Olympics - 2016
Novak Djokovic – losing in the 1st
round
Willian Sisters – Losing early in their
doubles match
Abhinav Bindra – Losing a medal by a
whisker
Archery team – losing by a point
Gymnastics – Athletes breaking their
legs while competing, and still smiling after.
When medals are decided by a ‘decimal
point’ in shooting & by an arrow in ‘archery’…there is nothing to look back
at. It’s the best one could do against all odds.
In reality, it may be their bad luck on
that day. Else, all of them are great sportsmen / women, competing at the
highest level in their chosen sport.
At the end, some don’t get a second
chance to win a medal; but their sporting journey in itself a great ‘Life Medal’.
But, or investing journey is not so
ruthless. It provides us with some enormous opportunities all thorough one’s
life. We just need to pick the right, ‘Medal of Opportunity’.
A decimal point or 1 point in
differential returns will not let us down for life. We will still be quite good
at Money Life as long as we choose the appropriate ‘Medal of Opportunity’.
It’s only that, most focus on a decimal
point & miss the broad target completely.
If we focus on the target, decimal
points don’t matter.
