Why We Procrastinate Investing And How to Overcome It.

We all know and struggle with procrastination, particularly starting our investing journey.

Many of us know that it’s the best way for us to achieve our financial goals, but yet we still put off making our first investment.

A major reason we put off investing is because we’re "afraid of losing money."

This is known as "loss aversion", a cognitive bias in which we tend to prefer avoiding losses, even if it will give substantial profits in the future.
