00:00:30,090 --> 00:00:45,660 ICT: Good morning. Hope you're all doing well. So we're back at it again with a nother ICT, Twitter space shotgun Saturday. And I want to talk a little bit
00:00:45,660 --> 00:00:58,710 about what we generally focus on here all the time is the psychology. Or many times the mental barriers or obstacles that you may encounter, or may have
00:00:58,710 --> 00:01:13,320 encountered, but don't really understand how to overcome them. Today's topic is laying up treasures, and keeping the wolves away. When you got introduced to
00:01:13,320 --> 00:01:28,110 this entire scheme, making money clicking candlestick charts and indicators flashing on the screen, no matter who it was, they got you interested. That
00:01:28,110 --> 00:01:39,810 moment where you fell in love with the idea or the opportunity of potentially making money, but not going to work for it seems very enticing, didn't seem
00:01:39,810 --> 00:02:02,880 very, very enticing. And you may have rushed in your pursuit and doing so. And you may have suffered from enticement from influencers, maybe even me. Now, I've
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:16,560 done a great deal, to try to keep you focused on the things that matter most. But you don't have to have all the materialistic things that come with here that
00:02:16,590 --> 00:02:32,340 that's my wife running. She has promised me an uninterrupted hour, she just ran back into the house, forgot her keys. He's one of those moments where I really,
00:02:32,340 --> 00:02:39,240 really, really wish it was a recorded thing because it irks me that it's in there. And that little click, click click is barely running around to try to see
10 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:52,380 where he's at. But when we get in volved, with this industry, and when I want to say it like this, when I got into it, I looked at it as a way of retiring early,
11 00:02:52,860 --> 00:03:04,170 not getting rich, I didn't have that desperation, I just wanted to have a better life. And I was willing to defer it to a later time in my life. And that flies
12 00:03:04,170 --> 00:03:16,440 in the face of what's bandied about today where it's like, hey, look, you know, overnight success is how it's supposed to be. And I'm just very gingerly gonna
13 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:30,990 remind you that that's really not practical. It's really kind of happen for some absolutely. But for the majority, it's not going to be true for most of us. So I
14 00:03:30,990 --> 00:03:45,480 believe I came into this with the right perspective, starting out. But as soon as you make a nice win, have a winning streak, and you have profits
15 00:03:45,510 --> 00:03:56,160 accumulating, that tends to change things, and what you may have started out with in their journey, and what were your pursuits where, and the why, as to
16 00:03:56,160 --> 00:04:07,920 what you're doing it for. And we're gonna talk about that. It'll change, it'll morph into things that you may not have, really were inspired by in the
17 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:18,540 beginning, it may even fly in the face of who you are as a person, or used to be. And even for folks that have not found profitability, and I've seen some of
18 00:04:18,540 --> 00:04:29,790 them online. I've seen some of them, trying to be mentors. I've seen some of them trying to be traders or live streamers, and some of them not all of them.
19 00:04:29,790 --> 00:04:46,980 Some of them aren't really successful. But they talk, they talk like they are or they soon will be. And there's nothing wrong with being positive. But there also
20 00:04:47,190 --> 00:05:00,660 is a limitation in terms of presenting it in a capacity that you are something that you aren't because what that will do is create this expected patien in
21 00:05:00,660 --> 00:05:12,660 yourself, that when you actually do try to trade and when you try to do things, and take on risk, which is the primary discussion point today, you'll be afraid,
22 00:05:13,650 --> 00:05:23,220 you'll be afraid to take the trades because you've talked a good game you've tucked outwardly in the presence of others. But when it comes time to push the
23 00:05:23,220 --> 00:05:34,530 button, when it comes time to manage that risk, to manage your emotions, to navigate the psychological storm, that real money, real trading on the hard,
24 00:05:34,890 --> 00:05:47,460 right edge of the chart brings with it. So it's the quiet ones. It's the quiet ones that do all their talking in their journals, where no one else has seen
25 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:58,770 that they truly themselves. They don't beat their chest. They don't brag, they don't do any of those types of things. They just quietly encourage themselves in
26 00:05:58,770 --> 00:06:14,790 the solitude of their journal, where it needs to stay. When we look at this industry, there's a verse there's treasure to be desired and oil indwelling of
27 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:28,860 the wise but a foolish man spends it up. What does that mean? Well, I'll apply it to trading. Okay, it can be used in a myriad of things. But I'm not going to
28 00:06:28,860 --> 00:06:41,490 apply that saying to what we do as traders, how we go into the the world of speculation for profit, and how we many times lose sight of what it is that
29 00:06:41,490 --> 00:06:58,560 we're trying to do. For me, it was trying to retire early, I was wanting to retire at 40. And things change over the course of my career and how I came up,
30 00:06:59,310 --> 00:07:10,410 just like it's going to change for you. But it's important for you to identify what is a low hanging fruit objective for you. Now, I'm not saying sell yourself
31 00:07:10,410 --> 00:07:23,430 short, in terms of your life, what would be viewed as successful or not successful, but unfortunately, social media Instagram, you know, YouTube, the
32 00:07:23,430 --> 00:07:33,840 influencers effect on individuals. And I would have been very easily wrapped up in all this stuff to me if I could go back in time. And think about how I felt
33 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:51,270 this insatiable need to feel like I was worth something. Beyond the normal, I wanted to be outside the range of like everybody else, not because I wanted to
34 00:07:51,270 --> 00:08:01,650 be better than everybody else. But because I wanted to feel significant because I didn't grow up with parents that had any love towards me. So I got my love and
35 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:13,920 nurturing from my grandparents. So I had a chip on my shoulder. So I was using the market as a way of proving myself worth to me and everyone else around me.
36 00:08:15,390 --> 00:08:30,150 That was the wrong approach to going into trading. I wanted to win back my ex wife, I wanted to do things, to have other people look at me and want to be me.
37 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:42,390 I wanted to be that person. And if we had social media back in my time, if it happened to be like it is today, where we have Instagram and Facebook and
38 00:08:42,390 --> 00:08:53,520 Twitter and all these things that are available to distract us and fill our minds with foolishness and self worship. An idol worship of other people. That's
39 00:08:53,520 --> 00:09:05,100 why I don't like it when you guys call me things like a king or a goat and stuff like I don't like that. But I would have been wrapped up in that stuff in 1992
40 00:09:05,100 --> 00:09:15,210 When I first started if it was available, and I would have fallen victim to it. And who knows what kind of egomaniac I really would have been. And I can see and
41 00:09:15,210 --> 00:09:22,920 I'm sorry if you hear some chirping in the background. That's Piper had to give her a bone because there's no way I'd be able to do this Twitter space. If I
42 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:35,160 stepped away too far, she's gonna start whining and crying. So let's get through it as best we can. Okay, but the idea of knowing why you're going into this,
43 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:48,240 what's the purpose? What's the reason why you're doing it? It's for the betterment of yourself. Yes. But there has to be something beyond that. Okay.
44 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:59,700 When you lay up treasure for yourself here in this world, you're thinking, well, I want to have a nice life. I want to live a nice, successful life where I can
45 00:09:59,700 --> 00:10:09,450 do what Ever I want to do whenever I want to do it. And I kind of promote that mindset, I want everyone to have that, yes. But there's got to be something more
46 00:10:09,450 --> 00:10:22,560 to it than that. And for me, when I started doing things for people outside of myself, and the things that brought a greater sense of respect for risk, the
47 00:10:22,560 --> 00:10:27,090 idea of taking on new risks
48 00:10:28,620 --> 00:10:39,150 was a little bit more challenging when I became a father, because prior to that, I was a cowboy. It was nothing for me to go in there and risk 50% of my account
49 00:10:39,540 --> 00:10:51,540 on trades that had no business being in when I didn't even know how to trade. But when I had my son, Cody, putting aside all the drama that came with how I
50 00:10:51,540 --> 00:11:01,140 became a father, that changed a lot of things. For me, it changed the way I viewed risk, I'd looked at things differently. And I thought to myself, when
51 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:18,600 when I take on risk, when I try to do something to increase myself, am I exposing him to more risk? Am I incurring more risk, or potential of losing
52 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:30,960 whatever I've gained, in hopes of becoming better in the view of other people outside myself or him. So becoming a father for me helped me mature in a way
53 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:45,360 that I would have not probably been successful at, had I not become a father. So in short, and in more specific terms, when I look at taking on risk, and I
54 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:58,920 placed my son in the middle of the conversation, will this next transaction, make it easier for me to be a father for him? Or will it be harder for me to be
55 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:12,090 a father to him. And for some of you that don't have children, what that means is, if I lose money, it doesn't take food from his mouth. It doesn't keep him in
56 00:12:12,090 --> 00:12:27,150 a position of being unclothed, it doesn't mean that we're unsheltered, it just means that now my time, my energy, my focus away from the charts, will not be
57 00:12:27,150 --> 00:12:42,570 able to be on him. Because I will be in regret, I will be in sorrow, I will re remorse for for the things I've taken on in terms of risk. So it dilutes my
58 00:12:42,570 --> 00:12:53,850 attention. As a father. Now I'm applying it to this real experience I have for myself, for those of you that are listening to don't have children, you don't
59 00:12:53,850 --> 00:13:06,570 have anything that is dependent on you. It's just you, you're young person, and you're living a life that's free of all that. In many ways, I envy that. Because
60 00:13:06,570 --> 00:13:23,310 there's a lot of emotional turmoil that come with managing children, even adult children that don't want to listen. And you have to find that reason to not just
61 00:13:23,610 --> 00:13:33,930 unwilling to take the risk, because if I lose, I'm still young enough I can make it back. That's how everybody starts in this industry. Now you can come in with
62 00:13:33,930 --> 00:13:42,060 all the greatest intentions of following your risk no more than this much and don't over trade. It's all fine and great until you start pressing the real
63 00:13:42,060 --> 00:13:57,060 button. Not a demo, not a funded account challenge where the money can actually come out of your own hands. When that money comes in and out of your account,
64 00:13:58,230 --> 00:14:09,180 the weight behind that is not something that can be easily explained away. It has to be felt out to be experienced. And the worst thing that can happen is you
65 00:14:09,180 --> 00:14:16,710 get lucky in the beginning because you think you're laying up treasure for yourself and it becomes so easy to think that it's always going to be easy for
66 00:14:16,710 --> 00:14:31,050 you. I'm just going to keep stacking up my emerald bricks of Dolla dolla Bill y'all pick up my next thing I'm going to spend money on pick up my next
67 00:14:31,050 --> 00:14:47,610 destination I want to go travel to an experience and put on my Instagram laying up treasures for yourself after a while and it's very, very short lived. Nobody
68 00:14:47,610 --> 00:14:58,110 cares. At some point. No matter how profitable you are. At some point you're going to reach that level where Yeah, I make money. Yeah, I'm doing well. But
69 00:14:58,650 --> 00:15:10,470 how many cars can I buy? And how many new things I have to buy to keep people interested in me. And then you discover what I discovered in my 20s, that nobody
70 00:15:10,470 --> 00:15:22,110 really cares. Not, they don't really care about you, when you do that. They're living vicariously through your decisions and what you show. And they think
71 00:15:22,110 --> 00:15:30,810 themselves, because they're spending time chasing and pursuing you, because you're doing that their, their concern is not about you. The concern that they
72 00:15:30,810 --> 00:15:41,190 had about me on America Online, was not generally about me. But I wanted to believe it was, and the people that do this, they want to be looked up to, they
73 00:15:41,190 --> 00:15:55,590 want to be worshipped, they want to be idolized, those things carry you only so far. And at some point, no matter how good you are, it stops satisfying. And
74 00:15:55,590 --> 00:16:11,670 when it stops satisfying you and you no longer get that well return on your investment. And you start seeing the diminishing returns, no matter what you do,
75 00:16:11,670 --> 00:16:20,760 and no matter what you try to do over the top, spending money showing this and showing that it won't bring you any satisfaction and won't really entice any of
76 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:30,540 your followers or people that look up to you. And you'll become bored. And their eyes are boring, rather, and you will become bored by what it is that you're
77 00:16:30,540 --> 00:16:42,900 doing. And the long and short of it is, that's all the wrong things. You're laying up treasures for yourself here. That's Piper, hold on one second, I'm
78 00:16:42,900 --> 00:16:43,980 sorry, me
79 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:49,590 to be
80 00:16:58,679 --> 00:17:13,229 that AI doesn't have a puppy to take care of a lot of people still think I was a real guy. Real distractions, real family real stuff. But when you have this
81 00:17:13,229 --> 00:17:28,409 pursuit of laying up treasures for yourself. That is such a short list. Journey of success. Because at some point, there's, there's simply nothing else to do.
82 00:17:30,179 --> 00:17:44,339 And that's an unfortunate state of mind to be in because I found myself that way in my 20s. And while it's easy for me to go out there, and show that I have lots
83 00:17:44,339 --> 00:17:51,869 of money, and I can earn lots of money, and I can create new business ventures and partnerships and do all kinds of things open up new mentorships and I'm not
84 00:17:51,869 --> 00:18:04,439 doing it, I told you I wasn't my pursuits, my why I'm doing anything going forward is four treasures I'm laying out for my family, I want to create
85 00:18:04,439 --> 00:18:14,189 memories for them. I want to create memories for myself. And I've robbed myself of that. And it's easy to get caught up in the success. I have lots of students
86 00:18:14,669 --> 00:18:21,749 that are making lots of money now. And they're finding success in what they're doing. And they feel good about themselves. I'm so thankful that they've had
87 00:18:21,749 --> 00:18:33,809 that experience. But I don't want you to think that that's all there is to it. Because at some point, if you don't have a child, now you might become a parent
88 00:18:33,809 --> 00:18:46,349 later on. And then all of a sudden, you're gonna have a greater sense of respect for risk. Because if you found yourself in a position of prominence or
89 00:18:47,189 --> 00:19:01,409 influence, and then you have a child. Now all of a sudden, because you are equipping them with a lifestyle that would be above the average lifestyle. You
90 00:19:01,409 --> 00:19:14,969 don't want to risk losing it. You want to make sure that they are able to be kept well provided for and I found that was the case for me. I don't want to do
91 00:19:14,969 --> 00:19:24,599 anything to upset the applecart. I wanted to make sure that, you know when they were raised by me that I wouldn't be in a position of lack like I was when I was
92 00:19:24,599 --> 00:19:34,829 younger. I know what it felt like to be sleeping in a car with a one year old or less than one year old. I know what it's like to be homeless. I know what it's
93 00:19:34,829 --> 00:19:46,619 like to have no roof over your head. No money in the bank. I know what it feels like to have a cease bank account and having to file bankruptcy. I've done all
94 00:19:46,619 --> 00:19:56,309 those things before I've done that. I think I've lived all that before. And when you have children, or for some of you that are listening, when you have a y that
95 00:19:56,309 --> 00:20:06,419 it's outside yourself. You do things for others People, they may not be directly related to you. They may not be your offspring, it may be that you want to
96 00:20:06,449 --> 00:20:17,849 sponsor, the less fortunate. You know, that's an admirable thing. It should not be broadcasted, it should not be out there. Say I support this, I support that
97 00:20:17,849 --> 00:20:29,039 person, I'm doing this and I'm doing that, because that's your reward, then I'm trying to do this folks. Like there's Scott every noisy toy going on in the
98 00:20:29,039 --> 00:20:40,829 background, I apologize. But you have to have some kind of sense of reason, some purpose beyond and outside yourself to do this. Because if you don't, you will
99 00:20:40,829 --> 00:20:52,529 take blind risk. You will do things when you're bored. And if you've listened to the student, I just retweeted the interview of one of my students, that was a
100 00:20:52,529 --> 00:21:08,399 mentorship student, Alex, he actually mentioned something that was kind of like the inspiration for this Twitter space today. If you listen to him before,
101 00:21:08,429 --> 00:21:18,839 before I get into, I want to correct him real quick. Power three was not invented by Larry Williams, power three was my interpretation on how to correct
102 00:21:19,259 --> 00:21:28,229 his lack of understanding about how to buy below the opening price on bullish days, or sell above the opening price on bearish days. So I'm not sure if there
103 00:21:28,229 --> 00:21:39,209 was a language barrier there, on his presentation on the interview, or in my discussions while he was learning but power three is mine. But he mentioned when
104 00:21:39,209 --> 00:21:50,609 he was doing his interview, he said that he would say many times he would find himself in the trades, taking trades and wanting to lose. Now I'm sure when I
105 00:21:50,609 --> 00:22:00,839 heard that I was thinking right away that there's gonna be people, the trolls, many of them would love to pounce on something like that. And if you look at the
106 00:22:01,019 --> 00:22:08,849 the presentation from a hole, and then try to apply it to yourself, you probably understand really what he means but don't want to really want to admit it.
107 00:22:09,479 --> 00:22:18,629 Here's my interpretation of what I believe he was trying to say. And I had experienced it myself. And I've seen other students do the same thing. I'm
108 00:22:18,629 --> 00:22:29,009 wrangling Piper right now. She's, she's by herself. We have a bedient school that scouts apart off today. And Piper had hers the other day, so we have to
109 00:22:29,009 --> 00:22:38,699 separate them. Puppies from the same litter, they have to be managed differently. Because they'll build a bond between them. And they'll isolate
110 00:22:38,699 --> 00:22:51,689 Bailey, and then becomes problematic. But back to Alex, in the mindset, the issue that he mentioned, if you look at the point in the conversation that he
111 00:22:51,689 --> 00:23:06,929 had with the funding company, he says that he would be in trades, and he wanted to lose, because he wanted to be spending time with his girlfriend. What that
112 00:23:06,929 --> 00:23:20,429 actually is, it's a form of punishment. And it's the very thing I'm talking about today. When you're trading, and you're trying to build wealth, you have so
113 00:23:20,429 --> 00:23:29,219 many other things that you have to balance in your life, you have to balance your personal life if you have children, if you have relationships. If you find
114 00:23:29,219 --> 00:23:40,229 yourself in a position where you're trying to take trades, and your mind is elsewhere, your mind is on someone else. Your mind is on your child, boyfriend,
115 00:23:40,229 --> 00:23:54,389 girlfriend, significant other spouse, your job. Maybe your pursuit is trying to get out of having to go to work. That's admirable. But what if you are in a
116 00:23:54,389 --> 00:24:05,939 position right now, that doesn't promote the clarity for you to be trading because you have to maintain your employment until you find a better job. Or if
117 00:24:05,939 --> 00:24:17,579 you're on a rocks with your employer and you might be losing your job soon because of performance issues or he didn't do something right. There wasn't a
118 00:24:17,639 --> 00:24:17,969 second
119 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:34,710 we're gonna hear a little bit of nature now. I gotta give her some running room. But the idea of these distractions like you're seeing me have to encounter and
120 00:24:34,710 --> 00:24:48,720 manage while I'm doing this live presentation. It takes a great deal of focus to trade and for me, most of you will easily distracted short term attention span.
121 00:24:49,050 --> 00:25:01,440 I wrestled a lot of things. If you are grades or taking picture you find yourself taking trades and entertaining God that I'm probably gonna lose on this
122 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:13,080 trade, but what the hell? I'm gonna roll the dice. Once that happens, then you're finding your thoughts linked to something outside of the market or the
123 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:23,640 charter and you're not respecting the risk. And what you're doing is this of constantly punishing yourself, because you know, that your time should be spent
124 00:25:23,940 --> 00:25:37,230 on that thing. person, that event, whatever it is, itself known to you while you're in a trade. How do you deal with that? While you close trade, you start
125 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:56,040 with the charts. But beneath the spread, draw down the trade, my favorite yet, this week, what's going to happen, your mind is distracted. You're looking at
126 00:25:56,040 --> 00:26:13,440 things with a clouded mind. And subconsciously, you're wanting to lose. So that way, you don't feel guilt without purpose. I'm gonna say that in a better way.
127 00:26:15,300 --> 00:26:25,410 You want to make sure that you don't lose sight of the importance of that thing that's distracting you that person, that thing that you should be doing, other
128 00:26:25,410 --> 00:26:40,260 than sitting in on that chart, taking that trade. That's the more weightier matter. But your impulsiveness, the gambler. They're in the driver's seat. And
129 00:26:40,260 --> 00:26:52,830 they and or he or she wants to build up treasure for themselves. Instead of building up treasure for something outside of yourself. For Alex, if you're
130 00:26:52,830 --> 00:27:04,290 listening, if you find yourself thinking like that, stop, don't trade. Only trade when you know that you're doing it to make a better life for you and your
131 00:27:04,290 --> 00:27:13,500 significant other, you're gonna find that your trading becomes so much easier, easier to manage the risk easier to manage psychologically, because you're
132 00:27:13,500 --> 00:27:24,030 taking the risk soberly. It's not used, it's just gonna lose the money. It's you and your significant other. It's you and your child that you're supporting. And
133 00:27:24,030 --> 00:27:35,130 it's a pendant of you put it in perspective like this. If you had a one year old child, just learning how to walk, there's this little, they don't know anything,
134 00:27:35,310 --> 00:27:45,930 don't know they're left from the right. Would you encourage them to go out there and run around in traffic? Of course not. It seems like an extreme right. But
135 00:27:45,930 --> 00:27:54,930 essentially, that's what you're doing many times as a trader, you're encouraging bad habits because you're not focused. You're trading for all the wrong reasons.
136 00:27:55,140 --> 00:28:07,950 And you're trying to store up treasure, laying up treasure, just for yourself. Where, you know, if I lose it, it's not a big deal. If I lose this account, if I
137 00:28:07,950 --> 00:28:21,240 blow this money, if I fail my funded account challenge, if I lose my funded account, I'll just reset it. That is a piss poor approach to mindset. That is
138 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:33,270 absolutely the worst mindset that you can adopt or start forging. You have to be diligent about risk at all times. And you have to elevate the risk respect of
139 00:28:33,270 --> 00:28:48,870 that risk to a degree that will prevent you from trading impulsively. Otherwise, the wolves come in with a war trying to keep up with the Joneses. That's an
140 00:28:48,870 --> 00:28:57,360 expression we say here in the States. What that means is someone has something in terms of a track record. They've done something monetarily they bought
141 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,840 something. They went somewhere they you
142 00:29:06,060 --> 00:29:21,360 clap, shoot a wolf. And what does a wolf want to do? Come in and devour steal like a fox in the henhouse. They want to take something from you never see a
143 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:30,600 wolf come in and say hey, you know like you need some extra let me drop you off something here at your door. Don't work like that. Cats and Cats seem to do that
144 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:41,340 though. I was watching a video the other day I saw this cat bringing its master whatever it found neither better call it and there are seen that with any dogs.
145 00:29:41,370 --> 00:29:59,850 Maybe they do it too but I digress. But a wolf. You got to keep them at bay. They come in to steal, kill and destroy. They steal your purpose for what you're
146 00:29:59,850 --> 00:30:09,180 doing. went for, because it's great having a desire to be come. There's nothing wrong with that. It's nothing egotistical about it, it's not greed that you want
147 00:30:09,180 --> 00:30:19,170 to be better than you are right now. It's not greed that you want to have more than have right now, that is not greed. Greed is having more than enough and not
148 00:30:19,170 --> 00:30:37,410 appreciating it. That's greed. A wolf is fearful. That's a fearful thing. If you were in a woods, and you saw a large wolf in front of you, okay, who you are,
149 00:30:38,460 --> 00:30:46,350 whether you had a firearm on your side or not, that scared the shit out of you. If it's not rolling its teeth at you, and it's ready to jump on you. You're
150 00:30:46,350 --> 00:30:57,690 going to respect that risk. And that's what happens when you start doing things outside yourself. And that's what you need to be prepared to deal with that
151 00:30:57,690 --> 00:31:12,540 level of risk and managing it. When you have a sense of purpose at above and beyond yourself, you're now accountable to no one. But you know, it's easy to
152 00:31:12,570 --> 00:31:24,210 manage your risk. But when you are accountable, when you're accountable for yourself and something or someone else, there has to be a greater appreciation
153 00:31:24,210 --> 00:31:37,560 for risk. If you don't manage that risk appropriately, and you do all the wrong things, try to get a trade to feel better. You aren't spending the time you're
154 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:48,570 supposed to be spending with your family. But your impulse is to gain was in the driver's seat. And you're in front of those charts. tucked in there, I have done
155 00:31:48,570 --> 00:31:59,220 damaged that I cannot replace on an emotional level with my own kids, with my wife that I can't replace that time with. And when I talk to you about these
156 00:31:59,220 --> 00:32:06,720 things, and these asshats are in my comment section saying he's railing all that stuff about his feelings about cares about that you're a broke ass person is
157 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:15,660 never going to be anybody. You're never going to amount to shit. But you're going to leave comments from somebody that's already lived it and has learned
158 00:32:15,660 --> 00:32:23,970 the lessons painfully so that way you a broke ass that won't listen to good sound reason logic, to keep yourself from making the same mistakes that I have.
159 00:32:27,150 --> 00:32:35,670 That's a wolf. These people are here to try to give you financial advice and they're fucking broke. They're broke, they're working still, and they're gonna
160 00:32:35,670 --> 00:32:51,780 tell you how to manage wealth. Not wealthy themselves. No idea how to become wealthy, that haven't even made it that that threshold yet. That's a wolf. You
161 00:32:51,780 --> 00:33:05,610 got to keep them at bay, key Bay. See a wolf. The only thing about themselves. I'm not thinking about myself, I'm not thinking about myself right now. I'm
162 00:33:05,610 --> 00:33:12,060 talking to you strangers that I'm not going to shake the hand of, we're not going to share a meal together. We're not going to be at a pub having a drink
163 00:33:12,060 --> 00:33:26,040 somewhere. But I know my voice carries far now. And some of you may listen to other people say things about what it is I teach and you might be discouraged or
164 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:36,000 maybe even doubt things while you're seeing a Live account. You've seen things called beforehand, you're seeing students that are coming forward. And don't
165 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:52,080 think that I'm trying to get anyone. I have certainly more say saying that. Because it's more impressive for me as the mentor to see those individuals that
166 00:33:52,080 --> 00:34:04,590 could very, very easily humble everybody else out there right now. We're talking 10 fold more than what you've seen. And these folks are living their life.
167 00:34:05,610 --> 00:34:16,020 Quiet, appreciative, and not trying to stir up anything. Because that's not why they got into it. They didn't get into this to feel significant. They had a
168 00:34:16,020 --> 00:34:29,700 greater purpose of what it is that they were trying to do. There why for doing it is in and of itself outside them selves. What's a better parent, someone
169 00:34:29,700 --> 00:34:40,470 that's willing to take risks, fly by the seat of pants, maybe even do things at their job that might get them fired while they have a family to take care of. Or
170 00:34:40,500 --> 00:34:50,190 someone that shows up, does what they're supposed to do and takes no additional risks and does everything with the purpose in mind to provide and maintain the
171 00:34:50,190 --> 00:35:01,470 livelihood of their self and their family? Clearly, it's the second but the second is not attractive right now. That's not logical to anybody right now.
172 00:35:01,500 --> 00:35:17,580 That's boring. That's not exceptional. When, in fact, it is exceptional. Because most of the things you see online is fake. It's an illusion. You're only seeing
173 00:35:17,580 --> 00:35:29,070 that fleeting moment where they did something, right. And the lack of consistency, longevity. There's no evidence of that. But you'll buy into the
174 00:35:29,070 --> 00:35:42,270 image of it all. If I was a wolf, really a wolf, I could fleece all of you, and you'd pay me whatever I want. And I would feed you just enough to keep you
175 00:35:42,270 --> 00:35:56,730 going. I can get way more richer than I already am. It's not my purpose. I'm spending my Saturday, pacing around my pool in my pajamas still. Walking around,
176 00:35:57,390 --> 00:36:12,930 slips in a wife beater. Hair on combed paint brush my teeth. Yeah, just had breakfast. And I spent my time demonetized with you, coaching you counseling
177 00:36:12,930 --> 00:36:24,600 you, encouraging you not to lay up treasure just for yourself. You have to have something outside yourself or for the reasons why you're doing it. And if you do
178 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:34,140 that, it becomes a lot easier. You would think oh, no, it's harder to be a parent. I loved it when I was a single parent. I loved it. Because no one did.
179 00:36:34,140 --> 00:36:45,600 It forced me to be responsible when I wasn't really responsible. I think if you were to ask me before I had a son. If I was responsible, I would then at the
180 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:55,470 time, say yes, but knowing what I know now about myself. And really what I was doing. At 51 years old, I really wasn't responsible. I was reckless. I was doing
181 00:36:55,500 --> 00:37:07,380 everything. With Wild abandonment, just pursuing some greater experience than I had the last time. And when I lost my wife, I wanted to be a womanizer because I
182 00:37:07,380 --> 00:37:14,850 felt that you know, I need to do that to make myself feel better. And to prove to everybody and other women that I'm worth being with when the things I was
183 00:37:14,850 --> 00:37:25,110 doing was not something that women would want to be with. I was not monogamous. I jumped around, slipped in beds and slept with married women. That's nothing to
184 00:37:25,110 --> 00:37:35,100 be proud of. I'm not bragging, I'm telling you. Some of you put me on a pedestal. I'm not a saint. I've made bad choices as a human being. I've made
185 00:37:35,130 --> 00:37:45,330 terrible decisions, decisions and choices in my personal life. And I'm talking to you. Because money will cloud your vision and you won't see the mistakes
186 00:37:45,330 --> 00:38:00,000 you're about to make. These things carry deeper scar tissue than losing money in a trade. I promise you, you have no idea, the sense of remorse and regret. That
187 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:11,400 holds deep grips on me that I've done to myself that were self inflicted, because I didn't know any better. No one sat down with me and told me this is
188 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:20,370 what you should have done. This is what you shouldn't have done. I was reacting emotionally and impulsively thinking that I needed to do that. To replace the
189 00:38:20,370 --> 00:38:32,310 pain I was going through the lack of self respect or self worth that I had when I was younger person. But you don't hear that now. When I'm talking. Everybody
190 00:38:32,310 --> 00:38:41,220 says I'm arrogant. Everybody says I'm overconfident. Everybody says I'm a prick. That's because I've learned lessons that enable me to have this mindset. I'm not
191 00:38:41,220 --> 00:38:51,060 afraid. I know I can go out there and make money I can touch anything and make it gold. So because I can doesn't mean doesn't mean that I should go out there
192 00:38:51,060 --> 00:39:07,080 and flaunt it in front of everybody. And you shouldn't either. That's a that's a wolf mentality. Look at me. Yours is for me. Mine is for me. That's a wolf.
193 00:39:12,119 --> 00:39:25,379 When you look at a lion when a Pride goes out, enhance, don't go out and kill in the lion has the death grip on the throat of the gazelle or whatever it may be.
194 00:39:27,149 --> 00:39:37,739 It basically did the kill. The other ones may hold it down. But that kill was by suffocation. By one line. She's got a hole of its throat and waits for it to
195 00:39:37,739 --> 00:39:53,789 give up the ghost. They take that meat home. They share it together. So they take on the risks of going after that pray. Not for a single purpose of feeding
196 00:39:53,789 --> 00:40:06,749 their one single belly. But that purpose is the same mind You should have as a trader, you have to have something outside yourself you're responsible for. I
197 00:40:06,749 --> 00:40:14,579 promise you, if you are not doing that, you can tell me you can show me statements. You can show me certificates where you got funded, you can show me
198 00:40:14,579 --> 00:40:26,009 payouts, but I'm going to tell you in the quiet in the the moments where you're by yourself, You're shitting bricks, you're in trades, you knew damn, well, you
199 00:40:26,009 --> 00:40:38,999 shouldn't have been in hoping that it pans out in your favor. You're doing so many resets, that the public doesn't even know about. That's the real you. Can
200 00:40:38,999 --> 00:40:53,729 you get caught up in the idea of showing an illusion? Here's what I did look at me. When you just take a step back and say, What have I been doing right now? Up
201 00:40:53,729 --> 00:41:05,999 to this point, what have I been doing? Have I been doing things that are for the better meant of something outside of myself? Am I leaving something behind? For
202 00:41:05,999 --> 00:41:19,289 me, generational wealth is important. more so now than it's ever been because my children aren't equipped yet to be able to manage the difficulty that the mental
203 00:41:19,289 --> 00:41:31,319 aspects of trading bring with it. They have amazing weapons at their disposal, but they have also young minds that are very, very impulsive. Just like yours,
204 00:41:31,499 --> 00:41:45,899 just like mine was. Think about it. When you join the military, Air Force? Did this let anybody sign up? Go on air here, just jump in this Raptor, fly it
205 00:41:45,899 --> 00:41:56,699 around? Do whatever you want to do? Try it out, you know, take a spin? No, of course not. Why? Why wouldn't you want to do that? Because it's worth a lot of
206 00:41:56,699 --> 00:42:06,989 money. And they get hurt themselves and other people and collateral damage. So there has to be some growing that's required and maturity. And I'm hoping that
207 00:42:06,989 --> 00:42:16,259 my children will grow into a greater appreciation for what it is that's available to them to participate because they have the ability to have a Nigma.
208 00:42:17,759 --> 00:42:28,559 Recklessness over trading, trying to be in here before it happens. Trying to predict the setup, not take the setup. There's difference, we can anticipate a
209 00:42:28,559 --> 00:42:35,999 setup, but you're predicting I'll get this by the time I enter, then there really will be a reason in there. You know what that feels like you've been
210 00:42:35,999 --> 00:42:49,709 doing it for months, blowing accounts trying to do it. Because you're taking on risk in and of yourself, the why that you're doing it is just you. And while you
211 00:42:49,709 --> 00:43:00,659 lie to yourself and say I'm comfortable. If I lose the account, it's no big deal. That is a piss poor mentality. Every single account, every single
212 00:43:00,659 --> 00:43:10,169 transaction must carry with it a great respect for risk. Because what you're doing is no different than someone that goes to Las Vegas with their life
213 00:43:10,169 --> 00:43:25,799 savings. And pisses it away. flies back home and wishes they never had the idea of going out there in the first place. Because they got lucky. One other time
214 00:43:25,829 --> 00:43:41,939 they went with their life savings this time. They put it all online and said hey, I'm gonna take the gamble. I'm gonna take that bet. I'm going all in and
215 00:43:41,939 --> 00:43:54,599 then the flop doesn't work out for you. And everything you put up is gone. You can only do that so many times folks with the skill set that's not quite there
216 00:43:54,599 --> 00:44:12,899 yet. It's easy to quit. It's easy to quit when it's like that and you deny yourself opportunities that are before you. There is pressure to be desired and
217 00:44:12,899 --> 00:44:27,479 you can take this and turn it into something beyond your wildest dreams or you can destroy everything with impulsiveness doing things that you shouldn't have
218 00:44:27,479 --> 00:44:38,819 done thinking about things you shouldn't even thinking about worrying about emotions that have no been no basis for being in the process of what it is
219 00:44:38,819 --> 00:44:39,389 you're trying to do.
220 00:44:49,320 --> 00:45:01,890 To Scotland iron fence around our swimming pool and she's still small enough to go through the the rails of my fence. Decent Ever gone through it before. But
221 00:45:01,890 --> 00:45:08,730 she just discovered that you can do it. And look on her face when she came back and she's like, Oh, I can get out here. And then she saw me she's like, Oh,
222 00:45:08,910 --> 00:45:26,850 crap. Dad caught me. Yep, that's all. So I want you to think about how this is applicable to you. Because if you are a rebel if you are a cowboy gunslinger out
223 00:45:26,850 --> 00:45:41,580 there that hey, you know, I'm gonna go sling with the best. And I'm the best now until the last year was running. And if you're back, oh, whatever, it was fun.
224 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:58,410 I'm living my life. Pedal to the metal, full bore, never slowing down. You might want to take some inventory, and change some things. Because this game is won by
225 00:45:58,410 --> 00:46:13,320 the long game, not the short game. Take a step back for a second step out of yourself. present this entire industry right now as it is as a teach. What do
226 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:27,150 you see? Get rich quick. All you have to do is pay the reset. It's not your money losing what the fuck it ain't. It is your money that you're spending on
227 00:46:27,150 --> 00:46:51,420 those resets and can't get funded. Can't hold on hold on once you get it. So the ocean is absolute oneness with a good steward How could possibly expect to be
228 00:46:51,420 --> 00:46:59,820 rewarded with more when you can't even manage the little that you work with right now. And you think something magical is gonna happen when you get funded.
229 00:47:00,210 --> 00:47:12,360 Something magical is gonna happen if someone laid down a large sum of money and said hey, we don't know that much about you. But here manage this for us. That's
230 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:25,230 pipe dreams. I don't sell that here. I talked to you in a manner where I want you to take stock in it. Think about what it means to you. What does it mean for
231 00:47:25,230 --> 00:47:36,840 you to have a greater sense of risk when you have the perspective outside yourself, not just oh if I lose money, it's no big deal. But if you lose money
232 00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:49,170 and you have someone that you're depending on that is dependent on you that is entirely something altogether different see trading after you read a book, watch
233 00:47:49,170 --> 00:48:04,920 some ICT videos and go to this person's workshop or whatnot you have the inspiration but you don't have the mindset mindset has to be forged. You know
234 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:18,870 how to get not here's how you get the mindset through losing your ass that has to happen that has to happen every success story every single one of them has
235 00:48:18,870 --> 00:48:30,540 had a ask that has been chat they've learned something they looked at it from a different perspective after losing and some of you think that you're gonna just
236 00:48:30,540 --> 00:48:42,960 walk through here waltzing through like everybody's gonna part ways let the man go through adversity isn't gonna lay a handle on you drawdown and going to visit
237 00:48:42,990 --> 00:49:00,000 your house losing trades as a foreign language we don't speak that around here. Until it does happen no sudden your ask gets twisted. Oh my goodness did change
238 00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:09,120 in the algorithm. What the hell is this this candle was supposed to be a fair value gap. They didn't respect it. Look at this. This was supposed to be by side
239 00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:19,530 liquidity. They ran it now should go the other way. And it just kept going up. Hello. Welcome to the real game.
240 00:49:25,050 --> 00:49:38,700 mindset. Psychology, that's what these Twitter spaces are all about. It's not me bloviating nonsense that the broke ass is that want to comment? These are people
241 00:49:39,690 --> 00:49:49,800 that want to tell you don't waste your time. But they're going to work on Monday, making less money than you probably do your job because they're
242 00:49:49,800 --> 00:50:06,990 miserable. Or they're selling something that they can't get sales with. And they're miserable. I wish and this is not me giving myself self love here I'm
243 00:50:06,990 --> 00:50:19,440 not bragging when I say this I wish that I had the resource that I'm making available to you when I started I swear to God Almighty I wish I had it because
244 00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:33,150 I did not have any any navigation laid before me where this is what I shouldn't do this should I shouldn't do I had to learn through pain and by God's grace He
245 00:50:33,150 --> 00:50:48,660 then stepped in he joined the chat I try to talk to you in a manner where maybe it is uncomfortable and you should be thankful that it is because greatest life
246 00:50:48,660 --> 00:50:57,450 lessons come through pain it doesn't come through the feel good moments think about it when you have a feel good moment when you have a good winning trade pay
247 00:50:57,450 --> 00:51:14,400 attention folks. This is the part that really matters. Just won something got a nice trade got funded got a payout well feels good doesn't it? Yes it does. Yes
248 00:51:14,430 --> 00:51:34,980 it does. Little pig little pig let me in the wolf shows up you forget about how good it felt to do that and what you did to earn it and you gotta run you gotta
249 00:51:34,980 --> 00:51:48,030 run to get to that next opportunity you need to get inside of another house you gotta move it's moving day the wolf's on your ass we got to move my brother he's
250 00:51:48,030 --> 00:51:58,680 got a better house than me. I'm gonna trade what he's trading you might get success you had a feel good moment. Oh man everything I'm touching this is
251 00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:15,060 working. I'm a trader I'm a natural little pig little pig led me in once again that will shows up. Oh shit you and your brother. Your trading partner? Your
252 00:52:15,060 --> 00:52:27,030 study partner. I see T students we gotta go it's time to move it's moving day my brother got a YouTube channel he's doing this with Smart Money concepts. Let's
253 00:52:27,030 --> 00:52:48,990 go you run on over there. Oh my goodness look at this Win Win wait little pig little pig let me in some different about that third one. He had foresight he
254 00:52:48,990 --> 00:53:02,460 didn't make a house out of straw with a book can come in and blow it down and the second brother didn't make his house out of straw he made out of wood sticks
255 00:53:03,390 --> 00:53:15,480 a little bit more sturdy. A little bit more rhyme and reason in his trading plan one more PD array it's still not quite enough they had to run the big brother's
256 00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:26,670 house good oh I see fucking t his house is made out of brick in a wolf can't come and Blow that bitch down. Keep on knocking motherfucker. Because you ain't
257 00:53:26,670 --> 00:53:45,030 getting in in my house. We all eat and we're not eating what's different experience for site preparation majority of you want to get out there and you
258 00:53:45,030 --> 00:53:52,020 want to build a house a straw. That means I want to get funded and get a payout? Because that's the visibility that you have. That's all you have right now. Give
259 00:53:52,020 --> 00:54:05,130 me shelter from the storm might get wet still. But it's better than being outdoors. Outdoors is working for live in the nine to five rat race. Everybody
260 00:54:05,130 --> 00:54:17,910 wants to get out of that hunger. So how much money you make some of you have a little bit broader perspective, but not quite as far as it should be. It should
261 00:54:17,910 --> 00:54:32,370 be with a great deal of preparation for adversities. So you might say okay, you might be that second little pig, where you see other people out there rushing to
262 00:54:32,370 --> 00:54:42,420 get paid out. You heard some Twitter spaces like this in the past by me and it's gonna be something different about the way I do it. I'm going to look past that.
263 00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:53,400 I want to get to the point where I can buy a fancy car because that's it's not just a pay out then I have a goal. I'm gonna go out and get myself a Lambo.
264 00:54:53,430 --> 00:54:58,020 geaney gonna get matched up a McLaren lease
265 00:55:06,299 --> 00:55:24,059 walks out the door to creating bills without the trust, and knowing that the Providence and safeguard income that is absolutely available to someone as a
266 00:55:24,059 --> 00:55:39,089 well written, well generated trading plan, and money management strategy, and has already made preparations for adversities. That's the person that went
267 00:55:39,089 --> 00:55:48,359 through the full year with no real trading. That's the person that did all the back testing, finding their own model, learning what it is, that's going to
268 00:55:48,389 --> 00:55:59,729 cause them to be reckless. And they're building their house with brick. Because they know there's wolves out there. They know that the rains coming, and storm
269 00:55:59,729 --> 00:56:11,639 will beat against that wall and beat against that roof. And they want to make sure they have a sound structure around them. A mindset that is at peace, not
270 00:56:11,699 --> 00:56:40,709 trading impulsively, because they want. They want you want. I used to be a wolf. Now, I don't eat lamb. And I don't eat pork. I want you to do well. I want you
271 00:56:40,709 --> 00:56:51,389 to thrive, I want you to succeed, I want you to have everything that your heart's desire. But I don't want you to lose sight. But the costs that is going
272 00:56:51,389 --> 00:57:02,549 to be associated with it. And never lose sight with the adversity that are looming out there that you think that you're going to be the exception to it
273 00:57:02,549 --> 00:57:11,669 isn't going to touch you it is going to happen to you. When you build your trading plan, and you risk the amount of money that allows for imperfection.
274 00:57:12,119 --> 00:57:26,309 Even when you see yourself doing well in the future. Do not take exaggerated risk. And the easiest way that you can start forging that mindset now is having
275 00:57:26,309 --> 00:57:35,549 some measure of accountability that is outside you. It doesn't mean go to your spouse who doesn't support you right now that thinks what you're doing is
276 00:57:35,549 --> 00:57:51,599 foolishness. Can you imagine, I mean, my wife sees the fruits of all this stuff. And still I can tell you with great fondness. If I told her back then, hey, this
277 00:57:51,599 --> 00:57:59,669 is what I'm going to do. And I'm starting not because I was doing this already, before I met her, she would have shut down everything. And it would have pissed
278 00:57:59,669 --> 00:58:13,019 me off. I probably would have got rid of her. She's very, very opinionated. And that would have affected me mentally. So God's perfect timing. He brought us
279 00:58:13,019 --> 00:58:25,919 together after I was already established. Some of you might be looking at the idea of this presentation thinking this sounds like Nursery Rhymes and bullshit.
280 00:58:27,839 --> 00:58:39,419 Yep, went right over your head. You aren't going to be successful. You want the secret weapons. Because you don't want the user's manual. Want to go through and
281 00:58:39,419 --> 00:58:52,859 pull your fucking heads off, messing around, trying to be wider. Don't want to understand hope but safely beat you in game long enough to get what it is that
282 00:58:52,859 --> 00:59:08,999 you're seeking after. See a third pig build house a brick. But a good strong foundation. And I teach with that mindset. I want you to learn properly. Can I
283 00:59:08,999 --> 00:59:21,779 go out there and throw some Mickey Mouse shit together just to sell some coursework and make some fast money? Absolutely. Absolutely. But also no human
284 00:59:21,779 --> 00:59:32,669 nature 99% of you are going to be in a rush. You're not going to follow rules. Even my own private mentorship students. I'll lay down some instructions on them
285 00:59:32,699 --> 00:59:46,469 very plain. And it's amazing how many of them ignore the plain text of do this, don't do that or you're disqualified. And they don't listen. They've been with
286 00:59:46,469 --> 00:59:55,019 me for years. They actually paid me isn't me mentoring them poorly or is it them themselves not following instructions. It's them themselves not following
287 00:59:55,019 --> 01:00:07,139 instructions. So if I'm going to do this, if I'm going I mentor if I'm going to teach, I'm going to pour myself into it. And I'm going to do it exactly how it
288 01:00:07,139 --> 01:00:20,009 needs to be done. I'm not out here trying to get the well, approval from any of you. I live this. And you're seeing students that are courage enough to go out
289 01:00:20,009 --> 01:00:34,289 there and make themselves known. And the fruits thereof. I could say, hey, look, all my students that are profitable. Since you have respect for me, you answer
290 01:00:34,289 --> 01:00:45,659 all those people out there to have things bad to say about me and what it is you've spent time and money learning, go out there and show him what for. I'm
291 01:00:45,659 --> 01:00:56,129 not a weak little minded bitch. I don't need to. And they don't need to do it. But some people are just built differently. They just want to go out and do it.
292 01:00:56,819 --> 01:01:07,289 Because like me, when I was younger, I have a chip on my shoulder. I need to prove self worth. Because you don't know what it feels like to be a child that
293 01:01:07,889 --> 01:01:17,219 your own parents don't want to deal with. And one of them had to threaten the other one's life just to make sure that the worn some heavy shit when you put it
294 01:01:17,219 --> 01:01:36,269 on you. So I spent my life building something in me to make my parents understand that that shit didn't stop me. I didn't grow from the same vine. They
295 01:01:36,269 --> 01:02:00,329 did. I cut myself off. I planted myself here. And all of you are my fruit. I'm living for all of you. What am I getting paid right now. There's dozens of
296 01:02:00,329 --> 01:02:06,809 people out there turned on right now you're listening to and they're gonna put it on their YouTube channel. They're gonna monetize it. And folks, if you're
297 01:02:06,809 --> 01:02:18,299 doing that, I don't care. Pay your bills. I don't care. But I'm not monetizing it. I could, or these are all things I could be putting on my YouTube channel.
298 01:02:18,329 --> 01:02:27,389 And yes, I might drop some F words once in a while. But as long as it's not happening in the first 30 seconds. They won't they won't D monetize it. I do
299 01:02:27,389 --> 01:02:38,279 this for a reason. I want you to understand that I'm investing my time. I'm investing the wisdom that I've gained over hardships in the hopes that you
300 01:02:38,279 --> 01:02:50,849 appreciate the fact that I could be doing something else on my fucking Saturday mornings. I can be doing something else. Besides this. We're not getting paid to
301 01:02:50,849 --> 01:03:02,579 do this not getting chump change when you to 25,000 20,000 hours a month. You already saw I can do that in a week. Real money
302 01:03:10,679 --> 01:03:26,519 some of you stand in your own way. And you don't understand when I'm trying to ask you to take stock in yourself. What is it you're doing wrong? It's an
303 01:03:26,519 --> 01:03:37,559 uncomfortable thing to to pursue and to investigate what is it you're doing incorrectly? All of my personal students that are profitable. They have done
304 01:03:37,559 --> 01:03:53,669 that. And they don't hide from it. Ask any of them that are making fucking real money real money. Hey, what did you struggle with most? What do you struggle
305 01:03:53,669 --> 01:04:07,229 with still today? What was your greatest learning experience? What are your weaknesses? They're easily answering you what they are. They're not like these
306 01:04:07,229 --> 01:04:18,659 fucking misfits online hiding, like they don't have any weaknesses at all. Only showing you wins, only showing you the sweet stories showing you shit that
307 01:04:18,659 --> 01:04:34,049 mentorships and coursework sells will yield them in terms of profit. The real people, the ones that have really gone through this process correctly. They
308 01:04:34,049 --> 01:04:48,569 didn't lose sight of what makes them go off the rails. And sometimes they may still wrestle with it. That's the reality of trading data if you strung all
309 01:04:48,569 --> 01:04:56,669 together all these Twitter spaces I've done since I started doing them, and that's to say I was writing a book. And it was everything I said in these
310 01:04:56,669 --> 01:05:10,979 Twitter spaces, but composed inside of tech book what not to do as a trader, and how to think correctly. That's a brilliant title. Nobody's buying that fucking
311 01:05:10,979 --> 01:05:15,749 book. Nobody's buying that book, not one person is going to buy that book
312 01:05:20,909 --> 01:05:30,869 How to Learn to trade with a demo account? Over 12 months, nobody's buying that fucking course. Nobody's buying that book. Nobody's watching that playlist.
313 01:05:36,270 --> 01:05:49,170 But that's the real shit. Everybody that sits in and listens to these Twitter spaces. You have exactly what's required. Because you want to know how to think.
314 01:05:50,250 --> 01:05:59,040 You want to know what's going to derail you. You want to be counseled? You want to be encouraged? I'm not showing you my chart. We're not even talking about the
315 01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:09,660 open high, low and close. We're not referring to any specific setup here. We're talking about what's going to be the definitive ground. Bottom of the road, you
316 01:06:09,660 --> 01:06:23,550 know, this is this is down to brass tacks down to the Chrome, what's the success or failure in you? You it's always you. And some of you aren't equipped to
317 01:06:23,550 --> 01:06:31,950 accept that fact. You think it's gonna be? Well, it's gonna be convenient for me to blame ICT because he doesn't trade with iPhones. Whoa, whoa, something's
318 01:06:31,950 --> 01:06:48,150 wrong with that fucking excuse now, isn't it? It's gonna be real convenient to be able to blame this market today. I told you no trade this day. Oops. It's
319 01:06:48,150 --> 01:06:56,370 gonna be real convenient for some of you to say, Yeah, I tried to trade that I see bullshit. And watched a couple of videos, to be honest, was probably three
320 01:06:56,370 --> 01:07:08,040 of them. never took any notice. But this guy talks too much. He's full of shit. So that's the reason why I don't work. It's you, buddy. Hey, FS alanine, gotta
321 01:07:08,040 --> 01:07:21,120 make it in here. FS Allen is not going to make it in this industry. You have to pour yourself into it. And you have to have have a greater purpose in mind. That
322 01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:31,680 is not in limited to just you. When you're accountable to more than just you. You're going to trade differently. You're going to think about that risk
323 01:07:31,740 --> 01:07:40,470 differently. You're not going to say bucket man, it's 15 contracts. If I blow the account, it's just the reset shit. It's easy to do on this account. Now
324 01:07:40,470 --> 01:07:53,010 let's just go out it was the worst that can happen. The worst that could happen is you're creating this mindset that well, you know, I don't have to be all that
325 01:07:53,010 --> 01:08:01,500 diligent about what it is I'm doing. I can roll the dice like I'm at the casino. And if I get lucky and have a lottery win, look how cool it's going to be if I
326 01:08:01,500 --> 01:08:12,540 show my payout on this big exorbitant amount of money that wasn't acquired by skill Listen folks, people win the lottery all the time. It was no mental
327 01:08:12,540 --> 01:08:23,100 acrobats they require of them to be able to do that they foolishly spent their fucking money on this dumb shit and chances of that happening were so next to
328 01:08:23,100 --> 01:08:38,400 nothing but yet it happened for them. And I knew a person by his name is Butch stop it. Piper is going after me. You know Meeker will announce that is when
329 01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:55,080 these high dollar slips and on a mall tour. Materialism stopper girl This guy was a block layer of a brick. And he's if I have three teeth in his whole head.
330 01:08:57,480 --> 01:09:10,530 Bald, drove around with a trash bag duct taped over his passenger side window for years, never replaced it. Had a young young girl working at a laundromat and
331 01:09:10,530 --> 01:09:20,070 Middle River, a blond haired girl. She was the attendant and obviously he's too old for her. And you know he's probably dirty old man mentality. He'd go in here
332 01:09:20,070 --> 01:09:29,160 and play on their little slot machines and illegally they would pay out if he want happens a lot in the bars and stuff around here still today. But they got
333 01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:36,960 to trust the clientele that's being paid out. And he was one that they could trust that if he did it he get paid out. You're not making much. In fact, he's
334 01:09:36,960 --> 01:09:45,360 probably spending more money than he was actually getting out doing it. Long story short. He went out and said I want to get scratch off. And the girl that
335 01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:59,280 he had to fancy for said no Butch. The big game tonight is $30 million and took his dollar bill instead of buying the scratch off. This young lady processed the
336 01:09:59,280 --> 01:10:14,760 fucking A winning ticket. He Custer in the very next day, he's on the shoulders of max weight, which was his boss. carried around on the news. He's $30 million
337 01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:26,520 rich. What the fuck? Exactly? And the first thing he went out and did was bought himself a Ford Mustang a green ugly ass fucking convertible Mustang with a tan
338 01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:34,530 top pow fucking stupid. That's new money for you though, folks. Oh shit, I just made $30 million on a lot of you, man. Let me go out to the dealership. Tell
339 01:10:34,530 --> 01:10:42,540 them here's the proof I want because they'll do that. And it gave him the shittiest looking fucking Mustang I've ever seen in my life and everybody in
340 01:10:42,540 --> 01:10:55,800 neighborhood laughed at him. So what'd he do? He went out and got himself a Corvette convertible, red. I was envious his shit. That was pretty. That was
341 01:10:55,800 --> 01:11:05,700 pretty. That read would look good. And I'm like read. Still, everybody complained and said, Dude, what the fuck is wrong with you? You just made $30
342 01:11:05,700 --> 01:11:15,180 million. You're buying that. Just like some of y'all. You made all this money selling mentorship ICT and you got these little glass Chevy Corvettes. Where's
343 01:11:15,180 --> 01:11:25,710 your big dollar cars? Well, if you know anything about Maryland, the roads around here. You just can't drive these really, really low profile cars without
344 01:11:25,710 --> 01:11:38,070 tearing them up. And Chevy's, their Corvette, that's my dream car. I don't want that on my life. Now I've been a Corvette man all my life. So he trades his
345 01:11:38,070 --> 01:11:52,590 Corvette in and gets himself an orange burst. Lamborghini Ooh, pretty pretty. Pretty fucking wide too, and got stuck inside the Taco Bell drive thru. tore up
346 01:11:52,590 --> 01:12:08,640 the fucking rams had to get pulled out by record. How about that? New money? New money you think that's stupid. He treated him once he got his rims fixed. Got a
347 01:12:08,640 --> 01:12:20,040 Ferrari. And didn't get the vibe that he was hoping for it. traded the Ferrari in for the same fucking Lamborghini that he gave up. They replaced the rims for
348 01:12:21,900 --> 01:12:40,350 now. What is that? That's Little pig. Number one. straw house. chastened ship. That means nothing. Nobody ended up doing still going in that laundromat? I
349 01:12:40,350 --> 01:12:52,260 think he got 13 and a half million dollars because he did the cash option. The outage on the annuity and still bet on that fucking little poker machine that
350 01:12:52,260 --> 01:13:03,630 wasn't gonna pay him anything. What do you really want? He wanted that girl. He knew what he got her. took her to Atlantic City. They stayed up here a couple
351 01:13:03,630 --> 01:13:19,440 times. And not to be crude, but he hit it and quit it. I've seen her in recent years. He's a mess. And he's been to Atlantic City. He's been through the local
352 01:13:19,980 --> 01:13:27,690 casinos here. And you probably saying What the hell does God do anything? This is what some of you are thinking like, and if you get these big payouts you're
353 01:13:27,690 --> 01:13:37,560 gonna have just like this guy. He spent in wasted millions of dollars in casinos. Trying to get more. You're not satisfied with 13 and a half million
354 01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:46,830 dollars 13 and a half million dollars friends, listen, you're set for life. You're done. You're done. If you manage it appropriately, your family can live
355 01:13:46,830 --> 01:14:01,710 off of that once you're gone. I'm not aware of where he's at today, because we're talking about something about 1012 years ago actually knew what my son
356 01:14:01,800 --> 01:14:10,170 Caleb is. Now we're talking about something 24 years ago, man Good grief. Tom really flew I don't know where he's at today. I don't know if he has any money
357 01:14:10,170 --> 01:14:25,170 left or not but he's chasing that moment. That feel good moment. And that's what I was talking about earlier that I lost track didn't know when you have a when
358 01:14:26,370 --> 01:14:37,260 you had these success stories. They're fleeting moments. They only last momentarily and they're gone. They're gone. And you have to go out and try to
359 01:14:37,260 --> 01:14:47,880 get something else something new. Some new candy to share with your friends. But you got to keep the bigger piece for yourself because greed. But you want
360 01:14:47,880 --> 01:15:01,500 everybody in the neighborhood say wow look at Tommy's bike. Shit. I wish I had a bike like that. Wow, look at him, man. He's stressed out look at his drip. Shit.
361 01:15:02,280 --> 01:15:12,390 His kicks are awesome. I'm gonna get a pair of them. I don't care what I got to sell on hawk. I'm gonna get that. That watch look at that watch. Wow, you spent
362 01:15:12,390 --> 01:15:18,960 that much man if I had a watch like that people would really respect me. Let me tell you something, folks, I have watched it cost more than anybody that's an
363 01:15:18,960 --> 01:15:28,290 influencer in YouTube finance for forex or futures. I've watched the cost more than their fucking houses, okay. I don't need to show you that. Who gives a shit
364 01:15:28,290 --> 01:15:38,190 about that? They're not they're not good investments. When the shit goes upside down, that watch is going to do nothing for me. Nothing.
365 01:15:39,420 --> 01:15:45,180 My Corvettes aren't gonna do shit for me. The money in the bank ain't gonna do nothing for me
366 01:15:52,710 --> 01:16:09,120 your greatest lessons are going to be through pain for the atheists in the crowd. If God was real, why does He allow suffering? Because we are stubborn.
367 01:16:10,140 --> 01:16:18,660 And we don't want to listen. Unless it's hurtin. You know, you shouldn't smoke you know, you shouldn't eat fast food shouldn't eat and McDonald's horseshit.
368 01:16:20,700 --> 01:16:29,040 And even food and you're nobody good for you. You sit down in front of a physician, they'll tell you, you shouldn't eat that stuff. It's bad for you.
369 01:16:29,580 --> 01:16:39,420 Yeah, no, Doc. But you know, in moderation, moderation, do use every fucking other day. Now I'm sudden, fast forward, you got bad health, your weight,
370 01:16:39,540 --> 01:16:50,160 cholesterol off the charts, blood clots, everything, you got everything wrong with you. Now all of a sudden, now you got chest pains. Now because you can't
371 01:16:50,160 --> 01:17:00,810 walk, cross the floor a little bit for your winded. Now you want to listen to the doctors advice. The Doctor, please give me the good news. Give me some good
372 01:17:00,810 --> 01:17:14,940 news. I need to feel good. If you listen to that position, and somehow turn your health around, we're going to remember most you stuffing your face with that
373 01:17:14,940 --> 01:17:34,230 poison, colonic food and convenience. Are you going to remember, this doctor saved my life and caused me to make a change in my lifestyle? Pain, pain. Nobody
374 01:17:34,230 --> 01:17:43,590 wants to exercise. Nobody wants to change their diet until they have a heart attack. Nobody wants to do things different. You know, I'll stop drinking and
375 01:17:43,590 --> 01:17:55,500 driving. If I ever get in an accident, you know something bad happens. Some of you just need that kind of drama before you pay attention or think about
376 01:17:55,560 --> 01:18:05,370 potential risks. But you're going to drive your car drunk with your kid in your car. Are you going to willfully go out and get yourself in a position where you
377 01:18:05,370 --> 01:18:15,210 can get drunk knowing that you're gonna drive your own child around with you? If you're saying you would never make that decision, but if you're by yourself, you
378 01:18:15,210 --> 01:18:25,500 don't have any accountability to anyone. You're gonna do what many people do to get out and get in Newbury ated. self medicating themselves because they hate
379 01:18:25,500 --> 01:18:34,140 their life. They've made their choices in life and they're too lazy to change. I mean, it is what it is and you go and you drive drunk. Make it lucky make your
380 01:18:34,140 --> 01:18:51,270 home safely one time. You might not. I have family members that are gone now because of drunk drivers. But those life choices have painful consequences. And
381 01:18:51,270 --> 01:19:05,520 they are the most impactful learning experiences. You never learned anything by winds. You never learned anything but a sweet sweet savour of profit. It's
382 01:19:05,550 --> 01:19:26,490 always taught in drawdown. It's always learned in loss that's why suffering is permitted. Spare the rod spoil the child. Your best learning comes from getting
383 01:19:26,490 --> 01:19:38,850 your favorite when you touch that pot. Your parent told you don't touch that hot. What's that mean? Yeah, you know, now you know welcome the fuck around and
384 01:19:38,850 --> 01:19:53,580 find out population increase by one. That's the reason why suffering exists. And you should not be hate hateful or spiteful. When you have losing trades, because
385 01:19:53,580 --> 01:20:01,950 there are opportunities for you to improve. You're in drawdown accounts and someone had sent a tweet. I'm so disgusted with myself. have lost 50% of my
386 01:20:01,950 --> 01:20:13,080 account last few days trying to do something. Isn't that another thing? Well, what's the rule around here? We don't put them on pissing and moaning, our
387 01:20:13,080 --> 01:20:22,500 failures. You want to be a failure do that. Because all your attention, your energy, and time is being devoted to something, it's not going to yield any
388 01:20:22,500 --> 01:20:24,240 fruit to you at all except for rot.
389 01:20:31,109 --> 01:20:46,109 Embrace it. So you know what, I don't have it figured out yet. I'm not discouraged. I am excited. I'm excited how I'm going to take these piles of shit
390 01:20:46,289 --> 01:20:56,219 that I just simply wait around, let them calcifying become hard. And I'll use them like a fucking stepping stone and I'm going up. I'm not going to struggle.
391 01:20:56,699 --> 01:21:07,499 We're gonna wait around in this shit. I'm gonna sit still. And that shit will harden up. And step on top of it. This legacy, man, it'll carry you to a higher
392 01:21:07,499 --> 01:21:19,139 plateau. You can always buy new fucking shoes later on when you can afford it right now. It is what it is. Everything is temporary folks. Everything. And
393 01:21:19,139 --> 01:21:31,979 success, if you allow it to be to can be temporary. You don't want temporary success. You want to have a life experience where you have so many milestones
394 01:21:31,979 --> 01:21:40,769 that you look back on and say, at the time when I was walking into this, and it wasn't happening to me and I was feeling the pain and the struggle. I felt like
395 01:21:40,769 --> 01:21:51,779 it was the end I had to quit. But something inside me said you know what, this is a learning opportunity. It's just like a bad day at work. You still got bills
396 01:21:51,779 --> 01:22:06,479 to fucking pay? Suck it up, buttercup. You got somebody that's depending on you. You don't have a child, okay? You do. It's your future self. Are you trading
397 01:22:07,049 --> 01:22:20,219 with your future self in mind? Because you probably aren't. You're recklessly gambling. You're trying to do Mickey Mouse shit. And then bitching about, well,
398 01:22:20,249 --> 01:22:31,229 you're getting cartoon results. Better what you're doing, you're out here looking at people trying to be icons in industry, and they're all comic strips.
399 01:22:32,969 --> 01:22:44,489 They're comic strips. They're fucking cartoon figures. Okay, these people have no wisdom, they have no experience in being successful long term. But they're
400 01:22:44,489 --> 01:22:57,299 going to be your source, you're going to draw from them like a well, in the water is tainted. They're lying to you. They're giving you piss poor advice. And
401 01:22:57,299 --> 01:23:12,869 they're giving you the image routine. Hoping that that'll distract you long enough, so you can keep them getting paid. I want to see what you all do. I want
402 01:23:12,869 --> 01:23:27,659 to see how you live, whose lives you impact what you do with it once you're there. I enjoy doing this. But I have the latter part of my life to sit back and
403 01:23:27,659 --> 01:23:43,889 observe what my students do with this. How do you live your life? Do you live your life like an asshole? Are you a pillar in the global community where you're
404 01:23:43,889 --> 01:23:56,159 not trying to be all about you? Are you making an investment other people's lives? Are you impacting other people's lives in a positive way? That's why I'm
405 01:23:56,159 --> 01:24:09,119 doing this. I know all the things I have in this world is bountiful. And blessed. I am absolutely blessed Father, I'm so thankful that you favored me.
406 01:24:09,839 --> 01:24:21,749 And deservingly I did not deserve any of these things. I did not deserve to be chosen to have this understanding. In many times, I fall on my face as an
407 01:24:21,749 --> 01:24:38,489 advocate for him. Because I don't have the ability to control myself sometimes. But I don't think that he chose me foolishly he knows my heart he knows my
408 01:24:38,489 --> 01:24:49,769 intentions. And when I talk to you this way, in a in a manner in a capacity that is not yielding anything monetarily to me it's not giving me anything except for
409 01:24:49,769 --> 01:25:03,089 peace of mind knowing that I've instilled in you experience, wisdom, life experience that unless you go through these painful events You may not be of the
410 01:25:03,089 --> 01:25:13,139 mindset that the seat is a learning experience, it could be the ticket out of here and you don't ever want to do it again. That wasn't for me. I took lots of
411 01:25:13,139 --> 01:25:26,579 breaks, and I call it a quitting. But there's a lot of wrong ways to do this stuff. And it's always packaged as the easier shortcut. There is no shortcut.
412 01:25:27,509 --> 01:25:40,649 There's no way around the hard one step in front of the other journey. That's Piper chewing up a pair of swimming goggles. My son came which won't be upset
413 01:25:40,649 --> 01:25:50,879 about that, but serves him right. He left them on the ground. I told him to pick them up life lessons, he'll remember that now. He paid for it with his money.
414 01:25:53,459 --> 01:26:01,619 You're terrible father, you're letting your dog Chiapas thing. Save your parenting advice. I have children that aren't doing what I want them to do.
415 01:26:01,649 --> 01:26:16,619 Hardship is a lesson to good taskmaster. He's not going to want for anything, you know, he has to go out and buy another pair of goggles. So anyway, there's a
416 01:26:16,619 --> 01:26:28,349 lot of wolves out there that are wearing sheep's clothing. They look gentle, they look approachable. I want to go home. Pet that. That sheep. This person out
417 01:26:28,349 --> 01:26:40,139 here real quiet. Do anything negative to say they're always positive by my correspond my bullshit? Are they really what you think they are? Or are they a
418 01:26:40,139 --> 01:26:58,679 wolf? I don't know. That's for you to determine and decide and experience on your. Throughout this life, I've been a lamb. I've been one of these little pigs
419 01:26:58,679 --> 01:27:13,289 and little pigs. And I jumped from one thing to the next. And I live in a house of bricks now. It's rooted in my faith and the creator who obviously made this
420 01:27:13,649 --> 01:27:22,679 accessible to me, because if he didn't want me to have it, I wouldn't have it. I would fail in front of all of you. And I wouldn't have anybody doing anything
421 01:27:22,709 --> 01:27:37,529 with the transferable knowledge that I've made available to all of you. And I know what my reward is because I live my life through helping all of you. It's
422 01:27:37,529 --> 01:27:52,289 not always easy. Being out here in front of you like this where I'm unfiltered. Many times and today's not one of them, though. But many times I've cringed at
423 01:27:52,289 --> 01:28:01,799 my presentation. And some of you like those the most. I don't like them. They're embarrassments to me. But I did very, very
424 01:28:07,140 --> 01:28:18,270 my best I did my best today to try to stay on focus. And try not to go off the rails. But I did a few times. But I was able to fall back in. I wanted to do a
425 01:28:18,270 --> 01:28:29,460 whole lot more of leaving. But I think there was an audience that heard what they needed to hear today may not be for all of you. But it's okay. And like I
426 01:28:29,460 --> 01:28:40,200 said, Alex, he inspired this one today with his comment about how he wanted to lose. And that self punishment. And I want you to think about that. In closing,
427 01:28:40,200 --> 01:28:49,050 I want you to think about how, if you're in the trade, if you're about to take the trade, and you know that you should be somewhere else doing something else.
428 01:28:51,210 --> 01:28:58,860 Don't trade because your mind is not going to be on falling price action, you're not going to be following the institution order flow, you're not going to
429 01:28:58,860 --> 01:29:06,600 checking continuously. If the signatures are supporting your trade idea, you're going to be thinking about, I wish I would have done this, I better take care of
430 01:29:06,600 --> 01:29:12,960 this as soon as the straits that I'm gonna go do that very thing. But right now I got this to worry about and then all of a sudden your subconscious rises up
431 01:29:13,980 --> 01:29:33,300 and says you know what? You need to learn some humility today. And you allow it. You invite it and you encourage it. Knowing at that very moment that you know
432 01:29:33,300 --> 01:29:44,760 that you have lost the plot. You know that that trade is next to 100% going against you. It's not going to pan out. But what do you do? You stay with it.
433 01:29:46,440 --> 01:29:58,290 You stay with it. You're applying the mindset that you should subscribe to when you are following your rules and your model. You're applying it there see how
434 01:29:58,290 --> 01:30:13,080 that Miss wiring in your head It is. It's self inflicted, you need to elevate the purpose behind why you're trading a specific model that you trust that
435 01:30:13,080 --> 01:30:20,760 you've seen the fruits of it by back testing, does it really exist? Some of you don't believe it, you just hear me say it. And if I say it, then it must be the
436 01:30:20,760 --> 01:30:34,620 truth. And I'd always challenge all of you don't believe what I say. Go into the charts and see it for yourself. Because once you see it, no one, not any one is
437 01:30:34,620 --> 01:30:48,540 going to be able to convince you otherwise. And that is strength. That's not just confidence, that is strength. That's power. You can tap into that any time.
438 01:30:50,010 --> 01:30:57,870 No one can strip that away from you. No one can take it from you. No one can rewrite it. They can't discount it. They can't replace it with some other Mickey
439 01:30:57,870 --> 01:31:07,410 Mouse horseshit indicator based ports it that doesn't make any fucking money long term gimmicks we don't have them here
440 01:31:15,510 --> 01:31:24,060 you have to find your purpose for following that model. And when you know what it is the same way that you can hold on to a losing trade and had the conviction
441 01:31:24,060 --> 01:31:32,100 to hold on to it. Come hell or high water. I don't give a shit what these fuckers do market maker this bitch. I'm not getting out. How about that? Oh,
442 01:31:32,100 --> 01:31:42,330 yeah, you're going for my stop. Fuck you. I'm taking it off. I'm going to show you well. Well done. Well done. 35% drawdown well done. Nobody could have done
443 01:31:42,330 --> 01:31:59,850 better than you, man. Look at that. No one's doing it like you. Ah, yeah. What happens if you really listen? What happens is really, really listen. And you put
444 01:31:59,850 --> 01:32:08,970 some measure of accountability on yourself. Now that talked about stressing yourself out, I'm talking about real accountability, where you're doing things
445 01:32:08,970 --> 01:32:19,530 for the purpose of not only in bettering yourself. But something outside yourself. It could be a relative, it could be a spouse, it could be a
446 01:32:19,530 --> 01:32:35,340 relationship, girlfriend, boyfriend could be a niece or nephew. My one night one niece, she's. She's in a foster home. And it's my wife's sister who had way too
447 01:32:35,340 --> 01:32:43,620 many children for all the wrong reasons, and doesn't have any of them now she lost custody alone. And you process too much personal stuff now. It is what it
448 01:32:43,620 --> 01:32:55,230 is. But she has two daughters. Two different fathers. And they grow up in a household by white folks. And they're biracial. They're beautiful girls, they're
449 01:32:55,230 --> 01:33:04,890 absolutely beautiful. White people want to have the color of their skin. Okay, they're just, they're absolutely lovely. They're they're pretty, they're well
450 01:33:04,890 --> 01:33:18,540 behaved, but their parents or parents had no interest in them. So we were going to take them both in. And she chose to go with one of her friends, her friends,
451 01:33:18,720 --> 01:33:33,120 at schools, parents, I thought that one of them. And the younger of the two are with their grandparents. The older one, she is about to graduate high school and
452 01:33:33,120 --> 01:33:44,580 start college. And you know me I've done always said, college is a scam. Okay, and you're not guaranteed a job outside of the college. I'm a living testimony
453 01:33:44,580 --> 01:33:54,090 to that advanced extracurricular activity in terms of education. And even with a high GPA, it still didn't do well. So none of that stuff as promised none of it.
454 01:33:54,150 --> 01:34:00,720 And you all think that that's a barrier for you to not to try to trade Oh, nothing's guaranteed and you might lose your money. You might do it. Yeah,
455 01:34:00,750 --> 01:34:09,570 everything's a potential risk. You might die on your way to work tomorrow. Or Monday, whatever it is, God forbid nothing that no man has promised tomorrow.
456 01:34:10,140 --> 01:34:24,630 You aren't I'm not. But my niece. I told her when I bought the 2019 Corvette I told her I said it was in June of 2017. It was a company lease that I've since
457 01:34:24,630 --> 01:34:34,830 paid off, but the I took her for a ride and I told her I said listen, when you get to school, as long as you have not done anything foolish with your life,
458 01:34:34,830 --> 01:34:42,840 don't get into the drugs. Don't get hemmed up with some boy. Don't be getting pregnant and we don't know stupid things that most people do at your age. If you
459 01:34:43,200 --> 01:34:53,100 get to that point, I will get you your first car. And I'll help you if you want to go to college. If you want to do that. That's fine. But don't make any
460 01:34:53,100 --> 01:35:05,340 portrait choices with your life early on. Well, she graduates next year. She got a really high GPA. She She's in sports. She's a beautiful young woman. And I
461 01:35:05,340 --> 01:35:16,290 can't wait to invest in her. Because I want her there, I want her to have every advantage. I was hoping that we could adopt her. But, you know, friends are
462 01:35:16,290 --> 01:35:24,870 friends. And I guess if you have a friendship that's started with the younger ages and lower grades, it becomes like a sisterhood type thing. So she chose
463 01:35:24,870 --> 01:35:33,840 there, for the most part, and they've done so well. They don't live very lavishly. And I've been wanting to do a lot of things for but because if I did
464 01:35:33,840 --> 01:35:42,840 that, I would feel obligated to do that for the other kids that they have. And I don't really like their father. Not that he's done anything to her. But I just,
465 01:35:43,830 --> 01:35:50,790 I can't wait for her to get to that point. Because I'm going to have her set up, she's going to be having every advantage given to her. That's what I'm talking
466 01:35:50,790 --> 01:36:01,470 about. Have something that you're accountable for outside yourself. It's easy to find that. Go out and find somebody that is in need of something. You want to
467 01:36:01,470 --> 01:36:15,210 learn how to trade really, really good. Find someone that you're going to invest 30% Yeah, 30% after taxes, you're gonna invest in them to acquire something for
468 01:36:15,210 --> 01:36:26,850 them. But don't let them know about it. That doesn't build entitlement mindset. And then, and when you have it together for him, you bless him with it. You have
469 01:36:26,850 --> 01:36:39,870 no idea what that feels like. That sense of purpose. That sense of accomplishment. It feels so much better than just you making money in trades. It
470 01:36:39,870 --> 01:36:54,720 doesn't make any difference. Makes no difference at all. None. When you compare it to this I was making over $560,000 a week. Week when I was doing my
471 01:36:54,720 --> 01:37:06,870 mentorship that shit don't feel like nothing compared to going out and buying someone their groceries when we're in a grocery store. You can see you read them
472 01:37:07,050 --> 01:37:15,390 their face. They don't have the money that the pay for that stuff right now. And you watch them as you're walking through. I'm like a shark going into the house.
473 01:37:16,980 --> 01:37:24,180 And I'm looking for that person. Every time I'm there. I'm always looking for that person. Somebody in there. I'm going to read them. And their face you can
474 01:37:24,180 --> 01:37:33,870 see on there as they're talking to themselves whispering they see the sticker price on something. box of baking soda. This is what most recently happened. A
475 01:37:33,870 --> 01:37:45,030 box of baking soda. Folks think about that. That's nothing. That is nothing. Cigarettes cost more than that stuff. Is one woman picks it up, looks at the
476 01:37:45,030 --> 01:37:53,280 price and shakes her head and puts it back. Now I don't know what she's wanting to buy that baking soda for? Is it something that she really needs? Is she
477 01:37:53,280 --> 01:38:03,390 making cookies with it? Is she trying to refresh her refrigerator with it, she tried to clean it stovetop with lemon juice with I don't know. But when they are
478 01:38:03,390 --> 01:38:13,410 going up to the register, I'm trying to get myself in a position where I'm ready to be right behind them. That's the purpose is not because I'm going here to get
479 01:38:13,410 --> 01:38:24,150 milk and bread. Iosef means the bus. That's not why I'm there. I'm there to show up just the right time to be an encouragement to them. That's what I'm doing.
480 01:38:25,230 --> 01:38:33,870 I'm not bragging, I'm not trying to take my reward from the times I'm doing. I'm trying to encourage you to do something like this. And tell me what it feels
481 01:38:33,870 --> 01:38:47,670 like afterwards, because it feels freaking great. When you're right behind her. And she's up there. And she's got her card. You know I'm talking about and she's
482 01:38:47,670 --> 01:38:57,990 got her head down and she's putting her little pin in looking at being looked at by everybody judging her. Look at you drain on society. Folks, I grew up on
483 01:38:57,990 --> 01:39:10,500 welfare. I grew up on it. My family, I didn't have a lot of money. I know what it's like to have that kind of stuff and need it. And you come up behind them.
484 01:39:11,070 --> 01:39:21,210 And you whisper to the cashier. Don't let her pay for it. And he canceled the transaction. And you place that box of baking soda the biggest box it's on the
485 01:39:21,210 --> 01:39:31,620 shelf. And you say don't worry, it's it's covered. And they turn around they start crying. And he looked around like it can't be happening.
486 01:39:36,720 --> 01:39:48,780 If you trade if you try to succeed to make more for yourself, that's all we'll ever be. And you will never be satisfied. No amount of money is but even the
487 01:39:48,780 --> 01:40:01,380 smallest even the smallest insignificant amount of money that you help someone with at a time when they don't even expect it ever happened. It's You walk into
488 01:40:01,380 --> 01:40:12,570 their life rate that that moment, you're like an angel to them. You don't think it, the father is going to give you a reward for that. Everything I have down
489 01:40:12,570 --> 01:40:28,560 here is nothing. It's nothing. It's all loss, compared to what I'm trying to get later on when I'm not in this flesh. If you do conduct your life like this, and
490 01:40:28,560 --> 01:40:40,350 you try to reach other people's hearts, encourage them, let's say, turn into traders. I didn't say, hey, look on my YouTube channel. It didn't happen. But
491 01:40:40,350 --> 01:40:52,650 these people are at their wit's end, they can't make ends meet. What is she doing without that day? What is she trying to put off on, you know, I don't need
492 01:40:52,650 --> 01:41:03,810 that. So and so I can afford it right now. And when he grab a hold of you, and he squeeze you, and thank you, they don't know who you are. But they're so
493 01:41:03,810 --> 01:41:12,930 thankful that you stepped in their life at that very moment, let me tell you something, that, that right there, you tap into that. And you want to be
494 01:41:12,930 --> 01:41:23,190 successful things like that. There is no limit. There is no fear. Because you're going to trade differently, you're going to think about things differently.
495 01:41:23,190 --> 01:41:40,920 Because it's not your money. It's not your money, then you'll be a better steward with it. You'll live a Purpose Driven Life. And those moments, those
496 01:41:40,920 --> 01:41:55,020 last forever. Those moments, she's gonna go home, she's gonna tell her husband, hey, you ain't gotta believe this, you're not gonna believe this. I saw how much
497 01:41:55,020 --> 01:42:02,970 baking soda was, I couldn't believe I just couldn't, I couldn't justify spend that much on it, I put it back on the shelf. And this guy comes out of nowhere,
498 01:42:04,320 --> 01:42:14,130 pays for the groceries I have in here and puts a bigger box of baking soda up here and says it's covered. I would love to be a fly on the wall in that
499 01:42:14,130 --> 01:42:25,710 conversation. I would love to be a part of that moment where they share that testimony. And the Lord empowered you, me, whoever else that does these types of
500 01:42:25,710 --> 01:42:32,010 things gets all the glory. You're spending it wisely.
501 01:42:38,430 --> 01:42:50,490 So I want you to think like that. Think outside yourself. Because it's really ugly. And when it's just about you. It's not sexy, it's not cool. It's not
502 01:42:50,490 --> 01:43:06,120 encouraging. It's it's disgusting. There's no fruit in it. It just looks good out really to people that think it is worthwhile. But when you buy nice cars,
503 01:43:06,150 --> 01:43:23,220 trucks, boats, RVs, homes plural. That stuff wears off real fast. And that's why rich people that keep buying stuff all the time. They're miserable. Because they
504 01:43:23,220 --> 01:43:38,340 have no purpose. They serve no purpose in this world except for self gratification. And what people think of them. And I'm leaving. Right before I
505 01:43:38,340 --> 01:43:47,430 become bigger than I want to be I'm already really too too big for my britches in terms of the attention. I don't like all this attention. And I want to make
506 01:43:47,430 --> 01:43:52,890 sure you may not be able to hear me as a couple jets going over top. me a second here
507 01:44:02,040 --> 01:44:21,060 someone's going on somewhere in style. I'll be in I'll be on the wings. That's given to me by the Lord. I'm not going up here no more. But I lost my train of
508 01:44:21,060 --> 01:44:34,740 thought. Yeah, I don't I want to leave before it gets any bigger than this. To me, people talk about me, even the supportive perspectives. And I have none on
509 01:44:34,740 --> 01:44:46,470 this don't want to be that I don't want to be that. And hopefully, in November you will all have received what you were wanting to receive from Me. And most of
510 01:44:46,470 --> 01:44:54,450 you that don't think that you did receive it are the ones who's gonna have to go back through the content, the notes that you've taken if you've done so, and do
511 01:44:54,450 --> 01:45:02,790 a lot of self reflection, because that's what's holding you back. It's not for lack of trying on my part. It's not For lack of providing the content, I did not
512 01:45:02,790 --> 01:45:12,180 hide it from me. I've laid it out here for you. I've proven it to you. I've shown you a live account. I've shown you with executions, both demo I've talked
513 01:45:12,180 --> 01:45:22,320 about before it happened. You've seen it, you've handled it now. You don't need any further evidence did go into further investigation for yourself to be able
514 01:45:22,320 --> 01:45:31,890 to apply it. But you're gonna have to allow yourself the time and give yourself permission to not be able to pick it up right away. Because that's normal. It's
515 01:45:31,890 --> 01:45:40,290 gonna feel complicated for the lazy folks. Oh, it's the perfect excuse for laziness is too complicated. It's over complication. It's not complicated. But
516 01:45:40,290 --> 01:45:47,460 if you want to know why it does what it does that I teach that, if you want to go in and start finding something that gives you setups I've already done that
517 01:45:47,460 --> 01:46:01,230 to 2020 model, silver bullet. Mo now, you have no excuses. Multiple setups, I mean, give you a one trick pony. I mean, you can apply to every trading session,
518 01:46:01,710 --> 01:46:11,340 any asset, every asset class, it's not limited to any one particular approach to trading. You can apply it to different timeframes. You can apply it to whatever
519 01:46:11,340 --> 01:46:17,640 I'm not going to cosign crypto, it's the only thing I said I wasn't going to do because I don't have experience despite the fact that I have students that swear
520 01:46:17,640 --> 01:46:28,230 by it. I can't say hey, because they said so. But in disclosure, I say that, but I have no evidence to support that personally. So therefore, I can't say
521 01:46:28,230 --> 01:46:42,600 anything like that. But in stocks, yes. In futures, yes. Commodities. Yes. Bonds, yes. currency futures. Yes. index futures. Absolutely. So hopefully
522 01:46:42,600 --> 01:46:52,020 you've got something out of this today. Hopefully, I've built you up and gave you some things to think about and take inventory in your personal life and why
523 01:46:52,020 --> 01:47:00,120 are you trading? And what is your success for? It's just for you. Don't be surprised why it's so hard. Until next time,
