Your best trading/investment advice?

Although a great trader/investor never relies on tips and advice in the market, there is still somewhere a piece of advice that he/she would have received/read that has helped him/her to be a conscious trader and control his/her trading game.

There are tons of sentiments, emotions, etc. that become a part of our trades which ideally should be kicked out with discipline.
