What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?
The advice wasn’t direct to me but in a recent podcast Dr. Gio Valiente draws between sports to investing. “When investing, deploy capital proportional to the opportunity in the market in the moment. Have a disciplined and repeatable process to drive investment decisions because fear of failure, or having a less desirable outcome, can distract us from seeing the opportunity at hand.”
