Others will believe in you only when you believe in yourself

They will tune on your thought and feel toward you just as you feel toward yourself. You are continuously broadcasting what you think of yourself and if you have no faith in yourself, others will pick up the vibrations of your thoughts and mistake them for their own. Once you understand the law of mental telepathy, you will now why self-confidence is the third of the seventeen laws of success.

You should be cautioned, however, to learn the difference between self-confidence which is based on sound knowledge of what you know and what you can do, and egotism, which is based only on what you wish you knew or could do. Learn the difference between these two terms or you will make yourself boring, ridiculous, and annoying to people of culture and understanding.

Self Confidence is something that should never be proclaimed or announced except through intelligent performance of constructive deeds.

If you have self confidence, those around you will discover this fact. Let them make the discovery. They will feel proud of their alertness in having made the discovery, and you will be free from the suspicion of egotism. Opportunity never stalks the person with a highly developed state of egotism, but brickbats and ugly remarks do. Opportunity forms affinities much more easily and quickly with self-confidence than it does with egotism. Self praise is never a proper measure of self reliance.

Self confidence is the product of knowledge. Know yourself, know how much you know(and how little), why you know it, and how you are going to use it. Four flusher come to grief, therefore, do not pretend to know more than you actually do now. There's no use of pretense, because any educated person will measure you quite accurately after hearing you speak for 3 minutes. What you really are will speak so loudly that what you claim you are will not be heard.

Believe in yourself but do not tell the world what you can do. Show it!

Discontentment
The supreme mystery of the universe is life! We came here without our consent, from whence we know not we go away without our consent, whither we know not.

We are eternally trying to solve this great riddle of life, and for what purpose and to what end? That we are placed on this earth for a definite reason there can be no doubt by any thinker. May it not be possible that the power which placed us here will know what to do with us when we pass on beyon the great divide?

From birth to until death, the mind is always reaching out for what it does not possess.

The little child, playing with its toys on the floor, sees another child with a different toy and immediately tries to lay hands on that toy.

Adults continue to pursue what they perceive as bigger, better, and more toys; the more the better.

A monument to the vanity of man, with but little else to justify its existence.

The grass is always sweeter on the other side of the fence says the jackass, as he stretches his neck in the attempt to get to it.

Let a crowd of boys into an apply orchard and they will pass by the nice mellow apples on the ground. The red, juicy ones hanging dangerously high at the top of the tree look much more tempting, and up the tree they will go.

The married man takes a sheepish glance at the ladies on the street and thinks how fortunate he would be if his wife were as pretty as they perhaps she is much prettier, but he misses that beauty because - well, because "The grass is always sweeter on the other side of the fence."

Happiness is always just around the bend, always in sight but just out of reach. Life is never complete, no matter what we have or how much of it we possess. One thing calls for something else to go with it.

The more we get the more we wanted, and the rule applies to the millionaires as much as it does to someone with only a few thousand dollars.

At every crossroads of life the imps of discontentment stand in the shadows of the background, with a grin of mockery on their faces, crying, "Take the road of your own choice! We will get you in the end!"

Many become disillusioned and begin to learn that happiness and contentment are not in this world.

In the midst of sectarian claims and counter claims, we become undecided Not knowing whether to turn this way or that, we wonder which brand of religion offers the safest passage way, until hope vanishes.

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...

CAN A FIRM ALWAYS SPOT THE NEXT GREAT TRADER?

 No. But a prop firm can tell who has a poor chance to become a CPT. To be good at anything will take everything you have. Not having developed the skills to work hard is a turn-off. Trading is a skill learned by doing, not just by reading a lot, theorizing, or the faux art of “paper trading.” THE PROS AND CONS OF RECRUITING EXPERIENCED TRADERS Loyalty is a good thing to a point, but it cannot trump logistics and reality. losing money should really bother you. If I am negative three days in a row, I spend a long evening on my couch with a bottle of red wine and comfort food. As traders, we can all recite the memorable line from Wall Street: “A man looks in the abyss, there is nothing staring back at him. At that moment he discovers his character. That keeps the man out of the abyss.”  Traders don’t talk about how they want to trade, what they want to read about trading, or how they wish they could talk about trading. Traders trade, read about trading, and talk about trading.

Disciplined Trader Chapter 2

The following typical trading errors have a specific cause rooted in a thinking methodology that can be changed. 1. Refusing to define a loss. 2. Not liquidating a losing trade, even after you have acknowledged the trade's potential is greatly diminished. 3. Getting locked into a specific opinion or belief about market direction. From a psychological perspective this is equivalent to trying to control the market with your expectation of what it will do: "I'm right, the market is wrong." 4. Focusing on price and the monetary value of a trade, instead of the potential for the market to move based on its behavior and structure. 5. Revenge-trading as if you were trying get back at the market for what it took away from you. 6. Not reversing your position even when you clearly sense a change in market direction. 7. Not following the rules of the trading system. 8. Planning for a move or feeling one building, but then finding yourself immobilized to hit the bid or of...
