One thing that hit me when I first started trading
making $200 a day as a trader felt like a small amount of money...
BUT
making $200 a day working a job feels like a lot
I realized its because we correlate time to money
when you go to work there's a specific amount of time you are getting paid for
in trading you don’t get paid for time
you get paid for decisions
trading more does not equal more money
you could trade for 1 hour and make 10x the money you made at your job
that's why you don't value seeing numbers go up on a screen
It’s “easy” money but you need to understand…
It may be easy but it’s the hardest easy money you’ll ever make.
Getting yo shit together requires a deep level of honesty with yourself, you gotta be able to look at yourself in the mirror & be willing to accept flaws & behavior that's not allowing you to grow , self evaluation is difficult but it's extremely necessary.
