Patience in Trading is a Double-Edged Sword

This week I did not trade for any stocks or securities. I am currently researching potential stocks which I can invest in later this coming week; however, I am debating on whether or not to sell my IBM stock. I am not too pleased with its performance, as it seems to be slightly anchoring down my portfolio. I suppose the learning curve is still in effect.  I now know that patience in the stock market can be a double-edged sword
