What a journey thus far. I remember being forced into retirement after breaking my neck for the second time. I then got rid of my financial advisor when I left the NFL thinking how I was paying them fees to lose me money during the crash. The best answer they could give me at that time was that I wasn't losing as much money as everyone else. Thats when I knew there had to be a better way to bet on myself but consistently with odds in my favor. Multiple scenarios in the interim but finally found Sykes' group through a colleague and literally started from ground zero not even knowing what long or short meant!!!!
Long days and nights of being frustrated at the fact that what I was working diligently at wasn't turning over positive results. For 2 years, continually kept falling but always encouraged of seeing others in the chat room making money knowing that if they could, I could. Also reflected on the fact that nothing ever came easy for me and that if I wanted it bad enough I would have to put in the work. Previous success and processes of due diligence, persistence and hard work is what I believe in. Giving up was never an option, I just had to continually focus and be willing to do what ever it took to learn and get it right. I paid a very big tuition to the market to earn this trading degree but now have a foundation to enhance a skill set that I can use for life. I am a follower of Christ, retired professional athlete, business man, a motivational speaker, a personal trainer, a father of four, little league coach and so much more and now I can add PROFITABLE TRADER!! Long way to go to MY OWN PERSONAL GOAL but the journey thus far is so appreciated because of the work put in. Enjoy the video lesson and be inspired. Remember... I knew nothing...now I know a little....stay tuned.
Thank you Ellis, love the humility.
