bitcoin did not know that Bitcoin would be as big as it is now, those early investors saw what they believe in and they invest in it even when so many people were saying it doesn't make sense they hold on to it and kept on believing in the future.
Sometimes, even in our business, we have moments when things might not be working out for us, we have times when we will question our decision in investing or starting a business but what get us out of this thought is the determination of building for the future and setting a long term goal.
Easy making
No Investment is easy but we can make investing easy for ourselves and one of those things we can do to make investing easy is to plan a long time game. Quick money always brings about quick gain and expectations. Most times what we invested did not fail but we lack the patience to build.
Setting Long time goals always gives us the ability to avoid noise, it reduces the pressure of getting quick money, and also the ability to invest in our pace without competition. Competition is a thief of joy and can be the principal to our downfall if not put in check.
We have so many people on hive that start their journey from zero hive power and now they are dolphins, with constant compounding and building for the future their hard work pays off, building something real for the long term is the best way to get out of poverty.
