81 21
Drunk Monkey 2.1 82 00:01:39,870 ~-~-> 00:01:42,570
Drunk Monkey 1.1 83 the reason why you're not going to see my journal because I

157 40
Drunk Monkey 2.1 158 00:03:01,050 ~-~-> 00:03:05,010
Drunk Monkey 1.1 159 entries look like I sit down and I usually doodle something.

180
181 46
Drunk Monkey 2.1 182 00:03:28,050 ~-~-> 00:03:31,740
Drunk Monkey 1.1 183 martial arts centering, but there's usually some kind of a

216
217 55
Drunk Monkey 2.1 218 00:04:05,550 ~-~-> 00:04:09,390
Drunk Monkey 1.1 219 make that public. These are personal things that are on my
220
221 56
Drunk Monkey 2.1 222 00:04:09,390 ~-~-> 00:04:13,080
Drunk Monkey 1.1 223 mind. And I do a wellness in focus things I'm going to be

Drunk Monkey 2.1 230 00:04:18,090 ~-~-> 00:04:20,760
Drunk Monkey 1.1 231 week and keeping them in focus. And then I have the weekly
232
233 59
Drunk Monkey 2.1 234 00:04:20,760 ~-~-> 00:04:23,430
Drunk Monkey 1.1 235 calendar, big rocks, which is basically the events I'm

240
241 61
Drunk Monkey 2.1 242 00:04:27,090 ~-~-> 00:04:31,800
Drunk Monkey 1.1 243 And then I go up here and I record what my expectations are
244
245 62
Drunk Monkey 2.1 246 00:04:31,800 ~-~-> 00:04:34,140
Drunk Monkey 1.1 247 what I'm expecting to see things that are going to filter
248
249 63
Drunk Monkey 2.1 250 00:04:34,950 ~-~-> 00:04:38,370
Drunk Monkey 1.1 251 for my trade decisions. And I try to keep them really short
252
253 64
Drunk Monkey 2.1 254 00:04:38,370 ~-~-> 00:04:40,410
Drunk Monkey 1.1 255 and sweet and try not to have a whole lot of things and
256
257 65
Drunk Monkey 2.1 258 00:04:40,410 ~-~-> 00:04:44,010
Drunk Monkey 1.1 259 moving parts, and I put in something that would be a filter
260
261 66
Drunk Monkey 2.1 262 00:04:44,190 ~-~-> 00:04:47,130
Drunk Monkey 1.1 263 that would keep me from either participating again, or
264
265 67
Drunk Monkey 2.1 266 00:04:47,130 ~-~-> 00:04:51,390
Drunk Monkey 1.1 267 engaging or what it would take for me to change my mind and
