Today I received a DM from a trader who wants to have a phone conversation, I thought this is just like any other msg ppl usually send, still went ahead and had a call with this relatively lesser known trader, but I was mind blown after the call.
This one call changed my perspective towards trading and life completely. I have seen many traders complain about the limitations they have,
due to job they are unable to concentrate on trading,
due to studies not able to focus on trading, unable to find mentor etc

Be it a business man or working professional, we always tend to complain about life when things donβt go in our favour. None of us are grateful for the life we live, everyone of us are chasing something in life, we tell ourselves that once we achieve X, we will be happy
But there is this person whom I spoke to, mentioned #trader #Quadriplegic in his profile, only today I came to know that it means a person affected by paralysis of all four limbs, I thought quadriplegic related to some quantπ€¦π»ββοΈ
He has been paralysed for more than 15 years. He lost his dad at the age of 15, only son, his mother has to take care of him, so she canβt even go for a job. Inspite of all this, he took efforts to learn about rule based trading, developed his own algo trading system
Has been in markets since 2014, he says he is not expert and still spends more than 8 hours a day trying to learn every thing about the markets. We spoke to more than a hour, not even a minute he cribbed about his life, not a single complaint about his situation
In fact we talked n joked about traders situation through vadivelu jokes. I never felt sorry for him, I just felt so proud talking to him today, full of positivity. Hats off to him for the rock solid mindset he holds.
His name is Gowri @Im_GowriShankar the most inspiring trader i have ever met in my life. π«‘π«‘
He is the perfect example of βLife is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you respond to it.β Love you man.
