Pullbacks Build The Next Higher High

  • Pullbacks create the support needed for future breakthroughs, even when they initially feel disappointing.
  • New territory forces you to learn navigation, negotiation, and your weaknesses in real time.
ADVICE

  • Zoom out from immediate emotional noise and evaluate your life on a monthly, yearly, or longer timeframe.
  • A massive short-term decline may still represent a higher low within a strong overall trend.
