Take a Break sometimes, listen to your Body
For the last Year, since I got into Cryptospace I must admit I was doing some mistakes.
I was so hyped about this whole new World & amazing opportunities, that I forgot how to take good care of myself.
I was reading whole day everyday, this crypto - that crypto. Researching ICO's back & forth, 24-7... Investing
Finding various new opportunities, Steem for example where I put lot of Focus as well
It all started with writing Articles but eventually I found myself doing 10 Things simultaneously...
Streaming Video Games, creating Videos, Podcasts, Photographs... even some Music
And all of that was amazing & I wouldn't change it for anything but there was 1 Thing I really lacked... and I still do. Sleep.
I was so deep in the Crypto-hype that firstly, I forgot how many hours of sleep I really need (when you are hyped about smth you can actually sleep less)
And secondly, as time passed I got perfectly normal with it & it became my reality...
Majority of the Time I wasn't going to sleep before 6 AM, 7... And that's catastrophic, considering how important Sleeping actually is for us...
So I found myself in a Circulus Virtiosus, doing various things in crypto space not falling asleep before 7 AM, to wake up after noon next day and start it all over again...
I must admit, this kind of behavior brought me many advantages but at the same time it brought me many disadvantages...
So I was handling everything pretty good for the last 10 Months but slowly I became nervous... So now, even after started sleeping appropriately I still felt nervous (you can't make up for months of bad sleep so fast) and all of it kind of affected my Life quality
No matter how much I trained or how much care I put into the Food I ate, still, the most important part of it all - sleeping, I wasn't doing it right
Eventually, that led me to huge explosion & emotional outburst that hurt many people I love... and I felt bad for it
Especially since everything I was doing was connected to them since I wanted to ensure better for them.
You know, when you find out about something as crypto you quickly realize the potential this has to free everyone you love from the system... So, since not everyone were capable of comprehending that I guess I started working so hard so I can cover few persons myself
Even though, many couldn't see it nor realize it but if you are a part of this crypto hype & find anything relevant in this story (in terms it connects to you), I'm pretty sure you know what I'm talking about.
So yeah, just wanted to say - I need a break. I need a good fu**ing break & a lot of quality sleeping Time. I don't research crypto anymore nor do I invest in ICO's, right now I'm almost all in on Steem blockchain & this is the place where I see myself.
But still, I need a break even from this... So I won't be as active as before, not even in terms of engaging not even in terms of multiple posts daily...
But I'll do my best to deliver quality content in areas that matters to me the most. I'm extremely grateful to get a chance to be a part of @tribesteemup community since now I can rest a bit... I know that I can come here whenever I want to & my tribe will support me
So I will use this opportunity to recharge my batteries a bit, work on myself even further... Thanks to the tribe for giving me freedom!
And the purpose of this post was to let you know, how, no matter how hyped you are about something - TAKE A BREAK.
You need it.
Not only for that Life Force (Energy) but for your emotional stability as well. And creativity! Creativity comes from good rest! So yeah... Wish me luck :D
I need to get my full creativity back...
Namaste
Haha I think everyone has that for a while, but a year?! I was stressed and exhausted after a month , just trying to find wallets! and then loosing due to fake wallets or phishing hahahahahh.. If we ever think we have some kind of control of the ego, then we just have to reflect on how much we go insane over something that we think were missing out on, when actually we are the early adopters of crypto currency. I do absolutely diddly squat research on crytpo, just find a low ranking token and see the website. if I see it has a good use and it 10 cents, then i keep eye on it.
Like you say Steem is itself very good. Id go insane looking at ICO's , something i never will do lol. Fear Of Missing Out is a fucker for a mind that hasnt been silenced with meditataion haahahah
I lost a lot myself man... I wanted to write it but somehow forgot :')
Lmaooo, you said that so fucking precise!
I can see you understand me fully :)
Well, now its meditation time!
Fuck fomo man :P
I just read a lot about The mind and the first thing I learnt is that we are NOT our minds! I don't understand you, its the mind :P
Ive lost also that amount, including sillyness like leaving 1000usd on a bus, and hour before meeting with bitcoin man when it was 3000usd ! Mental thing is i would never had thought I would have had so much to loose in the first place so fast !
Are you into qigong? (think i spelt it wrong!) very recently instead of doing standard mindfullness, i've been doing it standing in the quigong position -ive got blockages in my chi man! Its well trippy if you can slip into thoughtlessness fast, you become wobbly on your feet!
I also experienced the same thing.
Sorry to hear that, but I hope it was at least financially beneficial if nothing :)
surely it is worthwhile

I think almost everyone goes through this as excitement can be a big part of the trouble of not being able to sleep, however I agree that sleep is probably the most important thing in our lives along side good nutrition and exercise. It looks like you are now ready to be kind to yourself again. Namaste
take all the rest you need !!
Yesterday's disconnection did some good time huh?
