The Importance of Confident Investing

Long term investing is much like running a marathon. When athletes train for endurance sports, mental preparation is equally as important as physical training. When it comes to investment decisions, deciding on a strategy is only part of the process. You must also execute without second guessing. This takes just as much training as stock picking, reacting to the tape or filtering analysts’ reports.

Way of the Turtle

The narrator had much more confidence in the system than the other traders had. He was not afraid of the pullbacks his mentors told him would occur. He sized up when the framework advised. He cut losses ruthlessly when they veered away from the system’s predetermined benchmarks.

The system used in the book has been eclipsed, but the lesson remains the same for any system: The confidence to follow the system is much more important than any arbitrary measure of talent.
