It’s Time To Jump Into The Trading Pool

 

When I started my trading career, back in late 2015, it was an entire new world for me (if you haven’t started reading my blog posts yet, I’d suggest you to read my first ones about my trading journey and the most difficult decision). In fact, I always had a passion of managing money, trading and investing. I still remember with excitement the day when my dad opened my first trading account. I was 15. He didn’t know anything about this world but decided to do not switch off my curiosity and enthusiasm because of that. Great lesson!

Now that I am past more than double that age, almost everything has changed since then. Everything but the enthusiasm that doing this job still fills me with. When I decided to quit my job to fulfil this lifetime passion, this one factor gave a crucial contribution to leave that current condition and start a brand-new career as a trader.

As you may already know, everything started for me when I decided to make the move and join the WarriorPro program. It sounds funny but I am actually thankful that I’ve invested that money at that point in time. You know why? Simple, if these precious courses were free, I wouldn’t have felt that sense of commitment that determines my chances of actual success. So, even today, I’m blessing every single dime I spent into those precious material.

From that point on, it was time to jump into the trading pool. In fact, time for hesitating was past and I needed to get the best out of me. More importantly, I wanted the best possible version of myself to arise and to guide me to the greatest achievements.

 

Freestyle or backstroke doesn’t really matter

Borrowing a parallel that came out from the Inner Circle chat-room the other day, you can’t really expect to become great swimmers by just reading books about how to swim or stories about the greatest swimmers on earth. At some point, you need to dive into the trading pool and start “swimming” on your own.

Only by doing this, you’ll find out that there is not just one strategy that works for everybody. And that if that’s freestyle or backstroke you’re really good at, this doesn’t really matter. What’s important is just discovering yourself better in a manner that you can go triple down with the strategy that works best for you.

Beware that understanding this will take time and it will require a continuous process of refinement. But in my view, it’s the fundamental milestone of a trader’s career. So, if you aren’t sure yet about where you do stand in the trading landscape, do not worry. Even the most successful swimmer wasn’t born knowing how to float on water. Invest yourself into this journey entirely and you’ll sort this out.

See you in chat-room.
