Failure Doesn't Exist
"If you fail on Monday, the only way it's a failure on Monday is if you decide to not progress from that." That's why failure is non-existent. If I fail today, I'm going to learn something from that failure and try again on Tuesday, try again on Wednesday."
An incredible four minutes of learning. Process over outcome - I believe this is the appropriate mindset to have with money. Don't engage out of sheer greediness to get rich nor out of being intimidated with 'failing.' Engage to learn, to compound that learning, and set yourself up for a lifetime of fulfillment where money is used as a tool to support various endeavors. Without any engagement or intellectual curiosity (while preferably as young as possible), it becomes more and more difficult to leverage money to your advantage.
Start early. Stumble, make mistakes. Seek out mentors. Experience the euphoria of buying stocks. Feel the pain that usually comes at some point in time. Learn and move forward. Test and re-test. Proactively seek feedback and apply those leanings.
And when the work is put in to achieve goals and milestones, be humble because the story continues. Don't sit on that first championship.
