You’ve got to plan your week in advance. - [18:03] Forget the things that you want to get done. Write down the actual things that you need to do. - [18:25] If you’re not consistent in putting profit from the markets yet, you can’t rely on trading as an income. - [20:45] It’s about finding the right mentor that can teach you about the right strategy and how to intertwine that with your lifestyle and your habits. - [31:06] Even if you’ve been a learning forex trader for like 5 to 6 years, the moment that you go into a prop firm challenge, it’s completely different psychology. - [32:07] Funding is one big thing. You’ve got to fail the challenges to go through that learning process so you can then give advice to other people later on. - [32:17] Before you go for funding, make sure you’ve got at least 3 months of consistent, live trading results in a small personal account. - [32:26] When you’re doing the challenge, make sure that you’re taking only "on plan" trades. - [32:38] When you are in a funding challenge, that’s not a normal trading because in a real-life scenario you don’t have a time limit. - [34:15] The way that you really fix your mindset is by nailing down your routines. - [57:38] It doesn’t matter how many trades you take in a week, it’s how much profit you make at the end of the month.
