1. Take the rough with the smooth

Timing the market is notoriously difficult, even for the most experienced investor. People often focus on trying to dodge the bad days but fail to realise that missing even a few of the best days can be equally damaging. The largest gains tend to occur during periods of extreme volatility and often follow large sell-offs. During these episodes inexperienced investors panic sell or just sit on the side lines. The key lesson is that to be a successful investor it's often better to take the rough with the smooth rather than trying to play the market in search of a quick profit.
