What prevents you from becoming a trader.

Or why some people earn millions, while others only dream of them.

When you're 20, it seems like all roads are open, and there's nothing you can't achieve in life. At 30, your judgment is more pessimistic, your goals more down-to-earth. At 40, few people expect to make a career or dramatically change their lives for the better.

But it turns out you can achieve a lot at any age; the main thing is to know what's stopping you from achieving success, in our case, a career as a trader.

• Motivation—or rather, the lack of it, the presence of desires—always motivates goal setting. A person who doesn't want anything is unlikely to achieve anything, so make your wildest wishes, and they will definitely come true if you work towards them.

• You don't value time - the more time you waste, the less time you have left for useful things. Learn to clearly prioritize, putting first those tasks that need to be completed first.

• Inability to save money - it would seem that such a simple moment plays a big role in achieving success, a person who does not know how to manage 100 dollars will never have millions. But, learning how to spend money wisely is not that difficult, it is just a set of rules that should be strictly followed.

• Discipline - look at the majority of millionaires who made their fortune through their work - they are focused, athletic, their day is clearly scheduled down to the minute. If you want to become like them, remove the word "I don't want" from your vocabulary, replacing it with "I have to".

• Lack of knowledge - if you decide to invest money or master the profession of trading, start with theory, there are many excellent books about forex that will help you become more educated in financial matters.

• Unwillingness to count money - I have often heard from some acquaintances the phrase - "Why count money, I already know that I have little of it" - years passed and not one of them became wealthy. No matter how much you earn, you should always know where your money goes.

• Fear of the new - this is especially true for people of the older generation, but it is new trends and technologies that allow you to make money quickly and with less initial capital .

And most importantly - never give up, everything works out for those who do it and do not stop working even after unsuccessful attempts. Moreover, this applies not only to stock trading, but to any type of business.
