One of the best lessons I ever learned from my dad was about patience. And this is where it's about patience in general. Having enough patience to, you know, let something develop and become what it needs to become. Give it the time that it's going to need to take to get where it needs to be. But then also, and this is really important part, is knowing when to be impatient and say, okay, there's been enough time. Things aren't working now. We need to stop and reassess or maybe stop and change direction altogether. And that's been. It's. That's proven to be a very valuable lesson because if you let things go on beyond a reasonable point, you're just wasting time, and that's huge. You don't want to be wasting time because wasted time is wasted money. It's wasted life. So if your trading's gone on, you know, been going on for a long time, and it's still not where you want it to be, ask yourself, do I need to stop and reassess or possibly even change direction altogether?
