Welcome back to the "Day Trading for Beginners Podcast," where we document the journey towards becoming a full-time day trader. Today we're pausing for a moment to reflect on the first 3 months of our journey. As we hit this milestone, it's a perfect time to assess our progress against the 6 Month Blueprint we've set out with and discuss the mental resilience required to pursue day trading or any ambitious goal.

This blueprint is our roadmap for the initial months of our day trading journey, covering everything from the basics of the stock market to setting up a brokerage account and intros to options and technical analysis.
The Importance of Mindset in Day Trading
In one of our previous episodes focused on mindset, we discussed the ups and downs you'll likely face on this journey. March has been a challenging month for me personally, juggling family commitments and unexpected hurdles while staying committed to learning day trading. It's a stark reminder that success is not a straight line but a path filled with setbacks and victories. Remember, persistence and adaptability are key to overcoming the valleys of despair.
Where We Stand
Over the past three months, we've covered a wide range of topics:
Looking ahead, we plan to explore the intricacies of technical analysis and the importance of maintaining a trading journal. While we have laid a solid foundation, there's still much to learn, especially about options and developing effective trading strategies.
Staying Consistent
The journey to becoming a proficient day trader is long and requires consistent effort. Regardless of the challenges life throws at us, it's crucial to keep moving forward, learning something new every week. Join me in committing to this process, knowing that each small step takes us closer to our ultimate goal.
