Overcoming Obstacles


The primary difference between a rich person and a poor person is how they manage fear.

Five main reasons why financial literate people may still not develop abundant asset columns
that could produce a large cash flow.
1.Fear
2.Cynicism
3.Laziness
4.Bad Habits
5.Arrogance

Overcoming Fear
"If you hate risk and worry, start early."

The greatest reason for lack of financial success was because most people played it too safe. "People are
so afraid of losing that they lose."

"Winning means being unafraid to lose."
For most people, the reason they don't win financially is because the pain of losing money is far greater than the joy
of being rich.

Failures inspire winnes. Failure defeats losers.

Overcoming Cynicism.

School has conditiond us to avoid mistakes and punishes students for making them. In the real world, I've learned that mistakes if acknowledged and evaluated and used
as a tool to make better decisions in the future are invaluable. A little fear can be a healthy thing, but we shouldn't live in fear of making mistakes. Mistakes are good things,
if we find the lesson in every failure.

Noise is created inside our heads or comes from outside, often from friends, family, co-workers, and the media.

Doubts and cynicism that keep most people poor and playing it safe. The real world is simply waiting for you to get rich.
Only a person's doubts keep them poor.

Cynics never win unchecked doubt and fear creates a cynic. Cynics criticize, and winners analyze.
Criticism blinded while analysis opened eyes. And finding what people miss is key to any success.

Overcoming Laziness
The most common form of laziness: Laziness by staying busy. So what is the cure for laziness? The answer is a little greed.

The words "I can't afford it shuts down your brain." "How can I afford it?" opens up possibilities, excitement, and dreams.

"I cant' afford it" also causes sadness, a helplessness that leads to despondency and often depression. "How can I afford it?"
creates a stronger mind and a dynamic spirit.

Without that little greed, the desire to have something better, progress is not made. Our world progresses because we all desire a better life.
New inventions are made because we desire something better. So whenever you find yourself avoiding something you know you should be doing. Then the only thing you
ask yourself is, "What's in it for me?" Be a little greedy. It's the best cure for laziness.

Do what you feel in your heart to be right for you'll be criticized anyway.
You'll be damned if you do it and if you don't -Eleanor Roosevelt

Overcoming Bad Habits

Our lives are reflection of our habits more than our education

If I pay myself first, I get financially stronger, mentally and fiscally.
Why? because if i don't have something to give them i will find ways to provide. I will find ways for my pay not get deducted
And if I pay myself last, or not at all, I get weaker. So people like bosses, managers, tax collectors, and landlords push me around all my life just because I
don't have good money habits.

Overcoming Arrogance
"What I know makes me money. What I don't know loses me money. Everytime I have been arrogant, I have lost money. Because when I'm arrogant, I trully believe that what I don't know is not important."

When you know you are ignorant in a subject, start educating yourself by finding an expert in the field or a book on the subject.
Ignorance isn't a bad thing, if you react to your own ignorance by educating yourself by finding an expert in field

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.

How to Make Good Habits Inevitable and Bad Habits Impossible

Sometimes success is less about making good habits easy and more about making bad habits hard. This is an inversion of the 3rd Law of Behavior Change: make it dif icult. If you find yourself continually struggling to follow through on your plans, then you can take a page from Victor Hugo and make your bad habits more difficult by creating what psychologists call a commitment device. A commitment device is a choice you make in the present that controls your actions in the future. It is a way to lock in future behavior, bind you to good habits, and restrict you from bad ones. When Victor Hugo shut his clothes away so he could focus on writing, he was creating a commitment device. There are many ways to create a commitment device. You can reduce overeating by purchasing food in individual packages rather than in bulk size. You can voluntarily ask to be added to the banned list at casinos and online poker sites to prevent future gambling sprees. I’ve even heard of athletes who have to “mak...
