Elizabeth Gilbert on nurturing creativity and managing emotional risk

Awesome talk by Elizabeth Gilbert on nurturing creativity and managing emotional risk.  Not only do I relate her views to trading but also to life.  The longer I live and trade I realize that people/traders who can manage their emotions and their mind are the most successful and happy.  Olay! Enjoy :)

Remembering The Father of Fractals

I was e-mailed a great article from brain pickings and thought I'd share it.  The link to the article also has a TED talks with Mandelbrot that is great if you have time to watch it. 


"I prefer the word roughness to the word irregularity because irregularity — to someone who had Latin in my long-past youth — means the contrary of regularity. But it is not so. Regularity is the contrary of roughness because the basic aspect of the world is very rough.” ~ BenoĆ®t Mandelbrot
