I was reminded of an especially inspiring video this morning and I thought it might be cool to start a thread on the topic. How about people sharing their favorite trading/vocation/life inspriational/motivational videos, quotes, etc.? This game is not easy and in my personal opinion, persistence is key.

So - to start it off:

YouTube - Michael Jordan 'Maybe It's My Fault' Commercial


And credit to whom credit is due - I found this for the first time on Don Miller's original blog ( Don Miller Trading Journal)

DTF, great idea for a thread!

Love this video. I aspire to trade like this guy jumps - in the present moment, unafraid of uncertainty. Bonus points for being filmed in my hometown.

This video is by an author that wrote a book called "Start with Why". The book is about leaders that inspire and why some companies excell and others don't.

I felt that his discussion about What, How and Why related to trading because making money is a result of being successful in trading, but not the "Why" we trade. I always focus on the money and I fail. If I can change my thinking to focus on the other aspects trading can provide such as freedom, no day job, no boss, no company politics I may be able to shift my results. Enjoy.

The video below is from an article from ROAR
https://roarmag.org/essays/we-need-a-revolution-talita-soares/

I think whoever added the music should have a quiet word with themselves,
but not with standing that here's Talita Soares from Brazil, an18 year old student of Tamera's peace education.
