To secure long-term happiness and the welfare of loved ones, this is also the time to make tight financial plans and leverage the potential of equity stocks to the maximum. Navratri is celebrated to honour Goddess Durga, whose various incarnations embody unique characteristics and teach us values for leading an ideal life.

Here are nine crucial equity lessons you must focus on this Navratri. 

1. Set smart financial goals

The first avatar of the goddess is Maa Shailaputri. She denotes awakening to begin the journey from the roots in the quest to achieve goals. Investors must start their journey with defined investment objectives. They must classify their financial goals.

2. Develop discipline

The second avatar of the goddess, Maa Brahmacharini, denotes calmness and dedication. She teaches investors the virtue of discipline in investing. The skill requires regular saving and investing, delayed gratification, spending frugally, etc.
