🧠 Why is boredom the real goal for every professional trader?
George Soros simply said:
Good investing is boring work.
Professionals are not looking for excitement.
Nor for adrenaline rushes.
Nor for the 'deal of a lifetime'.
🔹 Trading for them is a system, not a question:
> What should I speculate on today to get excited?
But:
Reading news
Identifying support and resistance
Setting alerts
Waiting
Executing
Journaling
The same routine… every day.

🎭 Amateurs love excitement; their hearts race with every candle.
Profit makes them happier.
Loss breaks them.
🧘 For professionals, the chart is like a boring administrative file.
Profit doesn't excite them.
Loss doesn't destroy them.
Profits = numbers
Not dignity or feelings.

🎯 Separate money from entertainment if you want fun?
Go to the cinema, café, travel.
Don't enter the market
To fill your void.
The market is not a game…
And the cost of entertainment in it is your capital.
Accept: 4 hours of boring trading
In exchange for
20 hours of enjoyable real life.

⚖️ Boredom = Stability excitement = Uncalculated risk
Boredom = Complete control
You know: how much you can lose
And how much you can gain
Without stress
Without surprises
📌 Sustainable growth requires a calm mind
Like a lake
Not an emotional wave.
