Managing the Boring Parts of the Investing Journey

When investors reach a point where they feel their investment strategy is on autopilot, they may start feeling a need to do something more, triggering a natural reaction to see financial independence. However, this phase can be challenging as the excitement of setting up financial goals wanes, and the longer-term vision may seem further away, leading to a feeling of needing to achieve more. The key is to set medium and longer-term financial goals to maintain motivation and avoid the temptation to constantly change investment plans, focusing on the habit of investing and celebrating milestones along the journey.
