How SUCCESS in Stock
Market (Investing/Trading) is like a Chinese Bamboo Tree?
Have
you heard about wonderful Chinese Bamboo Tree? The biggest teacher i.e. our mother
nature gives us biggest lessons on patience, faith and perseverance through
these Chinese Bamboo Trees.
Chinese
Bamboo Tree, like any normal plant, needs nurturing of water, fertile soil and
sunshine. After nurturing for full first year, you will see no visible signs of
any activity. In the second year, no sign of growth above the soil. Same for
third and fourth year as well. Your patience is tested. Your faith is shaken.
You begin to wonder whether your efforts (nurturing & caring) are going
waste. Will your efforts be rewarded or not?
And
then we enter into the 5th year and comes a miracle! We experience
growth, phenomenal growth. This Chinese Bamboo Tree grows 80 feet in just 6
weeks!!
So,
the big question is: What was this tree doing all these 4 years?
Was
this tree completely inactive for more than 4 years only to grow exponentially
in the 5th year, or
Was
this tree growing underground, developing & strengthening its roots strong
enough to support its potential huge growth in the 5th year and
onwards?
Of
course. The second is the answer.
Similar
is the case in Successful Stock Trading & Investing.
Successful
Stock Traders & Investors first make their foundation/base strong in their
initial struggling years when no visible sign of success (in terms of profits)
appears. They spend huge time on learning and applying their learnings, thus
making their base (root) so strong that they start making good to great profits
in coming years without much further hard work.
While
other category of traders, who haven’t spent good amount of time in getting
proper knowledge and luckily makes good amount of income/wealth all of sudden
in very short period of time, usually are unable to sustain their wealth and
give back all the earned profits as well as part or full of their capital to
the market.
So,
the point is:
Becoming
successful trader & investor is not easy. It is frustrating, demotivating,
unrewarding at one stage of period. But those traders, who are serious in their
dream / passion (of becoming successful trader), keep focused at it, keep
trying always and be patient and persistent during such period, will certainly
will become successful, very successful traders ultimately.
So,
have full faith in yourself and keep nurturing your “Chinese Bamboo Tree”
(Stock Market Passion), keep improving as trader/investor even if the changes
are very slow or invisible at times and one day will come when you will
surprise yourself.
