Today we talk about the art of building and sustaining performance like a top athlete.  I discuss 10 TIPS to get you to step into the mindset of a top performer.   Think of the greatest things in life you have ever accomplished so far?  What are you most proud of?  Was it easy to get?  Was it any easier after you accomplished that thing? Now here’s the real question, if you’re gonna achieve more amazing things, do you REALLY believe it’s gonna get easier? NO! The truth is peak performance requires constant effort and energy to sustain.  You are never really at the top, even when OTHERS think you are.  You need constant work, internal motivation, and an obsessive desire for success. Here are 10 tips to help you channel that high-performance energy into your trading:

1. It never gets easier, you only get stronger. 
2. You don’t deserve to coast.
3. You can’t just get back to peak performance, you have to work hard to STAY THERE! 
4. Your body is your vehicle, it’s your temple, it’s a miracle - treat it well.  
5. Your mind is a miracle. 
6. Have an offseason, use it wisely. 
7. Know when it’s game time, and go hard.  
8. Look back and see how far you’ve come. 
9. The past will never be, the future may never come as you expect it. Live in the moment.
10. Learn to receive. 

Whether you like it or not, as a trader, you are in the business of extreme performance.  You need to constantly work on yourself to maintain a high level of success, because your competition is doing that and more.   The EDGE in your trading that YOU are looking for IS YOU! Happy trading everyone. Resources
