Know Your Limits

Most people work better when they have a set goal in their mind, I know that I most certainly do. This goal does not have to be set in stone but something to work towards and aspire to that can be reconsidered as you approach it. When it comes to trading I believe that one of the hardest things to do is to keep your emotions in check. At the end of the day we have to rely on money to keep our heads above the water and so when losing or winning sums of money it is hard to not become attached or emotionally involved.

Trading in Pairs

Sometimes it’s really hard to get motivated. I think that the majority of us suffer from this lack of motivation from time to time. We all have things that we want to accomplish and we make excuses – there are not enough hours in the day, I was going to do it but then XYZ came up. The truth is if we want to do something we should push and motivate ourselves to do it. Believe me, I understand that it is easier said than done. One of the most underrated and underused ways to get motivated and keep motivation going strong is by taking part in an activity with someone else. You push each other...

The Truth About Financial Freedom

Financial freedom, or financial independence, is generally defined as a person having enough funds to be able to live their life the way they desire without being burdened by financial worry. In this day and age, I believe that financial freedom is more of a mindset – it is about more than having disposable money and it is about more than being rich.
