Now, why did you think it was similar ?
The loneliness of success
- Thread starter Smart Money
- Start date
it looks similar in the way that if i were looking for my lost
yellow labrador, i might turn around look at a golden retriever that i spotted up the road for a minute to make sure thats not him, but i would not look very hard if i spotted a poodle up the road.
the spike is there - but its not as strong
the pullback is there - but the number of pushes up and down is not clear as there are inside bars
the 3 pushes down did not hit a small channel line, like in the first pic
its not AT the moving average its above it
so, yeah, it looks like it, its a bull flag (its a dog), but its not it. its not that setup that i feel really strong about. (my yellow lab)
so you are trading your emotions. lol.
May be I can continue posting psy stuff on the emotion of "fear of success"
The problem with videos like this, is that people can't control their own reactions as much as suggested. If it were so easy to control one's own anger, then there would likely be peace in the Middle East....or nobody would ever get angry when being overtly ripped off, or overtly abused.
For example, a have a "friend" who gets angry about some of the same stuff over the years (such when there is nitpicking about something my friend has worked on, or when my friend get a list of things that need fixing for work near the weekend) No philosophy or rationalization changes that...it can't strictly be immaturity on my friend's part if the anger still happens from time to time over the years. It's not a matter of this happening, say, when my friend was in his 20s and then it stopped happening after a certain age.
Anger isn't a choice, it's a reaction...with reality holding the button and ready to press it at any time.
The human condition is way more vulnerable than people would like to believe. Perhaps, somewhere, some other life form is laughing about how fragile and vulnerable human beings are, and how their lives are all just a subject to chance and circumstance...and even their own wants and needs are just part of an endless chain of action and reaction. In fact, I predict that I will get a rebuttal saying that if you just believe that anger is a choice (rather than the truth which is that outside your complete control) then you will realize that anger is a choice.....but, hey, if you want to delude yourself into thinking anger is 100% within your control...then feel free to keep deluding yourself even though you are still mistaken.
I supose, in reality, maybe you could actually control anger with a lobotomy, but what's the point?The example you are giving is actually very very interesting : someone repeating the same emotional process and pattern of behavior. This is where good clinical psychiatrists help. 
. So that people do not get scarred Ari Kiev, was a clinical psychiatrist, Andrew Menaker as well...

i think anger is generally a product of 'our belief in the degree of control we have over our lives'. so for example, i may get angry at someone that says something to me that is pretty disturbing or stupid. like if someone said, 'your daughter is a little whore' or whatever..
i believe we get angry, not from what was said specifically, but because we think that person should be able to control himself from saying stupid things, they should have the discipline and know how not to say stupid things.
but it all changes if we start to believe that the reasons why people do things is caused by a complex confluence of factors that began at birth and became one massive complicated decision tree that leads us to current behavior that we have little to no control over. in other words, they dont have as much of an ability to not say stupid or crazy things to you as you may have once thought.
this tends to turn your anger into a reaction of, huh, that was interesting. i feel sorry for him.
That reminds me of the old joke:
How many psychologists does it take to change a light bulb?
Answer: Just one, but it takes a very long time, costs a lot of money, and the bulb has to want to change itself.
(and I would add, that the bulb has to actually have the ability to change itself in addition to just wanting to change itself).

Here we have the choice of behavior:
1) I feel sorry for the commentator
2) I get angry at the commentator.
Now if we add, the poster - just in case- is bored to death because the person is stuck at a train station, etc...
now we have another choice
3) please keep posting, that is entertaining
