Enthusiasm part 3

Science has established the fact that through the negative use of suggestion, life may be extinguished.

Half the wreck that strew life's ocean, if some star had been their guide, night in safety now be riding, but they drifted with the tide.

Any person who would answer the question in the negative would convict them self on the change of selfishness, and no one wants to live with a guilty conscience on such a charge.

Conceit is a fog that envelops a man's real character beyond his own recognition. It weakens his native ability and strengthens all his inconsistencies.

The  human mind is a marvelous piece of machinery! one of its outstanding characteristics is that  all impressions which reach it, either through outside suggestion or autosuggestion, are recorded together in groups which harmonize in nature.

The negative impressions are all stored away in one portion of the brain, while the positive impressions are stored in another portion. 

When one of theses impressions is called into the conscious mind through the principle of memory there is a tendency to recall with it all other of a similar nature, just as the raising of one link of a chain brings up other links with it.

anything that causes a feeling of doubt to arise in a person's mind is sufficient to call forth all of their experiences that caused them to become doubtful.


Through the law of association, all similar emotions, experiences, and sense impressions that reach the mind are filed away together, so that the recalling of one tends to bring back to memory all the others.

To arouse a feeling of distrust in a person's mind has a tendency to bring back every doubt building experience that person ever had.

Successful salespeople endeavor to keep away from the discussion of subjects that may arouses the buyers "chain of doubt impressions" from the previous experiences.

The successful salesperson quickly learns that "knocking" a competitor may result in bringing to the buyer's mind certain negative emotions that might make it impossible for the salesperson to "neutralize" the buyers mind.

A feeling of courage cannot claim the attention of the conscious mind while a feeling of fear is there. One or the other must dominate. They make poor roommates because they do not harmonize in nature. Like attracts Like.

Every thought held in conscious mind has a tendency to draw to it other thoughts of a similar nature. These feelings, thoughts, and emotions growing out of past experiences, which claim the attention of the conscious mind, are backed by a regular army of supporting soldiers of a similar nature that stand ready to aid them in their work.

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.

Reading the Tape

 Dr. Steenbarger, aka the godfather of modern trading psychology, wrote: “My experience is that an understanding of (and ability to read) order flow is one important factor that separates the older, successful generation of day traders from the newbies who only know simple chart patterns and indicator readings.” continue working on the skill of reading the tape and to sell the stock on the offer when the tape showed weakness. “Reading the tape must be learned through personal experience and long observation.” keep in mind that nothing can top experience. Don’t give up. It is not always this easy to Read the Tape. But there are plays where it really is simple. And reading the tape will offer pattern recognition plays that you can exploit. Overcoming a Confirmation Bias We all fight confirmation bias. But it will harm our performance if we do not overcome it. Let the tape talk to you. And use online vehicles like StockTwits and your peers sitting next to you to gain second ...

 All great leaders in every walk of life are highly sexed, but they follow the habit of controlling their sex desires, switching them into a driving force behind their occupation. The person who has self discipline understands the emotion of sex, respects it, and learns to control and transmute it into contructive activities. Q: Just what damage is there in over-indulgence of sex? A: The greatest damage is that it depletes the source of man's greatest driving force, and wastes, without adequate compensation, man's creative energy. Controlled sex supplies the magnetic force that attracts people to one another. It is the most important factor of a pleasing personality. It gives quality to the tone of voice and enables one to convey through the voice any feeling desired. It serves, as nothing else can serve, to give motive power to one's desires. It keeps the nervous system changed with the energy needed to carry on the work of maintaining the body. It sharpens the imagination...
