The Lightbulb
This is very interesting...
What you are saying is that ordinary people who come unprepared for all this with a heavy dose of EGO....get affronted when the outcomes they expect are not the ones they get, and that is where all the trouble starts. It would be better for them to realistically and deeply inwardly reflect, and if appropriate, to stay away from all of this altogether.
When you quote "Experience what you intellectually know a lot sooner", that you do not quite understand because you are not sure of it's validity, this is because in order to arrive at understanding his statement deeply, you yourself have to have a meaningful realisation about his statement.
Obviously, you have not had this meaningful realisation.
This is because you are not yet ready for the lightbulb
to go flash in your head yet.
When you are ready, the lightbulb will flash of it's own accord at a place and time of its choice, and not necessarily yours.
But you have to work on yourself first before this can happen.
The
is waiting, it is up to all of us to make the effort.
The more effort you make the greater the likelyhood of the
flashing sooner.
As you happen to mention my namesake...he formulated E = MC Squared.
In striving for structured progress in this profession, which only you can do, and not anyone else for you, this formula of his has a totally different meaning to it.
I agree with you that people (ordinary people unprepared for all this) are insecure about trading, don't like risk, like to be organised, etc.,henry766 said:Not sure about the last part , "experience what you intellectually know a lot sooner"?, but the point is illustrated by yourself , your not sure it will help or not?My own view is that people are insecure about trading , don't like the risk , like to be organised , money management etc as if those things will make you succeed , they won't , at the end of your trading career the only the that counts is that you've made profits , if your system doesn't work , IT DOESN'T WORK, and you will not succeed however much money management , however organised you are , how much you talk about it etc . if you have all these things , you will still lose because your system isn't profitable , it's like playing roullette , in the end the bank wins , despite the bank having no control over risk management , no control as to when the client puts his money on which number etc , so has no organised way of trading at all , it takes what comes , but in the end it always wins , sooner or later. And finding these profitable systems doesn't require organisation either , but imagination , didn't Einstien come up with his theory of relativity while out for a walk, not a file or plan in site!!
