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.
Three traits of every successful trader I know:
They're bored.
They're patient.
They're brutally honest with themselves.
If that doesn't sound like you, start there.
Buy something you don't own at all low price and sell it to another for more than you paid.
Sell something you can borrow at a high price and buy it cheaper from another and give it to the one you borrowed from.
Don't expose yourself to more than 1% personal risk or seek to do more deals than your comfort permits.
Wash, Rinse, Repeat.
