Have you failed in your investment? This is not because you are dim-witted. Like Sir Isaac Newton, you have not yet gained the emotional discipline which a booming investment business needs. Being an intelligent investor requires more character than brains. Besides giving contemplation to one's loss of life, considering the forfeiture of one's possessions is also sensible. Just as you will one day part ways with your dearest and nearest, so is it with you and your assets. Whatever might come across your mind, in a deep sense these things don't belong to you, be it pension, house etc. This holds the reason why stoics imply that we should only regard ourselves as stewards rather than owners of wealth. To stoics, considering what we have makes sense, rather than thinking on what we want but can't have. Instead, we should be in appreciation of what we have and considering how much we would miss that particular thing should it disappear. This is because, in the long run, we will not only appreciate those things more. We will also take the necessary steps to lessen any chance of the short term loss. Let us look at some of the stoical approaches to thinking.
