In 2007 one Bet Angel user<\/a> took on the grand challenge of trying to trade a small starting bank to \u00a3100,000. Not to be outdone, several new blogs have appeared this year trying to up the ante. Two of the more proninant ones are pre-off racing traders John<\/a>, who is aiming to reach a profit of \u00a3100,000 for the year, and Adam,<\/a> who has a target of \u00a3150,000! Both are well into their blogs and looking in good shape.<\/p>\n

Not all bloggers do so well and it’s worth remembering that, but most blogs generally make interesting reading and give you an insight into the mindset of others. Trading can be a lonely existence and listening to others going through the mill helps you to be reflective. Don’t get envious of others though, if they are doing much better than you. Envy is the most destructive emotion I know. Don’t let it get a hold of you as its very counter productive.<\/p>\n

The best thing to do is to learn to take encouragement from others achievements and use that to put new energy into your activities. That’s a path that led me to meet the two richest people in the world and I am much better off for that experiance and journey. That never would have happened if I was just envious of them. I know its a cliche, but always think positive!<\/p>\n
