Trading is like golfing.
Hale Irwin is considered to be the greatest player in Champions Tour history. A trader can learn a lot from legendary icons like Irwin because trading is much like a sport. There are winners and losers in the market just like there are winners and losers in golf, tennis, basketball, etc. One of the great things I admire about Hale Irwin is his mental attitude towards his craft. Here are some great nuggets of wisdom from Irwin that can be applied to trading.
Be a great manager of yourself and a manager of the course.
- Know who you are.
- Know your game.
- Play within yourself.
- Believe in yourself.
Never think about being the best -its about the challenge to try to be the best.
You can learn a lot from legendary icons and apply it to anything in your everyday life. To become a better trader, focus on trading. The passion and commitment to trading is what's important.
- Know what type of trader you are.
- Look for your setups.
- Manage your trades well.
- Believe that your hard work will pay off.
