I've had enough of Forex!

That's the way I feel right now. I'm pissed off and feel like quitting. The beginning of the month was going great and then the last week and a half or so has been dismal. We're down again to where we were a few weeks ago. It just feels like every trade I put on loses right now.

But I know that this like everything else is a process. A process that requires stickability. A process that requires learning. A process that requires guts.

It looks like it's easy you see. When we listen to those who've been at it a while and they're have success and they're doing it a making it work, we think that we can too - right from the start! What we don't realise (even though we think we do) is that it really does take time and learning. It's like an apprenticeship and none of those who are now successful knew success right from the start.

Nothing worth doing, will give success right from the start. There is always the learning process. Always the failures. The time where it feels like it's not working and not worth it. The time when you want to quit. That is when we mustn't quit!

Because that's why not everyone does this. That's why so many fail or quit. Because it looked like it was easy and then it wasn't and we think it's just us. That we're unique in our failure. That we're defective so we quit, not realising that it's part of the journey.

So, I'm not quitting even tho I feel like I've had enough right now. I feel like sitting and crying and feeling sorry for myself - but I'm not.

I know what I have to do - that I have to spend more time learning, more time in the trading room so that I can master my chosen trades and learn what I need to learn to be successful. We can all learn anything - anything we put our minds to. Anything we really commit to. So that's what I will do. I'll be back!
