“It’s because I still don’t fully understand my own business”
“Why isn’t my faith in my own strategy stronger?”
“Why can’t I be certain about my own venture?”
I kept turning it over in my head.
=> Maybe it’s because I still haven’t studied enough.
Sure, I’ve built out 13 strategies and assembled what might honestly be a once-in-a-generation masterpiece — a quant portfolio I’m genuinely proud of.
But if I sit down and really chew through each of those 13 strategies one by one — what each one means, where it falls short, how they create synergy with one another — and study them carefully, then I’ll come to see, naturally, just how remarkable a thing I’ve actually built. And once that happens, the [doubt] in my heart will dissolve on its own.
Similar moments
I’ve been here before, in plenty of forms: driving in Seoul, switching jobs, finding a place to live, company projects, the military, university coursework, taking a leave of absence, going abroad, job hunting, starting something of my own. Every single time, I didn’t run. I went back to zero, started studying from scratch, absorbed what I needed, and came out the other side. And every single time, it ended up becoming bedrock — fuel for whatever came next.
In other words: belief is forged in sweat.
So What? Alright — back to zero, with that mindset.
