Self-custody does put a lot of responsibility in your hands...all the responsibility, in fact.

If you feel like you're getting in over your head, zoom out, and practice some reps with smaller amounts. Get your coldcard (or whatever cold storage you're using) set up, send 50k sats to it, then back out. With a relatively small amount of sats on it, and with seed in hand, wipe the device, then go through the process of restoring from seed. Keep increasing the amount that you're storing on it as your comfortability level increases.

All these things take time and may seem tedious...it's time well spent. Once you've developed familiarity with these processes, it becomes to feel natural to trust your hodl to your own setup.

Make sure to keep that seed safe...keep it secret, keep it safe.
