People always ask what you did wrong in the past bull cycle, but what exactly you did right in 2021 and it's proven to be the best decision after seeing the entire market in 2022?

This is year two full time investing in crypto. I've jumped from one alt coin to another. I've made MANY terrible mistakes that I don't want to repeat.

I've heard many good advice such as don't sell at loss, avoid pump and dump, don't listen to youtubers who only shill low cap coin.

But, seeing everyone's opinion on Twitter, Reddit or YouTuber such as Ben, it looks like 2021-2022 period is different than the last bull cycle? I'm not so sure how and why.

There's a rumor about lengthening cycle but no one predicted the war in Russia and Ukraine along with high inflation across many countries.

While I decide to follow some people's advice to not sell at loss, I'm just wondering in what situation are we in now? Bull run? Bear market? Volatile situation with no possible good outcome? BTC crashes down to $29k?

I know it's something no one can't predict, so I would just ask what did you do right in 2021 and made you glad you did it after seeing the market in 2022?
