**The Human Mind**

Unfortunately, the human mind is inherently opposed to the investor mindset. The two are at enmity with one another. An untrained mind that chooses to become [involved with investments](https://sapphirecrypto.org/2022/07/31/investing-the-dual-objective/) can only last so long. If the market turns against such an investor, [they consider exiting the market and calling it a day](https://sapphirecrypto.org/2022/07/23/the-emotional-cycle-of-a-bear-market-cycle/). Reasoning that it wasn’t for them, or that it is simply a waste of time.

However, recent price action within the Crypto market has revealed how markets seem to exhaust investors almost perfectly. If making any [investment](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-investment) was a given certainty, everyone would become dedicated investors. However, it is this very aspect that manages to discourage the majority. Uncertainty can be equated with a “window of opportunity”. Once an investment becomes a “sure thing” life-changing gains have already been made.

Uncertainty that is complimented by additional fundamental dynamics can create an opportunity that carries a high probability of success. These dynamics often change from cycle to cycle, and [identifying future trends and events](https://sapphirecrypto.org/2023/01/18/the-rise-of-ai-a-changing-world/) can be very effective in isolating current “uncertainty” which has a high probability of future success. Most new investors are essentially looking for a level of certainty.

However, this is not really the approach that secures the gains that matter. This is the approach often taken by a very conservative fund manager. The returns on such an investment are essentially at the very bottom of the spectrum. This is primarily due to the [risk](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-risk) profile being extremely low. As certainty increases, [the risk decreases, and with it the potential gains](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-risk-reward-ratio). Simply diving into a risky investment isn’t the solution either.

**The Puzzle**

Investment is like a puzzle that is made up of [numerous “pieces” or dynamics](https://sapphirecrypto.org/2023/01/14/important-dynamics-at-play-to-understand-this-pump/) that ultimately provide a high probability of success. I have noted how many noobs often manage to “get hold” of a single piece of the puzzle, believing it to be the golden thread that will eventually secure future success. However, a puzzle is made up of more than one piece, and while you may be holding an “authentic” piece of the puzzle, it is powerless in isolation.

It’s funny how [confluence always manages to emerge within the world of investments](https://sapphirecrypto.org/2022/08/19/do-you-understand-the-hierarchy-of-the-market/). Confirmation is imperative, whether it be for [trading](https://sapphirecrypto.org/2022/10/31/trading-securing-consistent-profits/), investing, or identifying income-generating opportunities. The puzzle always needs to be completed, in order to see the “image of probability”. [The term FUD](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-fear-uncertainty-doubt-fud) (fear, uncertainty & doubt) incorporates the element of uncertainty. Historically, entering the market when the fear and greed index is at extreme fear, and simultaneously great uncertainty is generally a good move.

Uncertainty has a way of flushing out a certain type of investor. This often has a way of creating [tremendous opportunities](https://sapphirecrypto.org/2022/11/20/solana-still-a-potential-investment/). This is yet another “short-term” example of how uncertainty is often at the heart of a good entry, or investment. However, as mentioned earlier, simply acting on this aspect, void of the appropriate puzzle pieces doesn’t work either.

**Final Thoughts**

The aspect of uncertainty will often scare many investors away. However, if you have managed to get a hold of the puzzle pieces, you are in a “privileged” position to be able to see the “picture of probability”. Making investment decisions with this in your favor can provide you with a tremendous edge, and ultimately secure [future success](https://sapphirecrypto.org/2022/07/09/the-number-one-rule-that-governs-crypto-success/).
