When an archer is shooting for nothing . . . he has all his skill.
If he shoots for a brass buckle . . . he is already nervous.
If he shoots for a prize of gold . . . he goes blind;
or sees two targets . . . he is out of his mind!
His skill has not changed. But the prize . . . divides him. He cares.
He thinks more of winning than of shooting . . .
and the need to win drains him of power.
– Chuang Tzu, 400 B.C..

Some things never changed, for everything else there is MC.

“Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, and intelligent execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives - choice, not chance, determines your destiny.”
― Aristotle

"A gem cannot be polished without friction, nor a man perfected without trials."
― Lucius Annaeus Seneca

“I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”
- Michael Jordan

"Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm."
- Sir Winston Churchill

" I think and think for months and years. Ninety-nine times, the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am right."
- Albert Einstein

"never let the body tell the mind what to do."

in context
"Now if you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing. You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up. It is always tired morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired. When you were younger the mind could make you dance all night, and the body was never tired...You've always got to make the mind take over and keep going."
General Patton

These are some of the quotes I have stuck on my wall;



“If I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.”
- Gandhi

“I fear not the man who has practised 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practised one kick 10,000 times.”
- Bruce Lee

And so you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further. With your mind power, your determination, your instinct, and the experience as well, you can fly very high.
- Ayrton Senna

“It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.”
- E. E. Cummings

“The content of your character is your choice. Day by day, what you choose, what you think and what you do is who you become.”
- Heraclitus

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
---- Albert Einstein

He who hesitates is poor.
--- Mel Brooks

To risk nothing, is to risk everything.
--- Plato

The quotes above are written into my trading journal. And Einstein's photo is in front of me below my trading monitors.
