You have to experience it, yourself, for real, with actual skin in the game. You have to go through the motion of setting up a wallet, holding your own keys, making backups, recovering from those backups, and so on. You have to understand some of the nuances of what Bitcoin is and how it works, not only to understand what you possess—but also to understand the power that Bitcoin bestows upon you.

You have to understand beyond the intellectual. You have to participate. You have to feel what it means.

Then, and only then, will you begin to understand why and how "bitcoin fixes this." I don't believe that this realization can come without experience.

Again: there are no easy solutions. I can't recommend one single article, one book, or one 5-step guide that is one-size-fits-all. You have to care enough to figure out what works for you, what works for your friends, your family, your loved ones, your community, and so on.
