Dear Self, STOP Grinding For Once!

Grinding, grinding, and more grinding. When will it stop? How long will I grind hard? Why do I even grind this much?

These are just a few questions that I would usually ask myself whenever I just wanted to chill out and do nothing but fun. However, whenever I think about me time, a real me time, where I don't have to think about earning money, I feel like I miss a whole bunch of opportunities already.

This is why no matter how much I wanted to just relax and enjoy a movie marathon, I'd still end up grinding one or more while doing the other. You might not believe me when I tell you that when I do something else like writing an article or watching a movie, I'm also playing Axie at the same time while also chatting on either Telegram or Discord. Now you know why I prefer watching English movies or TV series because other languages prevent me from doing several things in one setup.

I don't know why I grind so much. Is it because of money? Maybe. Or perhaps because I am inspired to do the same as what my Club1BCH fam are doing. They grind like there's no tomorrow. Remember the recent hype on airdrops? We were like chasing millions back then. Well, we were, indeed, chasing millions or even trillions of tokens at that time. Too bad, I only had almost 2M from Kitten while my friends have trillions and even gazillions. Lol.

I guess I just like grinding more because of them. They inspire me to work hard and give my all every single day. Although there are times that I could not publish anything, I still make sure to grind more on other things like making noise at least every 3 hours, playing Axie Infinity while trying my best to win in the arena, checking the market for the best buy or sell, and just recently, finishing our website.

How long will I have to grind? That I don't know. I think I will keep grinding just to make me feel productive every day. But, if one day, BCH will reach the same level as ETH or who knows, BTC, then I will just grind for fun and not for the money. But for now, I'll just focus on grinding to improve my portfolio.

Nonetheless, if I could just tell myself one thing, that's to chill a bit and stop grinding for once. To just think about myself and nothing else. To relax without getting distracted by other things. To enjoy the moment without thinking about earning money or the possibility of missing out on some opportunities. For once, self, have a real me time!

Closing thoughts

I wish, one day, I could do something else and not just doing the same routine over and over again.

I'm not stressed by the way. I've been just having a hard time getting proper sleep recently. I already forgot what nap is.

Oh, well, at least my grinding also inspires others to do their best too.

I think we should not take any pressure, coz it always ends with an unforgettable depression. Don't think too much or take too much pressure on your soft and mild heart, everything happens with a purpose. We just need work hard and believe on ourselves. Thank you for motivating me.

Thank you for this. I kinda need a reminder like this to never take things tooooooo seriously. I mean grinding is okay. But if my body tells me to chill, I should listen to what my body says. The more I forced myself, the more it will be hard for me to achieve anything. HEHE. Thanks.

Absolutely, the more we will think the more our body and mind will grind, we need to understand these things. Sometimes we should take some maybe one day or two days for the sake of our body, heart and mind. Don't Forse yourself to do something that your heart and body do not want to do, it may hurts you both physically and mentally. Wait patiently and work hard, it the most effective thing we can do, by doing this we can achieve our desires and goals easily. Have a blessed night

Now we have the time and power to do so, why not do it? I think it is better to work hard now and relax later than relaxing now and working when my bones aren't strong enough to carry me again.

That's the reason why I grind always but I don't hesitate to rest and have fun when I have the chance to do so.

The problem is I rest less and grind more. Like I barely get enough rest. So I need to work to be able to balance everything.

I do stop grinding po when I feel pressured on myself na. When I realized that I'm putting all myself to this Cryptocurrency thingy. After that I just focus on myself and to the real world surrounds me. I enjoy little things with them and smile at the same time. We all deserve a break po

You need to set aside time for yourself, after you have completed your tasks. I work hard as well, but I also make a conscious effort to not "work" for money but for passion or leisure. The world doesn't end if some work gets postponed. I am also trying my best to get to bed early. Health is important and no one cares if we are ill. Our clients will easily replace us. Take care, MJ.

This grinding would never going to stop. Because, this is life. Everyday we grind and set out goals and achieve them all 365 days are same.

You are indeed a multi-tasker MJ. I salute you to have that skill. I can't do it at the same time because I tend to ignore the other things and only focus on one hehe...But I believe you also need to have time for yourself so that you can have fun at the same time. Life is too short. As they say, work hard but play the hardest. But if you did enjoy grinding and you are happy with what you are doing, I believe that you can just grind to your heart's content but put a limit to it so that your body can rest as well.

Same thoughts, Ateeee. Minsan naitatanong ko din sa sarili ko kung kailan ba 'to matatapos. Kasi malapit nang mapudpod keyboard ko kaka-grind sa side hustles ko saka sa acad life. Haha, charrr! Pero seryoso, kailan kaya hanooo? For sure, kapag successful na tayo or medjo nakaka-ginhawa na.. 'Yun bang pwede tayong humilata lang maghapon, gawin 'yung mga gusto natin na 'di nagwo-worry kung may ii-spend ba tayo kinabukasan for our needs. Nakaka-pagod din pero it'll all be paid of.

Same with me on read.cash. whenever I watch a video I still on the edge to read comment and upvote. I feel I neglect the platform. In reality I don't I just want that few hours spent with something else.

Regarding airdrops. I did not get any of the recent airdrops. I am more for the exclusive ones like UniSwap was with it's 400 Uni tokens.

Btw something wrong with discord I can't join. I will look into it again.

You need to give yourself a day off so you can relax and do something entirely different. You can decide to use an entire day to watch movies or play games (not axieBCH), just do something different from your usual routine.

You might think you're not stressed right now, but you not getting proper sleep is already enough stress, but you might not have noticed it. Just take a day off to focus on yourself dear Mj, you can return to grinding the next day πŸ˜‰
