Mastering Your Silent Partner

Kardec Trader explains how your emotional brain, the silent partner, hijacks rational trading decisions without you noticing. Watch for physical signs like tenseness and breath-holding that show it's taking over. Master it through observation, not by fighting it.
Chapters
You have a silent partner all the time in your trading, whether or not you recognize it or not, he's with you. He's just beneath the threshold of your awareness. You wouldn't even notice him, okay, because he's so tame. He's so very tame. And yet at the same time, you're sitting there thinking, I'm being logical, I'm being illogical. Then suddenly, out of nowhere something happens. And suddenly it's an 800 pound gorilla just charging and you're going, what happened? What happened? I was so together, I, I had everything together. Well, you've just met, you've just met your silent partner. And at that time, you discover something. He's not just your silent partner, he's your majority partner. This is when you begin to recognize that you, your thinking brain has a partner. And it's called your emotional brain. Your, you don't see that it's operating beneath the surface of your awareness, but there it is. It's very much your partner. And the key is, how do you become aware of something that you don't know how to see.
You don't know how to notice? Well, friends, until you do, you're going to be stuck in a serious problem. You're going to get someplace, you're going to say, I've gotten here, I'm so logical, I have it together. And then all of a sudden, boom. It's like a submarine torpedoes you. You didn't see it coming. This is the power of your silent partner. And my question is, do you want to learn how to partnership with it? Do you want to learn how to master and work with this silent partner? Or do you want to keep it the way it is? Where you think you're being logical then only to find out that you're hijacked by emotion once again.
This is the way it is, friend. You don't see your emotional brain in operation. That's the whole point. You're caught up in the thinking brain, all that talk, all that thinking. The emotional brain doesn't operate like that. It sees an environment. And when it sees something in that environment, suddenly it just triggers emotion and the emotion takes over. That's the way your silent partner works. You didn't see it coming because you don't know how to see. You don't know how to look for that very thing called your silent partner Here. What I want you to do is start noticing. You can start recognizing the silent partner in your action if you learn to observe him. Can you actually start seeing the tenseness in your Body you trade. Can you start noticing how you hold your breath? Can you notice how you become hyper focused? Those are the indications that the silent partner has awoken and you're still not aware of him and is about to take over the trading mind. The key, friends, is you don't conquer your silent partner. You don't conquer the emotional brain. You master it. You begin to recognize that the limbic system, that emotional brain has produced emotional learning. And in that emotional learning, it's just seeing a situation and firing a circuit that produces a pattern. Okay.
Thinking has nothing to do with it. Thinking happens far, far down the line. But the emotion of the silent partner has already triggered, and you're already in the cascade going down that hill. Your job is to learn how to recognize that, oh, I do have this silent partner. I know how he operates. I can begin to discern him. And instead of ignoring him and trying to push him away, I'm going to learn how to pull him forward and to cool him down, to calm him down so that he doesn't have to hijack the mind. Do you want to learn how to do this? Well, if you do, you're in. Good luck. Because we teach you how to do that. We teach you how literally to be able to first spot the silent partner called your emotional brain, to recognize that it's operating there all the time and what to do about it. Not to fight it, not to try to conquer it, but to take it and say, this needs to be a new partnership. I have to learn how to work with this part of myself so that I can move into the next level of my trading. The good news is that it's teachable.
