\nJerry Seinfeld was asked why his TV show in the 90’s was so good. Here’s his response\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

Let me tell you why my TV series in the 90s was so good, besides just an inordinate amount of just pure good fortune. In most TV series, 50 percent of the time is spent working on the show, 50 percent of the time is spent dealing with personality, political, and hierarchical issues of making something. We spent 99 percent of our time writing. Me and Larry [David]. The two of us. The door was closed. It\u2019s closed. Somebody calls. We\u2019re not taking the call. We were gonna make this thing funny. That\u2019s why the show was good.<\/span><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There’s a lot of wisdom in this very short quote. And if can’t figure out what it is, you have no chance at succeeding at anything.<\/span>
\nTurn off Facebook. Turn off Twitter. Turn off Youtube. Close your email. If you want to make it as a trader, roll up your sleeves and get to work. Constantly ask yourself: Is what I’m doing right now getting me closer to my goal? If the answer isn’t a resounding yes, stop doing it.<\/span>
\nYes life happens to all of us. School, kids, family obligations, this, that, whatever. Somehow our schedules get filled. But in the end if you really want this, do what Seinfeld did. Close the door. Don’t take the call.<\/span>
