Mastering Your Emotions
Six Steps to Mastering Your Emotions 

How do most people handle their emotions? They avoid them endure them or use them to compete with other people. There’s a fourth way, a better way, and you can do it in six simple steps —learn from your emotions and utilize them

1. Identify the emotion and appreciate the message:
• It’s saying you have to change something.
2. Clarify:
• What is this emotion trying to tell me? What message is it offering? 
• Do I need to change my perception (the meaning) or my procedures (my communication or my behavior)?
3. Get curious and ask questions:
• How do I really want to feel? As soon as you identify what you want to feel, you’re moving in the direction you want to go. 
• What would I have to believe in order to feel that way now? 
• What am I willing to do to make it the way I want it? 
• What’s great about this, or what can I learn from this?
4. Get confident:
• Recall a specific time when you felt this emotion before and somehow got over it. 
• Remembering a time when you were able to deal with the emotion will reassure you that you can deal with it now. 
5. Get certain:
Imagine coming up with different ways of handling this emotion. If one doesn’t work, try another. Rehearse until you feel confident.
6. Get excited and take action!  
Do something right away that shows you can handle this emotion. Express your emotion in a way that reinforces what you’ve rehearsed in your mind and changes the way you feel.

We must cultivate our garden.  —Voltaire

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...

Profiting By Failure

DEFEAT, LIKE A HEADACHE, WARNS US THAT SOMETHING HAS GONE WRONG. IF WE ARE INTELLIGENT WE LOOK FOR THE CAUSE AND PROFIT BY THE EXPERIENCE.  -Napoleon Hill  Defeat often talks to us in a language that we do not understand. If this were not true, we would not make the same mistakes over and over again without profiting by the lessons that they might teach us. If it were not true, we would observe more closely the mistakes that other people make and we would profit by them also. DO NOT LOOK WHERE YOU FELL, BUT WHERE YOU SLIPPED.  -African proverb  Every defeat teaches a needed lesson to those who are ready and willing to be taught.  AN OPTIMIST SEES AN OPPORTUNITY IN EVERY CALAMITY; A PESSIMIST SEES A CALAMITY IN EVERY OPPORTUNITY.  -Winston Churchill We human beings often give ourselves credit to which we are not entitled. I fear we too often assume credit for wisdom and for results that accrue from causes over which we have absolut...
