Silence Is Strength
"Silence is a lesson learned from the many sufferings of life."
— Seneca, Thyestes
Today's meditation is definitely something that I feel can be compared to trading.
You have plenty of people on social media, telling you what you should be trading and posting tips and generally getting things wrong!
Some people are wanting to become the centre of attention in a group chat and to be able to look cool, but it can certainly backfire, with their comments coming back to bite them!
The American author Robert Greene wrote; "The more you say, the more likely you are to say something foolish"
As traders, we just get on with the job in hand and ensure that we stick to the rules/criteria for our strategies and leave all the noise to those who are out to try and impress others or even suck them in to becoming paid monthly subscribers to tipping and/or trading groups. Don't fall for it!
Here at TTM, you are never charged a penny and there are videos and channels for various strategies across a whole range of sports. You are in the right place to learn and grow on your trading journey 100%.
I love the last line of today's meditation and I quote; "Silence is a way to build strength and self-sufficiency."
The more that we practice, we develop a better understanding of our strategies, which in turn breeds confidence and consistency from our trading.
So as long as you are prepared to put in the hard work and stick to your rules, you will become stronger. Forget the noise and distractions of others. Quietly develop and grow and you will find that "silence is strength."
