You see, you can be putting in the hours, days and nights into plotting charts, doing endless hours of research on companies, industry news ,etc and yet for some reasons, you are not seeing the success you want in your trading (and investment).
Your actions are determined by the way of your thinking. And there is 2 parts to your mind - the conscious part (creative) and the subconscious (servant or follower)part.
So, someone can watch plenty of videos on how to trade, experiment with different indicators, have the latest software, read self-improvement books, etc and YET, sadly , their results speak otherwise. This can be really frustrating and doing more of the same thing and expecting a different result is INSANITY.
Then how , you asked ? What has to change ?
Not the external side of things that you can get hold of. By that, I mean the materials, the notes, videos and even the courses those gurus promised to help you rake in 5000 to 10000 profits !
"All that you behold, though it appears without it is within, of which this world of mortality is but a shadow." William Blake
Digest this quote and compare it with what the Bible says here
Here, the 2 of you does not refer to 2 persons like you and your siblings, spouse or friend. But rather, it is referring to your conscious and subconscious mind. Often, we have one thought , example to be rich or successful in trading but our habitual mind (subconscious mind) opposed to the idea.
Test it upon yourself. See if you have to force yourself to wake up early or stay up late to check the market. On weekends, when others are out relaxing and having a good time, are you reluctantly cooping up in the Library or home to plot the charts? After weeks and months even years of trading, are you getting the results you want ? If not, do you know the cause of it ?
Those who want to make your money would have you believe them it is your system, your lack of trading signals, your lack of mentor/coach, your lack of this or that. And if you believe them just like many did, then you would part your money to them. Thanks to you and many like you , they become more successful and richer.
And you? Maybe in the short term, you succeeded but it goes back to square one shortly. After suffering months of depression and frustration, you go in search for solution, always focusing on the external (coach, system, signals, books, etc)
"Nature is an endless combination and repetition of a very few laws. She hums the old well-known air through innumerable variations". Ralph Waldo Emerson
The repetitive acts that you do, the efforts that you put in (conscious part) have to be mixed with an important ingredient - beliefs. As you study the charts, attend the courses, read a book , watch a video, whatever, you got to link it to a bigger picture of it making you richer, successful.
"Anything that you may hold firmly in your imagination can be yours" William James
As you are working hard on the external, do not neglect the internal aspect as well. Imagine how your life would be different when you achieved a certain outcome. For example, turning your monthly income into weekly and then eventually into daily. Increase the amount slowly, as you see the real profits grow, your level of confidence grew along with it. And your conviction deepens.
Over time, it becomes a habit through your repetitive acts daily that you knew what to do when you wake up. You could tell from the chart in a short amount of time whether to buy or sell. You begin to realise what the authors that you follow are not much different from you. You too can be your own author of life.
The car does not move from point A to B on its own. It depends on the engine that is invisible. It is the same as the subconscious mind. This part of the mind must be changed so that it is aligned with the conscious mind.
Then, you can see the words of God in Matthew 18.19 comes to live in your life. That is when words become flesh and dwells within us. John 1.14.
I hope you would take time to read this passage slowly, digest it over and connect with your heart, mind and soul. Are you depending too much on the external help and neglect that you already possess the supreme power to change your own fate?
You want to be rich, successful if used as a positive affirmation is useful ONLY if you believe in it. You will believe in it if you think you deserved to be rich. Your past like your parents, teachers, friends may say otherwise that shapes your beliefs about yourself. Who are you to be successful ? For years, the ones that you loved dearly had made the cardinal sins of destroying your self esteem by repeating the words to you when you were born.

Remember, we are good for something as God created each and everyone of us in his image. Some of us took a while longer to find ourselves, some are still in the journey and others are still searching..........
If you are serious about trading (investment) to make good money (be it for income, retirement, etc), then tune up your internal power, the latent power that when unleashed will transform you to a new level.
