Pray very very hard about your situation
Whether Great or Small
But make sure you Work harder
Grace can take you places but preparation is More important
It took me a full year before I could even get my first payout from a prop account.‼️
One of the hardest stages of any journey is when your growth is obvious to you, but completely invisible in your results.
You’re putting in more work than ever.
You’re learning everyday.
Making fewer mistakes.
Understanding things today that used to confuse you completely.
But somehow, your life still looks almost the same.
No major breakthrough.
No big result.
Nothing impressive enough to point at and say, “This is what all the work produced.”
That stage can really mess with your head.
Because after a while, you start asking yourself if all this effort is actually taking you anywhere.
Then one day, something finally clicks.
And people think you suddenly became good.
But you know the truth?
It wasn’t that day that made you good.
It was all those months and years when nobody could see the progress.
The mistakes you stopped making.
The things you finally understood.
The discipline you slowly built.
The times you kept going without anything to show for it.
I’ve learnt that progress can remain quiet for a very long time.
Then suddenly, the results become very loud.
So if you’ve been trying for what feels like forever, but you can genuinely say you’re better than the person who started, don’t disrespect that progress simply because the reward hasn’t caught up yet.
Sometimes, the result is just late to the work.
Keep going.
And if you’re currently in this stage where you know you’ve improved but the results still haven’t shown up yet, this is your reminder not to stop now.
Rooting for you💜
The moment you realize your lack of discipline is costing you more than the market ever could, you stop blaming the charts and start fixing yourself.
Fix your trading.
I’m not saying this because I’m better than you.
I’m saying it from experience.
I’ve lived through it.
I’ve taken multiple trades trying to reach a specific goal. I’ve funded my account repeatedly after losing trades. I’ve taken money I made outside trading and put it back into the market because I was trying to scale my capital faster.
And I can tell you firsthand: without structure, this becomes extremely detrimental.
Trading is a business. Treat it like one.
• Max 1 trade per day.
• Max 3 trades per week.
• No setup = no trade.
• Reduce the pairs you trade.
• Win or lose, once you take your trade, you’re done for the day.
• Withdraw/pay yourself once a month.
You don’t need to trade every day to make money.
You can take zero trades all week if nothing meets your criteria.
And stop the cycle:
Fund → lose → fund again → lose again.
Set a fixed percentage of the money you earn outside trading that you’re willing to allocate to your trading account. Once that allocation is gone, you’re done.
Your trading losses should never be allowed to affect your lifestyle or financial stability.
You don’t need to rush.
You need to stay in the game.
Imagine reaching the end of the month having taken only 7 trades—and making more than you did when you were taking 30.
That’s the difference structure can make.
Trade less. Think more. Protect your capital.
Trading is a business, and you can only give yourself a real chance of succeeding when you start treating it like one.
