Stock Trading Awakening

Learning to trade stocks can be a transformative experience that opens your eyes to new financial opportunities. Many investors go through a process of realization, understanding the risks and rewards involved, and developing their own strategies. This awakening often leads to a deeper comprehension of market dynamics and personal financial management. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced trader, continuous learning and self-awareness are key to success in the stock market. Embrace the journey of discovery and stay vigilant to avoid common pitfalls. Remember, patience and discipline are essential virtues for any trader aiming for long-term growth.

I have seen many people who are good at stock trading, and truly wealthy individuals are often late bloomers. Stable and consistent profits that lead to great wealth usually come around the age of 35. Before 35, the money earned is often hard to keep and ultimately sent back to the market.
When I was in my twenties, I also made a lot of money. Someone warned me that youthful success is a great misfortune in life. I didn’t agree at all. Isn’t it said that fame should come early? I arrogantly believed that earning money was a sign of my personal ability, completely ignoring the fact that it was merely a gift from national fortune and economic cycles. This kind of luck, in the sweetest way, destroyed the foundation of my long-term success. It made me, when I should have been surviving as a student, mistakenly think I had mastered the secret to conquering the market. It wasn’t until I lost the floating wealth gained by luck and regained it through strength that I truly understood that saying: only when your cognition matches your pocket, can you be truly virtuous and capable.
Now that I am in my thirties, I have finally become a long-term profitable trader. Almost all my success in trading comes from disciplined actions and the long-term delayed gratification it brings. I really want to send this message to my twenty-something self: wealth doesn’t come from rushing; in fact, slowly getting rich is the fastest shortcut in this world.
