Losing money. losing lots of money is a real pain. How big? big enough to be a problem. <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Gvl0_wxhzuw?feature=player_detailpage" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
There must be something about studying the beliefs regarding money : just walking during a break, found 10$ equivelent in the street. Funnily, I am very grateful and happy about free money. And it is a bit like trading - when one finds some good money - even free money when the effort is not proportional to the work- one should just be happy about it.
So this experience of finding free money is really improving the way I look to trading profits. The profits are not about just proving one can make money, but also about taking them and valueing this money even when it is free money. I do not like drawdowns anymore. I do not like giving back money anymore either.
My host is definitively really keen on this poker plan. As we are now just getting some promo material made, she can see things moving in a much quicker way than she could imagine, and she is really getting excited by the actions. . If all goes well, we should be able to send her and some people to Las vegas and get her even more excited! lol!
causes of this belief - people say "money does not grow on trees" - people say " we work hard to put food on the table" - people say "just wait till you have to work a job' - seeing other people struggle about money and in life - selling your time for money, and working x hours/week , and you hate it
now how does this belief "acquiring money is hard" and associated beliefs stand when : - one is having fun doing what one loves AND one is getting paid for it? - one finds money in the street? so far 200$; But what about if it comes to 200$ every 3 days for instance?
seriously that makes me laugh, finding 200$-equivalent every 3 days just when walking in the streets! LOL! Now I am starting to understand this statement " the illegals think that one can just find money in the street"! Now, I am starting to see how the belief got generated! lol. I am myself now seriously thinking of taking 0.1% of trading profits and putting them in the street as well, with a note attached "do good, be good and attract more good things in your life" .
Or some notes like : - " Do a good action everyday for one d-e-s-e-r-v-i-n-g person " (1000$-equivalent note) - "Stop hating and enjoy the money" ( 10$ equivalent note) - "It is easy to make money in an honest way" (2000$ -equivalent note) - "Help others if you want to help yourself" ( 3000$ note) I think set of notes of 100$ - equivalent would have real impact. that would be really fun. Just next to a bad school, 100$ bill with a note : - "learn to think well " -" no need to skeep school" lol - "be helpful" - "be nice to your teachers" I am going to try this actually.
