My life's work is to inspire traders to do their best, to seek the easier way to do things, and to explain things in the simplest way possible.
My Philosophy of Life:
I seek after peace of mind and true happiness.
My highest goal is to maintain peace of mind.
I do this by avoiding things I will regret; or by trying my best to not regret my mistakes.
I believe in:
- Forgiveness.
- Avoiding nostalgia as much as possible. (Nostalgia is the unproductive obsession with "how great stuff was in the past."
- Being happy for people and being good to them. I believe kindness is its own reward.
- Living as much as possible in a state of observation - and not becoming attached to outcomes.
- Not setting goals; instead, I just decide what is important and do it, and the results take care of themselves.
- Discipline, which I define as "doing the right thing at the right time." All freedom is the result of discipline, which seems paradoxical at first.
- Waking up early.
