Stability, the false promise of catching you on the mouse wheel
At the moment of history in which we find ourselves, it is difficult to find stability. That word, stability, so simple, so intuitive, so sought after... and sometimes, so misleading. This post does not seek to show you something that you have not already sensed... something that is in the air and that is obvious... should not be in question. However, in the age of debt, inflation and economic wars, it is difficult to escape the spiral. Like a black hole, gravity pulls everything close to the point of no return.
We can talk about stable coins, financial stability, mental stability. Everything related to stability seems to be in demand or desired, while at the same time it seems to be unfulfilled. Maybe you need some proof of what I assert here, although you have long sensed it. Okay, continue with the images below.
The dollar fluctuates as shown by the DXY (U.S. Dollar Index).
And remember, the fiat currencies and the markets are never stable, fiat money is a secure way going to zero, and stocks are normally moving up and down in cycles as shown by VIX (CBOE Volatility Index).
Mental strength against external manipulations
People are not like a stone statue, we enjoy and suffer with our mental state changes. We have our ups and downs that are related to our feelings and emotions. Therefore, accepting it is the first step to be less susceptible to changes and to adapt to those changes in a better way. This internalized acceptance helps us to feel better in bad times, and to curb excessive euphoria in good times. What good does this do us? Abrupt changes can be exhausting, and being clear about this does not make us immune, but it does strengthen us in the face of the manipulations we constantly face.
Having said that, we can relate all that has been exposed in the post so far and use it to our advantage, so that it will be more difficult to be used against us. Therefore, it will be more difficult to be manipulated by the actions of third parties like market fluctuations, aggressive advertising campaigns, events in our social environment or relationships with those close to us and other external elements that are beyond our control but which are directed at us, as part of the social mass that we are.
The final thought, the dot over the i.
Now, if you've made it to this part of the post and are still reading, I'm glad to have been part of your time invested today. Thank you. But... this is not over. I'd like us to do a thought exercise and ask ourselves before we wrap up. Are stablecoins and fiat money really as stable as they seem? or are they here to play a necessary role in the volatility game?
At the same time, states are promising prosperity and calm under a false veil of stability financed by unpayable debt. This is why taking certain risks and stepping out of the comfort zone offered by false stabilities can be both vital and necessary if we want to prosper and not be squeezed out. Stable currencies are fine for transitory moments or paying your bills, but don't stay in them forever.
If you want to jump on the next bull market trains, while protecting your future from the tentacles of the powerful, you're going to have to make wise and risky choices. Best of luck fellow crypto-space travelers! I look forward to seeing you in the next post
