Monday Mindset and Market Goals for the Week
Monday, June 2nd. Hello everyone. Today I'm going for a short but essential format: a reminder of the basics. The ones we know, sometimes forget, and yet make all the difference. Whether you're a trader, investor, or just looking for a framework to move forward: this message is for you.
1. Discipline, the real kind
Discipline isn't glamorous. It's not exciting. It's not what sells dreams. But it's what allows you to last. Get up, get organized, move forward, even when you don't feel like it, even when motivation has disappeared. We all have excuses. Too much work, no time, not in the right mindset... okay. But the difference between those who stagnate and those who move forward is right here. It's the ability to do things even when you don't feel like it.
This morning, I did it. Last night too. And it's not because I was motivated. It's because I committed to moving forward. And if you're here, you have that too. So nurture it.
2. Set clear goals
You can't move forward without knowing where you're going. Every start of the week, I sit down and write:
- my three professional priorities,
- my three personal priorities,
- and one thing I want to test or improve.
No need to overdo it. The goal is a compass, not a ball and chain. Objectives should be simple, achievable, and above all, concrete. It's not "I want to be more productive," it's "I'll finish this project by Friday." There's a difference.
3. Markets: a turning point?
On the markets side, the week looks… interesting. The big question: do the indices have the capacity to rebound or will they continue to buckle under pressure? We've just come out of several tense sessions, with low volumes and clear hesitation at key levels.
Investors are waiting for clear signals. Macroeconomics remain tight. Market psychology is fragile.
Everything can change very quickly. In this kind of environment, don't panic, but don't improvise either. Stick to your method, respect your money management, and don't mistake speed for haste.
4. One rule: keep moving forward
This message isn’t here to sell you a miracle method. It's here to remind you that the hardest part isn't starting. It's continuing. And nobody will do that for you.
So maybe today you don’t feel like it. All the better. It's the perfect time to do it anyway. Because that's how you progress.
See you soon for the next episode. In the meantime: stay focused, stay committed. And above all, keep the flame alive.
