Stop Crying, Its YOU, Not The Market!!

We're at the end of what 'some' and only some, would call a tough year...Things change and it's up to US to stay ahead of or at least with those changes, and after a year if you're still not doing well or going down still, sorry if you haven't realized it yet, you can't blame the market...It's you...

You need to look in the mirror and take responsibility for your situation, look around you, it's NOT happening to everyone so you can't blame the market...If you want to rationalize it by saying, "well in MY markt", well, if you stayed in "your" market this long, ummm, duh, switch markets, and again, why did you wait so long?...

Complaining and listing reasons why YOU can't be successful should be embarrassing
if you are a professional, pros don't whine and cry, they adapt and overcome, that's why they are pros...

There is a difference between discussing conditions and crying about why they hurt you, we all see the same situations, pros talk about how they overcome them, not how they are overcome by them...

Some are saying I'm denying reality, realities can be different, sorry yours sucks and instead of crying, blaming and pointing fingers at everyone but yourself, why not contact some of those doing well, find out why they're not crying and try to emulate them instead of jumping on the sad sack bandwagon of woe is us, it's not US, IT'S YOU!...

If you would accept that already, which of course is very tough, you can break down the barriers that are holding you back from being successful...You can be, even in today's market, change the things you can and accept the things you can't, but sheesh, STOP CRYING already, it's embarrassing, if not for yourself, for our industry...
