As a Trader, you will eventually mature into the mindset that all of your actions, planning, lifestyle changes are moving you towards a life without Trading.
Eventually, you will get the epiphany that your task is to get to a net worth that removes the need to trade. Your money works for you, on autopilot.
No real estate, no businesses, no employees, no sales, no concern for competition, no energy wasting pursuits for significance.
Fixed income on a well-earned knot... most never get this.
Be the exception, work towards it.
Trading is so hard , I won’t lie to you .
Been trading for 8 years straight, this game is not for the weak.
During profitable days you will be on top of the world , no formal job will be making sense to you
During unprofitable days , you will be questioning yourself if this is really worth it , are you wasting your time or not . You might even admire those doing 9-5
During rainy days , may you never give up
34 years ago, from today...
I was working 6 days a week. My net pay, per week, was less than $300.00. I was single, recently divorced and no children.
I was sick of the rat race, being broke, tired of being tired of it all.
Then Trading walked back into the chat...
When you feel like it is hard or too difficult...
Remind yourself that you are probably asking for more than is required.
Find a price that seems so obvious to reach for, and aim for it.
If you can't locate or determine that, sit still.
This will correct 80% of your troubles.
