Description

Most traders don’t blow up because they lack strategy — they fail because they can’t wait. The Urgency Trap tricks you into clicking early, chasing moves, and sabotaging your edge.

In this episode, you’ll learn how to flip urgency into patience and turn waiting into your most profitable skill. I’ll share how to spot your personal patience wiring, everyday ways to train it, and three practical exercises you can start using immediately to slow down, stay disciplined, and finally trade with control.


Key Takeaways:

  • Why urgency is fear in disguise — and how it hijacks traders.

  • How patience protects your edge and multiplies your consistency.

  • Three actionable drills to train patience like a muscle in life and trading.
