What I learned with one year of day trading?

I am just one year old in this market. Have mix of experience. But learned hard lessons.
 I wanted to be full time trader. So started with just 1000 rupees. Lost all within weeks. Next thousand lost within few weeks. Next and next up to 5-6 times. Just  I keep putting 1000 rupees and loss almost continued for six months.
Next three months losses streak changed into losing slowly and slowly. And next  three months to breakeven and gaining profit. Time was spent with sleepless night and deep thought. Should I continue or end? But the conscious mind keep me forward to learn and grow.
Most mistakes that derail most of us from this business is big losses. Which happen due to not putting stoploss or thinking that it will turn your side and  get to your level. So, you don't exit. Losses pile up more and more. Finally account wiped out. You feel this is not cup of my tea.
What we have to grasp is that stock market is a place of risk like any other option. But We think that once we enter a trade. we will have just profit, no loss. This is what seen in our view. Which is a big mistake.
It's a game of probability. Even winning 6/10 can build great profit. Nevertheless work on seeing the possibility of wrong as well as being right. And how much you can bear loss. In the event of making losses. Once trend formed miracle don't happen. It's better to book loss. Especially before big one. Save your capital. Stay away from big loss.
All can be learnt with experience. When to book profit/ loss.
Happy trading!!!

Why network marketing fail to attract people?

Here is the story I have to share: It was early August month2013. when first time I was invited to an event. Told by the associate that it's youth event where you can interact and talk alot about entrepreneurship & innovation. Lots of big businessman. Bright people, have  reach direct at the top class businessman that you see in the newspaper or TV. I got amazed that really i will get such a chance to interact. I got attraced having no real first hand experience of such things before. I joined them and got there on time. Really they engaged me and gave me some insight. I agreed all the terms and finally somehow convinced my mother and joined with certain amount. There were lot more promises like a politician make. So many things seems that yes i wann be there. But how was the question? That drive to take their path. Which I never liked to sell their stuff. which doesn't attract me do that. Just bcoz you need to get ahead you have to do that.
