Arnold's Secret

Read an interview with bodybuilder Tom Platz and one moment
really wanted to publish in my LJ.

Think, it will be interesting to you too.

Tom was asked a question about, what does he think of Arnold Schwarzenegger.
His answer was as follows:

“Arnold's secret is, that he never played roulette with himself: попробую, maybe it will work out. Any business he planned, as a commander the battle. First – it is correct to assess the enemy. Second – place your forces correctly. Well, then it remains to mobilize the will and attack. The outcome of the battle will depend only on your fortitude, and this is the main prerequisite for victory. By the way, I've never seen, for Arnold to gamble. He did not like to depend on blind circumstances for anything.”

Banzai!

Parable

A couple of days ago, a trader told me a Buddhist parable.

“A young man comes to an elder and asks to teach him how to meditate. He answers him, that first you need to learn to see the world like this, какой он есть. The young man agrees and the elder brings him to the pond and asks him to say, what does he see there. At first he saw only a small fish there. The elder instructed him to sit and look further.. Every day the young man began to see more and more…”

There is a great parallel with trading..

Until a person learns to see the overall picture of the market and understand it –
it will be very difficult for him to achieve real success.

The path to success is very similar to this parable..

At first we see just graphs, then levels,
then the actions of large market participants and so on.

Someone won't have the patience for this.
So this is not for you.
It's OK – there is still a sea of ​​things, which you can do besides trading.

Correct thinking

In trading, the right mindset is more important than anywhere else..

You come to work, which can take up to several years to learn.

Everyday stress.

To survive, you have to think right.

Keep repeating to yourself `` Tomorrow is a new day '', & quot; new market & quot;.
Helps a lot.

Otherwise you will turn sour. Or completely idiotic thoughts will appear like `` this is because of the puppeteers I lost money '', or `` this is all the market is to blame ''.
This is absolutely wrong. Therein, what you haven't earned, only you are to blame.

One guy has been trying to prove to me for a long time, what day trading did brokers come up with, to earn commission.
Man doesn't follow the rules. Experienced people try to help him, and he repeats the same thing. Therefore, it sits deep in…

Give all your best on 200% every working day is very hard.
Have a good rest. Have fun. Do not under any circumstances deprive yourself of rest..
Otherwise you won't last long. I say exactly.

If you work in a good mood – you will definitely survive and reach the goal.
