Key Lessons from the Gym
Louise says:
“There is a world champion powerlifter in his seventies who often works out beside me. To my amazement and trepidation, he decided to share with me the methods that allowed him to dominate in his chosen field.
“He watched what I was doing, then took me aside and said intently, in a thick Maltese accent, “You are a strong girl, but if you listen to me, you could be much, much stronger”.
“In every endeavour, there are some golden rules that lead to greatness. I was fascinated to compare these rules to trading and realise that there are many similarities.”
