Investing and holding

Investing is not just about buying at the dip and selling at the news. There are lot of things in between. One of the primary thing that investing requires is patience. The patience to wait for the returns we saw when we did the analysis. Many people buy stocks based on tips and what they hear in the news. These people become fragile at the investment journey. They move their portfolio multiple times to get the returns that their mind eluded. Without a proper research and study we don’t know how and when we gonna get the return we expected.
Some people make their investment based on their study and understanding of the market. They spent weeks and months learning about the field and companies before investing. The advantage here is that they know exactly how the price behaves to a greater extent. They know when to expect the return they hope for. What it does is that it filters the confusion. If the price crawls as hell, they must have know it and they keep their patience on hold. Holding is one of the difficult things in investment. But what keeps investors to hold to their understanding and learning. And it pays off.

We were born into the society trap where everything is predefined. Everything is written and all we have to do is to obey them. We are not allowed to wander with our will and certainly not with any other rules. Predefined are the prime ones. When we look at those cultural scribings of activism, we could see that everything is limiting and designed to refrain is from our true potential. The hardest thing is not being unaware of this trap, it is being in the trap even after knowing you are in a trap. This makes us to think differently. Because we found something, probably, no one around found. It would be game changer for everyone. It could transform the society and culture, paving a more promising future for the generations to come. But what happen when we introduce this theory to those blind people is quite depressing. They mock and joke you, laugh a...
