Self Control

The man who masters himself is delivered from the force that binds all creatures
-Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Without self control, enthusiasm resembles the unharnessed lightning of an electrical storm It may strike anywhere; It may destroy life and poverty.

Enthusiasm is the vital quality that arouses you to action, while self control is the balance wheel that directs your action so that it will build up not tear down.

Self control is the ability to direct your thoughts, and this your actions, in the pursuit of your definite chief aim.

To be a person who is "well balance," you must be a person in whom Enthusiasm and self control are equalized.

It is a fact that the majority of our personal grief comes about through lack of self-control.
The holy scriptures are full of admonition in support of self control. They even urge us to love our enemies and to forgive those who injure us.

If you neglect to exercise. Self control, you are not only likely to injure others but you are sure to injure yourself!

The growth of wisdom may be gauged accurately by the decline of ill-temper.
-Friedrich Nietzsche

Luck is not chance it's foil - fortune's expensive smile is earned
-Emily Dickinson

No one can control others unless they first control them self.

Lack of self control is the average salespersons most damaging weakness.

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...
 Loss is painful, guilt can be devastating. Worse than losing one's dream is the knowledge that the loss was self-inflicted. Problems are solutions that have outlived their usefulness. Problems are pattern that were learned in emotional circumstances during one period of life and that now have taken an existence of their own. Many times, outdated solutions replay themselves in a variety of life situations, leaving people mindlessly repeating their mistakes in work, love, and trading. There can be no free will for people who are locked into patterns developed for past challenges. Successful traders are therapists both learn to do what comes unnaturally. The resolution to problems can be found in what people are doing when those problems are not occurring. The problem with many traders is not that they have problems, but that they are focused on their problems. It is this problem focus that prevents them from appreciating what they are doing right, that blinds them to solutions alrea...

So what is your money blueprint set for?

Are you programmed for managing your money well or mismanaging it? Are you a spender or a saver ? Wealth principle: The only way to permanently change the temperature in the room is to reset the thermostat. In the same way, the only way to change your level of financial success "permanently" is to reset your financial thermostat. You can become an expert in real estate or the stock market. All of these are tremendous "tools." But in the end, without an inner "tool-box" that is big enough and strong enough for you to create and hold on to large amounts of money, all the tools in the world will be useless to you. Your income can grow only to the extent that you do. Remember that the first element of all change is awareness.Watch yourself, become conscious, observe your thoughts, your fears, your beliefs, your habits, your actions, and even your inactions. Put yourself under a microscope. Study yourself. Wealth principle: Consciousness is observin...
