Trading on Target: How to Cultivate a Winner's State of Mind

IMAGINATION AND PASSION

People who lack imagination often lack passion. One of the key ingredients in passion is a vivid imagination. The sights, sounds, tastes, and all the other details of an image are the elements of passion. This is why someone who is setting the scene of a seduction brings all the elements of the senses together—the flowers, the music, the lighting, the wine, and the foods to excite the senses and a lovely room with a view and the perfect clothing and perfumes and candles.

For passion to exist where there was no passion previously, the senses must be aroused with details that make the imagination work. The awareness of these details stimulate the senses, which in turn help the brain to release the neurotransmitters that make us feel alive with passion.

The natural level of passion in a human being can be dramatically stunted by the exposure to loss, humiliation, rejection, criticism, or traumatic experiences. The images formed in the unconscious from these experiences are powerful enough to dampen the urge to feel passion for life and for the choices we make.

This area is particularly amenable to significant improvement by working with someone who is trained to help you develop a powerful set of images that can motivate you and dramatically increase your passion for trading and help to undo damaging images that decrease passion.
