Master the fear of poverty

To whip fear of poverty one must take two definite steps if one is in debt. First , quit the habit of buying on credit, being free from the worry of indebtedness, you are ready to revamp the habits of your mind and redirect your course toward prosperity.

The habit of saving a portion of your income. Very soon this habit will begin to take hold of your mind and you will actually get joy out of saving.

The spending habit must be replaced by the saving habit by all who wish to attain financial independence.

Merely to discontinue an undesirable habit is not enough, as such habits have a tendency to reappear unless the place they had occupied in the mind is filled by some other habit of a different nature.

The discontinuance of a habit leaves a hole in the mind, and this hole must be filled with some other form of habit or the old one will return and claim its place.

The person without money is at mercy of the person who has it regardless of the amount of ability one may possess, the training they have had, or their native genius or natural gifts.

Without a savings fund the individual suffers in two ways: first, by their inability to seize opportunities that come only to the person with some ready cash. Second, by embarrassment due to some unexpected emergency calling for cash.

Every failure, every adversity, every heartache may be a blessing in disguise providing it softens the animal portion of our nature.

The idea of saving, and the self control and self sacrifice that would be needed to do so, is always accompanied by thoughts of an unpleasant nature.

Maximizing Your Profits with Scoring

SETTING YOUR MAXIMUM INTRADAY TRADING LOSS First things first: set a max intraday trading loss. There will be days when you just do not have it. Why do you think coaches pull their players when they are not playing well? They are more harmful on the field than off. When you are underperforming, you are hurting your team and your trading business. You need a system to yank yourself over to the bench. A stop loss is your answer. TRADING BASED UPON THE TIME OF DAY A good trader makes note of what time of day it is, when he trades most profitably, and adjusts his trading to fit such times. Your numbers at the end of the month will not reflect your true trading potential. Make the most trades with the most size during the trading periods that statistically are most profitable for you. Money saved during your weaker trading periods is money earned. Consistency The fact is that most trades you make will start working for you right away. But the new traders also hold stocks that are trading ag...

INSPIRE COOPERATIVE AND PERSONAL ACTION

There are essentially two kinds of people of action. One might be called the caretaker type and the other the promoter or salesperson type. Both types are essential in business, industry, and finance. One of them is known as a dynamo while the other is often referred to as a balance wheel. Once in a great while you find someone who is both a dynamo and a balance wheel, but such a personality combination is rare. Most successful business organizations are made up of both types. The balance-wheel type who does nothing but compile facts and figures and statistics is just as much a person of action as the one who gets on a stage and sells an idea to a thousand people by the sheer power of their active personality. To determine whether or not someone is a person of action, it is necessary to analyze both their mental and their physical habits. The world pays you for what you do and not for what you know. That statement might easily be misconstrued. What the world really pays you for ...

TIME

Time is the law of hypnotic  rhythm. The lapse of time required to give permanency to thought habits depends upon the object and the nature of thoughts. Time divides all thought habits into two classes, negative thoughts and positive thoughts. One's individual thoughts are of course constantly changing and being recombined to suit the individual's desires, but thoughts do not change from negative to positive or vice versa except throught voluntary effort on the part of the individual. Time penalizes the individual for all negative thoughts and rewards him for all positive thoughts, according to the nature and purpose of the thoughts. If one's dominating thoughts are negative, time penalizes the individual by building in his mind the habit of negative thinking and then proceeds to solidify this habit into "permanency," of course, refers to the natural life of the individual. In the strict sense of the term, nothing is permanent. Time converts thought habits into wh...
