Know why you want to trade

The above subject is a common advise given by many, do I have the answer, I asked myself?

There are many things in life that requires courage to do.  Trading for a living is a big decision for me, was it foolish courage?  Courage is a tricky thing, should we do what others want us to do, or should we do what others think that we should do?   A lot of times in our life, we do things that we are not even sure what we are doing for.  It is important that we know why we want to do, and what we want to be.  If there is a real reason to do something that is important, we do it for honor, and we do it because it is worthwhile.

If we do it for the right purpose and die for trying, we have both honor and courage.  Trading is tough and many of us may feel demoralized along the journey.  As I have learnt from the movie "The Blind Side" - Hope for the courage and try for honor.

Besides courage, one needs passion to make it in trading. No passion, no persistence. No persistence, no breakthroughs.

Too many people trade merely for the money. And if money is what motivates you, it is difficult to keep up the going when the going gets tough.
