Fire in The BellyBelieve In Yourself, Be Curious and Dream - Interview with Alex Cunningham
In this episode, Pete speaks to Alex Cunningham, living in Miami in Florida. He is a 26-year-old sports medicine professional and is also a podcaster, trainer and trader. They discuss trading, podcasting, family, business and what it takes to get you where you want to be in life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- In trading, no one is right. Some people believe their way is the right way but trading is similar to sports, you have players who play the game totally differently but they are both successful.
- Alex hosts the podcast, Market Adventures, he started this back in June 2020 and it is all about trading and investing. Alex believes anyone who feels they have something to say should podcast, there are endless ways of podcasting and like trading, there isn’t a right way to do it so anyone can get involved.
- Fire in the belly to Alex means something that you can’t stop being curious about. Trading, making money and track and run are his fire in the belly. He has also found maintaining control over what he is able to influence and developing himself personally aid him in his journey.
- Adam’s plan is all about sowing the seeds to have more freedom later in his life. He dreams of the day where he can have complete control and freedom of every single day.
- Alex did well in education. He showed up, did homework and assignments and memorised what he needed to. He found college more difficult as he had to study more but once he figured this out he did well.
- We are constantly conflicted by societies standards. We will find ourselves in situations where we know deep down what the right thing to do is but we don’t tap into that and instead look for easy answers or even excuses.
