There is a virtuous element to resisting and holding strong on a position, but there’s a wisdom element to know that enormous tidal movements cannot be influenced by a few tiny data points and at some point you’re just harming yourself and nothing more.

The key part is having the good judgement and maturity to see when that point is.

I can’t disagree with that. There’s also wisdom in realizing that we are the tide.
