Even dreams can wait

I canceled my reservation in a seminar on stocks trading scheduled next week. First, the schedule conflicted with my work schedule. I can't request for a leave because I have had already lots of leaves used. Second, I still don't have the needed starting capital. I didn't know the long wait to financial freedom is this painfully excruciating. You know the feeling when you know you can do so much if only you had the resources to start things up. Days are damn too long. Maybe I need to learn the patience and diligence I really much needed in order to stick to my goals.

For the meantime, I familiarized myself with the stock market. I joined the online trading game. I chose the most active stocks in such industries as coal mining, power and a bit of banking. When I came across this article, i realized hey, I'm on the right track! A friend mentioned about a seminar on technical detail on stocks trading. Meaning there's actually a technical method to aid in the trading decisions. Again, for now I think I still don't need these seminars when I know I'll just forget them when I won't be able to apply them in the near future. So far, I have a positive virtual portfolio, which brings me back to my original issue. If only I had that damn capital.

My mutual fund hasn't recovered yet since the market downtrend last week. Maybe I joined at the peak and what I'm experiencing now is the frequent downtrend the market will be facing this coming weeks - or months - whatever the reaction of the market in the coming elections. I am planning to buy shares again when the market will experience the downtrend days before the elections. This time, I'm eying on FAMI as it is more promising against market volatility. Still, I have no immediate plans to pull out my shares in ATR unless the share price rise drastically. A 50% profit within the year probably. Who knows, anything can happen, right?

To divert myself from these thoughts while I'm waiting for my needed capital, maybe I'll be actively seeking jobs again in the next days. I do have a job currently but I didn't see any career growth in my future. Lots of politics and stuffs. It came to a point where coming to office is such a pain.

I'm still seeing better days ahead despite these hurdles though.

Follow your heart, but be quiet for a while first. Ask questions, then feel the answer. Learn to trust your heart.
