Ever notice how trading messes with your head? One minute you're calm, next minute you're spiraling.
The frustration hits different in this game. Markets don't care about your feelings, and that mental weight? It stacks up fast.
But here's the thing most traders miss: frustration isn't your enemy. Your perspective is.
REFRAMING changes everything. Every loss becomes a lesson. Every mistake turns into data. That brutal drawdown? It's just tuition for the next winning streak.
Sounds simple because it is. Executing it? That's where the real work lives.
The traders who survive long-term aren't the ones who avoid stress—they're the ones who learned to rewire how they process it.

NGL mindset is really the Achilles' heel for most newcomers, no doubt about it.

To be honest, the hardest part isn't losing money, but the process of psychological adjustment.

That's right, mindset is really the hardest part; my mind just exploded at the moment of loss.
