Life is like fishing.
Being an entrepreneur I've had plenty of ups and downs in my endeavors.
The past two months I've had plenty of ups and downs in our crypto currency world.
Then it occurred to me. My whole life was like a fishing trip. I'd get up very early in the morning preparing for the fishing trip that day; making sure I packed my favorite lures or minnow bucket, landing net, fish keeper or stringer, rods & reels and made sure I had enough gas for the outboard motor.
Each trip was different. There were times when I caught a lot of fish, but there were times that I caught nothing, depending on the weather, phase of the moon, time of year, or time of day.
Sometimes the weather was beautiful, sometimes hot, sometime freezing cold, or an unexpected storm arose.
So, in our endeavors, there will be times when we're successful and it was easy. Other times unsuccessful and very hard to do regardless of the amount of effort we put into them.
Life is like that. Never stop trying. If you don't try, you don't get. Trying is educational, many times exciting and fun, and the experiences are memorable.
