The biggest investing mistake isn't always buying the wrong asset. More often, it's exiting the right one too soon while refusing to let go of a losing position.
This behavior is known as the Disposition Effect. Investors naturally seek the emotional satisfaction of locking in gains while avoiding the discomfort of realizing losses. Unfortunately, markets don't reward emotional relief—they reward disciplined execution.
Before making your next decision, ask yourself one question:
"Am I reacting to today's evidence or yesterday's purchase price?"
The market doesn't know your cost basis. It only reflects current supply, demand, and expectations.
Discipline outperforms comfort over the long run.
