KICKING THAT MOTHER FUCKER MARKET’S ASS. Not sound trading. Nothing but being the heroic caveman and chucking that fucking spear until my arm fell off. Without acknowledging my emotions — good and bad — I lose their information and thus the opportunity to shift perspectives. Here in the lesson Brett examples a trader who is EXACTLY like me.

To help create these positive mirrors, by encouraging yourself to reflect on your successes, for motivation and confidence, and on your losses, but to frame them, as above, as opportunities to learn, rather than failures. By structuring your off days as lessons, and setting positive goals for yourself in internalizing those lessons, you create the positive relationship you need to have both with your trading coach and with yourself.

Because it not just about making money, it’s about creating experiences that will sustain my sense of competence and confidence.
