Not every trade works out for me. Far from it! I lose half the time. But EVERY trade is a good play at the time, because my risk is always a fraction of my likely reward. And that's the secret... I always get odds on my money. In trading, that's the definition of a "good choice."
In any performance business the bottom line is winning, hitting the goal, getting the job done. Winners do what they have to do to win. Losers make excuses why they didn't perform. A way to win and a way to lose ALWAYS exists. It's a matter of the quality of the choices we make. pic.twitter.com/RXvu4o4FBC

Compounding is amazing. Just 3 months into the year I'm having one of my best returns. That's because instead of arguing with the market, I made an adjustment and took what it was offering, and that allowed for rapid turnover that can add up pretty fast if you are concentrated.
Short term trading is what has worked best in this market. Until I see an alternative working better, I'm going to stick what is working like a charm.

👨💻 Last resume I sent to a startup one year ago, sharing with you to get ideas:
- Forget what you don't have, make your strength bold
- Pick one work experience and explain what you did in detail w/ bullet points
- Write it towards the role you apply
- Give social proof
/thread
"But I got no work experience..."
Make a open source lib, make a small side project for yourself, do freelance work, ask friends to work with them, no friends? Find friends on Github, and Twitter.
Bonus points:
- Show you care about the company: I used the company's brand font and gradient for in the resume for my name and "Thank You" note.
- Don't list 15 things and libraries you worked with, pick the most related ones to the role you're applying.
-🙅♂️"copy cover letter"
"I got no firends, no work"
One practical way is to reach out to conferences and offer to make their website for free. But make sure to do it good. You'll get:
- a project for portfolio
- new friends
- work experience
- learnt new stuff
- new thing for Twitter bio
If you don't even have the skills yet, why not try your chance for @LambdaSchool? No? @freeCodeCamp. Still not? Pick something from here and learn https://t.co/7NPS1zbLTi
You'll feel very overwhelmed, no escape, just acknowledge it and keep pushing.
