2012 New Year's Resolutions

Firstly, Happy New Year!! I hope everyone had a wonderful and refreshing break. If not, think carefully before jumping back into the market!

So what will be your resolutions for 2012? How do you expect to remain strong throughout the year and do you have any special tactics for doing so? Have you had any experience either in doing or not doing any of the things anyone else has listed as a resolution?

Imho, if we can pull together at TL and support each other, we can stick to our new ideals and be all the stronger for it!

I RESOLVE TO DO MORE RESEARCH

My resolution is to do more research into trading observations. Last year, I didn't necessarily manage my time in such a way that allowed me to do this well. I have a long list piled up which needs to be looked at and I need to set a period to do it at the very least, once per week. I may start off by doing this either for two 1 hour periods a week or one 2 hour period and see how I get through it.

Haha! But will that help your trading dude? Quite possibly if it means you get it in the neck less frequently and as a result are less stressed!

Re: 2012 New Year's Resolutions

more of a set routine to have more focus "when" required

(this helps with toilet issues as well)

Lol. The routine idea is an interesting point though. I definitely find it difficult at times to stick to a routine as different things are always coming up which need attention. I am certainly better at it these days though. I think one idea that helps is setting aside time for doing non- daily stuff. That way, even if you have to mix the order up you still can get everything done.

You need to train her to put it back up when she is done.
