Even with the best financial advisor, you won’t be winning all of the time. Nobody can perfectly predict the markets (and if they do, they might be doing some insider trading). You will take some Ls. And when that happens, instead of being frustrated, be proud. That L is a sign that you shot your shot and took a chance on your future.

Also know that any wins you’ve had, you got those because you took a chance on yourself. So don’t let a loss send you into hiding, pulling all your money out. If you’d done that in the first place, you would have never had the wins. In investments, like in life, understand that there will be wins and losses – they’re all part of it.
