3 Principles of Successful Investors (UPDATED)

Are you one of those investors for whom things just seem to always work out well? 

Getting superior long term returns seems to take little effort. Whatever strategy you use seems to eventually work. You don't spend much time or effort, yet most of the time you are feeling quite confident about your investments.

Or are you the type of investor who always seems to struggle? 

It seems everything you buy goes down right after you buy. When you finally sell, they take off. And the investments you hold long term mostly underperform.

We have often encountered both these types of investors. Struggling investors are far more common. They usually have trouble believing that many investors outperform with little effort. Those that find investing effortless just shake their heads at the frantic activity of struggling investors. This applies to both professional and amateur investors.
