Stop Caring What People Think
"I'm constantly amazed by how easily we love ourselves above all others, yet we put more stock in the opinions of others than in our own estimation of self. . . . How much credence we give to the opinions our peers have of us and how little to our very own!"
— Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
Another topic to get stuck into with today's meditation!
Although we can control our own opinions, we cannot control the opinions of others, so why worry about things that are out of our control?
The last paragraph of today's meditation is a great message for us all and I quote; "Don't spend much time thinking about what other people think. Think about what you think. Think instead about the results, about the impact, about whether it is the right thing to do."
In a trading sense, stick to the strategies that work for you and don't worry in the slightest what other people think, because this will have no bearing on your trading journey.
The only thing that matters is you and you alone. So if you get in the habit of doing the right things day in day out, you are consistently improving and gaining confidence, as you strive to become the best trader that you can possibly be!
Remember, it is all about you; so feel good about yourself and the amazing job that you are doing!
