Great performances come from being able to rebound quickly and forget about mistakes. Great performance comes from pushing yourself and trying to overcome limitations. Staying in the safe zone becomes a monkey on your back. Challenge yourself to take that hard trade. If it does not work out, so what your risk was limited and you can pat yourself on the back for taking the hard trade in the first place.
Great performance comes from turning off the brain and becoming automatic.
This is being in the Zone in the groove. You can t overanalyze the markets during the trading day. When you are relaxed, your reflexes and timing are superior because you are loose. It begins initially with your self-talk. Be your own best motivator and believer in yourself.
