Be very patient, start small, and don't invest beyond your training (aka don't get in over your head).
First and foremost, invest in your own investing education.
Investing in stocks can be a fruitful and enjoyable journey and you are off to a great start by asking questions and seeking advice.
The first thing I want you to hear right now is: BE PATIENT
I encourage you to focus more on learning early on and when you do start investing, do so slowly and with small amounts.
