When in doubt ask
Anybody can have a bad day and we tend to overexaggerate our feelings when we beat ourselves down.
My personal strategy is getting in closer proximity to those who mastered the struggles I am dealing with.
Warren Buffett is 93 years old, he knows a thing or two and he can back up that his knowledge is principle based by the net worth it created him
he was asked what the two most efficient ways were to beat inflation/recession and alike
he answered
invest in yourself
the better your skills the higher the likelihood to be employed and you will always get paid something in any environment if ya know more than others
secondly
create a business with little overhead
if you have a lot of overhead you get killed in inflationary times since you have a lot of cost but if you have a business that has little overhead you will always make some good money
So on a day when you are doubting yourself know that you are doing something great
You are investing in yourself here at PPT
you are pushing and stretching and taking the uncomfortable route, but anything of value added between your ears is currency for an unknown future
and secondly i do not know any other business than trading that has this little overhead
and not to be forgotten, financial markets are the last business to close and the first business to open in extremely difficult times
so yes this is hard and yes there are tremendous hardships but the question is -is it worth it
and in my humble opinion it is
but I didn't mean to make a point for trading or specifically PPT but rather wanted to share the wisdom of a man who has been on this planet for a long time and killed it and find his advice:
invest in yourself
create a low overhead business
very valuable
