Staying Calm in Chaos

1. Oil below $0

2. Opportunity in financial markets during covid times

3. Staying Calm Through Time Pattern & by being Rational in Decision Making

 

Few unplanned things

Life is not a straight line & surely it won’t be, most of times we want our life to keep moving smoothly but now & then there are a lot of unplanned things which happens in life & what you do & how you handle those things define your way to success or failure

Stock Trading is one thing where every day something unplanned occurs, how many people have read about   oil going below $0, I don’t think we have any book that has article of commodity going below zero dollar, recently a lot of traders & investors got shocked, last year when screen showed value below zero. Few Left trading forever, few started to make allegation against govt, manipulation etc, few made excuses whereas few people have added another lesson in their dictionary & they will be more prepared next time & moved on….

 

Contra Thinking

We all know about Herd Mentality that people can be influenced by their peers to adopt certain behavior  on a largely emotional rather than rational bias . It’s a very common practice what we hear from others we start making our own stories without any rational bias and mostly humans are attracted towards half empty glass rather than half full. This is where contra thinking based on experience, skills, and rational bias helps not to follow herd mentality & find opportunity

I still remember one day in March where it was bloodbath in stock market as if covid will stay forever in our lives  
& all businesses  will be shutting down forever , but any rational man could have used the opportunity to get away from herd mentality & done value investing at some unbelievable low prices. Finally it turned out to be one of best ever year for investors where markets given amazing returns. So important to think rationally rather than emotionally during tough times.

 

Staying Calm in chaos

Be calm in chaos, easier said than done.  But there is a way out & this is called rational thinking & time pattern. There are few things, sometimes  how hard you keep on trying sometimes it doesn’t work, it only goes from bad to worse. But on the other hand scientifically it’s proven, if you can be rational & follow consistent time pattern, it will be helpful for you to stay calm in chaos.

Whenever I face some tough situation, few things which  really helps  me, first one is to absorb everything rather than react, secondly keep following your time pattern for different activities, it helps to avoid overemphasize on one particular thing & thirdly most important is to find solution to problem by thinking rationally rather than emotionally. Staying calm requires skills   and it is by-product of how you master own emotions, perceptions, beliefs, discipline and your own psychology.
