Alex,

While I do agree with the beliefs expressed in the book on a cognitive basis, you are correct in that I probably don't fully accept them yet. I was wondering how people have incorporated those beliefs themselves. The affirmations (or mantras or assumptions or whatever you want to call them) are something that I'm working on but I was curious if they've actually worked for others. The most disciplined traders that I've encountered were transformed in the conventional way - multiple account blowouts. Multiple account blowouts have a lot of emotional energy so I can see how they could cause someone to change in a fundamental way but I hope to find an alternative way of achieving change. I am going to read the book again because I do agree with the basic premise - that changing my basic beliefs is needed.

Thanks for your thoughts,

Mark
