“To aggressively pursue opportunity and equally aggressively refrain from risk when opportunity is not present requires a highly developed Will. We train ourselves for our careers, and we train ourselves physically. Rarely, however, do we train the Will and cultivate our capacity to act with purpose and intent. Many a wise mentor has advised new traders to “trade well and the money will come.” Without a developed Will, however, there can be no consistent discipline or learning curve. The capacity to sustain directed, productive effort underlies all greatness; our being is a reflection of our doing.”
