It's not unusual to have people try to support their positions with their opinions. What you need to force yourself to do is argue against your positions or listen to arguments against your opinions. I've done this for years. I tend to be bullish therefore I spend a lot of time listening to the arguments on the bearish side. That said, regardless of your positions, you have to do what is prudent to protect principle. I invest over a wide range of assets regardless of my personal thoughts on what sector will outperform and let the market tell me what it wants to do, I don't try to be smart enough to guess where price will go. I use my own emotions as a contrary indicator. I hated RE back when we were buying it. I love it now, so we're selling some. I'm holding a little because I want to be invested over a wide range of assets. People who have shunned the stock and bond markets in order to invest everything in RE are just as short sighted as those who shunned RE to put everything in Nasdaq back in the 90s.
