Link: TraderFeed – Overcoming Performance Anxiety
Dr. Steenbarger recently issued a call for submission for readers to describe their personal methods for overcoming fears and performance anxiety in trading, and they responded with some wonderful responses. Dr. Brett has arranged these responses in two posts (so far):
First Post on Reader Reviews on Performance Anxiety
Second Post on Reader Reviews on Performance Anxiety
He will soon be posting his perspective on the issue so be sure to check back frequently.
This is a post that you need to bookmark, print, and refer to to see which method – if you do not have one yet – is best for you to handle pressure and stress. Each person is different and has different experiences and a different personality, and thus there is no one coping method that works for all people. It is important to know this and to try different techniques to see which technique lines up with your unique psychological composition.
There are plenty of examples in those posts, and positive action often trumps positive thinking so get started today!
