Does our wellness depend on other people becoming bitcoiners? Do we ourselves need to convince everyone about bitcoin?

I was thinking in the past, that my "wellness" depends on other people's behaviour in a sense that we are all in the same system.

Not like my health, but like people are voting, doing things in the best of their ability, but it increases surveillance, control, things that effect me. Or at least things are not turning for the better. Therefore, I was thinking that I have to "help" them, so that it has a good outcome for both of us.

I thought, I can only buy and hodl bitcoin, because we need a critical mass so that the shops or places I use will accept it. And I shall talk about bitcoin to increase adoption, so that I can use bitcoin later.

But is it really true? Is this the way?

It sounds now a false narrative.

Why would the usage of bitcoin get increased if I talk about it? Why would they use it, if I can't even use it?

I realized that you need to be receptive to hear the things, and to be proactive to go after them. Usually my friends did not have enough motivation to follow up on these, or did not have the needs it can fulfill.

Therefore I realized, I shall not talk about bitcoin at all. It does not make sense. If people are asking about it, I will answer, but I won't start discussions about it. It is like, I don't talk about my vegetable peeler. I can peel potatoes with it, but it is not really a discussion topic.

Talking about it won't move me towards my goal. Rather I shall concentrate on doing things instead of talking about them. Concentrating on the things it allow me to do.

And if something is not available yet, I shall do it.

Do, do, do. Talk is cheap.

Anyway I think the best orange pilling is seeing others thrive because of bitcoin.
