Trading Challenge – Update..

September 23rd, 2008 by 4Quan

Last Thursday and Friday I was just slightly unprofitable so I fasted on both days.  Lucky me.

The market is very turbulent at present and in a state that makes it extremely difficult to trade profitably so I have abandoned my challenge until market conditions get back to some sort of normality.

Does anyone have any idea when that may be?

Trading Challenge

Hello world, I’d like to share this journey with you.

I am challenging myself to finish each trading day (ASX S&P 200) in profit.  If I fail to achieve this then I will not eat for that day.

I am in need of a behavioral shift.  I have been paper trading the Australian S&P 200 and the US S&P 500 Index for the past month and have had very little success.  I am sure that my lack of success is related to not following my trading strategy (this strategy is fluent, meaning it changes as I learn new stuff) and not truly believing that I am worthy of abundance-wealth.

Worthy of you say, yes worthy of.  Part of my personal development journey has unearthed some interesting things.  One is the realisation and acceptance that I am my worst enemy.  How can we achieve anything in life if we do not in fact believe that we can or that we are worthy of success?

I believe that the world is full of abundance and we can achieve anything providing our why is big enough.

So my objectives are to:

  1. To trade profitably every day
    The link between outcome and food is to help build up my why.  One of my mentors says that when the why is big enough change happens.
  2. Discover my path to Abundance (mental and spiritual)
    During this challenge I will also be looking at how I can improve, and change if need be, my mental thinking as it relates to financial wealth.
  3. Write in Journal Daily
    An excellent way to record your thoughts.  I will use this to positively affirm myself helping to change sub conscience thinking and beliefs that I may not be aware of.

This challenge will run from Thursday, 18 September to 1 October 2008.

I will journal my efforts and results daily but will only post twice a week, Tuesday and Thursday.

So until next time…

Mark

Human Development – Mental

One of the first commitments my wife and I made to each other when we got engaged was a continued personal growth journey for the life of our relationship.  We have been married for approx 18 months and to date we have honored that commitment.

Human development is important because it helps to facilitate personal growth.

Pam and I have done many courses, have consulted many people on the subject but no single person has had a greater impact on our journey than Dr John Demartini.  His principle teachings and philosophy rings true to us.

When you develop self, you need to ensure that you are actually ready for growth.  What I mean is that if you have any issues, emotional baggage that may be holding you down, it may be a weight that you will need to let go of in order to grow.

I believe each and every one of us has emotional baggage/scars that affect decisions that we make in life.  I have yet to meet a person that can actually say that they do not.  We are very sensitive creatures that bruise easily but at the same time are very resilient and capable of great strength.

A technique that has greatly assisted us is the Demartini Method (The Collapse Process).  This method takes you through steps that enable you to see that for every perceived negative that happened in your life there has been a corresponding positive that we were not aware of.  This technique allows you to appreciate your experience so that it no longer has a negative charge in your life.

The method takes you through a series of questions designed to help you to see both sides of the coin, good and bad, so that you feel grateful for the experience and have nothing but love for the person that is associated with the feeling/charge. This basically sets you free from the charge.

Pam and I continue to collapse charges on a regular basis.  Some are done simply whilst others are more involved.

To master the use of your mind you will need the development of mental congruence.  Incongruent thoughts concerning the past and future, outside (other) and inside (self) will need to become integrated.  The Demartini Method was designed for this purpose.
