I hired a plumber to help me restore an old farmhouse, and after he had just finished a rough first day on the job: a flat tire made him lose two hours of work, his electric drill quit and his ancient one ton truck refused to start. While I drove him home, he sat in stony silence. On arriving, he invited me in to meet his family. As we walked toward the front door, he paused briefly at a small tree, touching the tip of the branches with both hands.
When opening the door he underwent an amazing transformation. His face was wreathed in smiles and he hugged his two small children and gave his wife a kiss. Afterwards he walked me to the car. We again passed by the tree and my curiosity got the better of me. I asked him about what I had seen him do earlier. “Oh, that’s my trouble tree”, he replied “I know I can’t help having troubles on the job, but one thing’s for sure, those troubles don’t belong in the house with my wife and the children. So I just hang them up on the tree every night
As you know – we are huge fans of PTJ – Paul Tudor Jones who has been successfully trading since he started Tudor in 1980. Tony Robbins has been coaching him every single week for something like 25 plus years.

LONDON – Assets Under Management (AUM) at the top 25 global wealth management operators grew 17.0% on average this year, finds Scorpio Partnership’s 2018 Global Private Banking Benchmark. This means the top 25 operators now collectively manage USD16.2 trillion.
Just as a rising tide raises all boats, wealth managers were able to capitalize on favorable market conditions in 2017 as a core driver of growth. The FTSE All-World Index advanced nearly 22% during the year and global economic growth was estimated to have reached 3%, an uptick from 2.4% in 2016.
However, there were also positive indicators that firms achieved greater success in drawing additional assets from new and existing clients in 2017. On average, the contribution of Net New Money to AUM, which was flat in 2016, rose to 4.3% in 2017 for those firms who declared this data.

This is a terrific lookback article written in 2013 that should really give us some food for pause – thought and rethinking of the way Financial Advisors do business …..
so given that we know that “this time it’s different” is never actually true – surely advisors should look at changing their business models before the next inevitable downturn or sell-off.
“By 2020, non-fiduciary advisors — i.e., brokers — will be well on their way to complete extinction,” says Larry Miles, principal at AdvicePeriod in Los Angeles. “Consumers will have finally rejected advisors who are not legally obligated to do what is in their clients’ best interests.” ….
mmmm … interesting

Are You Getting What You Want Out of Life?
If you are not getting what you want and desire out of this World, perhaps it is because you are not clear about your outcome.
My husband reminded me of this recently when I was running a half marathon. You see, I had a goal, but for the month prior to the race I hadn’t trained properly and was also experiencing some bizarre pain in my right foot. On the night before the race, I told him that although I had a goal to beat my previous time by 7 minutes, I would now be happy if I could even repeat my last time. He looked at me and said, “you can do this, you just need to DECIDE”. It was hard to refute this, since those very words had been my mantra with him and my boys forever. He said, get your eyeliner out and write your time on the mirror in our hotel bathroom. I thought about it, and then got the pencil out. I was tempted to write a time that was a few minutes slower than what I initially hoped to achieve – but th
