I don’t know about you, but I have been watching this great series of TV shows by Tony Robbins. It is about people who are down and out and how they turn their lives around in 30 days. What I really love about the show is that it shows exactly how Tony breaks these people out of the ruts that they are in. Many times they have been caught in this destructive behavior for years and he puts them on the path to success very quickly.
Many of these situations are truly tragic and I think anyone would have some understanding for these people’s behavior because of what happened to them. However, in order to overcome these odds, they need to be put through a series of events that will cause them to have a breakthrough and get them back to where they want to be.
I find the psychology of this process absolutely intriguing and I am using it to find ways to improve myself and create my own personal breakthroughs. There are a couple of very important things that I have learned by watching these shows.
First of all, no matter how bad I think things are going sometimes in my life, there are people who have it a million times worse. If they could overcome their situation, then so can I.
Secondly, just like a lot of other things in life, creating a breakthrough can be broken down into a series of repeatable steps and if someone is willing to take the steps, then they can achieve similar results. While I am watching the shows, I find myself trying to apply it to my own life and how I can use those steps to take me to the next level.
As traders, the number one weapon that we have against the markets is our psychology and how we use it to create consistently profitable trades. If you are having a tough time in your trading life or in your personal life, these shows can really give you some perspective as to what it takes to overcome that adversity and be a hero.
I am featuring this episode first because of all the episodes I have seen, this was the one where I really saw the breakthrough happen for this woman, almost in an instant. I could literally see the change in her face. I’m sure that you know someone who is so stubborn and ornery that you never thing they will change. Well, she was just such a woman.
See the full episode below, I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. This is one of the few shows on TV actually worth watching, too bad there are only 6 episodes!
