So although this week was a small win points wise, those meagre points conceal a much bigger win than money itself. One day this week I traded the best I have ever traded. I followed my strategy to the letter, I was patient, composed and calculated, and I felt that for just that brief moment, finally I had fulfilled my potential and I was the trader I know I can be. It felt amazing. Even after reviewing my morning and acknowledging the session was a loser, I didn't care because it is not about the destination, it is about the journey. Process over results. It's very similar to when you play golf and you might be a high handicapper or a lower handicapper, but nevertheless, you hit that one beautiful smooth soaring shot that you never even felt come off of the club face. In that instant you know. You know that the golfer you so desperately want to be, the golfer you could be lives within you. The shot is proof. This session was that golf shot. It was my proof.
