I began investing in the early 2000s, but a brutal education began in November 2021 when I left my job to invest full-time. For over two years, I chased fleeting winning streaks and lost a significant amount of money by overlooking simpler, more reliable paths.

My breakthrough came in March 2024, thanks in large part to essential mentors and peers. I learned to tune out market noise and focus on fundamentals. By studying psychological archetypes, I embraced the concept of "Time," which is indifferent to market emotions, biases, and short-term fluctuations. I believe this has given me the psychological discipline to wait for my moment and hold firm amidst market panic.

Today, I no longer chase fleeting opportunities. My strategy is simple: identify undervalued companies, diversify, weight positions appropriately for risk, and stay disciplined to secure consistent, "boring" profitability. My goal is to grow my capital to cover expenses and minimize debt, all while remaining steadfast and grounded in a long-term perspective. This approach, which I call being "in Time," provides security and creates more time for other pursuits in life.
