As the Chinese proverb goes,
“The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second-best time is now”.
You are likely looking back now, thinking of the opportunities missed in the market over the last few months and what could have been. Stop dwelling on the past, put steps in place so that history doesn’t repeat itself because if you don’t, an older, more wrinkled you will be cursing the present you for your inaction.
So, where do I start?
Of course, it is not as easy as just throwing your money into the stock market and coming back in 20 years to collect your winnings, if it was, I’d be out of a job. The point I am trying to make is, good investing isn’t about who appears wealthiest or searching for the highest one-off return; it’s about earning solid returns that you can stick with for an extended period of time.
In order to build a portfolio that you are willing to hold through the inevitable pits and troughs of various investment cycles; you will need to have an investment plan that suits you.
Clarity around your investment plan
Your plan, your needs, not anyone else’s. The more understanding you have around your own investment needs and goals, the higher the probability of you sticking with it through short term fluctuations as you will be able to focus on your underlying longer-term goal as opposed to the current volatility.
Creating a diversified investment plan that is conducive to you personally will ultimately put you in the position to achieve a much more attainable and probable wealth target. Given the choice, I know I would choose financial freedom in reality over unprecedented riches in my dreams, so for now, focus on the prior instead of wasting all your time daydreaming about the latter.
