Quotes From the Greatest NBA Player – 100% Applicable to Trading

The following is something I posted last year. Read it, study it, go over it 100x. If you think it’s the stupid useless “trading systems” and the “analytical abilities” and the high IQs which bring you success in trading, then you are GUARANTEEING yourself that you will fail. The quotes below, IF AND ONLY IF you TRULY make them part of your life and your belief system, are why you will succeed.

Wonder how many people who read this will actually follow thru on what I just wrote?:

Below are quotes from the greatest basketball player of all-time, possibly the greatest team sport athlete of all-time. At the height of his dominance, Michael Jordan’s teammates were in awe, because everyday he was still the first guy to practice and the last one to leave. And he viewed practice very seriously, because it is in the practice (preparation) that he knew would lead to the outcomes (performance) which he desired. The hard work, and the consistency of it, was just part of his life.
