Here are 31 things I wish more people knew from my own journey. Wins, losses, and a lot of figuring sh*t out the hard way.
🎉 Yes, I’m turning 31 today.
And if there’s one thing I’ve learned… it’s that trading teaches you more about life than just money.
1. Ask questions, don't tell stories. Your goal in life is to improve and grow, you ain't doing that by telling people how your day went.
2. You won’t get rich by trading; that's monetary, you will only be rich if you find a purpose in life.
3. Consistency > intensity. In trading. In relationships. In health.
4. Don't try to understand woman, just love them and make them feel safe
5. The faster you cut losses (in trades + life), the better.
6. If you don’t journal your trades, you’re gambling.
7. Good traders don’t chase setups. They wait for the market to come to them.
8. Self-discipline isn’t about doing more. It’s about knowing when to stop.
9. Most of your bad trades come from avoiding boredom.
10. Risk management is a love language. It shows how much you care about your future self 😊
11. Prioritise family over assets. Trust me on this.
12. Smile, be happy.
13. If it drains your peace, it’s too expensive.
14. It’s okay to rest without earning it. You’re not a machine.
15. Self-confidence is built by doing the things you said you would do.
16. Walking alone will teach you who you really are.
17. No one is thinking about you as much as you think. Live freely.
18. You don’t need 100 friends. You need 3 that actually give a s**t.
19. Saying “no” will change your life faster than saying “yes.”
20. Take care of your body. You actually have to live in it forever.
21. You are not your income. Or your followers. Or your worst day.
22. You don’t owe anyone access to you just because you used to be close.
23. Real love is boring. At least I think so, he he.
24. Journaling will fix problems you didn’t know you had.
25. If you don’t learn to be happy with a little, you won’t be with a lot.
26. The people you admire had to fight through s**t you never saw.
27. Your mindset is your operating system. Upgrade it often.
28. Momentum > motivation. Show up even when it’s not exciting.
29. Most people don’t want to improve. They just want the result.
30. Do what you are good at, not what you want, what others need, what you are actually good at. I teach.
31. Don't chase happiness in life; it has ups and downs. Chase peace.
Thanks for being here for another lap around the sun
