The Disciplined Super Trader.
What Exactly IS Discipline?

Discipline is a HABIT!
All ‘Super Traders’ have self discipline. Without discipline you cannot achieve success, in any field.
I will say this again;

---

“WITHOUT DISCIPLINE YOU CANNOT ACHIEVE SUCCESS, IN ANY FIELD.”

---

Having this ability to exert self discipline AT WILL on one’s self is one of the master keys to your success.
Discipline is a mix of Will Power, Persistence & Repetition; having the conviction to do what you must do whether you feel/want to do it or not.

The only difference in discipline between the 95-5; (95% of ordinary (Losing) day traders & the 5% of winning day traders is that if assumed that they both know what they should be doing to achieve consistent success; then only ‘Super Traders’ have the Will & Conviction to do what needs to be done, Repeatedly to achieve this.

This is the price you’ll pay for your success. Your will to do, what you must do, whether you want to or not.
Every action of a S.T’s self discipline strengthens the Habit of his self discipline; his pattern of regular behaviour. Discipline is a HABIT!

The following is THE MOST critical point to remember.

2. “Any thought that is passed on to the subconscious often enough & convincingly enough is finally accepted.”

Alexander Haig (American General, b.1924)
4. “As long as you know what it is you desire, then by simply affirming that it is yours – firmly & positively, with no ifs, buts, or maybes over & over again, from the minute you arise in the morning until the time you go to sleep at night, & as many times during the day as your work or activities permit, you will be drawn to those people, places, & events that will bring your desires to you.”
Scott Reed (African-American author of poetry, essays, & satiric novels, b.1938)
5. “Declare your goals each day. Repeated declarations will lead to inner belief. If your inner self believes what you declare; you will eventually become the person you are committed to be.”

Now, knowingly he is the master & controller of his fear (his fear of failure).Now only a suppressed, contained & manageable level of fear exists, defined via his dominant masterpiece. Understand; Super Traders are Visionaries.”

Meditation Quotations.

Meditation Quotations. Downloadable Full PDF Version.

Below are listed several ‘Meditation’ quotations. I hope they will provide you with inspiration as they did me. Part of a series of FREE downloadable PDF’s; ‘Quotations for the Day Trader.’

My Personal Top 5 Meditation Quotes.

1. “Through meditation & by giving full attention to one thing at a time, we can learn to direct attention where we choose.”
Eknath Easwaran. (1910-1999, Indian-American professor, author)
2. “Your mind is your instrument. Learn to be its master & not its slave.”
Author Unknown.
3. “Meditation is not a means to an end. It is both the means & the end.”
Jiddu Krishnamurti. (1895-1986, Indian theosophist)
4. “Existence is not a problem to be solved; it is a mystery to be lived. A problem is something created by the mind; a mystery is something which is there, not created by the mind. A problem has ugliness in it, like disease. A mystery is beautiful. With a problem, immediately a fight arises. You have to solve it; something is wrong, you have to put it right; something is missing; you have to supply the missing link. With a mystery there is no question like that. The moon arises in the night…. It is not a problem, it is a mystery. You have to live with it. You have to dance with it. You have to sing with it, or you can be just silent with it. Something mysterious surrounds you.”
Osha. (Indian mystic & professor of philosopher1931 – 1990)
5. “If you want to connect with your friends more, try the internet. If you want to connect with yourself more, try meditation.”

Meditation For Traders – Pt2- How?
How Super Traders Meditate.

When The Surface Of A Lake Is Still, One Can See To The Very Bottom Very Clearly. This Is Impossible When The Surface Is Agitated By Wave. In The Same Way, When The Mind Is Still, With No Thoughts Of Desires, You Can See The “SELF.”

Swami Sivananda. (Indian Yoga master, Monk , 1887-1963)

---

How To Meditate – The internal concentration of the mind.

• Meditate to a regular schedule. Regulate the time, place & practice of your meditation.
  Regularity conditions the mind to slow down its activities with a minimum of delay.
• Best time to meditate; early dawn or dusk if feasible.

---

‘DAILY PRACTICE WILL SOON TURN INTO HABIT.’

---

1. 1st Concentrate.
The mental ability to concentrate is inherent in all; all of us have the ability to shut out thoughts.

2. Position Your Body.
Sit in a steady, comfortable cross-legged position. If this is uncomfortable, sit on a chair, both feet on the floor, hands resting gently on your thighs, neck erect but not tense.

3. Close Your Eyes.

4. Calming The Mind.
Now we must calm the mind. By turning your mind’s concentration inward, upon the self, you can deepen the experience sort, that of perfect concentration. This IS the state of meditation.

5. Focus.
Focus solely on your breathing. Through focusing on your breathing you forget all your concerns & enter the calming state you seek.

Master’s of Emotion – Declarations

‘Super Traders’ are the Masters & controllers of their Emotions. One of their techniques to obtain & maintain an edge in the trading arena is via the daily practice & use of Declarations.
Declarations are an OFFICIAL INTENTION to take all the necessary ACTIONS to make your future vision become reality.

IMPORTANT: Declarations are NOT affirmations! The difference is slight, but powerful.

---

AFFIRMATION: An affirmation is; ‘a positive statement asserting that a goal you wish to achieve is already happening as if it is true now.’
DECLARATION: A declaration is; ‘to state an official intention to undertake a particular course of action or adopt a particular status.’

---

Often we can affirm something that is NOT already happening & is NOT yet real. Our subconscious minds, our ‘inner self ’ will recognise this as a ‘trick’, as it is NOT yet true & react in a negative way.
Whereas, a declaration is saying, we have an INTENTION of doing or being something. This our inner self CAN ‘buy’, because we are not stating it is true now, but it’s your intention for the future.

2 VERY IMPORTANT WORDS:

OFFICIAL & ACTION!

A declaration ‘IS’ official. It is a formal statement into the universe & throughout your body.
A declaration ‘MUST’ be action orientated! You must take all the necessary actions to make your official intention a reality.

How?
Why?
Do

Probably 3 of the greatest words ever to frequent and grace the English Language.
How do ‘Super Traders’ capture large profits, and more importantly, hold onto them?
What is a Super Trader’s mind set? Why do ‘Super Traders’ trade in a cerebral calm under what seems enormous pressure, and panic to some?

The mass hysteria of the crowd, so often frequenting the day trading arena, the average trader depicted by and shining so brightly on every price bar.

What do ‘Super Traders’ do that is so alien to most ordinary traders, propelling them to the very top of their chosen profession, the most enthralling game ever to be created in the history of man kind?
There is a well known saying:

“You Must Be In The RIGHT PLACE
At The RIGHT TIME.”

This is a VERY Important statement that has been propagated for generations. But, Importantly, this is a flawed statement in the context of a ‘Super Trader’.
Below is a sentence that has enormous consequences and is transformational if you ‘get it’ and really take on board it’s ramifications and consequence in it’s ‘being.’ Memorise this statement.

---

“YOU MUST BE THE RIGHT PERSON, In The RIGHT PLACE At The RIGHT TIME!”

---

The above sentence is simple, yet profound. ‘Super Traders’ have learned to become what they must become in order to think and act a certain way.
To gain a deeper understanding as to how a ‘‘Super Trader’ Thinks And Acts This Certain Way’,,,,,,and yes, it is a learned skill……..read more
