Self Awareness is Very Important

Recommended Posts

Trading the forex market i have found to be a great analogy of life. We trade as we live , with our strengths and weaknesses. Our feeling about ourselves, our cultural views on money and abundance and specially our perception of wealth creep into every aspect of our trading. This is the reason I place such a heavy emphasis on personal self-mastery. Becoming aware of whom we are as an individual, our strengths and weaknesses, and our perspective on life will determine how well we can deploy the correct principals of strategy and risk management and remove the mask of mental poverty in our trading.

Self mastery is taught within the context of Forex trading, but in reality it is all about identifying who we are as a person. What drives us and what holds us back. Each aspect can help or hinder us from becoming successful traders. Identifying our personal traits is so critical to our trading.

Mastery of yourself not only will lead to success in the Forex market , but also success in whatever venture one decides to pursue. Forex Journey is my journey and from personal experience I have found that to experience success trading this market you will come to know yourself. The 90% that do not succeed fail because they did not acknowledge who they are as a person, which determines who they are as a trader.

Trading Currency is hard, but not because of complex strategies or risk management models. Forex is hard because the market is comprised of living, breathing emotional beings that can think and act both independently and as a group. It is the human element that makes the market what it is. Know the psychology of the market through fundamentals is mandatory, but what most people ignore is that they themselves are the other half of equation.

It all starts with becoming aware of who you are as a person to fully understand the strength and weakness you will bring to the table as a trader. Becoming aware will lead to an understanding which in turn will lead to overcoming.

Success in the Forex market cannot be borrowed or outsourced. It must be earned piece by piece and the first piece is stats with you.

 

Thanks for your precious time. Happy Trading..:cool:
