This Is What We're Here For
"Why then are we offended? Why do we complain? This is what we're here for."
— Seneca, On Providence
Today's meditation really hits home and is definitely something to fall back on, if you are having a tough day!
We need to stay strong on those tough days when it seems that the markets are totally against us! The markets are neutral of course, but they will also kick your ass if you let them! You have to stick to your rules/criteria for your strategies 100% of the time and be ready to bail in a heartbeat, to protect your bank when trades are going against you. It's very easy when trades are going just as you expect them to; the hard part is when they are going against you, so you have to be mentally strong enough, to be able to cut and run on those occasions!
You haven't put in all this hard work, to stray from your rules/criteria if things start to go against you!
Stick with it; you've got this; you have proved that you can do it, from previous results.
Bad days will happen, but "This is what we're here for"
Like the last line of today's meditation says; "Just something to keep in mind if things get tough"
