PLEASE READ

Guys and gals, let me take a minute before I head back to work to talk about something that bother's me to a degree with some post i have read and heck even wrote myself. Please don't take what I'm about to write the wrong way. This post is about what is really important in our lives and how WE as a TEAM should conduct ourselves in our plays.

I have found myself writing post that sometimes seem very arrogant and prideful. I've read other post here with that same type of attitude to what we are trying to accomplish. FLD's I know may seem like we are going after crooks that steal and etc and we are. However, when we start showing the same type of behavior as the MM's (pride, arrogance, etc), it really makes us no different then they are. It actually puts us on the same page as they are. That is what I want us all to avoid.

Look, we are all here to to complete a common goal, to put some right back in ALOT of wrongs. To do this, we have to seperate ourselves from the mindset and thinking of those who have wronged us. What I mean by that is keep a positive mindset and don't allow money, greed, arrogance, pride, and etc blind you from keeping you from who you really are inside.

I know this may sound fruity and crazy to some but let's all face some facts. Each one of us here has emotions and goals. To allow ourselves to start slipping into MM's mindsets, we really are becoming them. That is what PRIDE will do to people. It leads to a path that makes us no different then the crooks. HUMILITY AND HUMBLENESS is what makes us different then the crooks. That is what makes the TEAM worthwhile to be a part of as well as the friendships that is created!!!! Everyone of us has been wronged one way or another in the market. So we should all know what humility is and understand and appreciate what we do gain.......

I'm speaking for myself as well. I have found that some of the things I have said here lately are very prideful and arrogant and for that I do appologize to each one of you! Let's do this thing the RIGHT WAY WITH THE RIGHT MINDSET AND THE RIGHT EMOTIONS!!!! This is the real test of this TEAM's character and I for one am very proud to be a member of such a well oiled machine. Let's just keep it on point and show the world that we mean business THE RIGHT WAY!!!

Thanks for listening to me and even if you don't agree, I still thank you for being a part of this. This has the chance to be EPIC but what is really EPIC is the nature in how we succeed.......
