My 68-year-old client said something that stopped me cold:
"The last 20 years felt like 5. I can't remember most of it."
Here's what neuroscience says about why time accelerates as we age—and the one thing that slows it down:
At 10 years old, one year = 10% of your life. Everything is new.
At 68, one year = 1.5% of your life. Same routine for 40 years.
When everything is routine, time blurs. Your brain doesn't encode memories.
But new experiences? They stretch time. Make it feel rich again.
He started taking painting classes. Learning Italian. Volunteering at a food bank.
"I feel like I'm living again. The weeks actually feel long now."
One new experience per month can literally change how you experience time.
The application: Stop watching the same shows. Take a cooking class. Visit that museum you've driven past for 10 years.
Routine steals your years. Novelty gives them back.
@MarketMovesMatt I understand the process, but dont say, "it always comes back" and that price can be so far below your put to price that the covered call option is about worthless to put on for pennies. if way to far below.... JUST SAYING.... i WOULD rather roll out and back down in strike
Everybody asks me what changed
between my losing years and my winning ones.
Here is the complete list:
• Stopped buying options. Started selling them.
• Stopped trading daily. Started trading weekly.
• Stopped using 14 indicators. Kept 2.
• Stopped chasing momentum. Started waiting for red days.
• Stopped sizing at 1%. Started sizing at 25%.
• Stopped measuring wins by excitement. Started measuring by consistency.
• Stopped watching CNBC. Started watching RSI.
• Stopped having 30 tickers. Kept 3.
• Stopped trying to be right. Started trying to be consistent.
Same market. Same person.
Nine changes. Everything different.
The strategy was never the problem.
The habits around it were.
Most men don’t want injections. They want their body to work again. No complicated process. No hidden fees. No long onboarding. You start. Doctor reviews. If approved, it ships. That’s it. Price stays the same on renewal. No increases.
