If you feel pressure to invest and force trades you are not trading to make money, your motivation is action... driven by FOMO. Like it or not, that's the truth. I NEVER feel pressure to trade because the indexes rally. I trust the setups will come and take them upon arrival.

The word is sacrifice. You are not going to be the best at day trading, swing, value and growth investing. It will be amazing if you can master just one. And you only need one. So pick one and sacrifice the rest! There is no other way unless you want to suck at a bunch of things.
What is the single unavoidable thing you must do to be the best or great at one thing? One word?

None of the attributes like discipline, persistence, consistency or hard work are going to do you any good if you are all over the place and haven't first defined your style and committed to mastering it at the expense of being a mediocre jack-of-all trades. #avoidstyledrift.
