THE MINDSET OF THE WARRIOR TRADER

“Think of all the years passed by in which you said to yourself, I’ll do it tomorrow, and how the gods have again and again granted you periods of grace of which you have not availed yourself. It is time to realize that you are a member of the Universe, that you are born of Nature itself, and to know that it is now your time. Use very moment wisely, to perceive your inner self, or ‘twill be gone and nevermore within your reach.” Marcus Aurelius

“Perhaps each of us have a starved place, and each of us knows deep down what we need to fill that place. To find the courage to trust and honor the search, to follow the voice that tells us what we need to do, even when it doesn’t seem to make sense is a worthy pursuit.” Sue Bender

“There is in all things an inexhaustible sweetness and purity, a silence that is a fount of action and joy. It rises up in wordless gentleness and flows out to me from the unseen roots of all creating beings, welcoming me tenderly, saluting me with indescribable humility.” Thomas Merton

“Live in the present, do all the things that need to be done, do all the good you can each day the future will unfold itself.” Peace Pilgrim

“I wonder why no one ever told me that the rainbow, and the treasure beneath it were both within me.” Gerald G. Jampolsky, M.D.

“Gratitude is Heaven itself.” William Blake
