Kardec Trader nearly quit after losing money early on, but kept going partly to prove wrong the friends who said trading isn't real and nobody makes money. He started around 2012-2013 when trading communities were just beginning.
And I did think about quitting it when I did lose the money. But I think what ultimately kept me going was I was very motivated by outside noise. So when outside noise was like, see, I told you. Because when I started trading, every person in my life, from friends to people I know and so on, were like, oh, trading is not real, it's not going to work. No one makes money in trading, right? And this is prior to what everyone sees now, right? Because in 2012, 2013, you also have to keep in mind, like Instagram was relatively new, right? Social media was relatively new. Everything was still on the rise at that point. They weren't a lot of people in the space that were trading or so it's hard to like reference or use someone as a reference even to like people in my life. Like, oh, look at these people, they're doing well, look at this person. So it was kind of like trying to do this thing that's non existent right now. Obviously over the years more and more people started doing it, so on, but it was more, more so like everyone says I can't do it and it's not possible. Okay, I'm going to figure out how to do it and how to make it.
