Charles E. Kirk has been involved in the investment world for over 20 years. He is best known as the author of The Kirk Report, an analytical service that also curates important writings in the finance media. In recent years, he has also run an active mentorship program for developing traders and investors. Here is something he shared about his observations and perspectives from his mentorship perch.
"Those who have become successful in my experience always have a high level of tenacity. Those who fail, in my experience, do not. It is the one universal element that I have discovered when mentoring others as well as in my own personal experience.
Tenacity is the ability to not give up in spite of difficulty and results from any activity that are not desired. It is the ability to persist with determination toward something tirelessly and with absolute perseverance to the point that failure is not an option. It is the ability live through intense struggle, to see consistently poor results for long periods of time, and in spite of that, still keep learning and improving on working on your trading with tremendous enthusiasm in spite of those results".
