We all know the high-water mark... fund managers use it for their equity curve highs. Hit a million, lose some, climb back above the old peak before you get paid.

But what if you applied that same thinking somewhere else entirely?

In this episode, I dig into using high-water marks beyond your account balance.

• Longest trade held.
• Most days sticking to your rules.
• Fewest red days.
• The longest journaling streak.

None of these moves your PNL on their own... but together they support it, and more importantly, they reframe what progress actually looks like.

Because here's the problem. Especially in those early years, you pour in the effort and the equity curve shows you nothing.

It's a recipe for despondency. So you measure something else. You chase a personal best in the things you know matter, and you start to believe bigger things are possible.

Could be the unlock you need.
