I know that you mean well and I partly agree with what you are saying.
I disagree when you suggest that perhaps I should diversify.
My goal that I have set to myself is to achieve financial success through my passion that is crypto trading.
Setbacks are normal and expected. I have the strong belief that successful experts in their fields are the ones that have never given up to achieve mastery in their craft.
Where you have a point is my desire for perfection. You are partly right on this.
I got an improvement idea that took a full day to implement last Saterday. The new code is clearly superior to what it was before but concretely, it does zero difference to the system performance.
Monday major setback did remind me something. That opportunities aren't going to wait for me to be ready. I did not feel the urgency enough to really focus on what needs to be taken care first to grab the one that was in front of me. Fortunately, I have a second chance and I intend to not make the same mistake twice.
OTOH, some fields in software requires a very high standard of quality very close to perfection. Like software running medical equipment, aircrafts and managing money. If you close your eyes on small glitches, you let the door open to bigger issues... and I don't want that in a software managing my money. I wouldn't feel at ease leaving my software run unattended to go to sleep or going out if I did not have the strong belief that it is perfect AFAIK.
