Fitness/Fighting | Trading🧜🏼‍♂️

[Johnno🔱 @CenturionJF]

4 years ago at the age of 20, I stepped into the ring for my first amateur kickboxing fight - the fight was at 73kg, only 6/7kg lower than my "𝙬𝙖𝙡𝙠 𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙬𝙚𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩".

What should have been a relatively easy weight cut, turned into a hellish 8 weeks of near starvation💀

Fast forward to present day, I am 3 weeks out from my sixth fight which is in the same weight category as my first bout...

and I am now a couple of inches taller and possess a naturally bigger frame and am well on track to hit weight whilst feeling (𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜📷) the best shape of my life.

As Socrates once said: "𝗔𝗱𝗺𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻𝗲'𝘀 𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝗰𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗹𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲." 🧠

After that first hellish experience I knew that I had to get 𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗟 and delve deeper into how the professionals would do it if I wanted to have any sort of longevity & success in my fighting career.

So, 𝗙𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗬𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗦 & 𝗦𝗜𝗫 𝗙𝗜𝗚𝗛𝗧𝗦 later - here are the main things that I have learned:

People saying it’s just the weather - this has come exclusively from planes flying past.

Have been feeling like shit the past few weeks as well, does anyone know how to protect ourselves from whatever bullshit they are spraying???

How would a Restore Britain Government support small businesses? First step, and possibly the most important. We understand the problems and trust me, I know how difficult it is. I’ve been there, I’ve done it. The effort that goes into keeping a small firm profitable and operational is vast, and NOBODY in Government understands that.

THE most important way to help small businesses is tax.

GET IT DOWN. Corporation tax - we should be aiming for the lowest in Europe. Undercut our neighbours, take their business. Be ruthless. Make Britain the most attractive place to operate on the continent. Watch how the money then flows in.

Rates will slashed on income and dividend, thresholds pushed up. We must urgently reward success. NI not raised, but cut. If we want businesses to hire, MAKE IT CHEAPER.

Because what happens when employment gets more expensive?

Costs get passed on. Contracts stall. Hiring cancelled. Investment is paused. It grinds the economy to a halt. Businesses stop spending money. They wait and see.

Everyone suffers.

IR35 will go in the bin on day one. Things change, contracts change, circumstances change. IR35 accounts for none of that, adding layers of unnecessary paperwork and regulation. Flexibility matters.

VAT threshold would be doubled. There are so many businesses hovering just under £90k, desperately avoiding VAT. Fair enough, I don’t blame them. So let’s hike the threshold and unleash that demand. We would like to see a tax holiday for small businesses in the first few years - give them the breathing space they need to grow and find their feet.

HMRC will pick up the phone, and you will be able to speak to an advisor who can actually speak fluent English. What a mad shock that would be...

We will end the HR-ification of Britain that is used to blackmail employers. Regulatory frameworks that are used to suffocate small businesses will be burnt away.

Farage attacks private sector employees working from home. I couldn’t give a shit where people choose to work. If the employer and employee are happy, then it’s none of our business.

Failing public sector officials? Different story.

Business rates for small businesses, abolished. We will brutally crack down on illicit trading - does Britain need so many Turkish barbers and vape shops? The answer, quite obviously, is no. Let’s be honest about what’s really often going on here. Money laundering.

There would be free car parking in high streets all over Britain. These little gnomes in councils have no idea. If parking is free at the retail parks, people will just go there. Let’s encourage them back into our high streets - that means tackling crime too, obviously, but one step a time here...

Licensing laws, planning bureaucracy, council red tape.

We will obliterate it all.

Let’s back British hospitality. Cut VAT, business rates abolished and burn back the endless nonsense they have to deal with. Ease laws on closing times and fast-track permits for outdoor seating. If people want to enjoy a late night drink or two, it's none of our business to tell them otherwise.

Restore Britain will put those jumped-up little council bastards back in their box. I promise you that.

Inheritance tax will be abolished. If a family wants to pass their business down the generations, then Government must not stand in the way. Tax has been paid, there should not be another bill following a death. It’s wicked and cruel.

Above all else - businesses need stable, long term thinking. The Budget should be a complete non-event, other than further tax cuts.

This can all be funded by brutalising down the fraudulent state that has become the enemy of the people.

And let me tell you this. ANYBODY who gets business will understand that these measures will pay for themselves many times over. If we reward hard work, then we’ll get more of it. More tax will be paid, and the economy will boom.

These are just my initial thoughts on what a Restore Britain Government would do.

We would create an environment in which it's easy to do business, and then we would leave you the hell alone.

The message is this to small business owners...

Restore Britain is on your side.

You finally have a political party that will fight for your interests.

Crazy fake breakdowns on the Nasdaq & Ark Innovation ETF.

Nasdaq is now back above the horizontal S/R level and above the 150 day moving average - no other way to look at that other than bullish af.

Ark still has some work to do to get back above the moving average...

“-£1200?! But that’s nearly 75% of my account…”

Sitting in the work van on my lunch break at my minimum wage landscaping job, I checked my trading account to see that the position I had taken in a questionable, unprofitable penny stock had cratered -80% in aftermarket trading and I was set to be down more than a month’s wage in 𝗢𝗡𝗘 𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗗𝗘.

The picture below was taken pretty much right after I had closed the position and realised the loss – dead behind the eyes and in a whole lot of pain.

The funny thing is the previous week I had followed a Twitter tipster’s advice on entering a position on a similar company and had made £650 – I thought I was the best “trader” alive.

I began to plot out what I was going to do with my fortunes that I would make from the stock market, because in my head success was 𝗜𝗡𝗘𝗩𝗜𝗧𝗔𝗕𝗟𝗘.

It's always interesting looking back on moments like this and realising just how naïve we can be…

In reality I knew 𝗡𝗢𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗚.

No 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙜𝙮

no 𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙝𝙣𝙞𝙦𝙪𝙚

no 𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙠 𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙖𝙜𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩

Simply going all in, with all of the money I had managed to save up, on a company solely on the say so of a snake oil salesman from a random trading forum.

I can still feel the pain from that moment like it was yesterday.

Luckily, however, I’ve never had it in me to quit at the first setback – if anything, I knew that it would set a fire underneath me.

I realised a few things straight off the bat:

1.) This approach of mindless gambling would lead to nothing other than complete financial ruin.

2.) People 𝗔𝗥𝗘 making money from trading stocks, so it must be possible.

3.) To be one of these successful people I would have to learn for myself and develop a tried and tested approach that I am able to prove 𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗨𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗬 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗞𝗦.

So, my journey began.

I read countless books....

spent hours listening to podcasts and watching YouTube tutorials and seminars....

bought different courses all offering their own “golden goose” strategies......

I spent hours in front of the screen examining price charts – stocks, currency pairs, commodities, currency pairs…

I made money and became jubilant; I then lost it all again and felt that familiar feeling of despair.

I travelled down this uncertain road for over four years, but one thing was certain – I never gave up.

Today, although still not perfect (who is?) I feel massively grateful for that fateful day where I lost most of my savings in one trade, as it led me on this journey which has led me to the destination of being a consistently profitable trader.

The pursuit of self-improvement led me to meeting G’s like @TheEdPill and the fantastic community he has built in The Money Dojo.

Now, alongside some other 𝗞𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗘𝗥𝗦 doing their own thing in trading, we have decided to start the 𝑺𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒐𝒃𝒊 𝑻𝒓𝒂𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑫𝒐𝒋𝒐🥷...

Our sole intention to ensure others do not fall into the same trap I and so many others have when starting out with trading or investing.

We target consistent profits through risk-managed swing trades, which allow you to make money alongside us whilst spending MINIMUM time in front of a screen.

The best bit about this? It’s 𝘼𝘽𝙎𝙊𝙇𝙐𝙏𝙀𝙇𝙔 𝙁𝙍𝙀𝙀 for the next 48 hours.

We currently have a thriving community with over 45 members, and in the last 2 months we have comfortably out-performed the S&P500 & NASDAQ indices. If you had followed our trades so far risking our recommended 3% per trade, your account would be up over 15% 💸

One lesson that seems to be prevalent in all things that I pursue in life is this:

Succeeding is never an accident and isn't something that can be gifted - it's EARNED through hard work & perseverance.

You've got to become a lifelong student and sacrifice for that end goal that you need to hold in your heart throughout the duration of the journey.

Yes, you can go alone - but finding a network of likeminded individuals is the key to achieving more than you ever thought possible, in half as long as you first thought would be required.

I absolutely love trading, and all the challenges that come with it and I am absolutely ecstatic at the prospect of helping others succeed alongside me, together with my team in 𝑺𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒐𝒃𝒊 𝑻𝒓𝒂𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑫𝒐𝒋𝒐🥷.

@BoloScout Yes my man🤝🏽

[Johnno🔱 @CenturionJF]

Focused solely on training martial arts for the past 3 years - hitting pads, running, sparring etc.

After my last fight I was fed up of feeling “weak” so decided to make some big changes to the training regime.

Have went from struggling to squat 60+ kg a few weeks ago to 90kg (10kg over body weight) moving nicely after a hard leg session.

Already noticing big changes in my energy levels, motivation, libido etc…excited to see where I can take this in the coming months 💪🏽

Drive to your local supermarket

Fill up a cart (you'll need it) with 10kg of steak

Now imagine that amount of meat 𝐅𝐔𝐒𝐄𝐃 to your frame

THANK GOD what you're attempting isn't gonna happen:

Do your strength training

Eat at a mild surplus

With time you'll earn those slabs of granite muscle...

[Johnno🔱 @CenturionJF]

It could potentially be too much - will see how I go the next month or two, but would like to avoid burnout as it's similar training load to a fight camp which isn't ideal over too long a timeframe.

Thank you though bro appreciate that!

Maybe we sacrifice speed to allow for shotgun-strength body kicks capable of putting holes in the sturdiest of foes 🤔

[Johnno🔱 @CenturionJF]

Shadow boxing in the mirror is NECESSARY.

Why?

Well of course it allows you to observe your technique and improve your stance etc etc….

However

It also is a great time to remind yourself that in every endeavour it’s you vs you

And you should be winning EVERY TIME 🤜🏽
