How to navigate your investment in MARKET VOLATILITY?
Dear Investors,
Namaste! I am sure most of you are worried about the market movements. Those who have come to the market post COVID – they would be witnessing this kind of volatility for the first time. So, to help them and to make the seasoned investors' life easy – I am writing this strategic post on investments.
Let me take the help of a story for the same.
Missing 10th Person: -
I have read a story when 10 brothers were crossing the rivers. After they crossed they decided to make sure that nobody drowned in the river. They are still 10.
So, the first brother calculated. As the normal psychology goes – he counted all his brothers except him. He ended up at 9. So, others also tried. Now, everybody makes the same mistake. So, all ended up at 9. Now, they are sure that they have lost their one brother. So, they started crying.
One SADHU was passing by. He asked why they were crying. They said they have lost one brother while crossing the river. SADHU calculated. They were 10 only. So, SADHU said – stand in a line. I will slap one after the other. First one will say 1. The other will say 2 and so on. SLAP will make you remember that you have been calculated. SADHU slapped each of them and the counting ended at 10.
They all became happy and bowed down to the SADHU.
Why this story now?
We are facing tons of head winds now. It is TRUMP’s TARIFF war / WAR in some countries / Natural Calamities / Local social media REELS / YouTuber Astrologers and EXPERTS / Media experts who are shouting in the TV as if the listeners are deaf / Local political scenarios / Unemployment / DE-growth of business and many other issues.
Like innocent brothers – the small investors keep counting the above factors and forgets himself.
When you forget yourself – you will forget about your GOALS / DREAMS and your aspirations. You lose the sense of control over yourself. You feel suffocated by the situation. In panic – you end up selling your investments. Another unforgivable mistake can happen is they CHOOSE TO WAIT for the market stability before investing.
Volatility is the time when your chosen shares will be available at lower prices. They may remain at lower prices after you buy. But once the rally starts and one the STABILITY comes – you will not get the chance to buy those shares at lower prices!!
So, FOCUS on YOUR DREAMS and GOALS.
How to achieve your DREAMS in current situations?
Everyday morning – ask one question 20 times.
How will I achieve my goals in the current situations?
I have learned this technique from a legendary USA based trainer. He calls this technique 20 idea methods. You will end up with 20 ideas everyday morning. Now, start working on them. Everyday 20 new ideas. What else do you want?
What is the BIGGEST PROBLEM for the NORMAL PEOPLE?
Normal people have DESIRES / ASPIRATIONS. They don’t have GOALS. They assume their DESIRES are their GOALS.
Since they don’t have GOALS – they get carried aways by TOM-DICK and HARRY.
I see normal people do all good things for animals / sadhus / religions and their fellow friends. They donate / they help / they feed. But they FORGET themselves in the process.
What NEXT?
Set your GOALS first. If you don’t know – you can take our inputs for the same.
I have seen in my life and people whom I have coached – if they really set their goals – they surely achieve the same, irrespective of the market situations.
