And actually trading is much much much better than the lottery, and even poker : the trader has more "effects", "control" on the outcome. I am really glad I went the trader's route as a strategy to reach my goal, than the poker player route.
The exercise I have to do is design some new lifestyle - taking into account the effects on trader's psychology. 1) backpacker lifestyle ( we are talking of real change here) <iframe width="640" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/-DnjmdEIXKs?feature=player_detailpage" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Drawbacks : - can't see one as yet Advantages : can pack and move within the minute easy to find a place near a good computer gaming shop ( they have the best IT system for trading really ). 2) camping lifestyle <iframe width="640" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/NC_8almFLhg?feature=player_detailpage" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Still working on the drawbacks : - need to move away from cold countries during winter - need to carry my own trading equipments to create the right trading "atmosphere". 3) chateau style lifestyle <iframe width="640" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/7Fy1ylARvf4?feature=player_detailpage" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Possible drawbacks : - complacency due to extreme indulgence - possible over-pressures to perform in trading I am quiet amazed that coaches look to every aspects. Funnily enough, he recons that a real change of lifestyle will make it easier for me psychologically to do everything I want to do ( increase "abundance" distribution, follow YOUR example into more schools - goal is to open my first one this year, foundation, ....). I feel really fired up Time to stop living small. Great to have this week to read The book AND work on lifestyle choice.
I was going to forget : the Pals and others who have been paying "Nick". Just know that the "Nick" I recommended never had any sessions with you. We now understand that he had been substituted by another "psy". No wonder many have struggled so much. Just for your information the real Nick, is a DR - PHD holder in clinical psychiatry with 20 years clinical experiences. Obviously that does not compare with a psychology graduate only - even if the psychology graduate makes a huge effort to read and understand DR Nick A. way of working. So basically, you have paid for having a substitute professional. I don't know what to say , except that you have been in a certain way robbed of the chance of having a real and very well qualified professional to really help you. So all of you who have been telling your life - any well qualified psy would strictly respect professional confidentiality - time to may be really take sessions with the real DR Nick A. In case, some people have doubts, let me know if you want me to list here everybody's problems ( parents preferring one sister over the other, growing up extremely poor, being rejected in 3 situations where one really loved the different women, failed kidnapping attempts, ... ) It is best you know where all the "leaks" about your life are coming from. And yes, the "canadian" guy's desperate to get married, the photographer's one who creates photography exhibition and organise adventures and who is very critical but "I could go now with him after my 2 years of travelling" ( dixit "female") , the small successful seasonal restaurant cook, I have a baby ( hey : do I Care that this baby was not conceived with BOTH parents deciding beforehand to have a baby and all being well ? ) etc : please find out WHO is really enjoying gossiping about your life out there. To the point of HIRING poor german girl to be their talking mouth. The poor girl started to feel uneasy when asked to make racist questions. And of course : whoever is into indians - please keep it to yourself. I would NEVER compare Nelson Mandela to ghandi ( âOnly a degree removed from the animal.â about his fellow South African inmates). Time for your lot to deal with the motherS who are crying their sons - aka your "collaterals". I am glad I have been informed about the "blood on your hands" and to keep away from your lot not to tint my destiny. Compared to your carelessness, any mafia would look like angels. Just know that Karma will come to you, assholes. <iframe width="640" height="390" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/5LttBKtzSgA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Do you care about THESE motherS ? SO : FUCK OFF.
Yep I can add other information about the "talking mouth" sent in my traveller place. Please pick the references , as we know how the term "she" is used. Yep, they left within one hour of my posting on ET. So obviously, the right person is getting the message, and is realizing it is time to send people to do their www.dhamma.org ( one, two, three , ... times). as many times needed. So the german girl, and her friend - Rachel - who arrived one day after , both left together in a hurry apparently. I did not know they were related as they arrived there on different days. Rachel : from New-York apparently, finished her masters in social work ( but could not say much about social work), spent 2 months in Cambodia dating a Nigerian footballer there. Travelled also to Costa Rica and Nicaragua. But stayed just few days in Nicaragua. The german one : spent 2 months in Bali, and also recently came from Australia, near Queensland, where she was "apparently" into alternative lifestyle, among aborigenes, and was very keen on Nelson Mandela and ghandi. She apparently went out with a sales director responsible for Australia branch of a multinational. She met him while she was working in a bar just near where the he worked. She also went travelling in Hawai : she did all the islands, with an old guy - on a plane, on a catamaran, etc... he paid for all, but he invited her and she paid a quarter. Then she talked about the cook who had a very small but successful restaurant that was seasonal. Apparently she(?) had to go back to Frankfurt, to live with one of her brothers. One was working as a social worker, and the other was a very successful manager of a big company. I have already mentionned the photographer. "She" had interest in environmental aspects, and to do camping. Because after doing an apprenticeship in banking, she went to work in sales for a multinational clothing company. She did not like the exploitation of workers there. But she did not want any action plans. And she did not want to work, but knew she had to. And she wondered how easy it would be to take distance learning university courses in english. She had only 4 months left of travelling. She also did some 2 months of teaching children in a charity. She enticed me to have a look at her book "the four purposes of life". by dan Millman. and really liked the story about " a mother who was happy as she was and had been doing different things , but never succeeded really at anything". The book was offered to her by a sales manager who sells farming machinery/equipment. The sales manager life was 9 hours of driving everyday one way, 9 hours the other way. Very "programmed" life from her opinion. The last bits of information was that she was interested in "Batu cave", and she loved Aladin. I can't remember just now other references. Obviously, as we know, she had done so much, that it could be referencing at least 5-6 people's lives. I am not sure about putting in here the details about the Dr Nick A. "substitute" here. I will think about it first. Obviously, as they confided all their lives to the substitute psy, no wonder they did not manage to really sort their problems. Dr Nick A. , with 20 years clinical experience after a Post-Doc would have circled the real problems over the last 2 years and really helped them. It really looks like they get robbed of at least 2 years of their lives. My advice to them : www.dhamma.org and really avoid "substitutes psy". There is a reason they have to fake other psy. Got to go now.
Great to be back to doing my reading . A good kind of break. It also reinforced the idea that not trading is very much fine. <iframe width="640" height="390" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/NXQucFnS58U" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Obviously, I am really looking forward to test in next few weeks how a change of lifestyle influences trading. Really the only thing for me is that I don't become complacent and lazy.
About the last elections results? I guess the biggest winner is 25 millions registered voters "who stayed home", knowing fully well the consequences of "staying home". I guess there were some hints of some politicians deep impopularity. Effectively, if politicians are incapable of doing a good job (thriving economy, low corruption, etc...), a country worldwide known to show the example ( ) is very unlikely to be "intimidated". <iframe width="640" height="390" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/GB2FKMrNKsU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> ( copiously booohed politician during national celebrations inspite of a very heavy police operation days before and during the event. )
Now, I am obviously starting to get my list of big former national companies that are being "sold", as I want to bet their being "privatized" down the road : long term trade, entry over 3 years. . The good thing about trading is one can spot good trading opportunities from geopolitics.
heu it is true that if one does not have "symbolic" references, it is difficult to understand : red hats are references to red hats during the 1789 revolution. anyway, people are very unhappy.
