≈ Rule yourself. ≈
We are always searching for meaning in what we do. From the little things to life itself. Meaning is a basic instinct for us. Its pursuit is one of the highest grounds we can achieve during our lifespan. “I’ve lived a life that’s full” is what we want to say when we get to the end.
According to Dr. Jordan Peterson, the act of spontaneously admiring someone is the manifestation of the instinct for meaning. That is precisely why people admire sports figures so much. They play out the drama of attaining the goal backed up by the pursuit of both physical and psychological perfection. We admire discipline and perseverance, naturally transposing this model to something applicable in our own lives.
This is why it is so important to have mentors. They are to trading and investing what sports figures are to sports. We admire their psychological and emotional control when approaching the markets; serenity and discipline, naturally transposing this model to something applicable to us. Once we get momentum rolling and we become successful traders ourselves, we become a “sports figure”, inspiring others with our path in life and trading.
It’s what you do in the darkness that puts you in the light.
