Cut The Strings That Pull Your Mind
"Understand at last that you have something in you more powerful and divine than what causes the bodily passions and pulls you like a mere puppet. What thoughts now occupy my mind? Is it not fear, suspicion, desire, or something like that?"
— Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
So if we relate this one to trading, there are quite a few salesmen/tipsters etc. etc. out there, who are vying for a share of your wallet! A few names spring to mind immediately and I won't mention any of them here! They are selling us the next best thing since sliced bread and all for an unbelievable bargain price! Most of it is recycled at best and not worth a carrot! Some are charging a monthly fee, just for being a part of their community! At TTM we believe that our members "ARE" the community and we will never charge anybody to be a part of it, ever! Yes, there are add ons such as Sports IQ, but they are not essential to become a part of the TTM family, even though they can be very beneficial of course. Concentrate on your own strategies that you have come across through TTM that work for you, or maybe you've developed one or two yourself. If we pay attention to our own strategies, we then take ownership of our trades and we are not reliant on these shysters who are taking people for a ride! How many times have we seen in the groups here on TTM, people saying that they've paid out fortunes for the promise of success and their only wish is that they'd found out about TTM earlier! Yes it means we need to work hard, have the correct mindset/mentality, be patient, disciplined and practice time and time again to execute our trades to our advantage. Rinse and repeat every time we trade, so we get to know our strategies inside out and know exactly how to adapt swiftly, to any scenario that may appear during a trade. I would much rather have the satisfaction of putting in the hard work, than be jerked about on a string! "Cut the strings that pull your mind" and stay focused 100% on what you can achieve. This way we shall reap the rewards and become better, more confident traders, all pulling together in one totally free trading community. Remember at TTM, we are all trading the market; so let's do it!
