The Success Shift with Jake Snedker

Neurotransmitters, what does this mean? Where do you find them? and how are they relevant to my trading? With the continuation of the conversation on the brain, today we are diving deeper, into some of the smallest aspects of the brain. Neurotransmitters are the chemicals that are released from our neurons when our brain starts firing away. Depending on what we are doing, thinking, and feeling depends on the levels and the chemicals that are being released and playing a very powerful role in our behavior and responses/reactions. Join me to find out more.

The intricacies of the human brain are truly amazing, and over the next few weeks, i'll be diving deeper into some of the aspects of brain function that continues to impress. In today's episode we are talking all about different brain waves, From Delta (deep sleep) through to Gama the super conscious, or extreme alertness state. If this makes absolutely no sense to you, then you better tune in.

"The Backwards Man, the backwards man, I can go backwards as fast as you can. While Tom Green was a hilarious backwards man. What is the backwards law?

The backwards law, is a paradox that implies that the more you want something, the harder it is to obtain.

Mark Manson describes this well when he says; "Wanting a positive experience is a negative experience, but, accepting a negative experience is a positive experience."

Allan Watts has a great example that goes; " When you try to stay on the surface of the water, you sink. When you try to sink, you float."

Think about the last time you where in a pool or at the beach. Can you resonate with this concept???

If not, you should definitely tune into today's episode. If you do understand this, then you should definitely tune into today's episode.

The Flow state. What is it? I believe it is a place in time, inside your mind where everything that needs to be, is in sync. Your brain waves are in a certain state that ignores all the background noise, and focuses only on the task at hand. Usually, this occurs at the perfect intersection of challenging and doable. When we are challenged just enough that we are no longer bored, but not challenged too hard we struggle to complete the task. If you have experienced this before, you will know the feeling. Have you been in a flow state? If so, what where you doing?

There is nothing more important in life than this EXACT moment. No matter what your goals, dreams or desires are, what is happening right now creates or breaks them. So often, we pass through time, with our minds focused on other things. Worried about what might happen in the future, What will happen if I lose this trade? What will happen if I'm not in it? Or we live in fear of the past, or disappointment that you aren't living up to that memory of your last holiday in Mexico. When the truth is...... None of that actually matters. In this episode we aim to bring focus to the NOW, and worry only about what is happening at this very moment. I also recap my top 5 lessons from my time out in Sweden.

3rd and Final part on Self-Sabotage.

See you all in a couple of weeks.

Much Love and Happy Trading.

Part 2 of 3, from this week's lessons on Self-Sabotage.

After asking you the listeners, what you struggled with the most. It was clear to me that it was time to go a little bit deeper on both the understanding and resolve of self-sabotage.

This topic is something I actually find a little difficult to get my head around, and getting to the core reasons and beliefs behind why exactly we self-sabotage on an individual level is quite a long and personal Journey.

However, I have decided that all this week I am going to do some research and see if I can bring to you some of the more common reasons why we self-sabotage, what behaviors are associated with the self-sabotage and possible ways you can begin to break/change these habits.

Today is Part 1 of the Three parts surrounding Self Sabotage.

Enjoy, and Happy trading. Pce.

When we are trading, we need but focus on one thing. Does, what is happening on the chart RIGHT NOW, match the rules on my trading plan, that requires me to take action?

Not what happened in the past, Not what you THINK 'might' happen in the future.

But, what is happening right now.

Emotions are attached to time, if we live in the present moment, we can learn to live with freedom 'OF' Emotion and detach from that which seems to wreak havoc on our trading.
