{quote} When you know what you want then you take a step everyday towards the goal.... Missing stuff i work harder at job as well... got 7 appraisals in 3 years(8th one coming next month), work even harder in gym to chase dream physique and even even harder to have more girlfriends.... So the point as @procrude said key is DEDICATION AND CONSISTENCY eventually you'll get it just need to put the work in everyday......... But there's a catch dont do the donkey work instead research n spend time in building plan a, b and c and then move forward each...
So dead on......motivation and dedication, goal setting will apply to all aspects of your life. I have a wife and 4 kids, they are adults now, but even when they were younger.....I bust my ass in the gym, workout with weights 85-90% of my college athlete days, dedicated to trading. have a full time corporate job, still able to get 6-7 hours of sleep and enjoy the hell out of my leaisure time.
It all comes down to ..........HOW BAD YOU WANT IT!!!!!!!!!

one would hope that your wife is an adult.

If one carefully trades between 9.30 to 10 in S & P500, lots os money in making.

Thro scalping, and ofcourse not to violate 10 second rule to microscalping

I need to make 18 $ to meet my daily target.

I am still waiting.

Probably go long in s & p 500.

After target is met, no more.. will switch off Tradovate
Note :

I am done today, same like yesterday.

There could be consistency problem if i try to make more.

Consistency is 20 %

When you had nothing in every sense while growing up then either you accept the reality or it'll become your MISSION to get everything to prove a point to everyone...
Money - came from a lower middle class family... Money was always the goal not just for me but everyone around me to enjoy the happiness that money can bring...
Appearance - I was a skinny and a bit below average looks guy while growing up and got rejected twice once in high school and college both times i had a mad crush both but no appearance and money was the issue.

Fast forward --

Worked 60 hour a week labour job + study rest of time to get the job. Worked harder and become best performer for 3 years in row. But there is a limitation with job you'll make a certain amount. Started learning forex took years to perfect and Now completely transitioned to futures. Perfecting the skill.
Appearance - Spent money on myself and for last 12 years consistently working out. When you feel you have the best appearance that you can achieve its BOOSts your confidence to mars. bTw i look like a normal guy in person. I dont have a nick for expensive things at all. Heck i dont have a house(rental) or even own a car coz i work from home so i save money. N believe me i can afford more than that but right now my goals are different.

I dont keep a count for gf's or not to brag but my circle is decently big of female friends but have only 3 best buddies . Whoever i feel like to have a connection i just approach btw i dont approach random people. Literally, all of them are dying to be wife as they have said by their own words(and believe me money is not their motivation coz nobody knows about my bank balance + trading accounts except me. Everyone else thinks just a regular average job guy)...

Thats what i always say Everything is doable and achievable if you put in the work consistently with the PLAN in every aspect of life. Coz i am doing it and anybody can do it....... Got alot of hate in the beginning coz everyone like proofs thats why i post real trades with screenshots CONSISTENTLY not just winners + if check my older posts i had real trade explorers where converted LIVE 2k to 55k in matter of couple of weeks multiple times with a real broker. heck even added my insta in bio...

Everyone tend to forget we are living in a golden age where everything is available at our fingertips..... If you still POOR its on you.....
