Invest with a long-term attitude. In other words, don't check your 401k balance every day and panic if it is lower than the day before. Invest, keep investing and plan on looking at it 30 years down the road when you're ready to retire.
The market and your investments are going to have gains and losses. Over the long-term you will come out ahead.
