Over the years, I have developed a good habit and achieved a double harvest in life investment, which has led me to the road of counterattack.
It coincided with the weekend, night fell, the moonlight was charming, extraordinarily refreshing, I sat on the edge of the balcony, on the table in front of me was freshly grilled grilled fish, the aroma was tangy, I held the red wine in the glass, took a sip, the wine slowly down my throat, lingering, thoughts came up at once.
Today is another day worth celebrating, because there is nothing to do in the afternoon, I went fishing, like me like a half-hanger, fishing that is purely dependent on the sky to eat, but I didn't expect to be lucky, half an hour to catch a big fish, the moment I caught it, the mood is surprised and excited, just like I do foreign exchange trading to catch the mood of the black swan market.
As long as you do something different in life, you will also get unexpected surprises, and if there are surprises, then you should celebrate, people, the picture is happy, so I went back home, found an electric grill that had not been used for a long time, and I was going to eat grilled fish for supper tonight.
I have a hobby, that is, I like to go out and about, set small goals on a whim, and celebrate myself and enjoy it whenever I have some gains.
This good habit allowed me to achieve a counterattack in investment transactions back then.
Ten years ago was a turning point in my financial investments. In 2013, I have been doing foreign exchange for three years, and I have been losing a lot, before learning the arts, I had a lot of mistakes about the days of trading, and also developed some bad trading habits. The master told me that cognitive errors are easy to correct, with your understanding, I will tell you the correct way to trade, you can easily understand, but the bad trading habits that you have formed for a long time are not so easy to correct.
Many trader friends often report to me that their execution is not good, and their mentality is not good, which is actually caused by bad habits in trading, as long as they cannot be corrected, it is difficult to solve the execution.
I also found the problem at the beginning, to solve it, but the effect is very poor, it is always difficult to change, I remember that my biggest problem at that time was the competition, the operation always could not hold the profit list, like heavy positions and no stop loss, loss is also frequent short-term operations.
I always want to get rid of these bad habits, maybe it's because my obsession is too strong, or maybe it's because of my personality, but I can't get rid of them, which makes me very distressed.
Seeing that I was distressed, my teacher told me that if you want to get rid of these bad habits, you have to let go of your obsessions and establish new goals.
As if I saw a straw, I said, Master, tell me, what should I do.
He said that you were too obsessed before, thinking about how to win money, and always expecting the market to go in the direction of your own billing, which is against the objective law, so you are controlled by human nature.
Next, the teacher said a lifelong benefit:
The next thing you have to do is change your goals, let go of the expectation of making money, and the new goal is to break your habits and celebrate every day without making mistakes.
I was skeptical, but there was no other way around, so I decided to give it a try.
At first, I was determined to get rid of the bad habit of frequent trading, as long as I executed exactly according to the plan every day, did not operate additional orders, and completed the task at the end of the day, I rewarded myself with a bottle of beer and two duck legs, and if I couldn't help but operate the extra orders, I would eat instant noodles for a week.
From that day on, I felt like I was doing things with the right goals in mind, and I was very motivated, and at night before I went to bed, I was able to basically drink beer and drink chicken legs, and I had a great sense of accomplishment to celebrate the success of the day.
Later, I used this way to set goals to complete tasks and then reward and celebrate, and I got rid of one bad habit after another, and I didn't say it, but I felt a sense of accomplishment.
Later, I applied this method to my life, and found that I loved life more and more.
If you want to live freely and happily in life, you must live your days one celebration after another.
You see I caught a big fish today, just open a wine to celebrate, yesterday I met an old friend in Guiyang who I haven't seen for three years, and I went down to the restaurant to drink two glasses to celebrate, a few days ago I received a billiard table that I bought in my heart, and I was looking for a few friends to celebrate.
I still remember the day I took the driver's license test, during the test, I would wave my fist to celebrate every time I passed the level, and finally successfully passed the level, and went home to have two drinks with friends to celebrate.
In fact, this is a positive and optimistic good habit of life, even if sometimes in adversity, you can also use this way to get yourself out, there is a student in my college, before joining in the foreign exchange trading improper operation of more than one million debts, very depressed, after finding me to solve the puzzle, I told him this method, he went back to set a small goal, and then every time a small goal, it was celebrated, and then miraculously paid off the debt, you see, so before and after the comparison, the mentality is not different, life to find motivation, the mentality is happy, the transaction is also smooth。
Life is only 30,000 days, celebrating one day is a day, whether it is life or investment trading, this is how to live by one's own definition, and then help him move forward step by step.
