Wisdom For Today

Every answer to every problem you have ever faced is in print (books).
All the mistakes you will ever make in your life have already been made by those that have walked before you. Do you really think that the challenges you are facing are unique to you?
All the problems anyone has ever, and will ever face over the course of their lifetime have already been made.

More importantly, the answers and solutions are all recorded on the pages of books. Read the right books. Learn how those who have preceded you have handled the challenges you are currently facing. Apply their strategies for success and you will be astonished by the improvements you will note in your life.

It's not what you will get out of the books that is so enriching  it is what the books will get out of you that will ultimately change your life. Books do not actually teach you anything new.

Books simply help you to see what is already within your self. That's what enlightenment is all about.

Personal Reflection
The power of inner contemplation. By taking the time to get to know yourself, you will connect to a dimension of your being that you never knew you had.

 Personal reflection is nothing more than the habit of thinking.
Most of us do think. The problem is that most people think just enough to survive. What I am speaking about with this ritual is thinking enough to thrive.

Stop making excuses and just do it! Take the time to think. Get into the regular habit of personal introspection.

You do have the power to control your day. You do have the power to think good thoughts. You do have the power to live your dreams!

The power of Personal Reflection
By looking at what you are doing, how you are spending your day and the thoughts you are thinking, you give yourself a benchmark for measuring improvement. The only way to improve tomorrow is to know what you did wrong today.And come up with a clear plan so that it doesn't happen again.

There is nothing wrong with making mistakes. Mistakes are part of life and essential for growth. It's like that saying, 'Happiness comes through good judgment, good judgment comes through experience, and experience comes through bad judgment.' But there is something very wrong with making the same mistakes over and over again, day in and day out. This shows a complete lack of self-awareness, the very quality that separates humans from animals.

Only a human being can step out of himself and analyze what he is doing right and what he is doing wrong. A dog cannot do this. A bird cannot do this. Even a monkey cannot do it. But you can.
Figure out what is right and what is wrong in your days and in your life. Then set about making immediate improvements.

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...

The law of social heredity

It is hardly sufficient to say that social heredity is the method through which humans gather all knowledge that reaches us through the five senses. It is more to the point to say how social heredity works, in as many different applications as will give you a comprehensive understanding of that law. you are fortunate if you have learned the difference between temporary defeat and failure, more fortunate still, if  you have learned the truth that the very seed of success is dormant in every defeat that you experience. It is well known fact that a fox will prey upon all manner of fowl and small animals, with the exception of skunk. No reason need to be stated as to why Mr. Skunk enjoys immunity. A fox may tackle a skunk once, but never twice! for this reason a skunk hide, when nailed to a chicken roost, will keep all but the very young and inexperienced foxes at a safe distance. The odor of a skunk, once experienced, is never to be forgotten. No other smell even remotely resem...
