2 Bulls Trade Runner Podcast Episode 5 – Fear of Success!

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.” -Marianne Williamson

In the fifth installment of our limited series, we’ll be discussing Fear of Success!

Almost every trader I talk to denies he or she is afraid of success. However, in private coaching and hot seat work in our Boot Camp, together with the student we discover that success can create a negative experience that has the power to sabotage our success.

Marianne Williamson summed this fear up beautifully in the quote at the top of the page.

When I ask traders to vision their success, many cannot do this. As they try, many become very uncomfortable. If just visualizing success creates discomfort, imagine how your brain reacts when you approach success in the real world! This episode gives you the tool you need to evaluate the impact of success on your trading and an exercise to create a new framework for success.
