If you want to know more about me as a person continue reading. I wish you all the success in the world.  

As I stared at my reflection, my face flushed and beads of sweat streaming down my forehead, I assessed my progress. Clutching a weight in each hand, my exhausted arms quivered. My physique was impressive—bigger, more toned, and muscular than ever. Despite pushing myself to the brink, I couldn't shake the feeling that I still wasn't good enough.


NOT GOOD ENOUGH
  • FOR MY GIRLFRIEND, WHO BROKE UP WITH ME.

NOT GOOD ENOUGH
  • FOR MY FATHER, WHO WAS WAITINGTO PROVE ME WRONG..

NOT GOOD ENOUGH
  • FOR THIS COUNTRY, WHICH BACKED ME INTO A CORNER AND GAVE ME SO FEW OPTIONS.

Facing the Inevitable: Returning Home to China

As my academic journey neared its conclusion, so did my authorization to remain in the U.S. With limited job prospects, I felt adrift. I once had a reason to stay – my ex-girlfriend – but she had moved on, leaving me to face an uncertain future.

I thought that hitting the gym daily would boost my self-worth, but as I stared at my reflection, I couldn't shake the feeling of worthlessness. The gym was just a diversion, similar to the countless nights spent studying the markets. Trapped in a dead-end night shift, which no other college student wanted, I finally discovered something thrilling to fill my time: trading became my escape route.

Making Trading Work: My Ticket to Stay in the U.S. and Defy My Father's Expectations

By carving my own path, I could break free from the future he envisioned for me and bring to life the incredible ideas my classmates and I used to dream about in school.

That was the master plan. But things took a turn when I invested my entire year's tuition and lost half of it in the blink of an eye. So, here I am again, at the gym, striving to prove my worth to myself.


Rising Strong: Overcoming Rock Bottom and Embracing Success

At this point in my life, I hit rock bottom. I was alone and felt like I had exhausted all my options. Soon, I'd be forced to go back to China and face the smug "I told you so" from my father. I would have to return to a place where conformity was the norm and individuality was suppressed. In America, I had the freedom to forge my own path.

Yet, even that seemed to be slipping away: No girlfriend. No money to invest. Completely broke after my father cut me off. With no options left, I took a leap of faith on one last move. If it didn't work, I'd have to sell my car and most likely head back to China. But if it succeeded, just maybe, I could create the life I had always dreamed of.

MAKING THE MONEY I DID, DIDN'T MAKE ME HAPPY.

I felt happier than I did during that low point in my life, but I would still look in the mirror and feel incomplete. This didn’t change until I started to help other people do what I do — just without all the mistakes, pain and wasted time and money.

I focused on three things:

Optimizing systems and strategies to maximize profit. I find most of the information out there overcomplicated and unnecessary. I hack these strategies, and rework them so they’re more efficient, effective and profitable.

img

Condense complex information into simple, actionable steps. I simplify systems, strategies and processes, so you don’t get lost in the details and miss the important steps that create 80% of the results.

MY STUDENTS WORK WITH ME

BECAUSE THEY APPRECIATE THE JOURNEY I’VE BEEN ON.

I’ve built a reputation on what to do, based on experiencing what not to. But to understand how I learned to do this — and where my resilience and persistence came from — we must go all the way back to where it all began…

MY EARLY LIFE

The problem with this was, I wasn’t the best student. From a young age, I would ask questions. Teachers would tell me, “this is what you need to do to get a good grade.” But I struggled with this. My mind always wandered to, “Why do we need to do it that way? What would happen if you put this and this together, instead?”

In China, teachers don’t like this. They want you to follow the rules, not question them. They told the other parents about me, who in turn warned their children to stay away from me. They were worried I might set a bad example. Looking back, this was where my anger began; the same anger that would later drive me to prove everyone wrong, and ignite my Trading career. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves…

I wasn’t the worst student in school.

With my father back home, life got harder. As with most traditional Asian families, we all had certain roles to play and expectations to meet. My father was to be the leader; my mother, the caregiver; and for me and my brother, we were expected to do well at school.

In certain subjects — like Physics and Chemistry — I often scored 100%. But in other subjects, which I didn’t enjoy — like Maths and English — I would perform poorly. It was during these subjects that I hated, that my curiosity took control. I questioned everything; I wanted to understand how and why something worked the way it did. I didn’t accept the answers they gave me, which led me to come up with some crazy ideas.

Like the time my friends and I built a new garbage can, which automatically recognized if something was recyclable or not. It was a great idea and it worked well. But nobody — not the teachers, nor our parents — cared, because it didn’t make money or would help us get into a good school. I grew more and more frustrated. Nobody seemed to care and nobody wanted to listen. All they wanted was for me to listen to them and do as they said.
