I have made every mistake on my own journey as a trader. There is not a mistake that someone can make that I have not already made. There is no part of the journey that I have not already traveled. At the time, those mistakes were sometimes very painful but now they are my biggest strength. They give me the ability to know where someone is on their own personal journey and enable me to help them to navigate to the end.
I believe the journey is almost the same for everyone. What is different though is how many stops are made on the way, the duration of those stops and making sure you are always pointing in the right direction.
