"Conviction in analysis is critical. Position sizing will allow you to sit patiently through the pull backs. Every good stock pulls back on multiple occasions. But most people head for the doorway at the first sign of trouble. Learn to deal with it. Don't get shaken out. Having one good year is fun but having a great decade is a lot better. If you want to grow wealth, you must understand that money is made in the sitting, not in the trading." - Random tweet on Twitter
