the mental model that works for me is thinking that all of this money that i was offered as a gift can disappear tomorrow and that, if that happens, i will have to just look for a normal job and life will still be a gift 

most of people work normal jobs anyway

hopefully it doesn't happen though. i like this

i think most successful traders operate with some version of suspended realization 

but is a fine line btwn dangerous and beneficial wrt disregarding reality of our digital wealth

most must dance well into the dangerous side before finding the benefits themself

Yeah I think you really do have to learn the hard way that it's not real until realised in order to take risk seriously. That's why first cycles are so crucial in forming a relationship with the space when it comes to trading & speculating.

I found in my early trades that I spent a lot of time sitting in winning positions that eventually went on to drop back to breakeven or generally became less profitable than other opportunities that I was also aware of. 

IMO It's easy to consider unrealised profits as gains in a way that doesn't exist elsewhere.

i'm on my first cycle, and full on navigating the rollercoaster.

what have you learned that could be beneficial for someone like me at this point? what do you mean with "forming a relationship with the space"?
