Could it be done ?

Years back when I first entered the trading universe, the crypto wasn't a thing yet. I was introduced to forex then futures. I saw a huge potential in trading, so much money could be made. But as a beginner I kept loosing, jumping from one strategy to another. But I felt like the dream of being rich and to be able to change my life is so close, I can almost reach it but I never could. Until I met a professional trader once, he was the first trader i meet in real life face to face who was actually making big money. He invited me in his house a couple times, and I saw with my own eyes how much money he makes. It was a life changing experience for me. I finally have a proof that it could be done. From that moment I stopped considering trading a dream, a fantasy and I started treating it like a very real thing. Only then I was able to make a huge progress and started winning.
