具有启发性是什么意思？《韦氏大词典》对启发的定义是：能够使某人希望做什么事或者是给某人关于做事或创造的灵感；能够激励人的力量或影响；一个人，地方，经历等能使人想做或者创造某事；一个好主意。一些关于启发性的例子可以是：一个阳光明媚的早晨，你深呼一口气，你感恩自己还活着并渴望做更多的事情；或者你见证了生命诞生的奇迹，并激励自己做得更好；或者是许许多多你被威严或者神秘震惊的时刻。启发性也与你生命中那些让你受到鼓舞的重要的事有关：比如家庭，爱，以及服务社会等让你充满激情与兴奋感。受到启发也与将组织或规划好的方法付诸行动并专注于交易中最重要的事情有关。启发性将生活和交易中最重要的事联系在一起。让自己富有灵感与激情的最重要一点是交易的“动力原因”，也就是交易目的。
你交易的目地是一个维持交易航向真正北方的导航器。这可以确保你的交易是以原则为核心的。许多交易者默认的一件事是，航行的目地就是将船与利润完全的结合在一起。将盈利作为交易的唯一目的就像将电话用于玩游戏而抛弃其用于联系人以及事的最重要功能一样奇怪。不要误会我，资金的本质就是与交易联系在一起，它是市场的生命。但是它不是你交易的唯一原因也不是你交易的主要原因。
你希望得到资金可以买到的东西。资金只是一个交换媒介；你不能在资金里面吃，喝或者住，意思是资金只是一个次级（外在的）而不是一个主要的（内在的）动因。它的主要价值在于共识，因此，它必定会变得毫无价值；因此，许多货币最终都沦为历史的牺牲品。令人信服的理由是，资金连接着生活以及交易中最重要的事情。比如，将生活的激情以及福利与遵循自己的交易规划、原则、履行自己的承诺联系在一起。这些是生活以及交易中最重要的部分，而这些你都可以通过交易获得。当你走到一个交易的三岔路口，你想屈服于交易的冲动性，过早的移动止损或者就平仓，你可以让自己投入到那些给你带来交易启发的重要生活中：提醒自己你正在为孩子的教育，家庭的度假或者是你未来一头黄发的孙子做交易，这也就是你为什么要履行自己交易原则、遵循承诺的原因。
交易具有许多定义，比如“从那些不知道自己在做什么的交易者账户中转移资金到知道自己在做什么的交易者账户中”（Sam Seiden）；“交易是自我发现的一段旅程”；以及“成功的交易是有效的精力管理”。持续地，一步步地严格执行交易计划，提高自己的交易能力以及持久性。这些都从你的交易目的开始，将交易与生活连接在一起。这就是交易过程的重要性所在，你已经得到的可以激发你获得更多…你人格的伟大。这就是我们线上以及线下的“掌握你的心理游戏”课程。同时，阅读我的《从痛苦到盈利：走向交易巅峰的秘密》
Is Your Trading Inspired?
What does it mean to be inspired or to have inspiration? According to Merriam-Webster inspiration is: something that makes someone want to do something or that gives someone an idea about what to do or create: a force or influence that inspires someone: a person, place, experience, etc., that makes someone want to do or create something: a good idea. Some examples of an inspiring event might be a dazzling sunrise that causes you to catch your breath and triggers a gratitude for being alive and desire to do more; or witnessing the miracle of birth that inspires you to be better; or any other of the many instances where you are taken by the majesty and mystic of the moment. It also has to do with those times when you are quietly inspired by the what-matters-most in your life, like family, love and service to community that creates an inner passionate excitement. Being inspired also is about using organization and planning skills to put in place and maintain your focus on the things that are most important in the trade. It’s connecting the what-matters-most in your life to the what-matters-most in the trade. One of the most critical items in becoming inspired and passionate enough to raise your bar and increase your motivation factor is to start out with a “compelling reason” to trade; in other words your purpose.
Your purpose for trading is a navigational compass for maintaining “true trade north.” This is ensuring that your trading is “principle centered.” One thing that many traders default to when they think about purpose is to tie the ship totally to the notion of “profit.” As strange as it may sound, having money as your only reason for trading is like game playing being the only reason for using your cell phone while disregarding the vital importance of connecting with the important people and events of your life. Don’t get me wrong, money is integrally connected to trading and it is the lifeblood of the markets; but it is not the only, nor the primary reason why you trade. You want what money can buy. Money is only a medium of exchange; you can’t eat, drink or live in it, which means that it is only a secondary (extrinsic) and not a primary (intrinsic) motivator. Its only value is derived by consensus and, therefore, it is subject to becoming worthless; as so many currencies have fallen prey in history. The compelling reason is what connects the critically important things in your life to the critically important things in the trade; for instance, tying the passion of family and providing for their welfare to making sure that you are planning your trades, trading your plans, following all of your rules and keeping all of your commitments. These top the list of what-matters-most items while in the trade in order to get the results that you want. This why is the compelling reason; because when you get to that fork in the road, facing a trade where you want to give in to that urge to chase a trade, move a stop or exit a trade prematurely, you can plug into the energy of your passion by accessing and activating your compelling reason in order to re-mind yourself that you are trading for your children’s education, your families vacation home or the future of your little towheaded grandchild and this is why you must follow your rules and keep your promises.
Trading has a number of definitions; for instance, “It is the transfer of money from the accounts of those who don’t know what they are doing into the accounts of those who do.” (Sam Seiden) “Trading is a journey in self-discovery.” And, “Successful trading is effective energy management.” When you create consistency in your planning, follow-through and execution you will develop “step-by-step” capacity for strength and endurance in the trade. This all begins with your purpose, your compelling reason that puts the energy of your passion in the service of your trading. Here is where the importance of your process can inspire you to go as far as you can with all that you’ve got…your personal greatness.
