If you’re not a full-time investor and are considering an investment method, start by defining your identity. That means deciding what your main job is and what your side job is because it greatly affects your time management in investing and influences your results. If you can’t monitor stock trading daily or hourly, then you’re not a full-time investor and should treat investing as a side job. How I allocate my time for investing plays a crucial role in choosing and deciding how to invest. There are many different ways to invest around the world. Impatience is the main mistake that can ruin both my life and my investments. My view of time is that it’s my life. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Jesus taught, “If you got slapped your right cheek, turn the other cheek.” One of the actions that the Jewish Qumran community denied and forbade was “pointing with the left hand.” Violations of this rule brought sanctions from the community. To hit the right cheek means the opponent strikes with an unclean left or right backhand. This cheek slap is deliberately insulting and humiliating rather than merely a pain-inflicting action. Therefore, this teaching of Jesus, “turn the other cheek,” suggests not allowing oneself to be struck by the back of the hand and can signify not being helpless but being active in nonviolent resistance without seeking revenge or retaliation. Perhaps this teaching carries a frightening meaning. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
