CHART CORNER 16: CHOOSE SPROUTS OR CHOOSE FRUITS WITH PESTICIDES
One day, a young man who was eager to learn, on his journey to self-discovery and search for success, sought the advice of a person considered the most successful in the region.
When he arrived, the young man saw him crouching in the garden under the apple tree. The young man thought to himself: His family is so rich, there is no shortage of workers, so what is the use of not resting and enjoying the house in the midday sun under this apple tree?
The boy walked closer and asked: “Hello. I want to ask you for advice on how to be successful?
The man looked up and said: "Come inside and wait for me." I am fertilizing this apple tree!”
The young man entered his spacious house and waited in the living room. A moment later the man walked in and apologized for keeping the boy waiting.
The young man wondered: "Why don't you let the workers do it? You are so rich, so why do you need to do these things anymore?"
The man just smiled…
The boy continued:
– I really want to be as successful as you. Can you give me advice?
- It's up to you, what will you choose? The man said.
The guy's face turned blank, showing clearly that I didn't understand what the hell he was talking about.
The man called the waiter to bring out two plates. One plate has a sprout, one plate has a beautiful red apple and then says "
– This is a sprout and an apple bought at the market. If you are hungry, which plate will you choose?
The boy immediately pointed to the plate with the red apple.
The man said:
“Most of us look at short-term things, just like when you're hungry, you just want to choose a flashy looking apple to munch on, not knowing that this apple from the market is full of pesticides. .
Immediately this pesticide will not kill him immediately, but day after day it accumulates and causes him to die slowly in pain from diseases such as cancer.
As for this sprout, you will need to take care of it and need time for it to grow, and people do not have the patience to choose this option if they only look at the apple and the hunger in front of them.
Just now you asked me why I'm so rich but I still have to work hard to take care of that apple tree, right?
Because I simply don't find it hard, for me it is the glory of labor, the enjoyable experience of seeing my achievements grow day by day.
It's the feeling of understanding more and more about how to grow apples, new knowledge,...
It's the feeling when an apple tree blooms and bears fruit...
It's the feeling of worry when an apple tree is infected with pests and hasn't found a cure yet.
And finally, look over there... - The man pointed out the apple tree heavy with red berries.
Every year I will have apples to eat, no need to buy them and they are completely clean, healthy apples."
The boy looked out at the apple tree and found a choice for his life...
This is still just a story I made up, but it represents many traders entering the market. Always want to have something ready to eat, want to group signals, want to copytrade to get immediate results.
But these things are like choosing that apple full of pesticides. It will slowly destroy your trading career.
So will you choose the sprout or the apple?
Thank you. I bought your course to learn, not only knowledge about trading, for me it is also a lifestyle, a process. Although it is still quite vague when looking for hours and still cannot understand the market structure. But I believe that time and effort will be the answer for me! Thank you, my precious teacher!
Thank you Trung for these meaningful stories. When I feel a bit discouraged because of continuous failure, this is like timely encouragement.

If I were you, I would choose the apple. After eating the apple, I will have a few apple seeds, carefully plant them and after a month there will be a few apple sprouts hehee
