If you can’t understand how insane this is just from a point of view of the physics just know that our lives are forever changed again.. Also for a sense of scale, that booster is the height of a 15 storey building at 71 meters or 233 feet.. just think about that.
Beloved, be present in the now, and love your loved ones in the now. Don't worry about the future, but instead savor the present and enjoy what the Lord has blessed you with now!
True success is about the journey that we take, not just the destination. The Lord wants to prosper you during your journey—learn to enjoy where you are, not just when you’ve reached your goal!
The Lord understands every temptation and every trial that you are going through. He is not disappointed with you, and He is not waiting for you to live up to a set of dos and don’ts before He forgives and loves you.
Interesting quote from Napoleon...
"Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne, and I myself have founded great empires; but upon what did these creations of our genius depend? Upon force. Jesus alone founded His empire upon love, and to this very day millions will die for Him."
| Napoleon Bonaparte
Full quote:
"Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne and I myself have founded great empires; but upon what did these creations of our genius depend? Upon force. Jesus alone founded His empire upon love, and to this very day millions will die for Him. I think I understand something of human nature; and I tell you, all these were men, and I am a man: none else is like Him; Jesus Christ was more than a man. I have inspired multitudes with such an enthusiastic devotion that they would have died for me but to do this it was necessary that I should be visibly present with the electric influence of my looks, my words, of my voice. When I saw men and spoke to them, I lighted up the flame of self-devotion in their hearts. Christ alone has succeeded in so raising the mind of man toward the unseen, that it becomes insensible to the barriers of time and space. Across a chasm of eighteen hundred years, Jesus Christ makes a demand which is beyond all others difficult to satisfy; He asks for that which a philosopher may often seek in vain at the hands of his friends, or a father of his children, or a bride of her spouse, or a man of his brother. He asks for the human heart; He will have it entirely to Himself. He demands it unconditionally; and forthwith His demand is granted. Wonderful! In defiance of time and space, the soul of man, with all its powers and faculties, becomes an annexation to the empire of Christ. All who sincerely believe in Him, experience that remarkable, supernatural love toward Him. This phenomenon is unaccountable; it is altogether beyond the scope of man's creative powers. Time, the great destroyer, is powerless to extinguish this sacred flame; time can neither exhaust its strength nor put a limit to its range. This is it, which strikes me most; I have often thought of it. This it is which proves to me quite convincingly the Divinity of Jesus Christ."
This quote is attributed to Napoleon toward the end of his life when he was in reflection mode on the island of St. Helena.

Short-term results are mostly unpredictable and chaotic.
That's why it's important to have a structure you trust and abide by. (your trading rules)
This is what allows order and consistency to arise.
Winning traders and losing traders both share something in common: losing trades are hard to stomach.
But winning traders don't hold on to losing positions hoping and wishing for a recovery.
When the market tells them "No" they say" Ok... Next!"
What if I told you that you don't need long-winded analyzes?
What if I told you that you just need to go with the dominant trend, and simply lose small when you lose and win big when you win?
