“I did not follow the rules and discipline I set for myself…”

Feedback in:

Hi Michael,

Hope you are doing great. I am a follower and listener of your podcast for may be 15 years, I read Trend Following book when it first came out and it has been my mantra even since, it was recommended by Steve Sjuggerud at Stansberry Research. I will not say I have made a lot of money in stocks but I have made decent money and mainly gained confidence in trading, when I have lost, it is because I did not follow the rules and discipline I set for myself and because I was distracted with other life endeavors.

To that end, I am looking to transform myself in various areas of my life including trading and could use your help, I listened to your Nov 2025 podcast about transformation and am very interested. Pls let me know the details and next steps.

Look forward to hearing from you

Thanks,
Mitesh
