In Sanskrit, the word 'Guru' means, 'a person who removes, one from the darkness'.

If you prefer to be the Guru of of your Investment Portfolio, i.e. removing darkness from it - some guiding lights to follow...

Understand yourself & your relationship with money.

Have Patience. Good things happen, eventually.

Be Disciplined. 'Drunken investing can be intoxicating, but it also erodes wealth & health'.

Never invest with an impulse.

Have Fear. Yes, a good fear of not reaching your targeted requirements in life.

Ignore Tips & Tippers.

Take corrective actions, as & when needed (everyone makes mistakes).

Happy, 'Full Moon Investing' (on this Guru Pournami, day)
