Staying Focused About Hard Work

I have to say that possessing a lot of self-confidence really lifts a huge burden off my shoulders.  

It used to be pretty bad for me because I would want to give up after putting some time into something and then go after keeping myself entertained ideally forever! I was such a junkie and a mess with not wanting to put in the hard work. 

I've come a long way and it's mainly from having found personal confidence. This isn't something that someone showed me either. It just came along all of a sudden after willing myself to stay positive and confident from putting in the work for a while. 

I believe that I'm seriously meant to be a software engineer for my blue collar job. I would like to retire from this job ASAP from managing my trades and investments well enough eventually. It might take longer than I expect it to, but I'm not fretting about it anymore. 

Tolerating Productive Schedule

Yesterday, I played catch up with getting my personal errands done while I had plenty of energy to do it since I was off work. It seems to have worked out pretty nicely with finishing up on things that I had in mind. 

I would like to do this type of work on a daily basis. Basically, I would like to get my trades and investments out of the way along with personal maintenance on anything and then enjoy anything for the remainder of the night. I guess I can switch it up with doing whichever first on a daily basis. 

I think it's starting to make sense with how I'm directing myself, but Jesus Christ does happily serve to be my main inspiration from just believing what he did for me on the cross!  

Happy With Newly Refined Trading Technique

I was digging through some of my past indicators and looking for ways to improve my trading entries. It dawned on me to look at my charts with what I already have there, since I'm satisfied with the core trading system I have developed. To take it to the next level, I now understand how my system is displaying the counter trend. The counter trend is pretty much a short term and noticeable movement that opposes the main trend. 

My overview chart is on the weekly timeframe and entry is on the 4 hour which makes my system out to be a decent swing trading method that I won't ever share with you! The daily chart is something I newly discovered could be easily used to indicate if counter trends will be profitable for me. Overall, sticking to the main trend is the best way to make reliable and consistent profit. It's just cooler to add making money off of counter trends too just because you can! 

Reviewing My Successful Trading Approach

I have come up with three R's to my personal approach of doing well with trading. They are rinse, repeat, and refine. 

After making a successful trade, it's basically preparing yourself for the next one. If you're interested in making money, then more often than not, you will repeat what you thought was working. Sometimes, this approach will not work and cause you to lose a trade which is the most difficult part to deal with in my three step approach. Therefore, you refine your technique by going over it and reviewing your past trades while backtesting mentally with help of past charts or however you want to do it. You then look to make another successful trade and keep this cycle going! 

Warren Buffet said that it doesn't have to get complicated with the art of making money. I'm just glad this is starting to work out for me. 

Making Another Attempt

Yesterday, my evening didn't go so well for me after eating dinner. The first action on my mind was to go take a shower like how I laid out my plan, but I just sat there with my mom and went nowhere. I was just frozen and then I was distracted and started snacking on way too many unhealthy pretzels. It was so odd and I'm awake now to be able to describe but yesterday, I was just frozen and not going anywhere.

To fix this, I'm going to adjust my daily plan again, by going straight to working on my investments and trades after having dinner. Afterwards, I'll take a shower and then finish up on my personal maintenance. It looks like I'm just naturally motivated to put myself to work with making money on passive income, so I'll just let myself flow into it to pick up some initial momentum that I need.  

Staying Dedicated at Work

By the time this post rolls around, I will probably have written a lot more of these personal entries. This is really fun and honestly, I'm benefiting by being able to feel relaxed from doing this type of activity. Some people I used to know are pretty dumb because they thought I was trying to stalk them with messages. These don't really take me that long to write and they were simply just being stupid and thinking crazy the whole time. It is what it is and their unhappiness isn't really my fault because I pride myself in being easy to work with. You can take this statement to the bank!

I was about using them for personal satisfaction by trying to convince them that my ways are better than theirs and then trounce all over them from the comfort of staring at my funny text anywhere I can see it! I had a hard time doing this to give myself good laughs but I figure that I succeeded in being able to do whatever I want to them because they ended up ignoring my harmless taunts and still do to this day. They literally can't see me and I'm mentally picturing John Cena waving his hand over his face like the taunt he does to his opponents. 

Overall, it's just dumb to stay angry in general. It's better to work on a good solution and improve as a person while making yourself stay happy. With the aggression and attention to detail that I naturally possess underneath when it regards these things, those dumb folks were actually never a good match for me. 

Sticking to Daily Routine

Currently, I'm having trouble staying awake long enough after I'm done with dinner. The way I see myself doing this is to start small and then stay consistent with it until it becomes like second nature to me. Once that happens, I'll be ready to try on another thing and then go from there again. 

My tasks pretty much begin after having dinner. I'm going to try to take a shower, manage trades and investments, and lastly do personal maintenance things before moving on to anything else however long I can stay awake. I will also be listening to some of the relaxing music that keeps me up too. I want to see how this works out for me. 

Exciting Prospect With Investments

I think there's a lot of money to be made now with investing in cryptocurrency. They are trading like crazy and have been increasing in profit by a lot. The potential ROI for them is a lot to behold. I'm going to start trying to invest in them a little more now. I'm still sticking to the traditional buy and sell approach on them, along with stocks. 

The only thing that I'm comfortable with going either long or short is in the Forex market. I'm using leverage with a fair broker and still picking up on a comfortable approach to make money. It is less stressful to keep it hands off as possible for me and it's the style I prefer to take for the rest of my life. This will just give me the means to do other fun activities with the lovely future wife someday. 

I'm starting to close in with making good profit from all this effort I've been putting in naturally. This is what I have been looking to do all my life, and it finally connected for me. I feel blessed by the Lord to have this opportunity. 

Understanding the Craziness Now

From having lacked a lot of confidence, I couldn't work my personal magic on a group of imbeciles [that old caregroup] to get what I wanted from them. I was just using them in the first place and was never aware of it. I was so selfish about it and kept on denying it to myself while arguing with them [that old caregroup] that I was a holy and cool person! 

I never needed them [that old caregroup and Crazy Lee] in the first place and they were being stupid to begin with, so this whole situation was already a lost cause after taking away its humble beginnings. It's like going through a massive breakup and it left me feeling angry for years and bent towards getting back at them while continuously firing harmless insults that annoyed them to the point of going crazy that they decided to cut me off.

I actually know how to deal with all of this in my own quirky way, while having the brain cells for it already. I am a 4.0 student all the way from elementary to grad school, even though I was a lazy and weird kid who situated himself into being a lost cause so I was also being dumb. 

There's no need for me to get upset by all of this anymore. It's time to make a personal change and become better using the best way possible. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not be in want- Psalm 23:1. 

I basically know how to fight back and go back to using them for my personal purposes of whatever, even if it's for revenge. Yet, I want to be on the Lord's side and am very driven and inspired while humbled constantly at the same time from believing what Jesus did for me at the cross! It speaks unspeakable joy to me. 

I'm going to have to maintain a spiritual balance and walk in the light of God's Word in acceptance. An honest answer given is like a kiss on the lips- Proverbs 24:26.   

Interesting Thoughts

I'm going to have to start getting more practical about doing things that I'll be very comfortable about obtaining. It looks like a coworker is someone I'm very interested in and it seems like she enjoys being cheeky about flirting with me sometimes in a subtle manner. I don't know if she likes behaving that way in general with people or there's really some sort of interest she has in me. 

I'm not interested in finding out right now unless I get lucky with my financial situation. 

It's because the business I'm at working with her has family ties and they would be against this type of relationship. I would rather avoid the drama it will cause and willing to put above making a comfortable living rather than chasing after her right now. I'll just stick to dating anyone I'm interested in outside the work environment. I don't want to involve myself in a cover-up with my coworker either and willing to go the extra mile to find someone that will just comfortably fit into everything for me. I will start getting more serious about dating once I have landed my own place and don't have to deal with my overbearing mom anymore which has been getting so annoying! 

Adjusting to Managing Time Better

Yesterday, I put in the effort to stay awake and barely finish my investments while sleepy in bed after dinner. I ended up slowing down right after having a cup of coffee mixed in with some honey. It didn't work in keeping me up, as it took me a half hour to finish it. 

This time I'm going to try listening to that growth hormone promoting sound I purchased a while ago. I don't know if it really works, but it does give off this productive and relaxed feeling at the same time while listening to it. It seems to keep me going more actively. 

For the time being, I just want to get my trading and investments and then personal maintenance out of the way first on a daily basis before doing anything else on workday evenings. If I can start doing this regularly, then I think it will be the start of a foundation that I can always be happy with. 

Applying Better Discipline

It looks like when I get home, I should be looking to eat dinner and take care of my bare minimums before relaxing to do anything I want. Last night, watching a TV show and playing with an app on my phone had me wasting quite a bit of precious time for preparation. I could improve in this area and keep it going in a consistent manner. This means that I'm going to have to be much more mindful about it. 

I'm going to start out with doing the smallest amount I can in a consistent fashion and reward myself. Shortly afterwards, I can start adding on other things to become more productive. Basically, after having dinner, I just want to get my trading and investments out of the way first and then personal maintenance before doing anything else next. I'll see if I can do this for about a couple weeks first before trying to add on a work out routine. 

Coming Up With Working Trading Strategy

For the Forex market, I'm back to tweaking my style again but this time I'm heavily relying on the weekly chart for the general outlook of which direction I should trade. I also have a setting that I look for and makes me satisfied with going either direction. 

This setup is actually allowing me to let my big winners keep on running and locking in more profit. My entry point is coming from the 4-hour charts. This allows me to not have to constantly monitor all my trades and let the market adjust to its own volatility. It's starting to turn into a pretty routine and easy setup for trades I'm looking for. I'm calculating my potential risk from choosing a stop loss and the amount of potential profit before I enter each trade. 

Overall, this system is starting to cater to my own interests and it's only a matter of time before I start collecting bigger profit on a normal basis and enjoy freedom to not have to work a traditional job. 

Embracing Failure and then Going For Improvement

It looks like I'm starting to get pretty good about persisting and keeping a positive attitude about it. It's paying off more or less while making things better! I guess it's about maintaining good focus and trying to do a good job with something. This is what it's really about, so you can get paid at your job.

Maintaining concentration while having enjoyment with work is such a blessing. These are the types of people you want to be around and allow the less happier ones to eventually move on to something else that's better. Even if people become dumb with you like I have faced several times from being so selfish with some of them, there's really no need to stay bothered about it and to just move on to something better. 

It's totally a good thing and nothing to stay bothered about because you didn't get something your way that time. Maybe, it will turn out better for the next time even though there's some uncertainty. I mean as long as you have a mind that's capable of analyzing enough and put into action your well-intended plan then it should come to fruition eventually. 

Honest Assessment of Self in Dealing With Others

It looks like I'm pretty level-headed these days. I trust upon the Lord for all my understanding and inspiration to keep on living a just life for Him from just simply loving and believing what Christ did for me on the cross. I also think it's stupid to feel angry or upset about something unless like a loved one passed away, then it's a good time to let out a lot of tears! 

I was stupid around dumb people because I lacked a lot of self-confidence and positivity to put in the hard work to figure out why they were being so crazy and a bunch of deadbeats around me. 

It really doesn't matter to me anymore because I never needed them [you guys] in the first place and was only about using them [you guys] to be exact. 

I was very selfish about wanting their [all your guys'] company because I didn't know who else to turn to back then. I didn't know that I could go reach out to strangers in other places and find exciting things to do while becoming friends with them. I was being dumb and crazy about hanging onto something that didn't matter so much because I lacked the coping skills for it. 

Things have changed for me and it's been turning around for the better ever since this positive emotion started becoming the dominant one in my life. 

Getting back to how to deal with those bad people [you guys] from my past, it's pretty much the same solution for most of my bad experiences. Lastly, if you guys want proof of all your faults against me, just let me know whenever and I'll be happy to show-and-tell and even in front of any judge who I'll try to make laugh really hard at you guys and so badly and endlessly! 

It's about staying positive, self-confident, and working hard towards leading an average life I can stay happy about. I give with everything I can all the glory from the fruits of my labor to the Lord! Just watch me try so hard now for Jesus. I'll get there and never be bothered by anything bad you guys try to do to me now as a whole. I'm also in that Race now with putting forth all my effort and never giving up, while staying happy through it all! 

Keeping It Honest

Staying honest takes a lot of hard work! Combining it up with a positive attitude and a ton of self-confidence, it's a lot easier to stay happy about it if being a good moral person is of value to you. I guess it just comes down to having a good comfort level and being smart about things like checking up on their background and how others would review them. Sometimes, you can just have a good feeling about something because you just connect so well.

From lacking a lot of self-confidence back in the day, I really affected a lot of stupid people. Honestly, I was dumb about being paranoid over cops coming into my vicinity. If it's my time to go because a crazy cop ends up framing me for something that I have no control over preventing, then I'll be happy to make peace with God now and let my life on Earth pass by, as sad as that may seem. Maybe, I'll still go out fighting if I can with all my might or die trying. 

A friend I used to hang around with is pretty much a dumb egomaniac in that he thinks he's all that while being jealous sometimes over people not worthy enough getting luckier than him. He is also a sensitive person and responds to a lot of these situations that paint him in a bad light by running away and hiding from others. He's not that great of a person, but still tries to put on a good show. The only way for me to get to this guy is for me to get rich and then call it average in front of his face, while explaining my philosophy. He'll have plenty of years to regret how dumb he was later or keep on improving upon his perspective on life. He's currently a black sheep and not doing enough to get by as an average person while displaying some emotional problems and antisocial behavior. I don't need him for anything to be honest and never really did but just waste my time hanging out with him because I used to be a lot dumber!  

Staying Focused

I'm starting to figure that throughout my normal work hours, I shouldn't really be letting my mind wander into other fun places except for the ones that would be very useful to me in general. With this being said, I have it all laid out with checking my emails, checking up on stocks and trades, writing on this blog and other sites, and doing work. This will make it a nice work session for me then every day.  

It's pretty much stupid to be angry or upset about anything and how there's really no need to. No matter what the circumstances are, there's no need to let anything get to you. Maybe temporarily it can stun or affect you, but there shouldn't really be something you have to make a big fuss about all the time. 

Keeping Up to Date

It looks like the way I want to do things now is a pretty set routine to keep myself happy. It makes a lot of sense for me to keep personal maintenance. 

I'd like to just get a few personal things done at the bare minimum after having dinner before I do anything else. What I do is of course subjected to change at any time, but for the time being these are the three things I want to maintain:

Investing and Trading

It looks like I'm dabbling into stocks little by little while tweaking my Forex trading skills on a daily basis. This is just happening naturally for me. I'm seeing growth on my portfolio regularly from just contributing funds and letting the stocks accumulate profit. For Forex, I don't really have that much invested in it but I am overtrading it in terms of percentage. I'm trying to still learn a profitable style that I could just put on repeat regularly while being comfortable with the same software tools that I have decided to adopt permanently. The principle that I'm using is the numbers game of high frequency trading while investing the minimal amount as possible to account for the high percentage of losses that I'm expecting in my Forex trades for a while. 

Personal Hygiene

It's important that I should go to bed while feeling clean and since I can't seem to keep myself up to workout, I might as well just get this out of the way before I pass out for the entire night and risk stinking up my bed while having to do regular laundry that could have been avoided from playing it safer. I do use hair loss prevention products and want to brush my teeth so all of this requires me to apply it twice a day. I have chosen to do both once in the morning or afternoon and then at night.

Personal Maintenance

I'm just thinking about taking care of bills and going out to shop for things that I feel like using. I don't really want to leave all of this hanging from having been distracted by something. It would be better to just put in the little effort to get these small hassles out of the way. 

Afterwards, it's time to relax and do anything whether it be reading a book, schedule something with friends, trying to purchase an item, working out, or watching something entertaining before my night is up. What's also interesting is that from Friday to Sunday, I can afford to lay off of focusing on my investments and running trades. 

Staying Focused on Main Task at Hand

I'm starting to realize that my mind likes to run off and think about random things that make me feel good all the time! I believe this is really a normal thing and something I really should learn to manage well so that I will stay a pro at self-discipline no matter what's bugging me at the moment. 

From doing a little reading, it does make sense to pay attention underneath to your feelings and understand where it's coming from and what you could do about it to improve yourself. From being a Christian, I believe that relying on the Lord's sovereign rule over my heart from having bought the price of my sins at the cross extends to everything going on in my life. There's the human thinking way of relying on self versus relying on the Lord for strength! I prefer the latter. 

I don't have a calling to serve in the ministry as a pastor or Bible teacher of any sort, as it would feel awkward to me. I feel happy about living an average life and would love to stay there and give all the glory to the Lord. My idea of an average man's life may be considered pretty high standard, but it's just normal to me. 

The average man's life to me is owning a nice home, being a millionaire, having a family with a good wife and kids, physically in good shape, and content in a well-rounded fashion. There's absolutely nothing wrong about living below this standard as long as the man's happy! If he's not, then he's just being dumb. Therefore, it shouldn't be hard to realize that working hard and obtaining this average man's life would be more than sufficient enough for me to glorify the Lord. 

Running With Personal Way of Doing Things

I think I'm just going to focus on work at work for the most part and then mix it up with reading personal emails and writing these posts and also working on my trades and investments. This is how I'm going to function on a daily basis and think it's enough to keep me running smoothly for the foreseeable future. 

At home, I'm planning to work out seriously on the weekends since I'll have the most time then from being off work. I'll just need to put in one more workout on work nights to keep it three times a week, which would be great! It's not as hard as I used to think.

The last thing on my main agenda that I still want to figure out is doing some delicious cooking in a short time frame. I don't really need to go all out and be extra fancy, but just have some sort of consistency with keeping my plates healthy and quite tasty! Overall, it looks like I'm getting this all sorted out and will eventually have room to enjoy life with a significant other.
