What Are You Thinking About - Most Of The Time?

2010-08-25T00:08:00.185+01:00

'Remember,
You Only Have To Succeed The Last Time.'

~Brian Tracy
Author, Speaker, and Consultant

We all have our issues, don't we?

And if we said we didn't – we'd either be lying to somebody else, or worse still to ourselves.

Sometimes we have to Stop and Start again and sometimes that may appear to feel like failure but it's as Brian Tracy said above:

'Remember, You Only Have To Succeed The Last Time.'

So, how many times do you have to keep on trying and doing?

And how long do you have to wait before you give up?

You do realise, when I write, I'm first and foremost writing to myself because since I go through what you go through, I'm therefore writing to you too.

It's good to share, isn't it?

So let me tell you this...

...to not 'Think' of the things you don't want is not easy... as it feels so much easier to just give in and let your thoughts negatively, run away with itself.

When you're feeling good because all around you is going well, it's easy to feel good about it and have happy thoughts...

...but what about when things are not going according to plan? Your plan?

Can you still 'Think' good and positive thoughts?

I know... I know, it's not easy, as I'll tell you now, I feel like I am the one who struggles with my thoughts the most because I always want to succeed in all I do too – but so as long as you have something to do – something to stretch towards, something to look forward to...

...what you 'Think' about will be easier to deal with because you'll have a purpose.

So, what is your purpose?

You know what?

It's okay if you don't know what your purpose is yet, as when I was faced with that question, I went cold all over and I felt I would never find it.

Y'see, even though I was fully involved in getting things done at the time, hearing that question as to what my true purpose was made me stop and wonder as to whether what I was doing was the right thing.

Was what I was doing my true purpose?

Now when I look back at what I was doing, it definitely wasn't. I had to make changes, BIG changes and I'm still making changes all of the time, far more rapidly than I ever had done before.

So with what you're doing now, is it your true purpose?

Spend more time thinking about what it is you want to do, or even what it is you don't want to do and from there you'll be able to decipher what it is you do want to do as you'll end up eliminating what it is you don't want to do.

And with what you've got left, take the 'Super-Trader Traits!' and utilise them to the positive, to what fits in with your wants and needs and 'Think' about the good stuff most of the time, even when you really don't feel like it, as that is the trait of a true 'Super-Trader'.

So keep on 'Thinking' of what it it you really want and next, go to action to achieve it, until you do, as once you do succeed, the last time could actually be the first time and that's all you need to work on.

You 'Super-Trader' you!

P.S. By the way... this is totally unrelated in a related sort of way but come Friday the 27th of August 2010, I'm releasing a... or my Roulette System.

If you haven't heard anything about it yet, check out the facts or my story over here. Don't forget to look at the About page too as that'll give you a greater insight as to how it all came about but don't expect a lot, as there really wasn't much to say, not like I do over here.

So what do I 'Think' about most of the time?

I 'Think' about fixing, correcting and improving things most of the time as with the Roulette System, my trading system but more importantly, I 'Think' about correcting myself in mind, body and spirit.

Here's to more thoughts and more future actions:

As mentioned, I'll be moving away from this Blog setup and moving over to another medium where I'll be looking to experiment with brand new ideas...

...yes, you'll soon see!

I Can Hear Music... In You!!!

'Thousands Of Geniuses Live And Die Undiscovered

- Either By Themselves Or By Others.'

~Mark Twain

Yes, I've previously made mention of the title – and on the subject of being a Genius, I wrote about you being a Genius at something and maybe just one thing – and it's up to you to find it.

You know what?

I'm still looking for my Genius within me.

People may tell you you're good a something specific but maybe, just maybe it comes down to what you feel you're good at and what you really enjoy.

What do you 'Think'?

There are so many things for you to do out there, yes, trading is one of them but as I've so often said, what if trading the financial markets is not your gig, then what?

I'd say, do what you 'Feel' like doing and do it the way you want to do it, so as long as it doesn't violate the world around you. Keep up with that thing you 'Feel' like doing for at least 21Days to see what results you get from it – and then see what happens.

That's how I started Blogging, now look at me!!!

My 21Days turned into 2Years!!!

Let's get back to you... you're already a Genius but if you haven't fully figured out what you're a Genius at or in, now's the time to start looking, without ceasing.

Did you know todays post comes under the trait of 'Confidence'?

So, build up your 'Confidence' to get out there, to do what you need to do and maybe, just maybe it's time to get yourself known to those people, places and things that matter to you, yes, 'Let Your Light Shine!'

You 'Super-Trader' you!

Chat Soon!

...The Buyer & Seller

P.S. And talking of letting our light shine and doing what you feel like doing, come next week, this Blog will cease but I plan to start a new one with the same name but using a different setup, yes, I plan to go into Video, so you'll be able to see me and hear me.

And you know what? I think it'll be fun, maybe it'll be like my Radio gig. I suppose I'll make a few mistakes here and there but...

Hmmm...

Yes... let's see what happens.

In the meantime, I'll see you next week Wednesday, okay?

'Priorities Lead To Prosperity.'

~Michelle Singletary:
Nationally Syndicated Columnist For The Washington Post

Here's a snippet of the good stuff I got from Nightingale-Conant:

Focus on what's important in life, and you'll ultimately succeed. But when you always focus on what's MOST important, that's when you'll shatter your original expectations. Start each day with a positive attitude, a passion for living, and a pencil and paper. And at the top of that paper, list your single most important objective for that day. Repeat every day, and you can't help but become wealthy. ~Harry S. Dent.

I know, I know... it's not always as easy as it sounds but if you were to make the things you know you must do a habit, well... it would become easier to do because it'll become a habit. And speaking of habits...

We haven't been to revisit the 'Super-Trader Traits!' for a while now, have we?

So below. you'll see them yet again. Please do remember that the 'Super-Trader Traits!' do not relate to trading alone, they relate to the whole of life... your life. All you need to do is replace the word trading for whatever you wish to do:

The Traits Of A Super-Trader Are:

1. Acceptance Of Losses & Losing

2. Confidence

3. Desire - A Driving Desire To Become Successful

4. Devotion - A Substantial Amount Of Their Waking Hours Is Given To Market Analysis & Trading Strategy

5. Discipline

6. Independence

7. Love & Passion For Trading

8. Methodology - To Which They Remained True

9. Patience

10. Resilience - In Overcoming Significant Obstacles To Reach Their Goal

11. Rigid Risk Control

And you know what else?

As for me, I like writing, so my aim is to write more.

What... more than you're writing now!?!?!? (I hear you ask)

Yes, I'd like to write more, as I'd like to get more into learning all about the Internet and since I have now partnered with a team of traders who will continue working on the trading system I developed, it will give me a greater opportunity to go nimbing through the virtual green fields of words with even greater flair and creativity.

Yes, I'll still be trading in my show and tell fashion but there are other ideas I 'need' to develop, just for you, as I have them all in my mind ready to be created.

So what is it you really, really, really want to do and are you doing it?

P.S. If you haven't already done so, go and pay my site Present Moment Solutions a visit. Over there you'll find many of the things I'm interested in and my interests are vast but more importantly... what I really wish to do is to serve you by providing you with 'Solutions' to what may be on your mind.

I wish to serve...

It's a bit like when I'm walking down the street and somebody asks me for directions... and what do I want to do? Well, if I could walk them to the place they wanted to go, I would – but the main thing is, I want to help and that is my aim for you too...

..to help in any way I can.

So whatever you're up to and whatever you're looking to do, go and have a look over here because who knows, the answer may be right there.

Oh and one more thing, there's lots of talk of folks become a bit anxious about this and that, so if you happen to be one of them, pay this link a visit, as it may solve many of those troubles (you may have) within.

How To Be Successful: TED

2010-08-04T00:08:00.213+01:00

'Don't Be Discouraged.
It's Often The Last Key In The Bunch That Opens The Lock.'

~Author Unknown

Do you know who TED is or what it's all about?

Well rather than me write a whole bunch of stuff about it in an attempt to explain what it's all about, click on this link and it'll take you to YouTube, where you can spend 3Minutes and 47Seconds finding out all about it.

What you'll see is TED is another formula for success.

You've got to be ever vigilant in looking for success and associating yourself with successful things and people because even though you may find success, it is something that can easily slip away if you don't hold onto it – and how do you hold onto success? By continually doing and getting involved in successful actions, everyday.

Here's an example for you:

I'd say setting a Goal as simple as saying you'll brush you teeth each night and following through with it is a worthy feat of success because have you ever found yourself in bed and not feeling like getting out of that warm and comfortable place to get up and do something as menial as brushing you teeth?!?!?

But you did say you would do it, didn't you?

And you know in the long run it will make your teeth and gums healthier, won't it? That's if you still have your own but even if they are false, you still have to keep them clean, don't you?

And if you do follow through with it by getting up and brushing or cleaning you teeth, even if it feels like a mammoth task to do because it will at times, that is success.

Yes, I have the very same feelings too!

Sometimes everything feels like hard work but...

...fill your days with as many successful actions as you can, okay?

So have a good old listen to TED and get back on track if you've gone astray, or just stay on track and stay successful in all you do and don't forget to do it the 'Super Trader Traits! way too.

As you may already know, or maybe you don't, I have my site over here and it's called Present Moment Solutions and what I may be doing come August the 28th 2010 is making a few changes, such as moving all I write re: the Super-Trader Traits blog over there. I'm looking to keep everything in one place but we'll see how the changes go, eh?

Oh yes and come August the 28th 2010 I will have been writing to you for 2Years!!!

I know it's not that long time in the grand scheme of things but over that time there have been many thoughts and ideas going through my mind and now I feel it's time to make some more changes, some true 'Super-Trader Traits!' style successful changes?

To change takes risk, to get out of bed each morning takes risk but I 'Believe' so as long as there is still breath within, you've got to take those risks, all for the risk of being increasingly successful.

So, keep up with your good works, as there are still many unopened doors for you to enter and yet a new key to be found to open the lock that seems it will never open.

Now... get back to work!!!

P.S. As I sit here typing, I have my CD copy of 'Think And Grow Rich' playing in the background (and it comes Highly Recommended) and you know what?

'The Inability To Forget

Is Far More Devastating

Than The Inability To Remember.'

~Mark Twain

- Search for Mark Twain at Amazon.com

...so what about you?

I know it's hard to forget certain things that have happened in your life because I've had my fair share too but why is it we tend to never forget the negatives?

And what is it that makes those thoughts we don't wish to 'Think' about linger on for so long?

In order to forget, or in order to live in the Present Moment, you've got to become aware that you're in the Present Moment and that takes some work and some doing. That's why we work on the 'Super-Trader Traits!' the way we do, to 'Get More Life Out Of Living'.

Now on the subject of 'Getting More Life Out Of Living' and on the subject of forgetting, click on this link in order to find out how you can learn to forget all you need to forget, know all you need to know and remember all you need to remember in order to move forward.

It's been said that if you 'Think' of the things you don't want, you get it, if you 'Think' of the things you do want, you get it, if you can't get your mind off the things you don't want to 'Think' about, it stays with you and if you start to 'Think' of the things you want to 'Think' about, you'll see it everywhere.

Well, well, well...

Could the above really be true?

That's a lesson of learning in and of itself, isn't it?

Well, one way and perhaps (since you're already here reading these words) the only way to find out is to put the theory to the test.

If you have the 'Desire - A Driving Desire To Become Successful' which is 'Super-Trader Trait' #3, I highly recommend you to pay this site a visit and read what Bob Proctor has to say on the subject of The 11 Forgotten Laws, which is something you may have forgotten, or didn't even know about in the first place.

Who is Bob Proctor?

Bob Proctor is widely considered one of the greatest speakers in the world on the topic of getting anything you want out of life. He teaches people how to understand their hidden abilities to do more, be more and have more in every area of life. His teachings are based on Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich, and his delivery is second to none!

For more than 40 years, Bob Proctor has focused his entire agenda around helping people create lush lives of prosperity, rewarding relationships and spiritual awareness. As one of the world's most highly regarded speakers on prosperity, he is internationally known for his inspirational and motivational style.

Bob Proctor knows how to help you because he too came from a life of want and limitation and by listening and learning from Bob, he has helped me and now, it's time for me to pass it on.

That's who Bob Proctor is.

Today, on the 'Super-Trader Traits!', yes, we are covering the Desire to become successful in whatever you choose to do and now is the time for you to go to one of the greatest authors, lecturers, counselors, business consultants, entrepreneurs, and teachers to help catapult you to the life you have always wished for.

This is what the 'Super-Trader Traits!' are all about.

You 'Super-Trader' you!

P.S. So, in order for you to forget your old life, or even look forward to a new life, do pay Bob a visit right here and put his principles into action, today, right now and in the Present Moment.

Just so you know, I've added many links back to Bobs site 'The 11 Forgotten Laws' because I don't want you to forget to click on the link to find out what he can do for you too!

How To Ask For What You Want...Pray

2010-07-21T00:08:00.143+01:00

'Whatsoever Things Ye Desire -

Believe That Ye Receive Them,

And Ye Shall Have Them'

How To Ask For What You Want... Pray

Or better still, how to pray!

So you want to be a 'Super-Trader'? Or a 'Super-Something'? Or you just want to be something or get somewhere/

Check out this link from a church in San Diego, California.

A friend of mine attends that church, so I thought I'd pay it a visit, online and when I watched it, I was impressed in how when the pastor, Miles McPherson said let us pray, he really took his time to pray. I mean Miles and the congregation were so silent for what seemed like a long period of time, it struck me that they were not rushing through the service but they were genuinely taking time to pray and give thanks.

Since you spend so much of your time in need because we all do, I mean, don't you find you want this and that? What if you were to pray in the same fashion?

I did write about traders praying once they found themselves in a trading position, they would rather not be in, that's not you, is it?

Well, if you were to take some time out, figure out what it is you want and then get down to asking or even demanding it, you'll surely get it before you find yourself in a tight spot.

The quote or scipture above is the one I 'Love' to use and focus on and break down, every single day, first thing in the morning, last thing at night and every hour on the hour and as much as I can remember to think about it, throughout my whole day, day after day.

I don't know about you but if all it takes is to 'Believe' you'll get what you ask for, I'm asking and I'm 'Believing' until I get it, then I'll start working on the next thing and the next thing.

This is 'Devotion...', yes, the 'Super-Trader Trait' #4 at it's best!

So why not give it a go, then see what happens.

I Am A Super-Trader!!!

'I'm Not Old Enough To Play Baseball Or Football.

I'm Not Eight Yet.

My Mom Told Me When You Start Baseball,

You Aren't Going To Be Able To Run That Fast

Because You Had An Operation.

I Told Mom I Wouldn't Need To Run That Fast.

When I Play Baseball,

I'll Just Hit Them Out Of The Park.

Then I'll Be Able To Walk.'

~Edward J. McGrath, Jr., "An Exceptional View of Life"
Quoted In Chicken Soup For The Soul
By Jack Canfield & Mark Victor Hansen, 1993

I Am A Super-Trader!!!

Now, you do realise that it's you telling you, you are a 'Super-Trader' and not me telling you I am a 'Super-Trader' even though I do tell myself that too.

If you don't feel so comfortable saying or telling yourself you are a 'Super-Trader' perhaps you can start off by telling yourself you are a good trader, a proficient trader, an exceptional trader and continue working your way up from there.

Yes, tell yourself you are a 'Super-Trader' in trading the financial markets, in business, in dealing with customers, clients and people, in navigating around and making a 'good' living from the internet etc...

By the way, when and if you do call yourself a 'Super-Trader', do you really 'Believe' it? Or do you find yourself at odds (with yourself) just as in the quote at the top of this post where 'Mom' was telling her eight year old boy he wouldn't be able to run that fast because...?

You've got to 'Believe' in what you do, you've got to 'Believe' in you, yourself and yes, you've got to have that 'Desire - A Driving Desire To Become Successful' at whatever you choose to do.

You 'Super-Trader' you!

P.S. Yes, it takes more than just telling yourself you are what you wish to be, it takes action, enough action to experience exactly what the people already in the job or environment you wish to be in are already doing...

What Do You/I Do In Your/My Spare Time?

2010-07-07T00:08:00.185+01:00

'Don't Let The Fear Of The Time It Will Take
To Accomplish Something

Stand In The Way Of Your Doing It.

The Time Will Pass Anyway;

We Might Just As Well Put That Passing Time

To The Best Possible Use.'

~Earl Nightingale

- Search for Earl Nightingale at Amazon.com

So what do you do in your spare time?

So what do I do in my spare time?

Well, what I do in my spare time is what I'm doing now, writing to you. I also like to draw and paint, well, I used to like drawing and painting and just so can see what I used to get up to, have a look at some of my works over here, there will be more added when I get round to it.

Since I found drawing and painting time consuming and a bit of a drain on my energies, I now use my words to paint pictures, well that the way I see it.

Anyway, that's enough about me, so what about you?

Where's your 'Love & Passion' taking you these days?

Are you headed in the direction to you wish to head in?

Do you have a direction you wish to head in?

Just recently I heard it said again that there are so many people there who are doing the things they don't really wish to be doing and they're only doing it a matter of convenience.

That's not you is it?

It used to be me but I still have loads more I wish to do...

I'm sure you've heard about how good life could be trading the financial markets for a living, haven't you?

When I was working full time in the business of 'Hearing Aid Audiology', what I got up to in my spare time was to study the financial markets, I read books about the financial markets, I used to attend courses to do with the financial markets, I watched all of the financial TV channels – and I was 'Loving'...

...and today, I still do.

If you really 'Love' what you do in your spare time, 'perhaps' that may be the very thing you should be, or could be doing, all of the time.

You must have heard that question or statement where it was asked or said that there are jobs, tasks or hobbies that are being done regardless of pay or reward but it's the person who's involved in that activity who, 'Loves' it so much, they'd do it for free.

So what would you do for free?

Hmmm...

There a way to getting paid for what you would be willing to do for free?

If you do have that some thing or one thing that you can get so immersed in and would do whether you were paid for it or not, why not also see if you can serve others with that some thing or one thing and get paid for it?

If you feel getting paid for what you do would spoil the fun, carry on as you are but I'll tell you this, once you can get that some thing or one thing to start giving you an income – and let's use trading the financial markets as our example – you'll find more ways, more ideas and more opportunites in what you do if you just 'Keep Moving Forward'.

Yes, you may hits some hurdles and speed bumps but once you can jump that/one hurdle free and clear, you'll be able to see the next hurdle ahead of you, monitor it, size it up and jump that one too.
And the better you get at what you do and the higher you climb, so too will your hurdles become higher and what will you end up doing?

Jumping those higher hurdles too!

It'll rather be like setting yourself new records... until you reach your own personal best world record, to which you can continually keep on breaking as you reach those higher and higher levels.

It may not always be as easy as you'd like but how else are you expected to stretch yourself and grow?

Yes, I'm telling you this as I speak from experience, the more I do, the more I have to do and the better I feel I become at it because I always seem to end up finding easier and quicker ways to get the job done... and you know I'm talking about trading the financial markets as well as creating and writing these Blogs, don't you?

So, whatever you wish to do, I'd say go and do it, give it a good go and since the rule is to never give in, why should you, as if you do what you 'Love' and 'Love' what you do, especially in your spare time, why stop?

You 'Super-Trader' you!

Dreams...

Beginning again...

Have you ever played with LEGO?

Do you know what LEGO is?

Well, I've put a link up there for you to see, okay?

To see a LEGO construction is amazing... those enthusiasts can make anything and almost any building.

Now, some time ago I was busy assembling a truck with all of the LEGO instructions too and boy was it a challenge. I did manage to complete it, with the help of a little helper but there were times I thought I just wouldn't complete it and there were times when I thought I had done well to find I still had some LEGO pieces still on the table...

...Shock Horror!!!

Yes, to find out I had left a BIG piece of the puzzle (so to speak) out of the equation or construction in this case, so I had to pull it apart and start all over again.

It was fun but it was challenging and I'd say so challenging (for me, that is) that I'd rather leave it to others to get on with.

So, on the subject of things that are challenging, what's your trading like these days or what's that project you're working on like these days?

Is it fun?

Is it challenging?

Do you really want to do it?

Can you do it... with ease, well at least enough ease?

If you enjoy what you do, do it.

If you don't, don't do it (but you may get better at it, if you put in the effort).

Do what you do for the right reasons or better still, find somebody else to do what you're interested in doing for you.

Hmmm...

...how easy would it be to find somebody to do your trading for you?

You know what?

There maybe some info coming soon on that subject but let's keep it hush hush for now, okay?

Playing with LEGO can be fun, playing or trading the financial markets can be fun, running your business can be fun but what about when you finish your LEGO construction, your trade for the day, your business for the day?

You've got to repeat the process over again on a different construction, or a different trade, or a different business transaction.

Do what you 'Love' and follow your Dream/s!!!'

Do you have the 'Love & Passion' for doing what you do?

Do you have the remaining 'Super-Trader Traits!' 'Mastered' or at least under control, to do what you do?

I 'Think' you do and all you need to be told is, you do!

P.S. You know what?

Just like Flavia Weedn said in the quote above, when or if you lose on a trade, that's the equivalent of; 'One Dream Falling And Breaking Into A Thousand Pieces' but it's up and down to you and all of us to: 'Never Being Afraid To Pick One Of Those Pieces Up And Begin Again'.

That's 'Super-Trader Trait' #10 isn't it?

Yes, go look it up but then again, you may have memorised it, you diligent person you!

And to increase and improve your diligence, there are a ton of products over here for you to look at and try.

With me, it's all about getting better at what you do and letting others do the things for you, that you cannot do – but right here, you'll be able to learn or get into a new trick or two.

And one more thing, if you haven't found your Dream yet, don't stop looking!!!

Do You Rejoice, At All Times?

'Rejoice In Our Sufferings'

~Romans 5:3

- Search for Rejoicing at Amazon.com

Wow!!!

Are you able to 'Rejoice In Your Sufferings'?

I'm not so sure I can but I do my best – but since I find even getting out of bed suffering, I do 'Rejoice' that I can at least get out of bed, by myself and unaided.

So I wonder if that's what the above quote means?

Well, I know it's mean a lot more than that because here's the full verse for you as taken from my Mum's Bible 'The New King James Version':

'And Not Only That,

But We Also Glory In Tribulations,

Knowing That Tribulation Produces Perseverance.'

~Romans 5:3

Well, well, well, you know what that reminds me of, don't you?

It reminds me of 'Super-Trader Trait' #10: Resilience - Overcoming Significant Obstacles To Reach Their Goal'.

Think about it...

...if you keep on flitting from one thing to the other because you didn't like it, or it didn't treat you right, or because it wasn't successful without at least putting all of your effort into it...

... you're just going to continue flitting for the rest of your days until you stop and thrash it out with that thing, and that thing usually ends up being yourself.

Trading can be hard, trading can be difficult, it makes you work and work hard but there are easier ways, or simpler ways to do it.

It takes 'Discipline' and having to endure 'Discipline' is suffering but once you can distill within yourself the habit of 'Discipline', it becomes something to be proud of and 'Rejoice' about... silently, behind closed doors and in prayer, of course.

It takes 'Confidence' and having to remain 'Confident' in the face of adversity is suffering but once you can distill within yourself the habit of 'Confidence', it becomes something to be proud of and 'Rejoice' about... silently, behind closed doors and in prayer, of course.

In fact, do you know what i need to do, I need you and me to have another look at the 'Super-Trader Traits!' again:

The Traits Of A Super-Trader Are:

1. Acceptance Of Losses & Losing

2. Confidence

3. Desire - A Driving Desire To Become Successful

4. Devotion - A Substantial Amount Of Their Waking Hours Is Given To Market Analysis & Trading Strategy

5. Discipline

6. Independence

7. Love & Passion For Trading

8. Methodology - To Which They Remained True

9. Patience

10. Resilience - In Overcoming Significant Obstacles To Reach Their Goal

11. Rigid Risk Control

I would say to be able to follow each one of the above traits causes a degree of suffering and since life is suffering...

...if you really analyse it, you'll find there are so many things you may not wish to do, it makes you suffer, doesn't it? Even though they or it may be good and right for you – that's why you may end up doing the things you want to do because it's easy but...

...it doesn't get you anywhere!!!

Yes, I would say to be able to follow each one of the above traits causes a degree of suffering but if you can endure the suffering, the change and follow the 'Super-Trader Traits!' to achieve your 'Goals', you'll do just fine, in all you choose to do.

You 'Super-Trader' you!

P.S. For those of us who are here, what else is there to do but 'Rejoice' because we are here.

And I'm sure you do 'Rejoice' at least one time in your life from year to year, even if it's only for a fleeting moment... but if you can hold onto that moment, in the 'Present Moment' and expand on it, you'll have more and more to 'Rejoice' in.

Yes, I have my moments and I realise I have my moments of suffering most when I'm tired or just don't know what to do next.

So here's my advice:

1. Get lots of rest...

2. Set some plans...

#7: Hope - Master It By Use!!!

Well, I 'Hope' you enjoyed this 7 part series of the '7 Major Positive Emotions' but more importantly, I 'Hope' you've got some good use out it them too.

'Hope' is a powerful emotion as what you 'Hope' for, deep down, so deep, you're not even aware you're 'Hoping' for it but all you know is you want something passionately, that what you 'Hope' for often comes to you but you've got to be on the alert when it comes your way.

As written by Napoleon Hill in his book 'Think And Grow Rich', 'Hope' is the 7th Major Positive Emotion and by simply becoming aware for that which you 'Hope' for and working on it and moving towards it with concentrated effort, you will surely receive all you 'Ask, Seek, Knock' and 'Hope' for, without a shadow of doubt...

...and if you are aware of any doubts within your fibre, drop them right now!

By the way, if you 'Hope' to do well at what you do, just 'Hoping' won't get you there, you do have to apply some work too and hard work should not be shyed away from either.

So for a list of 'Hopes' all taken from the Good Book mind you, 'Please Click Here' to see them all (the list, that is) and from there, I'll leave it to you to continue your search of all you 'Hope' for.

So what are you 'Hoping' for, or 'Hoping' to do? Only you know.

Why not create your own personal timetable to get up and do what you know you must do, you know, just like that timetable 'The Man' gives you when you're told what time to get into work, what time to have a tea break, a lunch break and what time to leave.

Create a timetable for yourself based on all of the things you 'Hope' for and 'Hope' to do and all of your 'Hopes' will become a reality.

So, in ending this 7 part series, we have:

The Seven Major Positive Emotions

The emotion of DESIRE

The emotion of FAITH

The emotion of LOVE

The emotion of SEX

The emotion of ENTHUSIASM

The emotion of ROMANCE

The emotion of HOPE

They're good to use and they'll get you to the place you wish to get to, that's if you have mapped it out, so Master Them By Use!!!

And you know what?

The 7 Major Positive Emotions aren't much different from the 'Super-Trader Traits! which are as follows:

The Traits Of A Super-Trader Are:

2. Confidence

3. Desire - A Driving Desire To Become Successful

#6: Romance - Master It By Use!!!

Are you a 'Romantic'?

Have you ever been told you are a 'Romantic'?

If you have been told you were or are a 'Romantic', what did it feel like?

Didn't you feel good? Even if you perhaps denied you were as such, you know, a 'Romantic'.

As written by Napoleon Hill in his book 'Think And Grow Rich', 'Romance' is the 6th Major Positive Emotion and by simply adding the emotion of 'Romance' in all you do by wooing what you do and who you meet, you will surely get much done by having others (and the Universe) willingly help you in your endeavours.

Have you ever heard of the technique of wooing money?

It's said that if you want money, you need to woo and 'Romance' money, much in the way you would woo or 'Romance' those you 'Love', or even wish to get the attention of as in a courtship.

'Romance' is a positive emotion, it's a good emotion and it fits in well with the 'Super-Trader Traits!', can you see where?

Just 'Think' of what you would be willing to do to 'Romance' the person who's attentions you 'Desire' to capture, you could do and go through exactly the same actions to capture anything and I mean anything you wish to do or acquire.

'Think' about it!

'Think' about those thoughts and energies you put into doing what you've done to achieve or complete that thing you always wanted to do.

For you who 'Romanced' well, you are most likely now with the one you 'Love', now go do likewise with what it is you wish to achieve in life, even if it's deciphering that ever elusive trading technique you've always been looking for.

As for me, I remember the greatest prize was when I was 'Romancing' the one who ignored my advances and when I finally won them over, I was on top of the world and if you use the same approach, in all you do, you will be on top of the world too, always and at all times!

Why?

Because you'll know you'll be able to achieve anything... and you can!!!

#5: Enthusiasm - Master It By Use!!!

How would you feel if you were asked to do something or get involved in something you weren't too 'Enthusiastic' about?

I suppose you wouldn't really want to do it, would you?

So, what about what you're involved in right now, are you truly 'Enthusiastic' about it, or are you finding it a real drag and burden, just to even 'Think' about it?

As written by Napoleon Hill in his book 'Think And Grow Rich', 'Enthusiasm' is the 5th Major Positive Emotion and by simply applying 'Enthusiasm' into all you do, you'll surely be able to do those very things well, very well.

I don't know about you but there have been times when I've been asked to do something or go somewhere and even after I was there, doing it, my 'Enthusiasm' for doing it was just not there, no matter how hard I attempted to put that 'Enthusiasm' into it. Has that ever happened to you?

So you know what?

I gauge my feelings by what I'm doing and if I don't like it, I don't do it.

I've written before about there are so many people jumping into the world of trading, simply because they can – and simply because they 'Believe' they can profit from it but I wonder if they put any 'Enthusiasm' into it?

What about you?

Are you 'Enthusiastic' about trading, or something else?

People 'Love' to be around other people who are 'Enthusiastic' about what they do, so if you like to be around 'Enthusiastic' people, why not start with yourself by being that 'Enthusiastic' person...

...and if you wish to be heard, if people can see your actions by what you 'Believe' in and are 'Enthusiastic' about, those people will surely and automatically listen to what you have to say.

Go on, give it a go, test it out!

The emotion of 'Enthusiasm' is an excellent gauge for telling you if what you're doing is, let's say, right for you, or wrong for you, so be sure to use your 'Enthusiasm' wisely and in the right place.

You 'Super-Trader' you!

...The Buyer & Seller

P.S. Find what you like to do, in fact, why not fill your life with everything you like to do and you'll serve the world in a much better, happier and more 'Enthusiastic' way.

What's that?

Your 'Enthusiasm' wanes from time to time?

If your 'Enthusiasm' goes up and down, well, what you need to do is to get it at a steady keel, if you pay this site a visit, you'll find many products and ideas to help keep your 'Enthusiasm' way up there. It all takes practice you know – and with practice, lots of it, you can and will form excellent habits, good ones!!!

And being and staying 'Positive' is a good habit to acquire, don't you 'Think'?

#4: Sex - Master It By Use!!!

Woah!!!

Here's one that might make you jump out of your seat!!!

But you know what, what we're talking about is the spiritual side to 'Sex', you know, the driving force behind what 'Sex' is all about and not the action of 'Sex' itself.

As written by Napoleon Hill in his book 'Think And Grow Rich', 'Sex' is the 4th Major Positive Emotion and by simply concentrating on the driving force behind what you are willing to do to indulge in the act of 'Sex', if you were to take those same feelings and emotions and turn them to doing something else like your trading, building a business or serving humanity, there would be absolutely nothing that you would not be capable of doing.

It's said a man would lie steal and even commit an act of murder in order to fulfill his passions, re: the passions of 'Sex'.

A man in an ill state of health would leave his sick bed in the wee hours of the morning and trek halfway across town (or even the country) to be with the person they he wishes to be with...

...for just a few fleeting moments of... you know what.

But what if 'you' could vent those very same feelings and put them all into doing what you do, such as moving ahead (that's if you want to move ahead), what do 'you' 'Think' 'you' would be capable of doing?

Have a good 'Think' about it!

The next time you have those sexual urges, figure out what it is you're feeling and do your best to see how you could use those same feelings and urges and use them to perhaps get out of bed that bit earlier to do the things you don't feel like doing but know you must.

Many fortunes have been built where the person in question took the emotion of 'Sex' and channelled it into a different medium and they're still building fortunes today on the same emotions.

The emotion of 'Sex' is one of the most powerful Positive Emotions and used in the right way where it's not squandered in the act of overdoing it (so to speak) and expending all of your energy and worth, many of your 'Goals' would be achieved in far less time than they otherwise would have been.

'All Things In Moderation.'

And to get as close as I can re: the quote: 'All Things In Moderation' we have:

'And Everyone Who Competes For The Prize

Is Temperate In All Things.'

~1 Corinthians 9:25

So if you wish to compete for the prize, whatever it is you see as the prize, you now know what to do.

P.S. 'Sex' is said to be good for ones health and 'Sex' leads to the procreation of mankind and on the further subject of 'Sex' have a read from this site http://www.worldwidewords.org/qa/qa-sow1.htm as written from Michael Quinion, it's all to do with the origin of the saying in relation to 'Sex' or in the saying: 'Sowing Wild Oats'.

Anyway, do your best to take one of the most powerful emotions there is and that is of 'Sex' and divert them elsewhere, transmute the emotion to that place where you wish to get to, to doing something really important and meaningful to you and those around you and then see what happens.

And on the subject of doing things and making things happen, come and have a good old look over here, have a shop around, there's not a lot of 'Sexy' stuff on this site but it is appealing and it is all for your good, learning, fun, enjoyment and progress.

#3: Love - Master It By Use!!!

Have you ever been in 'Love'?

Are you in 'Love' at the moment?

Okay, if your not sure what being in 'Love' is all about, what about being involved in something you 'Love' to do, such as a pastime or caring for someone or something such as a pet...?

As written by Napoleon Hill in his book 'Think And Grow Rich', 'Love' is the 3rd Major Positive Emotion and by simply concentrating on what you 'Love' and using that same feeling and emotion in all you do, you'll surely be able to do more of what you do with true 'Love & Passion'.

Things don't always work out the way you want, do they?

You may 'Love' someone with all of your heart but they may not 'Love' you in equal measure but they may still 'Love' you, to their own degree.

What about what you 'Love' in the way of what you put your heart into, how much better do you 'Think' you may be able do what you do?

Put it this way, if you do not 'Love' what you 'DO', how well do you 'Think' you'll be able to do that?

Find out what it is you wish to do, 'Think' about what you'd 'Love' to do and go do it, as, if you 'Love' what you do, what you do will end up giving you an increase of 'Love' for what you do, as you'll find yourself enjoying what you do...

...and the more you enjoy what you do, the more 'Passion' will arise from doing that which you 'Love'.

I'd say don't go doing things because it looks good, be sure to 'Love' the idea first (with 'True Love') and 'Love' what it is you're involved with and you're sure to do well at it.

Give a smile, you get a smile, give 'Love' you get 'Love', even if it takes time to come your way, you'll find it eventually...

...and the same goes for finding that business or that interest or that trading technique...

...if you're looking, you'll find it!

And on the subject of looking for something, even 'Love', have a good old look over here to see what fits the bill, just for you. There are many, many choices of things to do in this world and you know what? I aim to have them all on this site, in one way or another, don't you just 'Love' that idea?

'Love' is a good emotion to use in all you do...

...have a 'Love & Passion' for what you do that's worth doing and for what you feel is not worth doing, as it may end up being the thing you were meant to be doing in the first place!

#2. Faith - Master It By Use!!!

Hmmm...

...how's your 'Faith' these days?

How are all of those plans you've got in mind going?

What about the projects you've already started, are you still a 'Rocking & Rolling' with them?

Are you still on track?

As written by Napoleon Hill in his book 'Think And Grow Rich', 'Faith' is the 2nd Major Positive Emotion and by simply (he said) concentrating on what you have 'Faith' in and 'Believe' in will ultimately create even more 'Belief' and your 'Faith' will surely grow.

Now since 'Faith' is spiritual, I'm giving you a grand old choice of the menaing of 'Faith' as derived from the good book, you know, The Bible.

The source of my information re: 'Faith' was taken from: http://bible.cc/hebrews/11-1.htm and here they are, all based on 'Faith' all from different Bibles but from the same 'Faith'.

New International Version (©1984)
Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

New Living Translation (©2007)
Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see.

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.

New American Standard Bible (©1995)

Webster's Bible Translation

World English Bible
Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen.

Young's Literal Translation
And faith is of things hoped for a confidence, of matters not seen a conviction.

Different versions, different ways of saying things but with all the same meaning.

You need 'Faith' just to be able to 'Think' about doing the next thing you intend to do five minutes from now, so why not push your 'Faith' a bit further, bit by bit and day by day to even Bigger things to do?

Let 'Faith' be your catalyst to all the things you wish to do and then do them well and do them right!

#1. Desire - Master It By Use!!!

You know all about 'Desire', with reference to the 'Super-Trader Traits!' don't you?

Y'know, 'Desire - A Driving Desire To Become Successful'

As written by Napoleon Hill in his book 'Think And Grow Rich', 'Desire' is the 1st Major Positive Emotion and by simply concentrating on what you 'Desire' and 'Believing' what you 'Desire' will come to pass and you will ultimately create even more 'Desire'.

How's about 'Desiring' the trait of developing even more 'Desire'?

That's one worth practicing to see what happens, don't you 'Think'?

Yes, it just so happens that 'Desire' is 'Super-Trader Trait' #3 and since it is a Positive Emotion, or more to the point a Major Positive Emotion, have a good 'Think' about the meaning behind the word 'Major' and then get to work.

Yes, all it takes is to 'Think' about what you want, 'Practice' 'Thinking' about it with all of your might and thereafter, continually look around you for that which you 'Desire' and you'll find it because everything you already want is already here, you've just got to spot it, when it passes you by.

And if you don't look with earnest for what you want, you'll never find what you're looking for!

You 'Super-Trader' you!

P.S. I know you have 'Desire', 'Desire' for something and perhaps just that 'one thing' and if that's the case, if you only have 'one thing' that you 'Desire', you have a far better chance of getting it, since your focus will be on that 'one thing' only.

Take time out to work on what you 'Desire' and of course, if it's trading the financial markets, focus on what it is you wish to achieve from the markets and go for it but of course, you've got to have a plan, a 'Methodology'.

If you have no idea what to do, have a look over here to see what 'tickles your fancy', and from here, from this site (click here to see what I mean) it's really easy to build and develop a true 'Desire' to doing something, or just one thing. So have a look right now... that's if you have the 'Desire' to getting something done.

Have you seen the movie 'Edison The Man'?

It's a brilliant movie and comes 'Highly Recommended' to watch and study...

...it stars Spencer Tracy, playing the role of Thomas Alva Edison, so get your copy today, right here! as it's very educational.

I like to watch Spencer Tracy movies and I like Edison.

The movie Edison The Man portrayed Edison as having naps, time outs, or power snoozes whenever he was stumped by any particular problem...

...and since Edison was in the business of inventing, inventing things that people had never heard of or even 'Believed' could be invented, he surely was up against having many moments where he became stumped and therefore had to stop, rest and regroup his ideas.

How often do you become stumped when trading, whether it be trading the financial markets or trading your goods, wares and services?

You know what?

It's good to sleep, rest, or lie down in bed (or anywhere), 'Thinking'.

I know you've heard what I'm about to write and it's this:

How many times have you had a seemingly unsolvable problem, issue or challenge, to then go to bed to wake up with the answer either during the night, or upon rising the next morning?

I'll tell you this now, I spend as much time as I can, sleeping, or resting as that's where my ideas flow from and you could, or maybe should, do the same.

Now, have a read of this excerpt as taken from accessmylibrary.com in reference to Thomas Alva Edison:

'The most pervasive legend was that he (Edison) slept only a few hours out of every twenty-four.

It was, in reality, a smokescreen.... While in his young years there were stretches when he drove himself and others past the point of exhaustion, he always managed to catch up on his sleep afterward.

[Edison associate Alfred O.] Tate related: "His genius for sleep equalled his genius for invention. He could go to sleep anywhere, any time, on anything." He and his secretary once went to the beach for the weekend, and Edison slept thirty-six hours straight with only a two-hour interruption for a dinner of steak, potatoes, and apple pie. It was common for him to work a day and a night, taking occasional naps at the laboratory, then go to bed at Glenmont for eighteen hours.

It was another example of the division between the ideal and the practical. Ideally, Edison contended: "Sleep is an acquired habit. Cells don't sleep. Fish swim about in the water all night; they don't sleep. Even a horse don't sleep, he just stands still and rests. A man don't need any sleep." In practice, Edison did like everyone else, and went to sleep.'

End of excerpt.

P.S. I've written about the ability to 'Think' so often and since you do have the ability to 'Think', why not take advantage of that ability, to 'Think' some more, as who knows what you might come up with.

If you happen to come up with a new idea, based on an old idea, that's good and that's okay, as that's seen as being a true 'Super-Trader Trait'. So, no matter what you do, you'll always be able to find a way, a path and an opportunity to achieve 'Super-Trader Traits!' status, from whatever starting point you may be at.

Also, if you want a good head start on what to do, especially if trading is not your bag, have a look over here to see what you could get up to, as in watch, purchase or learn.

Are You The One Who's Life Is As Smooth As Silk?

2010-04-30T00:08:00.160+01:00

'Success Seems To Be Largely A Matter Of Hanging

On After Others Have Let Go.'

~William Feather

- Search for William Feather at Amazon.com

Just the other day I was sitting there, staring at my screens and feeling sorry for myself...

...now at the time I had no real idea why I was feeling that way but I thought it important enough to write it down and let you know.

You know what?

I started 'Thinking' as to whether there was anybody out there whose life was free from trouble and strife.

Oh, by the way, did you know that the term 'Trouble & Strife' is the 'Cockney Rhyming Slang' which means 'Wife'? I thought I'd just let you know that, yes, there's a bit of English education, as told from England itself.

So where was I?

Oh yes, who do you know who lives a life without setbacks, trouble, strife, hurdles to jump and mountains to climb?

Do you ever think if there is anybody out there who's life is unhampered by life's frustrations?

Do you ever feel the 'Grass Is Greener' on the other side of the fence?

I was feeling it!

Why?

Maybe because of the things I knew I wanted to do, more so than had to do.

Maybe it's because I am so ambitious that I feel what I feel.

I'll tell you this, the more I do, the more frustrated I get at times.

Now why is this so?

Because I want to do more and I want to do better...

...and the way I get around it is to write down what's on my mind, I also write down what I need to do. I write down what I need to do in the way of getting things done that will take me closer and closer to achieving my 'Goals' but the funny thing is, they never ever seem to come to a close.

I sometimes feel I'm getting no closer to what I wish to achieve!!!

You know what?

I'm sure you feel the same at times or maybe even all of the time and if you do, it's okay to feel those feelings. I know it's frustrating at times but if you could just:

'Hold Onto The Thought That Feels Best!'

~Dr Robert Anthony

If you (and I can) 'Hold Onto The Thought That Feels Best!' things will look better! Life will look better.

And all you need to do is see things as looking better and if you can hold onto those thoughts, feelings and images long enough, things will not only look better but will be better.

What comes to mind as I write is the 'Super-Trader Trait' #9: Patience and even though I feel like I'm being 'Patient' enough, as I said before, I still feel I'm not getting anywhere but by using a bit of 'Methodology, Confidence' and in fact all of the other 'Super-Trader Traits!' you'll surely get to your 'Desired' destination.

If you can 'Picture' your life as being as smooth as silk, by picturing 'Success' in what it is you wish to do and don't look back or sideways, before you know it, all of your (mental) 'Pictures' will be your reality...

...and once you get there, I know you'll want to move on up to the next level, just to start those feelings you had in the first place all over again.

Why?

Because it's natural and that's progress!

You 'Super-Trader' you!

...The Buyer & Seller

P.S. To feel the feeling of frustration is a good sign, did you know that? It means you 'Desire' something. It doesn't feel good at the time you're feeling it but if you can knuckle down to figure out what it is you 'Desire' and need to get done, get started and get solving, you'll 'Keep Moving Forward'. That's the way Walt Disney did it.

Life is short...

...in the grand scheme of things, you won't be here long, so stop looking at what everybody else is doing and start doing something for yourself, yes, just for you.

Not sure what to do?

You could trade the financial markets from here, you could buy the 'Super-Trader Traits!' eBook from here or you could choose to do what ever you wish to do, from here.

Do something about your life and your situation, right now, right here and right, in the 'Present Moment'.

Problems, Problems, Problems...

2010-04-28T00:08:00.158+01:00

'We Are All Faced With A Series Of Great Opportunities

Brilliantly Disguised As Insoluble Problems.'

~John W. Gardner:

Was The Secretary Of Health, Education And Welfare

- Search for John W. Gardner at Amazon.com

So what is John saying...

...that 'Problems' are definitely 'Opportunities'?

I did write a post on 'Opportunities', over here and here: http://supertradertraits.blogspot.com/2009/05/opportunityisnowhere.html

Brian Tracy (the self-help author) once said that life is full of problems and every so often a crisis crops up. So what if you were to take every 'Problem' and turn it around to make it an 'Opportunity', how much better do you 'Think' your life may be?

Hey, you may even end up looking forward to 'Problems', knowing they are simply there to be solved.

As a 'Super-Trader', you will be faced with 'Problems' every day you trade or even 'Think' of trading and it is up and down to you to 'work out the solution' to your 'Problems', pending or otherwise.

This is, once again where the 'Super-Trader Traits!' comes into play.

Do you remember what they are?

Yes?

No?

Well, here they are again as a reminder, just for you:

The Traits Of A Super-Trader Are:

1. Acceptance Of Losses & Losing

2. Confidence

3. Desire - A Driving Desire To Become Successful

4. Devotion - A Substantial Amount Of Their Waking Hours Is Given To Market Analysis & Trading Strategy

5. Discipline

6. Independence

7. Love & Passion For Trading

8. Methodology - To Which They Remained True

9. Patience

10. Resilience - In Overcoming Significant Obstacles To Reach Their Goal

11. Rigid Risk Control

So, it sounds like each one of the 'Super-Trader Traits!' are 'Problems' just waiting to be solved, before they even begin.

To be the very best you can be, you've got to embrace life and all it has to offer...

...'Problems' and all – and then go and solve them.

Why not be the best ever 'Problem Solver' that came to pass?

You can do it!

You 'Super-Trader' you!

Chat Soon!

...The Buyer & Seller

P.S. In the world of 'Math' or 'Mathematics' you know, 'Numbers', each exercise is looked upon or more importantly called a 'Problem'. And many a time those 'Problems' are often solved and when they are, it tends to push mankind forward, to make man more advanced in his 'Thinking'.

But on a smaller scale, a much smaller scale, being your scale, being you in the grand scheme of things, you wouldn't have to work nowhere near as hard as those mathematicians, figuring out this and that, solving 'Problems' for others, which may or may not benefit them (the mathematicians that is) directly...

...but to solve your own 'Problems' first, it will benefit you directly and all around you.

You could truly do and achieve Great things and over here, there are many great things you could achieve, without even having to crunch not one number, no, not one.

How much easier could that make your life and all you do?

How much easier could that help you to solve your 'Problems' by getting you to where you wish to be, with greater ease?

Can You Control Yourself?

2010-04-26T00:08:00.130+01:00

'Never Let Yesterday Use Up Too Much Of Today.'

~Will Rogers: Humorist

- Search for Will Rogers at Amazon.com

Where I asked:

Can You Control Yourself?

Come to 'Think' of it, I know you can control yourself but perhaps not in all aspects of your life. But after reading what Will Rogers had to say and after 'Thinking' about it for a good part of the day, I thought it such a good idea to heed what he said.

What if you were to start each day with a totally clean slate, you know, what if you were to totally forget what happened yesterday and started today from 'a point of zero', what do you 'Think' you might be capable of?

In the past when I've placed trades (in the financial markets) and lost, I found it so hard to forget about it... to a point where I did not want to forget about it and from there, I often went back into another trade with revenge on my mind.

I guess, after a losing trade, I placed another trade in a sort of 'Blind Rage' and sort of hoped for the best.

I know what it's like...

...you spend a ton of time 'Thinking' and calculating which way to go in the markets, you deliberate for so long and with all of your figuring out behind you, you place your trade, you make your decision, you act on it, to find it's a losing trade, that things are not working out based on your decision, that you wish you had waited a little longer from taking action.

But how long can you wait?

You have to do something, sometime...

...but if it doesn't go according to plan, the best thing to do is re-plan but with a totally different outlook, just as though everything went well in the first place. Is that something to do with 'Acceptance Of Losses & Losing, Confidence, Desire, Devotion' and all of the other 'Super-Trader Traits!'?

Could you follow and stick to the 'Never Let Yesterday Use Up Too Much Of Today' principle?

Since you are adaptable and since you have the ability to adapt to change and circumstances I feel pretty sure you could stick to the 'Never Let Yesterday Use Up Too Much Of Today' principle but it does take practice, just like everything else worth doing takes practice.

Yes, life is hard at times but since you're already here, why not live it to the best of your abilities and do it right by exercising just a little bit more (self) control.

You 'Super-Trader' you!

Chat Soon!

...The Buyer & Seller

P.S. Yes, (just the other day) I sat down imagining I had no true idea of what went on yesterday (you know, the day before) but only thought of what I wanted to get on with today, right now, in the 'Present Moment'.

So how did I get on and what was my result?

I had a good day! And so can you. Find something to do that makes you happy, feel good, is fun to do (for you) and can be done with a fair amount of ease to you too and I reckon, you'll hardly ever need to let yesterday use up too much of today, without even trying.

By the way, over here, you'll find a whole host of things you can get on with that are pretty straight forward but at the same time will aid and assist you in moving forward to make all of your tomorrows truly memorable ones.

Can You Go The Distance?

'Perseverance Is Not A Long Race;

It Is Many Short Races One After Another.'

~Walter Elliott, The Spiritual Life

- Search for Walter Elliott at Amazon.com

Boy oh boy...

...I'm sure I've mentioned this before but trading the financial markets day after day can be a bit of a strain and drain on your energy, can't it?

Well, if it is a strain and drain on your energy, you don't have to trade everyday you know.

I know you may 'feel' you need to trade everyday but this is where you'll need to brush up on your 'Super-Trader Traits!', you know, perhaps you need to work on your 'Discipline & Patience.'

Everybody wants to be winner (not a winer) and that's good but when it comes to trading and if you were to win, win, win, which is what you must expect, when will you take a break, from what you do before you tire, or wear yourself out and start to give back what you've gained?

When I trade, I look for reasons not to trade and it's as I write, I have made yet another decision to tighten up my trading rules and if I don't happen to hit target in my allotted trading time, so be it – and from now on, I personally wish to keep my trading hour down to one hour and that's it.

Could you do that?

You know, choose a time to trade and come what may, you stick to it. If you trade over your allotted time, I guess that could be classed as overtime but how much overtime are you willing to do?

Continually work on your trading 'Methodology' and with that in place and 'Mastered', you'll definitely be able to go the distance, by simply taking one step at a time.

You 'Super-Trader' you!

Chat Soon!

...The Buyer & Seller

P.S. So can you really go the distance in trading day after day, week after week, month after month and year after year. I'm sure you've gone the distance in many other ventures and avenues in your life, so that means you can go the distance in something and one thing – and do it well too.

Find out what it is you're really good at and getting cracking and don't stop looking or 'Thinking' about it until you find it, or it finds you – as what comes to you could just be your 'True Purpose' in life.

Not sure what to do at times? How to earn? How to learn? But yet still, you still yearn?

Have a look over here for guidance.

I'd say, as well as trading, have another interest at heart, have another way to earn, that'll take some of the pressures off, yes, why not go for multiple streams of income just as the world's highest earners do? And keep on at it! Never give up!

What Marie Curie Had To Say About Perseverance

2010-04-21T00:08:00.139+01:00

'Life Is Not Easy For Any Of Us.

But What Of That?

We Must Have Perseverance.'

~Marie Curie

- Search for Marie Curie at Amazon.com

You know what?

I'll be the first to second what Marie said re: 'Life Is Not Easy For Any Of Us... and Perseverance...?

I know you may feel at times it's okay for everybody else but as Bob Marley said in one of his songs and I quote:

'Every Man Thinketh His Burden Is The Heaviest.'

But is your burden really the heaviest?

And if it is, what are you doing about it?

I have now finished my radio gig and boy did that add some flavour into my life, as well as fatigue and tiredness, as for a while I was still continuing to do all of the other things I was doing before I started my radio stint.

But I realised that I had to cut something out, in order to get the other things done. I too felt my burden was heavy, I too felt it was not easy until I thought about 'Super-Trader Trait' #10 'Resilience - Overcoming Obstacles To Reach Their/Your Goal.'

So I decided to rest more by going to bed earlier and waking up later, I decided to cut out some of my tasks, to give myself more time to fill in the newer tasks.

That was my way to tackle the 'Perseverance' I needed to use.

To do that I had to use:

1. Acceptance Of Losses & Losing

2. Confidence

3. Desire - A Driving Desire To Become Successful

4. Devotion - A Substantial Amount Of Their Waking Hours Is Given To Market Analysis & Trading Strategy

5. Discipline

6. Independence

7. Love & Passion For Trading

8. Methodology - To Which They Remained True

9. Patience

10. Resilience - In Overcoming Significant Obstacles To Reach Their Goal

11. Rigid Risk Control

Yes, I had to use all of the 'Super-Trader Traits!' to get through that time and looking back on it, it all turned out okay.

So what are you having to use 'Perseverance' on right now, at this very moment, in the 'Present Moment'?

Whatever it is, you can do it, you can see it through, you must see it through, so take what you need here and there from the 'Super-Trader Traits!' to help you see it through because if Marie Curie could do it abd get through it, so could you!

You 'Super-Trader' you!

Chat Soon!

...The Buyer & Seller

P.S. We all know to trade the financial markets takes a ton of 'Perseverance' at times but so does everything else you do. Maybe you can't see what it takes to get certain things done but yet still you feel it.

What if you were to separate your feelings from what you know you have to do, I wonder how much of a difference that would make in your life?

Anyway, there is much to do and if trading is not your bag, have a look over here to see what else you could get up to. You never know, you may find yourself continuing from where Marie Curie left off through aiding and assisting the world with the next solution for what ails us.

Who And What Do You Really Pay Attention To?

'I Pay Attention To Myself.'

~Jim Rogers

American Investor And Financial Commentator

- Search for Jim Rogers at Amazon.com

It was Wednesday, it was the 17th of March 2010 and it was CNBC that I was watching and Jim Rogers the American Investor and Financial Commentator was being interviewed.

The hosts of the show – on CNBC that is, asked Jim whether he paid any attention to what the Government, Wall Street, the Forex Market or anybody else had to say about the market situation...

...and you know what Jim said?

Well, you did see the quote above, didn't you? He does not pay attention to what any person or any institution says with regards to the financial markets, he said (and I quote):

'I Pay Attention To Myself.'

~Jim Rogers

Jim is a real 'Live Wire', he's enthusiastic, he speaks his mind and he definitely has his own mind under control as he does not listen to what anybody has to say about the markets...

...after all, whatever anybody says about the markets, even me, it's all based on opinions and perceptions.

The only thing that is really real about the markets is what you 'See', 'Know' and 'Believe'.

So, the best thing to pay attention to, is yourself...

...immerse yourself so deeply into what you do and learn to do it your way, as after all, a true 'Super-Trader' who has true 'Independence' never needs to talk to anybody else about what they 'Think', 'Know' and 'Do' with regards to the financial markets...

...but I do know you like a bit of company at times, so that's okay too!

You 'Super-Trader' you!

Chat Soon!

...The Buyer & Seller

P.S. Listening to CNBC or Bloomberg TV can give you quite a lift to see all the different types of people involved in the financial markets...

...it will give you a feeling of hope as many of the experts in the trading world are well into their 60's and 70's and they're still buzzing and going strong. I guess, if you can stay with your trading game long enough, in time you will develop your own trading style, your own thoughts, your own 'Beliefs' and your own understanding...

...yes, that is true trading 'Independence!'

Nature Is Patience, Patience Is Nature...

2010-04-16T00:08:00.228+01:00

'The Ox Is Slow

But The Earth Is Patient.'

High Road to China (1983) Starring Tom Selleck

- Search for Tom Selleck at Amazon.com

When I first saw the movie 'High Road to China' where Tom Selleck was told: 'The Ox Is Slow But The Earth Is Patient', he raised an eyebrow and I and my friends burst out laughing because Tom was being portrayed as being someone who was always in a hurry to do this and that and you could see he had no idea what was being said to him.

Also, the quote did sound a bit corny at the time – but in my silence, I realised the importance and meaning of the saying.

Now how old was I at the time?

23!!!

I was practicing the 'Martial Arts' in those days and I (thought I) knew what 'Patience' meant but looking back it seems I only had a modicum of 'Patience' and you know what? I'm not really sure I knew what it was when I was in my twenties...

...but now!!!

I'm still learning and still figuring it all out!

So, do you wish to know the meaning behind the above quote?

Here it is:

'The Ox is universally a symbol of slow, plodding, working in the fields or rice paddies, dragging the plough. But it gets the job done.

The Earth is Patient expresses the meaning that time does not matter to Nature.

On a symbolic level, the phrase refers to man, ploughing the field with the Ox. The Earth (a symbolic representation of all Nature) is not in a hurry.

Seasons come and seasons go.

All in its time.

In other words:

We learn from this phrase:

'Persistence And Patience Are Virtues To Be Admired.'

That answer or explanation was taken from: Yahoo Answers UK & Ireland from JOHN B and JOHN B, that was an excellent answer too!

Well, it made sense to me, that is!

Each day I wake up and get to doing what I do, my 'Patience' is put to the test, just like yours is and if you 'Think' about it, what is the true reason for you losing your 'Patience'? Why does it happen and what does it really mean?

Trading the financial markets is a good test of your 'Patience', so if you feel you need practice or training in the field of 'Patience', have a go at trading the financial markets.

Treat it like a game or an object of exercise.

But you know what?

Don't go and open a Live trading account just yet, open a Demo account over here. Over here, you be able to test your prowess as a trader and it's as I said, you'll also be able to test your 'Patience' too and you never know, you may just find you are a dab hand at trading, a natural, just like 'Nature.'

Gosh... You Guys Don't Know... The Concentration, The Concentration I Put Into What I Do!

2010-04-14T00:08:00.202+01:00

'The Important Thing Is

To Strive Towards A Goal

Which Is Not Immediately Visible.

That Goal Is Not The Concern Of The Mind,

But Of The Spirit.'

~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry,

Flight To Arras, 1942,

Translated From French By Lewis Galantière

- Search for Antoine de Saint-Exupéry at Amazon.com

There I was sitting down in front of my trading screens and it came to me in a flash that the concentration I put into what I do is 'Immense!!!'.

I mean, I spend the whole day 'Thinking' of what I want to do and when I retire for the night, the last thing I purposely 'Think' of is what I wish to achieve the following day...

...and since I look to achieve the same 'Goal' every day, it makes it easier to know where I'm headed.

One of my 'Goals' is to write this Blog, the other Blog, being the TTT Blog and the other one being the PMS Blog.

Was it my intention to write all of these Blogs?

Not really but one thing just led to another and here I am, enjoying it and that's the key Point...

...enjoy what you do and be sure to make sure it's something you know you can do, with a fair amount of ease – and one thing will definitely lead to another.

Now when it comes to trading, it's so easy to press a button to Buy or Sell a 'Stock, Share or Financial Instrument' but before you do press that button, a fair amount of concentration is needed to go into it – in order to make sure you've got the direction of the move right.

Now you may be right in your choice of direction, as:

1. You may wish to be in your trade for several years, so you wait several years for the markets to go in your direction.

2. You may wish to be in your trade for several months, so you wait several months for the markets to go in your direction.

3. You may wish to be in your trade for several weeks, so you wait several weeks for the markets to go in your direction.

4. You may wish to be in your trade for several days, so you wait several days for the markets to go in your direction.

5. You may wish to be in your trade for several hours, so you wait several hours for the markets to go in your direction.

6. You may wish to be in your trade for several minutes, so you wait several minutes for the markets to go in your direction.

7. You may wish to be in your trade for several seconds, so you wait several seconds for the markets to go in your direction.

That's a lot of wishing but for the most part, that's all there is to it!

But it does take concentration to figure it all out but then again, if you have a 'Methodology - To Which You Remain True', 'Resilience - In Overcoming Significant Obstacles To Reach Your Goal', 'Patience' and all of the other 'Super-Trader Traits!' you'll do just fine.

Using and applying the 'Super-Trader Traits!' takes a fair amount on concentration and it seems you'll have to concentrate on what your concentrating, lest you forget what you're concentrating on in the first place.

You 'Super-Trader' you!

Chat Soon!

...The Buyer & Seller

P.S. So what's it all about?

It's all about 'The Spirit' you put into what you do.

Have you ever heard the expression:

'Put Some Spirit Into It!'

Well I have and I cannot recall where I heard it but I sense they are more than just words to push you forward, as those words involves using your whole being.

What picture does it conjure up in your imagination when you read those words?:

'Put Some Spirit Into It!'

Now if you find trading the financial markets too much to take on, or too much of a drain on your 'Spirit', pay me a visit over here for some light relief, so to speak. Over here you'll find everything and I mean everything you need to meet your needs and suit your tastes...

Could The Skills Of The Military Make You A Better Trader? A Super-Trader?

2010-04-12T00:08:00.222+01:00

'Our Greatest Glory Is Not In Never Failing,

But In Rising Up Every Time We Fail.'

~Ralph Waldo Emerson

- Search for Ralph Waldo Emerson at Amazon.com

If you were to ask what my interests were, I sometimes feel I would have to stop and 'Think' about it but since I like to play video games such as 'Call Of Duty' and 'Medal Of Honour' (in my spare time), that must mean I am interested in something to do with the military.

Another thing is, when any of those classic wars movies are televised such as 'The Great Escape', and others such as 'Saving Private Ryan', I'm watching it and I'm always amazed to see what people had to go through...

...and those who made it should be commended for what they had to endure.

And once again, whenever I watch those war movies or war documentaries, what comes to mind?

Yes, the 'Super-Trader Traits!'

So I had a look online to find out what the military have to go through and this is what I found which comes from the Career Transition Partnership:

Benefits of Military Skills

Service leavers have unrivalled experience and excellent personal qualities. They are in fact part of the "best trained workforce in Britain". They therefore have a great deal to offer employers, not just in their specialist area of expertise, but in terms of the general skills they will have developed while in the forces.

Some Examples of Transferable Skills Possessed by Service Leavers:

Leadership Qualities - Confidence, Independence, Love & Passion, Methodology

Leadership and management skills are highly regarded in the civilian world, and these are developed at all levels in the forces. In fact, many of the leadership and management training techniques first used by the Services, have been adopted by civilian organisations for the development of their staff. A great majority of service personnel are capable instructors, ranging from teaching basic military subjects to highly technical subjects such as electronics or mechanical engineering.

Reliability and Decisiveness - Confidence, Desire, Devotion, Discipline, Independence, Methodology, Patience, Resilience, Rigid Risk Control

They will have been tested in highly demanding and pressurised situations, whether simulated or real crises, and have learned to get it right first time and how to take responsibility for themselves, their actions, and their resources.

Flexibility - Confidence, Desire, Independence, Methodology, Resilience

Service personnel usually change their job location every 2 to 3 years and are used to a degree of upheaval in their working patterns and environment. There are always new challenges to master, and they are quick to learn, picking up new skills with ease and adapting to new circumstances.

Determination and Self-Discipline - Acceptance Of Losses & Losing, Confidence, Desire, Discipline, Independence, Methodology, Patience, Resilience

They face danger and discomfort without lowering their standards, and learn to remain calm and courteous when under considerable provocation. This breeds self-discipline and determination.

Courage and Loyalty - Confidence

Integrity is part of everything that Service people do. They develop not only physical courage, but more importantly moral courage, including loyalty to other team members.

Initiative - Confidence, Desire, Discipline, Independence

There are many occasions in a service career when the individual has to act on his or her own initiative, and to keep going even in extreme circumstances. This breeds the ability to complete goals, self-motivation and self-confidence.

That's It!

Now that all sounds good to me and where you see the 'Super-Trader Traits!', you know, Acceptance Of losses & Losing, Confidence, Desire etc... I added that myself, just for you to show you how it all comes together. If you 'Think' one of the traits should be added or subtracted, please feel free to do so, as I am merely your guide to aid you to see the 'Super-Trader Traits!' in all you do.

By the way, if you require more information re: the Career Transition Partnership please goto: http://www.ctp.org.uk/ctp/employers

So what do you reckon (I like to use the word reckon every so often), do you have any of those Military Skills and qualities?

Maybe you are in or a part of the military?

Or were you in the military?

If so, you'll know exactly what I'm talking and writing about and even if you are not in the military, I'm still pretty sure you know what I'm talking and writing about.

You 'Super-Trader' you!

Chat Soon!

...The Buyer & Seller

P.S. So 'Could The Skills Of The Military Make You A Better Trader? A Super-Trader?' It seems it can and will and the good news is you don't even have to join the military (if you don't wish to) to become a 'Super-Trader!' but now you can see what it takes to get the job done, can't you?
