“Now I’ve Hit My Wholeness… I’m Integrated” - Humanity w/ George Papazov

“Now I’ve Hit My Wholeness… I’m Integrated” - Humanity w/ George Papazov

Author: China Shop Productions September 8, 2024 Duration: 1:20:11

George Papazov, founder of Trade Pro Academy and early influence in both Kyle and Cleo’s futures journey joins the Humanity of Trading Series to talk about the reasons why he left to pursue a passion project… and why he’s come back to trading. The concept of integrating different parts of oneself is explored, as George explained how he realized he was missing an important need in his life. He shares his fears of the impact that returning to day-trading would have on his personal life as we discussed what style of trading he is executing now. He also talks about the importance of having a supportive partner and how NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) has helped him improve his mindset and performance. In the final part of the conversation, George reflects on the connection between organization, structure, and freedom in both trading and life. He emphasizes the importance of financial stability in achieving true freedom. He also discusses how trading attributes, such as risk management and humility, have influenced his approach to music. George shares his plans to find a balance between trading and music, focusing on longer-term trends and actively managing his portfolio. He expresses his love for the trading community and the sense of unity it brings.
