The money you have in the market now is insignificant, trust me

You’ll make so much just a few years out being from Kearney that a one day move in 5 years will be the size of your portfolio today

Everything will be alright. Just learn from your mistakes and avoid trading to be honest. Been there done there - lost then gained then lost then gained and then left it totally in a time frame of~8 years.

When do I begin adjusting? It’s been 4 months. I joined as an associate and I feel like sometimes my work is sloppy or I’m overwhelmed. I’ve gotten feedback that I’m making progress but that sounds fake. I’ve also gotten feedback that my work is sometimes sloppy. The last report I helped write had a ton of write ups on it. Feels like I’m about to get fired.

Do I just make something else up entirely?
