. How can you expect results if you do not apply yourself? The stock market is driven by speculation, speculation that demands your time, effort, and willingness in order to understand, interpret and capitalize on it.

Everyday that you expect results requires you to apply yourself. With experience, that is, after a long period of 'applying efforts', you can expect a break. That is because you work towards a visible and reachable goal, financial success. And you are the only one who can define what 'success' means to you. The stock market is merely a brilliant tool that can help you get there.
