Your discipline is genuinely heroic — the market crashes and you don't flinch, everyone panics and you stay calm. The problem is you use that same "faith" to clutch a stock whose fundamentals rotted out long ago, because "selling means losing." You can't always tell the difference between "long-term conviction" and "refusing to admit you're stuck." Your most-used phrase: "Diamond hands, never surrender."

The biases pulling your strings

Loss Aversion

Selling at a loss feels so painful you'd rather hold forever than realize it.

Endowment Effect

You overvalue what you hold simply because it's yours.

One way to fight it: Discipline is a strength, but discipline isn't the same as refusing to look at new evidence. Periodically ask: if I discovered this stock today, would I still buy it?
