If I Want to Build Wealth Without Taking Extreme Risks, What Should I Do.

I've been wondering the exact same thing as I try to navigate this simulation, especially since the market movements can look so intense some days. From what I've been reading in the forum guides, some people suggest looking at well-established consumer goods or banking stocks that tend to pay steady dividends rather than chasing volatile stocks. But since I'm still trying to wrap my head around diversification, how do other beginners here usually balance their simulated portfolios without taking on too much stress?
