$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$
Everyone's investment journey is different and focusing solely on comparisons can detract from our personal achievements. While it is true that a few of my investment didn't perform as well as I hoped, the fact that I ended up with a positive return overall is a success in its own right. Investing isn't just about beating the market. It is about achieving our own financial goals and learning along the way.
Moreover, I have seen trade feeds where numerous investors have gained over 100% on their shares and I genuinely feel happy for them. Their success is inspiring and shows that significant gains are possible. At the same time, I am aware that the stock market is unpredictable and everyone's situation is unique. Rather than feeling discouraged, I choose to celebrate my own progress and stay motivated by the successes of others.
In the end, my investment strategy is about more than just immediate returns. It is about long-term growth, learning from my experiences and maintaining a positive outlook. By appreciating what I have achieved, I can continue to enjoy the journey of investing.
