That’s what try to tell myself everyday. But going into unknown territory and being patient over a long period of time is very nerve-wrecking. Questioning yourself is a daily routine. But once a stock skyrockets that’s where you actually realize that what you’re doing is right. But before that- it’s a struggle. Even though i experienced multiple stocks giving high returns, i also had stocks that went nowhere. I think that the most important factor in investing successfully is about trusting yourself and going regularly over your investment thesis.

This is the truest thing I’ve read all week, Gil. You nailed the hardest part of this strategy: The silence.

If the trade felt safe and comfortable, the stock would already be priced perfectly (and the 50% upside wouldn't exist).

You have to be willing to look wrong for a long time to eventually look right in a big way. The silence before the move is where the money is actually earned.
