A lot of the toughest battles are won in the mind, so having a mindset that will be able to get you through the ups and downs of share trading (and property) is crucial! So how do you navigate the risks and form a mindset that will ensure your success?
In this interview with The Investor Lab podcast and Goose McGrath, Louise will tell you exactly how to accomplish this.
Like property, trading comes with risks and challenges, and developing the right mindset to combat any doubt that will prevent you from reaching your goal is incredibly important. So how do you navigate the risks and form a mindset that will ensure your success?
Goose and Louise talk about Louise’s beginnings, what makes trading so appealing despite the risks, the Kelly Principle, developing a “success” mindset to get you through the ups and downs, the characteristics you need to succeed, and more.

Fact Check
At around the 41 minute mark, Louise mentions a poem that meant a lot personally to her. Here is that poem by Albert Camus:
“In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm. In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer. And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back.”
Beautiful isn’t it!
