Working with many investment specialists it’s a repeated story…reminding us what make’s for success?
It isn’t the school you went to, or your economic background
The hidden edge is self-awareness
In investing, you are not just analysing the world.
Your judgement, experience, biases, thesis and emotions – all shape every decision you make.
And under pressure, that filter becomes distorted.
That is why emotional intelligence matters. It both highlights and diminishes these distortions.
It helps you understand:
- Which beliefs can help and which distort
- How stress affects what you see, feel and decide
- How your emotions and internal state influence your judgement
In the current climate, this is not a soft advantage, it’s a serious one.
Most people don’t realise this is what’s holding them back.
Until they fix it.
As one of my clients recently said:
“EQ coaching has been my best investment to date.”
