The lowest-level people chase gains and losses all day, focusing only on the present.

The slightly better ones engage in trend investing, grasping medium to long-term trends.

The top-level investors look at cycles, measuring returns over five or even ten years.

Therefore, we shouldn't compare ourselves with those short-term traders; what we need to do is leverage trend investing to earn our first significant wealth in life, and then move closer to top-level investors. This way, you can become part of the elite group in society, the so-called upper class.
