opportunity has absolutely nothing to do with your last trade. Each trade is simply an edge with a
probable outcome, and statistically independent of every other trade. If you believe otherwise, then I
can see why you're afraid; but I can assure you that your fears are completely unfounded. As you can
see, one person's perception of risk can easily be perceived as irrational thinking by another. Risk is
relative, but to the person who perceives
it in the moment, it seems absolute and beyond question.
When the child encountered his first dog, he was bubbling with excitement and curiosity. What is it
about the way our minds think and process information that could automatically flip the
boy into a state
of fear the next time he encounters a dog, even if it's months or years later? If we look at fear as a
natural mechanism warning
us of threatening conditions, then what is it about the way our minds
function that would automatically tell the boy that the next encounter with
a dog is something to be
afraid of? What happened to the boy's natural sense of curiosity? There is surely more to learn about
the nature of dogs than this one experience
has taught him, especially in light of the fact that our minds
seem to have an unlimited capacity for learning. And why would it be virtually impossible to
talk the
boy out of his fear?
