I don't post here as much as I used to, but I want to leave you with this fantastic analogy. This goes for trading or running a business or life in general. In my experience, this is true.
Just watch... #truth

Sometimes your Friday starts with a tire blowout and you end up burning a few hours waiting for the replacement, which leads to random thoughts you want to share in the hopes they help someone as much as they help you.
If you want respect, you need to stop asking for it.
If you want money, you need to be boring for a long time.
If you want to be heard, you need to stop repeating yourself.
If you want a good relationship, you need to lose some arguments on purpose.
If you want freedom, you need to be able to say no to money.
If you want trust, you need to tell the truth when it costs you.

One of the hardest things for me as a young trader was learning to let shit go.
You make endless decisions, put pressure on yourself, and carry stress you don’t even realize is there.
It’s Friday night. Let it go. Enjoy your life.
We trade to live. We don’t live to trade.

It's funny when people learn that salespeople at a company sometimes make more than the CEO.
No role in the company is more tied to outcome than sales.

My philosophy when I used to hire traders was that the optimal number of past blow ups was one.

I hear people say this market has been hard, or this market has been easy. The truth is, the market is never hard, nor easy. The market is just the market. You win some you lose some, it is not harder nor easier. Different market regimes just have varying impacts on your strategy over time. While you are crushing it, someone else is getting their hat handed to them, and while they are killing it, you may be taking losses. If you keep this balance in your mind it takes a much smaller psychological toll on you over time. The market is literally never "hard" for me. My expense rate is just higher during some regimes. That's it.
