Yes, regretted buying stocks too early because I was chasing the hype often lead to trapping my own capital for extended periods of time, have paid "tuition" fees for them [LOL].

One should always be quick to correct their own beliefs and take actions to remedy/ reverse course if the decision was wrong in hindsight. The ability to detach oneself ego from the decision made earlier and being quick to adapt and change course is a superpower that I aim to get better at with each trade.

Having calculated patience is also crucial in succeeding long term and being a long term investor in TSLA has also taught me to drown out the noise and focus on how the company is executing, especially when things are never always rosy (when mainstream media is never a friend). Also learned to trust the charts, shifting to a combination of fundamentals + technical analysis really helped.

Also having outsized gains when you're right and limit losses when you're wrong makes you win in the long run.

Is Being Quick to Act in Stock Market a Strength or a Risk?
You stare at a stock, tempted to buy. You don’t. Then it jumps. And you regret not acting sooner. A few days later, it dips again and you feel relieved you didn’t buy. But wait... doesn’t this emotional rollercoaster feel like you're still participating in the market even though you never made the trade? Have you ever regretted not buying a stock or buying too fast? Do you believe decisiveness leads to better returns in investing? In your opinion, what’s more important: quick action, or calculated patience?
