What you believe in your heart and what you think in your mind will eventually become your words and your reality. If you can see it in your mind, eventually you can hold it right here in your hand; what you repeatedly do gets ingrained in your subconscious mind, and what gets ingrained in your subconscious mind becomes your unconscious activity.
Worst investment everCoach JV left corporate America super excited about entrepreneurship. However, he didn’t understand the ins and outs of entrepreneurship and scaling. So, at the very beginning, Coach JV lost all his money.
Then, this great promise of cryptocurrency came into Coach JV’s life. But he had this deep-rooted indoctrination around those types of things. Nonetheless, when Coach JV was introduced to a coin called XRP, he got curious and started researching it. He saw the excitement of all the money being made in cryptocurrency. He also decided to invest heavily.
Coach JV made a lot of money from his investment and couldn’t even keep up with all the different coins being pumped at him. Coach JV even became influential in the space.
Unfortunately, he got into this speculative asset with no game plan. Then, suddenly, and it seemed like overnight, he woke up and was down 85%. Coach JV went from a millionaire to a thousandaire between 2021 and 2022.
Lessons learnedAlways take 24 hours to make a decision. When somebody comes to you very excited about something, stop for a moment, listen, use discernment, and also seek wise counsel.
No.1 goal for the next 12 monthsCoach JV’s number one goal for the next 12 months is to stay non-emotional about what’s happening in America, remain focused on his fundamentals, and be as keen as possible not to get caught up in the greed gene.
Parting words“Remember what you believe in your heart and think in your mind will eventually become your words and your reality. If you can see it in your mind, eventually, you can hold it in your hands. What you repeatedly do gets ingrained in your subconscious mind. What gets ingrained in your subconscious mind becomes your unconscious activities.”Coach JV
