仮に今が冬の時代であろうとなかろうと、私は今この瞬間を生きていたい。
さっきジョンとカルマの話をしたけれど、それについての考察。
カルマを自分の生きていく上での前提としようとも、そしてしないでいようとも、その決断とは別に、今、この瞬間にフォーカスして生きていくことは可能だ。
それは、因果関係について何度も本家のジョン（笑）が話していたのと同様に、必要のないcause-effect だと思った。
あることを今、起こってしまった結果の原因とすることは可能だけれど、だからってそれをする必要はないのだということ。
その明白な思考体系は、私にとっては夏の雷のようだった。
そう、それは家の大型テレビを一瞬にして壊すような強さを持つエネルギー。
イギリスの 新しい prime minister が決まった。
そしてそれと時を同じくして、私に焦りのステートが来た。
そう、今この瞬間にブログを書いているということは、その受動的とも取れるステートを、能動的に1度移し変えて、そこからステートチェンジをはかるという私の試み。
私の持つ強さは、ステートの選択なのだから。

Ken's systems...
In June we end the first half of our 2010 workshop line-up with our grand finale—Ken Long's two extraordinary workshops. And you can save $2,000 by registering for both right now.
Systems That Outperform the Global Markets Long Term (June 18-20)
Swing and Day Trading Systems for Equities and ETFs (June 22-24)
Ken is one of our best instructors. He treats his trading and teaching as he treats his martial arts, his coaching, and life in general: he pursues excellence to the point of mastery. He’s a thinker, philosopher, a tinkerer, and a leader. He applies what he learns faster and gets more done every day than any other person I know.
Here's what past attendee's have said about him:
"Very impressed. Ken over delivered on the course objectives and with a lot of his own real-world experiences, all with a good delivery and sense of humor. I leave feeling I can grow my account better than a market benchmark using a disciplined approach without a lot of weekly time and make a little extra using multiple strategies on ETFs." —David Holland
"It's worth the time and money. [Ken Long is] very accommodating and responsive. He deserves more than a 10." —Vito Pinto
"Some of the most practical money making advice on trading systems that I have ever received." —Tony Jackson, GA
Ken has reengineered his old “ETF 101” into a much more comprehensive approach to trading in his newest course, Systems That Outperform the Global Markets Long Term. He structures the course around three critical areas: self, systems, markets. These align very well with what I teach as the most significant areas to focus on in order to generate consistent profits.
Self
• Understand how to use your learning style profile to improve your trading.
• Leverage your trading strengths and minimize your trading challenges.
• Define realistic expectations and learning strategies to help you grow as a trader.
• Learn how to find a Mastermind group and how to benefit from their power.
• Build a business-like operations plan as a commitment to your trading results.
• Develop discipline and consistency through the use of checklists, rehearsals, and debriefings.
Systems
• Design an annual passive asset allocation strategy for a hands-off approach using part of your equity.
• Adapt the Elder Triple Screen for a highly reliable system.
• Learn how to place macro-economic trades in a systematic manner.
• Understand an effective weekly trend following strategy that rises faster than the market but gets safely in cash during periods of market risk or declines.
• Take advantage of opportunistic trades with a reliable, mechanical systems approach.
Markets
• Learn a market classification model for all market types so you know when to trade—and when to be out of the market.
• Understand a world market model to evaluate the relative performance of different markets because some market somewhere is always doing well.
• Appreciate longer term technical indicators for their help in identifying market trends outside of the noise.
• Learn to spot and profit from currency imbalances—without the risks and learning curve of becoming a currency trader.
• Discover the broad choices available in ETF types and how to use them profitably in trading systems.
Ken Long evolved from one of my best students in the 1990s to an outstanding long-term trading system instructor to one of the best intraday and swing traders that I know today. Now, he consistently makes single and double digit R-Multiple trades on a daily basis. Systems he teaches continue to have some of the highest SQNs that I have seen.
Last year, he reengineered his ETF 202 workshop where he now teaches his best short-term systems and demonstrates trading them live during the workshop. In Swing and Day Trading Systems for Equities and ETFs, Ken starts at a very high level of thinking about and looking at what the overall market is doing. He then goes down a level to focus in on which strategies would profit most in the current market conditions. Finally, he gets to ground level with a strong daily trading plan that defines entry points, position sizing strategies, and exits. He presents this masterful approach so you can understand what the market is doing at a very high level, as well as exactly how you are going to trade when the opening bell rings.
I encourage you to click through using the links below now to read more about both of these workshops. Each one has tremendous benefits for both newer and experienced traders alike. I highly recommend them!

Ken Long： Super Trader!!!
While Everyone Was Nervous,
One Great Trader Took 100R from the Market Last Week
by Van K. Tharp, Ph.D.
Ken Long is one of our best instructors at The Van Tharp Institute and he may have reached "master" status given his consistent performance over the long run and recent outstanding results. Ken always teaches the traders in our workshops to manage the left side of the trade—risk. Sometimes the right side (reward) works out okay and sometimes it works out fantastic, but the focus is always on managing the risk. He did that last week as he always does even as everyone else was concerned about the chaos. We even had one person tell us that he would never keep stops again because he was stopped out of everything on Thursday. Well, in that same week, Ken managed to make 100R.
Let’s look at how he did it. After a large multi-day move down that started about 8 trading days back ($74 range), Ken believed that a stock on his watchlist had overreacted and there was a chance one morning midweek last week that there could be a bounce back up. As he likes to say, “The market never reacts when it can overreact." Ken was watching for signs of a strong bounce up after the open - a very low risk entry. When he saw it, he went long on it for the first time just before 10 AM. As a result of the strength of the move, he entered four times that hour, maintained his normal risk controls and was able to pull 60R out of one trade. That’s truly phenomenal.
In another notable trade last week, Ken pulled in 22R. In addition to his other winning trades (and a few losses, too), Ken finished at 100+R for the week.
Ken fully acknowledges that his results were beyond the range of “normal.” In his own words,
“That 100R week is an anomaly. We did what we always do in the chatroom with good setups and risk control. This keeps in line with the idea that when we carefully control the risk, we leave in place the means for an upside ’catastrophic reward.’ Last week, the market decided to reward us in the moment.”
Regarding my comment on Ken achieving “master” status, he had this to say,
“I prefer to think that I was a pretty good student last week: I did my homework, came to class prepared, listened very carefully, and paid close attention to the tasks at hand. The market is the master and each day we have an opportunity to learn.”
While many of you are scared of this market, I have been saying for some time that the wild markets ahead present numerous opportunities.
Ken Long will be presenting two workshops in June for the Van Tharp Institute. If you want to know how Ken trades and the specifics of his 100R week, be sure to attend.
About Van Tharp: Trading coach, and author, Dr. Van K. Tharp is widely recognized for his best-selling books and his outstanding Peak Performance Home Study program— a highly regarded classic that is suitable for all levels of traders and investors.

Ken Long の話は前から聞いていたけれど、こうやって新しい机を前にしていると、トレーダー魂がうずいてきた。
彼がいくつものストップロスを味わった後でさえ、なおもストップをつけたエントリーを彼のシステムに従ってできたということが、彼のトレーダーとしての一面を如実に表している。
つまり、以前、ウィザードシリーズの Big Loss の本を読んで、そこに出ていた人たちが何百万ドルの損失をした後、すぐにそれを取り返すことができたのは、やはり彼らがある意味、特別だったからだ。
つまり、彼らにとってはその大損失でさえ、彼らのステートを崩すものではなかったということだ。
その負けは、勝つための一つの過程でしかなかったということ。
今の私のステートでKen の記事を読めたことは、自分にとって大きな機会が未来にあることを意味している。

今こうして机に向かっているということ
そこに到達するには約6ヶ月ほどかかったわけで。
そしてそこにはある日、突然到着したわけではなくて。
例えば、生まれたばかりの女の子が、"that baby" から "that girl" へゆっくりと、されど着実に変わっていったのと同じように、変化はゆっくりと起こることが多い。
もちろん、突然変異もあるけれど、そこに行くまでの予兆はある気がする。
仕事場の目の前は大海原がいいと思っていたけど、今の目の前にあるのは、昔から慣れ親しんでいた風景だった。
時代の変遷と共に住人が変わり、時には "small blue house" のような憂き目を見ながらも、また戻ってきてしまったのだ。
変化に敏感になるのと同時に、変わらないものにも目を向けたい。
さっき、失くしたと思っていた ipod が出てきた。
Steve Jobs が家のガレージで apple を立ち上げたのと同様に、私は何をここで立ち上げるのだろう。
そうか、麦は踏まれれば踏まれるほど、強くなるのか。
今、ふと後ろを見回した。
空間的に、タイムラインの配置になっているこの部屋がとても気に入った。
過去から続く今。
そして、家の先に繋がっている未来。
そこは自然と調和しているところ。
今見えるこの光の明るさは、時がたてば闇に隠れてしまうだろう。
それでも太陽は再び我らを照らし、また陽が昇るのだから。

CHASING BUTTERFLIES
MNCT 712
Chasing Butterflies
May 10, 2010
A couple of years ago, my family and I visited the Boston Science museum and spent some time in their wonderful butterfly garden. While there is much to see and do inside, the highlight of the visit is the chance to have a butterfly land on your hand, head, or shoulder.
What made the visit fascinating was noticing the different strategies people employed in an attempt to get the butterflies to land on them. Some people would chase the butterflies around the garden, perhaps in hopes of catching one and placing it on their shoulder long enough for a picture to be snapped and a memory to be created. Others seemed to be determined to get through the garden as pure observers, without ever having to touch or be touched by what it was they were observing.
The most successful group by far were those who did their best to become a part of the environment - that is, to stand relatively still in and amongst the flowers and enjoy the beauty all around them while waiting for a butterfly to grace them with a landing.
The nature of the transformative coaching work that I do is based on facilitating insights - those wonderful "aha" moments when you are able to see something about yourself, your work, or your life in a whole new way. People often call these "light bulb moments", because we see things in a new light that allows us to handle them with greater ease and grace than we could even moments before.
These are the insights which let us see straight through our problems until suddenly, we know what to do and our next action becomes crystal clear. Metaphorically, they're the moments where the "snake" becomes a piece of rope and the "Wicked Witch of the West" goes back to just being an annoying neighbor named Almira Gulch.
In the years I've been doing this work, I've noticed that insights are a lot like butterflies - while there are things you can do to make them more or less likely, it's ultimately not up to us when they land.
If you try to chase them through meditations, exercises, brainstorming, and other forms of "figuring it all out", the activity in your head seems as likely to scare them away as draw them near.
If you try to ignore your own wisdom and only learn through books, teachers, and other forms of other people's insight, you are very likely to succeed - at confusing yourself in a myriad of conflicting ideas about what it "really" takes to be happy and successful.
If you are willing to simply enjoy spending time "in the garden" - the quiet, reflective state of mind that occurs naturally for most of us while standing in the shower, watching the sunset, or lying in bed on a weekend morning, insights will often show up and land with a grace that takes us straight into a quiet knowing and a deeper feeling.
Sometimes it's hard not to chase after a butterfly, especially when the answers you're seeking seem to always be just out of reach. But as Franz Kafka said, no doubt in a moment of quiet contemplation:
“You do not need to leave your room. Remain sitting at your table and listen. Do not even listen, simply wait. Do mot even wait, be quite still and solitary. The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked. It has no choice. It will roll in ecstasy at your feet.”

プレゼンテーションのセッティング
トレードを通してプレップしていこう。
リアルなイメージで、法人として経費をどうやって使って、外国のセミナーも受けて、ベビーシッターのお金のことや、家賃のことも含めて、一つのフレームを作っていこう。
そこには、フランス語や中国語の外国語学習の費用も入れなきゃ。
もちろん、国内外のいろいろな場所へ行く費用も含めなきゃ。
今、やりたいことのパイプと、お金をがんがん稼ぐパイプとをつなげて、一つの虹を作っていかなきゃ。
それはハワイのダブルレインボーかもしれないし。
あの甘い香り、ふっと思い出しちゃうよね。
「冒険は、そこにある！」

私にとってのHalekulani
ジョンとカルメンの6日間が終わった。
腰の痛みは私にとっての体感覚を伴うメタファーになった。そしてその意味は、計り知れない。
何日目かにジョンがあのオーキッドのシャツを着ていた。
そして私は去年のコーチングのワークショップを思い出した。
そしてまた、ジョンがオーキッドのシャツを着てきた。
そして私はジョンに全てをさらっと伝えた。
「そのシャツ」と言った時点で、彼は覚えていた、それが私のアンカーになっているということを。
彼に全てを伝えたのではなく、彼にはそのことを伝えた。
今回の体験は、とてもとても不思議な感覚だった。
表面的に彼らにストレッチをされたわけではなく、私の内面で、私がものすごいストレッチをしていた感覚があった。
そう、今回のメタファーは、flying to the freedom だったんじゃないかな。
29日の朝、私の腰は電気が流れ、まったく使い物にならなかった。
1メートル動くのに、30分もかかった。それも這いつくばりながら。
それでも、何があっても、私が仮に死んでも、それでも私は出たかった。
そう、これこそが、コミットメントだと、体で知った。
ジョンたちがよく言うジャグリングのメタファー。
I know というフレーズ。
私は、コミットメントという言葉の意味を、今回、本当に体を通して理解したと思った。
そしてこの体験と友情と自信があるからこそ、私はここから走っていけるんだ。
今、決めた。
今度ハワイへ行くときは、れいれいと Halekulani へステイする。
それがどこに繋がるかなんてわからないけど、私はあの空間を体感したい、また。
そして、NLPと催眠、両方がありだと思った。
なんだか少しずつ、どしっとしてきた私。 これからも楽しみ！
