5 ways to beat stock market burnout

Good morning!

There’s a bit of green on the screen this morning at long last.

And that’s got me thinking.

Be honest.

Are you facing stock market burnout?

You are not alone if you are.

Here are a few thoughts …

Market burnout hits every investor and trader differently

If you're consistently asking "where's the next hot stock" but can't seem to find one... you may be burning out.

If you're struggling to maintain focus or flitting from one headline to the next and making kneejerk decision when you do... you may be burning out.

If stocks that used to be your friend have become your enemy... you may be burning out.

If you cannot find a path to profits... you may be burning out.

If you let out a long guttural sigh when you open up your laptop or look at your account statement and can't make a decision about what's for dinner... you may be burning out.

We tell ourselves that "it's part of what we do" but that's not right.

Burnout can wipe you out.

It's critical not to let that happen and to find a way back if it has already.

Here are 5 quick things you can do immediately to beat market burnout.

1 - Get your emotions and your ego OUT of the equation.

Emotions are cannon fodder for bigger, better capitalized traders whose sole purpose in life is to separate you from your money.

2 - Discipline all the time, not just when it's convenient.

People talk about possibilities but probabilities are what count. Plan to invest/trade then invest/trade the plan.

Flying by the seat of your pants will not end well.

3 - Slow down your buying and keep risk low BEFORE you buy.

People get into trouble because they put too much money at work at the wrong time.

If you're losing sleep, that's on you, not the markets.

4 - All investments involve risk but not all risks are worth the investment.

There's a big difference between world-class investors and traders and those who are the "ticker hunters."

Know who you are or somebody else will make that determination for you.

5 - Capitalize on chaos!

Chaos creates opportunity; the trick is being able to run into the fight when everybody else wants to run from it.

Buffett says to buy when others are fearful. Templeton urged buying when others are selling despondently. Both made billions.

You can too!

Like it or not, it's normal to feel fear or uncertainty but that's different from burnout. Both can be overcome.

Recognizing burnout is the first step.

Preventing it or recovering from it is the second.

I know.

I've lived it.

Because of that, I can say confidently, I know how to push through this.

It's no coincidence I want to help.

Helping people approach the markets is what I do every day.

I do it because I love it. And, because some pretty smart people around the world tell me that I may actually be pretty dang good at it.

This is the turning point.

Millions of people are giving up on the markets and, unwittingly their financial future, because they're burnt out at the worst possible moment.

There is ALWAYS a path forward!

99.9% of all investors and traders don’t understand the concept which is why they’re still – even after all the selling so far - throwing good money after bad and chasing hot stocks. Most are playing not to lose.

The pros are doing things differently, selectively, and very deliberately because they know what happens when the selling stops. They’re playing to win.

There is no doubt in my mind YOU can too! (Learn More Now)

It’s a subtle but critically important nuance.

Thinking like this can change the way you invest and trade.

If you're happy with your results, that's great.

If not, I’m here.

WE are here.

Thank you for being part of the 5 with Fitz and for giving me the opportunity to do something I am passionate about.

Now, and as always, let’s finish the week strong.

You really do got this!
