This is a YouTube video titled "Trading Psychology - Allowing Yourself To Succeed" containing a talk by Andrew Huberman from October 20, 2022. The content focuses on the mental challenges traders face, particularly overcoming self-doubt and allowing oneself to succeed by forgiving past mistakes and embracing the learning process.
One of the biggest challenges that a lot of traders have with their trading and mentally allowing themselves to succeed is exactly that. It's just playing after you've been struggling with it for so long and that self doubt and loss of confidence has set in. Even just allowing yourself to be successful can be one of the biggest challenges and really it's a lot about forgiving the past allowing yourself to to have been not perfect at it and not succeeding understanding hey there was a learning curve to it and you had to go through the learning curve but just plain allowing yourself to be human and say okay yeah for a long time there I sucked but the thing is it was new and you had to do the learning so allow yourself to have been not great at it for a while and say okay but I can do better and I will get there. So it's that kind of an allowing where you really need to do that just be forgiving with yourself.
