  • EP 214: The Principles that Drive Elite Performance w/ James King
    It was 2017 when I first spoke with James King [Ep 133], around the same time he’d left a London-based commodity trading firm, where he worked as Performance Director.
    Since then, he’s continued advising to proprietary traders and fund managers, specialist military units and professional sports teams, as well as organisations. While also presenting case studies on elite performance at several ivy league universities.
    More recently, James has put the final touches on his first book Accelerating Excellence, in which he reveals four foundational principles that’ve been proven to drive elite performance (and serve as the focal point for our chat today…)
    00:00 - Intro
    02:06 - Excellence: More than Ambition, Hard Work, Talent...
    16:17 - 1: Self-Concordance, Sweet Spot
    29:45 - 2: Skill Acquisition, Technical Preperation
    44:10 - 3: Delivering on Demand, Control Under Pressure
    51:08 - 4: Sustaining Success, Continuous Improvement
    1:00:55 - Outro

    Really good interview. When you asked him why some traders hesitate; another good answer is because they don't trust their strategies! This comes after the learning phase, probably after they already experienced a huge loss that made them decide that they will learn more before going in again. They know what is possible so they try to avoid having that huge F... up again. At this point they have lost that child like state of mind {when you're not scared to just go for it} They should realize that they have learned something new, they should test their strategy 20-25 times. They can find a percentage rate from testing their new strategy then apply that trust to the new edge that they have in the market.

    The opposite of "symptoms" is "signs"
    I believe that is what he means to convey
    To boil it down, I learned the most here from the strength-interest-value points. I must hone in on my strengths, interests, and values. That is rich! I have only ever learned with those things in mind, as a logically impaired creative genius. Now I will study myself to see if I can get myself to value and take interest in something I normally do not, even if it is a strength. I will also try to make some weakness my strength that I value and am interested in (like math and programming languages).
    "If it takes you 10,000 hrs, you've got a sht methodology."
    This stuff isn't about trading as much as about life in general.
    Focus on long-term gains, avoid quick wins/fixes. Practice over theory, so doing is better than thinking about doing. Don't expect to be led by the hand and don't expect people to make it easy to understand; learn things yourself because it's on you to discover it for yourself. Challenges must stretch your character; We must go through a period of expanding our capacity in order to adapt to a superior level. "If it doesn't happen on the pitch it doesn't happen during practice." So make sure your practice matters/has real world value. (I read about this in Bruce Lee, Miyamoto Musashi) "Create uncertainties." Get out your comfort zone and get ready for any situation that may come, even/especially if they will overwhelm you. Variability; learning is not mindlessly repeating solutions, it's mindfully searching for new solutions.
    More people die coming DOWN the mountain vs. climbing up. Be careful not to get cocky before the game is over. Don't downplay the role of randomness in your success. Continuity bias makes us vulnerable to slow and silent doom.
    Such a good podcast.

    James is the first I've heard debunking the 10,000 hour nonsense rule! It seems everyone harps on the 10,000 hours but like he says if it takes you 10,000 hours to become excellent at certain things - something is majorly wrong! Thanks for being real James!

    Guest suggestion:
    Rob Smith, creator of "the strat". I am a beginner trader, and been learning how to trade for 5 months now. It felt like over night, after I learned the strat, I gained a huge edge. It is nothing at all like traditional technical analysis. I personally think beginners should learn the strat instead of technical analysis. Anyways, I really look forward to when you get Rob on your podcast ;)
