Our emotions drive our behaviour and our behaviour drives our decisions.

When you are upset and emotionally charged, you cannot think clearly and make unwise decisions.

When you feel joy, you feel secured and you make wise choices.

I thought that I was very calm and knowledgeable, especially given that I speak about this daily with the work I do.

However, during the depths of the market in 2008 and 2009, I remembered that I was rushing to buy and sell KeppelCorp (where my wife was working at) and any news about it brought the feelings of greed and anxiety at the same time. As the investment amount grew larger, the emotional roller coaster got stronger.

In the end, I was left with a bad investment experience and bad outcome.

Those of you who had some experience of trying to trade stocks will know what I am talking about.

There are much better ways to invest and get you to your best life with peace of mind using CORE strategies!
