To learn #swimming, one need to be comfortable going subcutaneous. One needs to be comfortable breathing out under water. Until one does that once can't swim properly.
It's part of the swimming process.
1) Breathe in outside
2) take your face under water breathe out gradually
3) use your hands & legs to propel forward
4) pull your face outside water
5) Repeat
Most green horns focus on other things, not doing step 2 for the fear of drowning. Ironically, it is the step 2 which will help them the most in not drowning and swimming efficiently.
Same holds for #investing. One needs to be comfortable with losses. It is the nature of the beast to be volatile, to shrug you off, before it moves ahead. As an investor, one needs to focus on one's process; losses being part of it.
Lay Investors stay away from investing bcos of the fear of losing, in turn settling for sub par returns on their savings. Learn the investing process, & then take calculated risks.
