    There is some truth that behind a successul man is a successful woman.

    There's a reason why the wives of CEO's and other successful professionals are professionals themselves.

    Quite possibly the most simplest. impactful philisophical quote in the history of ET.

    nothing in life is easy, unless you're easy. =Life is what we make it.

    We decide our stressors and victories. EX: you are low on gas and pissed about pulling over on a hot day to pump gas, while pulling over you get a call from a freinds wife. Your buddy just had a heart attack at 40, you are all fucked up over that news. While pumping gas, a guy puts a .357 revolver in your face demanding your wallet and watch.


    What has just happened in 15minutes. Priorities and stressers changed. Changed according to our definition. One priority was changed for another priority and for another.

    Did the meaning and importance of any of the prior issues change??, (pumping gas, buddys heart attack, gun in your face)

    NO they didnt!!, our value we gave to them adjusted, that is all !! So now, you got a pop-gun in your face, looking at 6 cylinders of hollow point slugs from a S&W, .357, how significant is the idea of you having to pullover to get gas, how fucking silly is that idea now, that just minutes ago made you upset......

    See, so, next time you are bothered by something mundane, (which is probably often), just think about something real bad and how you arent experiencing that. Your life will be easy, you choose to make it easy.


    Your welcome, saved you trips to the shrink and money spent.

    my little contribution to causation and study of value settings.

    Not exactly, the author of the blog article is an insecure braggart.

    As a person who is "successful" he could bestow some useful advice on us mortals. Instead all we read is bragging about all the difficult-to-impossible-to-achieve things men tend to think women like about men: being tall (can you grow overnight - even with surgery), not having to work to earn some income (usually implies parents pay the expenses), talking loudly even when everyone around hates you (do I need to say more?), "nice" clothes (read plagued with "expensive" trademarks stuck in the most visible places).

    Also OP must be confusing the definition of success of a typical EliteTrader reader (consistently profitable with some savings and confidence in this position) with success with slutty women (pretty boy that would get in bed with everything that moves as long as it looks like a woman after a few drinks, stupid enough not to check if the "woman" has balls).

    Many of the richest men in the world are single, an unproportionately high number. Single men take risks and get the rewards, attached men have lower testosterone and are not focused on achieving.
    You're trying to justify your marriage/girl friend, nothing wrong with that.

    Many say it actually ends when you get married.
