The moment I almost handed over my Trezor… 🙃

I’ll be honest – there was a time very early in my crypto journey where I wanted to hand over my Trezor wallet and let someone I trusted deal with it. I had made my first big profits and suddenly, I wasn’t just playing around with a few thousand dollars…. I was holding real value.

And that terrified me.

What if I lost it?
What if I clicked the wrong button?
What if I got scammed out of all this money? 

It triggered every fear I didn’t know I had around responsibility and wealth.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I was thrilled to have made so much money in my first bull run. It was more than I’d ever had in my life. But the thought of managing it myself and being completely responsible for it? It was nerve-wracking to say the least!

But I’m so glad I didn’t succumb to my fear that day. Instead, I took a deep breath… and dove further into my education. My confidence grew, and I learned it wasn’t hard to keep my assets safe. I didn’t need to hand my wealth over to a person I trusted to manage it; I could control it on my own.

And that feeling of holding your wealth with confidence is something I want every crypto investor to experience.

The truth is, once you step into the space where you fully own your decisions and financial freedom, you start seeing yourself differently. You stop second-guessing yourself and fully embrace your role as the owner of your financial future.

This is a very powerful shift.

You couple that with safe crypto practices and consistently educating yourself, and the fear can dissipate completely.

Like I always say, crypto gives to you what you give to it. And it’s those who put in the effort, show up consistently and override their negative beliefs around holding wealth that succeed.

I don’t believe we were meant to outsource our financial freedom. In fact, it’s far better when we create it and manage it ourselves. And right now, we’re at an incredible point in history to do just that. The rules are being rewritten, the gatekeepers are losing their grip, and everyday people are stepping up, educating themselves, and taking charge of their finances on their terms.

So if you’re at that moment of doubt… I encourage you to sit with that discomfort and let it expand further into your learning. It’s okay to feel overwhelmed, it’s all part of this journey to backing yourself, owning your wealth, and enjoying what you’re building.
