Understand this: The movies and shows about the crucifixion have been tame when compared to what He actually went through. Even The Passion Of The Christ was forced to hold back a little in order to avoid an X rating. Crucifixion was, and still is, arguably the most excruciating death someone can experience. The night before in Gethsemane, He was sweating blood. This is known as hematidrosis. This would have caused His skin to become extremely sensitive, thus making the beatings to come even worse. The fear He felt was the beginning of His feeling the weight of our iniquities being laid on Him. Yet - in this moment, He didn’t demand that the Father take it from Him. He only asked for the cup to pass Him over if it was within the Father’s will. Up next came the Cat of Nine Tails, or a Roman Flagrum. This was a weapon with long leather “tails”, each embedded with sharp bones and metal. He was flogged 39 times as Jewish law mandated “40 minus one”, because 40 was said to kill a man. This flogging wasn’t like being punished by your father’s leather belt. Every strike tore flesh, every strike exposed muscle. Every strike exposed nerve endings. Every strike tore flesh to the bone. This would be like getting struck with razor blades over and over again, leading to hypovolemic shock from blood loss. Oh, and the crown of thorns? These weren’t rose thorns. These were thorns which were 2-3 inches long. Beaten into his skull. These thorns would have pierced his skull, tripping the trigeminal nerve, thus causing unimaginable pain and even more blood loss from the dozens of head wounds. At this point, extreme nausea and dizziness would begin to set in. What came next? Carrying the cross. Which weighed around 300lbs. This would be like carrying two full kegs on your back. Splinters and wood grating against the open flesh on His back. And He had to carry it 650 yards, or close to a half mile. Imagine carrying a log on your back after being skinned alive. Up next? He was nailed to the cross with spikes 5-7in in length. Piercing His wrists - this no doubt pierced the median nerve, causing extreme burning sensations up and down His arms. A spike was driven through his ankles - severing nerves and tendons. This would have felt like standing on broken glass every time He pushed Himself up in order to breathe. He suffered for 6 hours. His chest muscles collapsing, making every single breath a fight for life. His shoulders were dislocated, His arms stretching unnaturally long. His heart was struggling to pump blood. He was extremely dehydrated, His lips cracking. His heart more than likely literally ruptured from the stress. And on top of all of that, He had to feel a separation with the Father for a period of time in order to REALLY bear the weight of our sin. He took up this burden for ALL sin before Him, and ALL sin which came after Him. HE DID IT ALL FOR US. To free us. To defeat sin. To give us a pathway to the Kingdom. Every sin we commit is exactly why He had to do it. And the real kicker? He knew what was coming when He rode into Jerusalem … and He didn’t turn around. He kept going. For us.

Easiest way to super boost your social life: Organize a dinner party every month for a year. Join a few sport clubs like paddle/pickle that share players rotating teams/opponents. It takes proactiveness to be social, it’s an active process, not one that happens when sitting back. Lower budget, every Sunday: Organize Beach volleyball Organize yoga in the park Organize a book club Organize a car/bike/coffee lover meetup … Making yourself the middleman is one of the biggest hacks in business and personal life. It’s all about providing value and the reciprocity most humans feel. You get by giving, not by receiving first.

sat next to a 20 year old guy on a plane who casually mentioned he made $4.5 million last year didn't look rich t-shirt jeans beat up backpack i asked what he did "i trade futures" "full time?" "yeah, about 3 hours a day" "$4.5 million in 3 hours a day?" "well, it's not really about hours, it's about decisions. i probably make 10-15 decisions per month that matter. the rest is just waiting" "what do you mean?" "most people think trading is constant action. it's not. it's 99% waiting for your setup, 1% executing. that's why most people fail. they can't handle doing nothing" he pulled out his laptop showed me his calendar 90% of trading days marked: "NO TRADE" "this is march, see? 31 days. i traded 7 times. made $380k that month" "7 trades made $380k?" "yeah, because they were the RIGHT 7 trades. everyone else took 200 trades that month and lost money because they were WRONG trades. quality over quantity" "how do you know which 7 to take?" "i don't trade unless i'd bet my house on it" "what?" "every trade, i ask myself: would i bet my house on this setup? if the answer is no, i don't trade. most setups? the answer is no. but 7 times this month, the answer was YES" he kept talking: "the biggest mistake retail traders make is thinking they need to trade every day. you don't. you need to trade WHEN YOUR SETUP APPEARS. some months that's 15 times. some months that's 3 times" "what about consistency?" "consistency isn't daily trading. consistency is ONLY taking your setup. if your setup appears once a week, you trade once a week. if it appears 5 times in a day, you trade 5 times that day. the market doesn't care about your need for action" "but i feel like i'm wasting time if i'm not trading" "that's employee mindset. you think time = money. it doesn't. correct decisions = money. i make more doing nothing 24 days a month than you make forcing trades every single day" he was right i was trading out of BOREDOM not opportunity i tested this for 90 days: BEFORE "house bet" filter: - 156 trades - 41% win rate - -$3,800 AFTER "house bet" filter: - 11 trades - 73% win rate - +$14,200 11 trades in 90 days because i stopped trading and started WAITING the plane guy was right: "most traders are addicted to action. they need to DO something. that's why they lose. the real money is in doing NOTHING until the perfect setup appears. but doing nothing feels like you're not working, so people force trades" "how do you handle the boredom?" "i have a life outside trading. i go to the gym. i read. i travel. trading is 3 hours a day MAX. the other 21 hours i'm living. you guys are staring at charts 12 hours a day hoping something happens. that's not trading. that's gambling addiction" he closed his laptop "here's the secret: the less you trade, the more you make. i know guys trading 500 times a month making $0. i trade 15 times a month making $400k. the difference? i'm SELECTIVE. they're ACTIVE. market rewards selectivity, punishes activity" flight landed he gave me his card "if you want to make real money trading, stop trying to trade every day. start waiting for YOUR setup only. 90% of trading is waiting. 10% is executing. master the waiting and you'll make more money doing nothing than everyone else makes doing everything" i never saw him again but i think about that conversation every single day the math is simple: you're not paid by the trade you're paid by the CORRECT trade taking 200 trades with 40% accuracy = -$5k taking 20 trades with 70% accuracy = +$50k same account different approach completely different outcome most of you are over-trading thinking activity = profit it doesn't selectivity = profit the traders making $500k+/year they trade LESS than you not more they're better at WAITING not better at TRADING master the wait make the money

I reverse-engineered every prop firm's risk rules and found they're all testing the SAME psychological weakness Not your strategy. Your impulse control during losing streaks. Here's the prop firm psychology exploit that turns 30% pass rates into 80% pass rates: Most traders think prop challenges test: - Strategy quality - Entry accuracy - Exit timing Wrong Prop firms test ONE thing: Can you follow pre-set rules when your brain is screaming at you not to? Here's what they discovered about trader psychology: THE PROP FIRM SECRET DATA: Traders who pass challenges: 73% made ALL decisions before emotional pressure Traders who fail challenges: 91% made decisions during emotional pressure The difference isn't skill It's WHEN you decide Let me show you the system that exploits this: THE PRE-DECISION PROTOCOL: PHASE 1: SUNDAY PLANNING (30 minutes) Before any trading: Decision 1: Max trades this week □ Write exact number (example: 15 trades max) □ No deviation allowed Decision 2: Trading days □ Monday: YES/NO □ Tuesday: YES/NO □ Wednesday: YES/NO □ Thursday: YES/NO □ Friday: YES/NO □ (Example: Mon/Wed/Fri only) Decision 3: Session times □ Exact start time: _____ □ Exact end time: _____ □ (Example: 8am-11am only) Decision 4: Max daily trades □ Write exact number (example: 2 max) □ Laptop closes after number hit Decision 5: Risk per trade □ 0.5% for challenges □ Never adjust mid-week All decisions made BEFORE emotions PHASE 2: DAILY EXECUTION (2 hours) Monday morning 8:00am: □ Review Sunday decisions □ Set platform to auto-close at 11am □ Phone in airplane mode □ No Discord/Twitter during session Take ONLY pre-planned trades: □ If setup matches criteria = take it □ If setup doesn't match = skip it □ If already hit daily max = laptop closes No real-time decisions allowed Just execution of pre-planned rules PHASE 3: POST-SESSION REVIEW (5 minutes) After session ends: □ Did I follow max trades? Y/N □ Did I trade only planned days? Y/N □ Did I stick to session times? Y/N □ Did I execute only valid setups? Y/N □ Did I maintain risk percentage? Y/N If all YES = system working If any NO = identify what emotional trigger caused break The psychology exploit: Prop firms WANT you to make decisions during pressure Because humans SUCK at that Your brain at 8:00am planning Sunday: - Calm - Rational - Can see long-term - Makes good decisions Your brain at 8:00am after 3 losses: - Panicked - Emotional - Can't see past next trade - Makes terrible decisions The prop firm bet: "This trader will break their own rules when pressure hits" And 99% do The system exploit: Make ALL rules when calm Execute rules when emotional Never deviate The results: Before pre-decision protocol: - Pass rate: 2/10 challenges (20%) - Reason for failure: Broke rules during losing streaks - Made decisions: During emotional pressure - Survival time: Average 8 days After pre-decision protocol: - Pass rate: 8/10 challenges (80%) - Reason for 2 failures: Legitimate bad variance - Made decisions: Sunday before pressure - Survival time: Pass on first try The implementation: WEEK 1: Write your rules Sunday Example rules: - Trade Mon/Wed/Fri only - 8am-11am window only - 2 trades max per day - 0.5% risk per trade - Only take A+ setups WEEK 2-4: Execute those exact rules No adjustments No "but this setup looks good" No "I can handle one more trade" Just pure execution The prop firm pattern they exploit: Day 1-3: Trader follows rules, doing well Day 4: First losing day, emotional pressure builds Day 5: Trader breaks own rules trying to "make it back" Day 6-8: Revenge trading spiral Day 8: Account blown The pre-decision protocol defense: Day 1-3: Following Sunday rules Day 4: Losing day hits, emotions spike Day 5: Want to revenge trade BUT rules say "Mon/Wed/Fri only" and it's Thursday Laptop is closed Can't break rules even if wanted to Day 6: Back to following Sunday plan Day 15-20: Pass challenge The psychology: You WILL want to break your rules That's guaranteed The question is: Can you physically prevent yourself? Pre-decision protocol makes it PHYSICAL: - Platform closes after 2 trades - Airplane mode during session (can't check Discord for "confirmation bias") You can't break rules that are physically enforced The traders passing 8/10 challenges: They use pre-decision protocol The traders failing 8/10 challenges: "I'll be disciplined in real-time" No you won't Your brain can't handle pressure decisions Nobody's can Stop trying to be disciplined during chaos Start making decisions during calm Then execute them like a robot The prop firms don't want you to know this: Their entire business model relies on traders making emotional decisions When you remove emotional decision-making: You pass They lose a customer But they pay out Because that's the game You're not fighting the market You're fighting your own impulse control Pre-decision protocol removes the fight By removing the option Implementation checklist: □ Sunday evening: Write all rules for week □ Print them out physically □ Set platform to enforce limits □ Phone airplane mode during session □ Execute like robot □ Review daily compliance □ Never adjust mid-week That's it That's the system

@joeytee_ I’m young (25) and like the idea of compounding the dividends Also hold a fair share of VOO and VTI for the long term in 401k

I’m genuinely confused why anyone would invest in $SCHD It makes no sense.

Been trading in my personal account for some time now, but @Topstep no activation brought me back. So far it's going well
