In life you have two choices. You can do things the easy way or the hard way.
So many people choose the hard way when they don't have to. Instead of growing quickly, overcoming their obstacles, and hitting their trading goals they spend YEARS repeating the same mistakes only to get frustrated.
If you want to hit your trading goals faster there are 3 non-negotiables.
- You need intense focus.
If you want to succeed, get yourself out of the way and keep a tunnel vision on your trading.
2. You need to not take your losses too seriously.
What I don't mean is that you shouldn't care about losses. First, that's impossible. Second, you'll just keep making the same mistakes if you truly don't care.
What I do mean is that you need to learn to take your losses gracefully by smiling and moving on. Hanging on to what could have been will keep you in the past and you won't be able to move into what you could be. This is why emotional control is key. 3. You need community.
If your goal as a trader is to learn in solitude, to consume content, to learn some setups and to move on, then you will struggle for years.
It's been proven that people grow faster AND with more actual change when they learn together.
This is why I created a community around a course instead of just dropping a course for people.
Don't take my word for it, I dare you to start sharing your takeaways regularly, to read other people's takeaways, to share your ups and downs and everything in between in this group and see if it doesn't make you a better trader.
What about you? Comment below which of these non-negotiable you need to solidify if you want to keep growing and what you plan to do about it!
