There's one thing I have to tell you . The winner doesn't really do any thinking . Are you surprised? In reality, it all just about bores home .
My friend, I'm telling you of the moment his mind has decided to strike in the market . For at least a moment, his mind stops thinking. His mind relaxes, because he knows his game plan and the thinking is done .
Perhaps his mind will rest for a week , while within the market his execution is going on . He decides that if he's not in profits by one week , then he gets out, or he has some other type of rule . His mind goes right to the task , maybe after the week has past - or when his mental alarm system is permeated by a signal that there is a problem with prices , with the reaction to the news by the market - the market isn't performing the way it should. His mind adapts fast.
He may make the choice to get out of the market until he can understand what happened with his thinking process . His mind is sharp enough to know what is to be anticipated from his day trading online and a deviation from this is analyzed thoroughly. The "noise" of the market is taken into account . He digests news at an almost subliminal level . The affect on the market is how he applies the consumption of news. His mind is continuously self-perceiving, making itself thoroughly aware and introspective , researching thoroughly its own emotions and attitudes , determining the influence of the market on him by probing his inner feelings .
His mind has been disciplined to avoid thinking in terms of the quick killing and knows that commodities will always be there tomorrow and that every day, week, mother, or at least a few times a year, there is a train leaving .
He rarely places the blame of his mistakes on others. He keeps it fair when playing with others. His mind is reclusive, not letting others influence it unless it's by mutual enlightenment , as it is still all encompassing and expansive - questioning, analyzing, and appreciating. Above all, enjoying what it is doing . Fear, green, and emotions do not grapple it. All destructive elements are avoided. It longs for healthy nourishment. It rejects any stimulation that is artificial and only will drink at the trough of knowledge. Fancy words! - But it is true!
Above all, it has a sense of humor . It is even able to quietly laugh, although with sympathy for the loser . The loser is respected . It respects what it has already been thru . The mind actually respects everything. It allows only the human emotions of sympathy, compassion, and sometimes pleasure . It may say to its host " I know you love Beluga caviar since you made $50K in the market go enjoy some of it , indulge yourself with it . Eat it up - it's great for you ".
The mind simply coasts, new information gets it off , such as with a day trading online, but screens it as thoroughly as a bean picker at the supermarket .
It finds the good elements in the book, and refuses to memorize anything about losing . It gets involved with good things instead in a day trading online and carefully selects what it accepts, remembering to "Keep it Simple," the golden rule . It can think when required and is patient . It can sit and wait because of its good discipline.
Maybe laziness occurs. Perhaps just sitting and waiting is what it wants. There's already so much expected of it . A well honed mind is in such good shape that like a jogger who easily does 10 miles , - it's child's play to run fast enough to catch the bus . The mind can take it easy and be a bit lazy because it is trained and well honed. Sprinting to the bus isn't something to worry about - and it's so well tuned that it can be lazy and wait for those little demands that the market may have . It is lazy yet tuned and handles it all like a pro - life is a joy and trading in the market is unadulterated pure joy - heaven on earth, and the radiance of the mind shines out like beautiful diamonds falling on those all around, including the host.
