The concept of forward awareness, to put it simply, is living money. How many people have had a market crash not because they haven't heard risk warnings, but because they didn't take them seriously.

Over the past few years, we've been pondering various pitfalls: when to reduce positions, when to liquidate, which projects are traps for harvesting the inexperienced. Those who trust us are highly disciplined and have prepared plans for both big and small matters in advance. What about those who hold onto luck? When they realize it, there are only two options: one is to settle accounts (why did I lose so much), and the other is to fall deeper (debt, anxiety, regret).

The two most realistic sentences for you—being cold in the wind is because of unpreparedness, being poor in debt is because of wishful thinking. If pain can lead to progress, then it's worth it. But if all you do is regret, no amount of despair can change anything.

Ignoring risk warnings is a common problem among most people. Every day I see how many people crash and burn because of this. It's a harsh truth—luck is really deadly. I've seen too many cases like this, ending in debt and regret. Reducing and clearing positions require execution. Procrastination only leads to death. Having a pre-plan can really save your life. Cold in the wind, poor in debt—these two lines hit home. Countless blood, tears, and lessons have accumulated into golden advice. The difference between those who ponder their positions and those who gamble on luck is not minor. The final outcome has long been predetermined. Whether pain leads to progress depends on your choice. Either don't regret or truly change. The middle line is the most deadly.

I've heard this kind of statement countless times, but very few actually make the change.

After listening to the risk warning, those who still crash are basically doing it themselves, there's nothing much to say. --- Reducing and clearing positions is easier said than done; only a few can really execute it. --- Luck is a poison; once you drink it, be prepared to pay your debts. --- Contingency plans, most people don't even have one, they rely solely on luck to make money. --- Pain leads to progress; it sounds great, but the money lost can never be recovered. --- It's really just the difference between self-discipline and luck, nothing mysterious. --- Why am I talking about this again? The market is like this; when it's time to crash, no one can run away. --- Sober people have already fully withdrawn, those still messing around inside are basically hopeless.

I didn't take it seriously, but that sentence hit me hard. So many people die because of just the "listening" part.
