Growth is not a straight line
If success were linear, everyone would already be sitting on their yachts and watching their capital double every month.
But the reality is different: ups and downs follow, periods of euphoria follow despondency, and those who are not prepared for this volatility simply disappear.
Look at the illustration.
It captures the essence perfectly: a small creature climbing up a winding line, which is strewn with flowers.
That's growth. It's never a straight line. It's always through pain, through setbacks, through periods when it feels like you're stuck.
But the most interesting thing is where are you on this curve?
- Someone has already fallen down, thinking that the growth has ended
- Someone is just starting out, not understanding how many drawdowns are ahead
- And someone is just holding on to the branches and continues moving
The market doesn't have to go exactly the way you want it to.
