That's bullshit. I can imagine it kills you to admit it, but determination, guts, toughness, are all simply mental states of mind; attitudes. A "natural skill"? Like charisma or empathy? What a joke. You are betraying your total lack of understanding on matters of the mind. Charisma a...

You are right. Realists are not naysayers by default. It has been my experience that in the "real world" more people equate a negative outlook with being "realistic", and a positive one, with being a "dreamer". (not saying that YOU do, btw) The way things "really" are is, unfortunately...

Confidence with out competence is futile. That pretty much sums up your point. I totally disagree. I say that holding a positive expectation in your mind that, come what may, I WILL do this is the first step. History has proven that the greatest successes came when people had confidence in...

What a schmuk... I'm not just sitting here at my pc theorising dude, I say what I say because I have directly experienced it. perhaps unlike you, i was most certainly not born with a silver spoon. with the kind of life i used to lead, the kinds beliefs i had about life itself, about myself...

LOL. CLASSIC! :)

Beautiful darkhorse, just what I'd expect from you.. totally ignore the point I made and go off on some rant.. It is so patently obvious to me that you know fuck all about the process of change (from a human perspective) and yet come here giving us your gospel; with no reasoning behind it...

That shows just how empty your knowledge of psychological change really is - the fact that you expect such a change to take a lifetime. Yet, here you are telling us all about it.. perhaps you would do well to take the advice, "better to keep your mouth shut and let people (like me, faster...

That shows just how empty your knowledge of psychological change really is - the fact that you expect such a change to take a lifetime. Yet, there you are on the "Pabst execution.." thread telling us all about it.. perhaps you would do well to take the advice, "better to keep your mouth shut...

well well, seems darkhorse is no one trick pony; he's just as clueless in pyschology as in philosophy. let's see what he's trying to tell us here. firstly, let's eliminate the possibility of "b", since not only do I vehemently disagree that there's such a thing as being "cut out" for...

I would say exactly the same thing to you dark, almost exactly the same. Although I would substitute the word "bitterness" (which I assure you I am not (and I would know)) for "arrogance".

hmm, haven't I heard that before commis..Publias? come on bro, detach thyself from your feelings about ET and continue to post...

Gee Madison, maybe TV does have something interesting to offer afterall.. :) I like the comment on whether Britain has the right to go all guns blazing into Boston, in order to smoke out those Irish terrorists...afterall, Boston is harboring terrorists right?

d-oh alright...darkhorse is back! (:)) ... if you have no responsibility, fine. but all that detachment crap goes out the window if you have real world responsibilities. detachment is an excellent tool to distance yourself from emotion associated with a thing. if that helps you "do...

yeah...you could be a THUG! :eek: seriously though...if you're not averse to living on the wrong side of the law...there is BIG money available in drugs..

hmmm...reading permabulls other comments..i have to agree...this thread is just a stupid waste of time.. with the wealth of information here on elite (especially my posts :D ) a person would have to be an absolute idiot to make the kind of comments permabull is..

"market internals" LOL!!! :) the only thing your broker (and any broker) is an "expert" in, is selling securities! lol, i love his line about liking the steady income of being a broker! of course he does! he probably knows he'd go broke actually trading off his own advice... as I...

well master Brandon...it would be niced if you actually offered some reasoning as to why you believe SSFs won't be that liquid for a few years.... costs MAY be higher than in equities (@$1/contract with IB, not really)

Buddy, you'll probably find this offensive...but read it anyway... if you rely on a BROKER (friend or not) to make your decisions, you are an absolute idiot, and deserve whatever you get. Your broker doesn't know anything about what the markets gonna do just by virtue of being a...

I appreciate that candle's statement that I responded to is representative of the eastern philosophies you both appear to subsribe to, and not simply his own musings. I hope that doesn't mean you consider these philosophies beyond reproach. Since candle (et al) is implicitly stating that the...

WwwwwWatson! How's those QQQs trades going dude?? LOL! (I thought wwwatson had gone AWWWWOL! :)) Hey RS7. Nice, coherent, simple explanations dude. When you think about it, there's really not a whole lot to say is there? (About trading). It really is a very simple thing. Kinda like...
