Taking "The Dialogue of Awakening" as an example, for instance, the book says, "Anything you gain at the expense of your inner peace will not bring you lasting, genuine value. I suggest you take some time to quiet yourself, and mentally rehearse one by one the scenarios you hope will happen and those you fear will happen. Pay special attention to that sense of calm. I mean, when you mentally simulate various situations, notice which one brings you a sense of complete satisfaction. Then remember that scenario, hold it gently in your heart, without a trace of worry, let it happen, and fully believe it will occur. Remember, during the period when you are patiently waiting for it to happen and ultimately manifest, do not let worry interfere, because if your mind changes due to worry, what you expect to happen will change as well. You must give it complete freedom to develop, proceed effortlessly, and then don’t worry, ‘I don’t know if this is right, will it really happen?’ No fear of the future, no attachments—let it develop naturally. If this scenario is absolutely clear in your mind and remains unchanged, then it will inevitably happen." Choosing calmness and joy, we all know this. Usually, in trading and life, we remind ourselves, "I need to be calm and joyful first." But what we don’t realize is—(1) When facing a trade, or even at the moment of choosing to trade, we have already chosen unease, greed, or fear, and are no longer in a state of calm and joy. (2) During the holding process, even if we keep reminding ourselves to be joyful and abundant, when we see the market trend moving in the opposite or fluctuating direction, "worry" and "fear" have already intervened. So, although we seem to do a lot of work for calm and joy, in reality, we haven't truly achieved it. Our subconscious motivations have always been focused on money or trading, not on calm and joy. Even when choosing to do peaceful things, the motivation is still to make money. All these are upside down, and we even think we are practicing well. It shows that without enough deep awareness, we cannot see the subconscious issues, let alone solve them.
