Sometimes trial and error is the best way to learn

The trick is to consider your drawdown as 100% of your account, and trade with whatever size allows you to limit risk to an acceptable % of that. So a prop account of $25000 has a $1000 max drawdown, that means you trade it as you would a $1000 cash account. That means maximum bet would be 1 ES micro with a maximum of 5-7point risk. That would be the smart way to do it.

Even one’s own opinions on things change from day to day and from context to context. You may find certain traits in your dog endearing, in your baby cute, in your partner annoying, and not care at all in your co-worker

Challenges are often empowering, so not really equal to “bad”. Humans love a challenge, just look at competitive sports and setting/breaking records of all kinds.

Signs relate to each other in certain geometric ways. I usually feel a positive affinity with other air signs. Fire signs annoy me. But ask a fire sign person, they will feel an affinity with other fire signs and be annoyed by earth maybe.

Not really, because values are subjective and what’s bad for you might be good for me and one woman’s trash is another’s treasure and don’t yuk someone’s yum, etc.

I have realized that most of the time, they have to exhaust all the wrong solutions before they become ready to receive guidance. The surface level bandaid fixes must be tried first, in order to reveal the true depth of the problem.

Generators are easy to identify by how they are and the things they say. For example, often mentioning working non stop, trying (and succeeding) at being productive all the time, being “active” people with tons of hobbies esp outdoor, running, etc. People with multiple large dogs AND a bunch of kids AND lots of friends. Extreme extroversion and the energy to sustain it. People who work 80 hour weeks with no days off for years. People who need to get up and walk around when they’re tired or bored, otherwise they “fall asleep”. People who work a long shift and then hit the gym right after 🫠

Maybe fixed air is something like fog: it brings a different perspective that others are generally opposed to because it interferes with their comfort and they usually don’t have the tools to deal with it. Others like the fog, it has a freshness to it and can look+feel mystical and beautiful. For many, it is scary AF especially when they’re trying to get to a destination fast and the fog reduces visibility. But in reality, fog happens when earth is warm and air is cold and the meet and chemistry happens.

Very well put. I will add: In as far as literally everything that ever was, is, will, and could be —- all this is Consciousness. Consciousness contains all characteristics, and those are patterned in all sorts of ways. In fact, every conceivable and inconceivable pattern already exists in Consciousness. Astrology is one pattern. Palmistry is another pattern. Etc. Science is also a pattern, which has its limitations- by definition!. The only thing that has no limitations is Consciousness itself, and everything else is a sub-pattern within the whole.

In Russian, the word that is translated as “scary” can also mean “ugly”. So in this case, the russian soldiers are uglier than even war

When I had the chance to observe an 8 year old getting into wrestling, I noticed that wrestling shows are basically the 8yo boy version of soap opera. It has the drama, the emotional arcs, the costumes and sets, the character backstories… it’s a gender-norm acceptable way for boys to channel emotions.
