Psychology by Michael Jordan

Hi,

I like these commercials, because it very similar with trading. Commercials are not new, but i hope, that it can somebody give some more motivation.

1st one: YouTube – Michael Jordan “Simple Math” Nike Commercial
It says – stop looking for holy grail, there is no math formula, there is only training!

2nd one: YouTube – Maybe – New Michael Jordan Commercial
It says – stop looking for excuses!

3rd one: YouTube – Michael Jordan “Failure” Nike Commercial
It says – Success it not about winning, it is about loosing and deal with it!

4th one: YouTube – Look Me In The Eyes – Jordan Commercial – Become Legendary
It says – very nice courage and patience… I am scared what i wont become, you are scared what you could become..

5th one: YouTube – Michael Jordan “Become Legendary #1” Nike Commercial
It says – It is not about indicator/shoes/etc!!

Good luck, goal is closer, than you think..

 

Hemline Theory

I don’t believe in the trivial Hemline Theory and its effect on the stock market.
SKIRT
But if I did, I would say we’re headed for a raging bull market, in Nike (NKE) …because tennis star Serena Williams is going beyond hemlines. She’s now on the cover of a magazine, in a slippery pose.
