In this example, the password doesn't seem strong enough, so feel free to create one with higher security.

6\. Once your password is set up, the next step is **one of the most crucial**. You will also have the possibility to watch a short video to learn about your **Secret Recovery Phrase** and how to keep your wallet safe. We recommend you to take the time to watch it. Security is never a waste of time.

Registering these words is the **most important** step when creating a wallet. **Take your time and double check it**.

7\. Then, you will need to put in the exact same order the 12 words to let **Metamask** know that you saved your seed words which are the keys to recovering your wallet in any case.
