My Personal Stock Market Experiences

First job of an investor is to KNOW YOURSELF (both intellectually ? emotionally - Your risk tolerance)
-People who intellectually understands what losing $20K means but emotionally they lose sleep over it. Develop a risk profile that helps you to understand WHERE ? HOW to invest.

LOSING $$$ is the best way to make you see what you are made of. Remaining resilient once you lost $$$ teaches you more about the stock Market ? yourself. Learn important lessons from your mistakes ? profits will take care of itself later ....

Taking PRUDENT risk is a pre-requisite to make $ in stock market.

Trust your INTUITION, be confident to go with your instinct after due diligence have been exercised. Sell at a GOOD price, not a comfortable price.

Since you are your own general, REWARD yourself with a little treat after your victorious win. By incentivising yourself, you are reinforcing a winning attitude and state of mind. 

The more CERTAIN the crowd is, the more certain it is to be wrong. After all, if everyone is correct, there will be no reward.
