1. I am nearly too big to fly, commercial.

5. “One of the great tools of trading is the stop, the point at which you divorce yourself from your emotions and ego and admit that you’re wrong. Most people have a tough time doing this, and instead of selling out a losing position, they’ll hang on hoping that the market will realize the error of its ways and behave as they believe it should. This attitude is usually self-destructive, because as Joe Granville used to say, “the market doesn’t know whether you’re long or short and it could care less.” You’re the only one who’s emotionally involved in your position. The market’s just reacting to supply and demand and if you’re cheering it one way, there’s always somebody else cheering just as hard that it will go the other way.”

-Martin Schwartz, Pit Bull (Amazon)

5. “If you’ve been marked by what might have been, you don’t forget. You know the day, the years. You know when the baby would have been born. You know exactly what anniversary you’d be celebrating, if the wedding had happened. You know exactly how old she’d be right now, if she were still alive. You’ll never forget the last time you saw your child, or the last time cancer was a word about someone else’s life, or the day that changed absolutely everything. It makes the calendar feel like a minefield, like you’re constantly tiptoeing over explosions of grief until one day you hit one, shattered by what might have been.”

–Shauna Niequist, Bittersweet (Amazon)
