How Life Coaching improves trading

Our business problems do not arise from our lack of ability, but from an imbalance in our brain. Today’s human beings are programmed to think incorrectly. Life coaching improves trading because it is much more comprehensive than any other type of successful coaching.

Most traders are not working through the problems of their trading challenges, but are addressing the bottom line of their challenges. The problems are a lack of self-knowledge, not a lack of ability.

Traditional business coaching focuses on refining your entries and exits, your loss limits, etc. As Ed Seykota said:

There is no math to deal with uncertainty

Ed Seykota nailed it, because if you’ve suppressed your fears, you’ll never become a great businessman.

Ultimately, every business challenge is based on incorrect subconscious thinking that leads to incorrect, often impulsive, business behaviors.

Enter, the life coach for traders

Life coaching is the most complete form of coaching available to you. It is a combination of healing, wisdom teaching, and performance training.

A good life coach who knows about business can help you develop a new way of looking at yourself and your (business) world.

Life coaching is all-encompassing

It includes training in spiritual development, universal law, developing mindfulness, learning about yourself, and techniques to apply this knowledge in your business and in your life.

Very few traders bring this kind of comprehensive and holistic knowledge to the trading table. If they have the knowledge, they don’t know how to apply it to their operations.

If they did, their trading would improve today.

We need to understand why we should do something differently

The hardest part is this: to perform better as a trader, you must first change yourself. Only when you change yourself does your trading improve. It is difficult, because 99% of all people resist change.

Your brain must be given a compelling reason why it should change your life habits. Life Coaching will give you the reasons why you should change. It is an essential part of the coaching process.

We need to be shown how to expand our knowledge first before we can move to the next level with ease and grace. The process is holistic and not compartmentalized.

Few traders have the knowledge or tools to choose that approach on their own without guidance.

They get lost in the minutiae of the different techniques and end up regressing or, at best, unemployed. That is the reality for 95% of all merchants.

Life coaching improves trading because it tackles all problems simultaneously, weaving everything into an orderly framework that your trading mind will happily process. A happy and stimulated brain learns faster. The result: your business improves.
