Happy New You 2011. And thank you 2010 and the people those who I’ve met, challenged & influenced me . Thank you.
Often I come across traders who go thru emotional roller coaster ride. Even though, most of them read some good books or listen to good audios or attend seminars, but they never managed to have a stable mind set. Because they never changed their opinion about themselves deep down inside. This is something like, wearing 'body deodorant spray' without taking bath regularly. Guess what happens? Try yourself for one week. I hope you’re getting the point.
If this is the case for people with habits of books/audios/seminars, what about people without these habits. I mean without reading good books, listening to good audios, or attending good seminars/workshop, in most case… that is even worse.
However, what you do after reading books or listening to motivational audios, you go & brag those sentence or punch line to your friends to impress them and you try to change them. You assumed yourself that this motivational stuff is for them or for the environment around you, incha? Imagine all of your friends read the same books you read, listened to same audios you listened and attended same seminar/workshop you attended. Guess what happens? All of you try to change each others, lots of advices. Lots of mind gaming and body language. Oops!! The noise is Havoc!
All these books will definitely helps if you clean yourself (mind) deep down inside first. Just be silent for 10/15 minutes in a day, I mean meditate. Do any type of meditations, not concentration. You don’t have to focus or concentrate on anything. Just relax and just witness the moment. If you want to follow your thoughts just go ahead and enjoy the journey with your thoughts. Just look around. Astonish at the details around your imagination. You will develop keen eye for simplicity. Suddenly everything around you is beautiful. Meditation makes you to self-realise. or you can try guided meditation with a therapist. Perhaps, you will also encounter some bad thoughts, there is a reason for everything, your therapist will guide you thru your meditation process.
This ‘Guided Meditation Therapy’ for traders leads them to some of the core issue in their life which is surfacing now and then in trading career. Basically, treating them in a surface level is again the same ‘body spray approach’. Every thoughts forms some habits and attitude in you and make a change of course. This new habit of thinking becomes your pattern. And your mind is comfortable in repeating this pattern. You will learn everything in silence, you will connected to higher source in this lonely space. Remember, we are all here as an ‘one being’ for different ‘human experience’.
Meditate, just be in deep down inside you, and you will learn to unblock those unnecessary thoughts. It is a journey inside you. Enjoy
Once again, Happy New You 2011. Celebrate everyday, everyone, and every moment. Keep Chargin’
Be Awesome!
