The market always moves in cycles of ups and downs, and nothing lasts forever. Each growth phase must face corrections and downturns, as the natural law of change. A cycle cannot last indefinitely, and that change is something we all need to accept.
When entering the market, we always dream of being able to earn a lot of profit, but the important thing is not always to seek growth opportunities, but to know when to stop, when to realize that we have enough. In bull markets, when asset values continuously soar, the feeling of victory and excitement can lead us astray, making us forget safety rules. But once the wave has peaked, a sudden downturn can come quickly, and if we do not know when to stop, we will pay a high price.
There are those who have gone through strong bull markets, earning huge profits, but when the cycle ends, they not only lose all that they have earned but also fall into heavy losses, even losing their principal. The price to pay for greed, for not having a clear strategy, for not knowing what is enough, is incredibly high.
We often get caught up in the whirlwind of the market, where each decision can change a fortune. However, what is more important is having enough clarity and rationality to realize that nothing is forever. Safety is not when you can earn the most, but when you can protect what you have, when you know enough not to be greedy, when you realize the true value of patience and long-term strategy.
The market will not only have favorable times, but there will also be unpredictable fluctuations. What we can do is prepare our mindset well, clearly define our goals, and build a solid plan. Do not let the bull market pass by, where you not only fail to retain the money you have earned but also face significant losses. Always remember that, in the market, nothing is certain forever, and it is the calmness in difficult times that will be the decisive factor for long-term success.
Therefore, in each cycle, ask yourself, "Have I had enough? Am I being too greedy?" Only when we know enough, know when to stop, can the market truly become a tool to help us build sustainable financial stability. Take advantage of prosperous times, but also do not forget to prepare for difficult times. Only then will we not regret at the end of each cycle and always maintain control in our hands.
