There are two possible answers to this question, the first is the short answer, the second is the long … but the two answers are the same: No! A Forex course cannot and never will turn you into a pro (that’s the short answer). Do you still want the long answer? (I bet you do) …

Let me ask you another question, can MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) make you a professional mechanical engineer? Can any university ensure that you become a professional in your field?

I doubt it. And that is even logical, becoming a “pro” does not depend on the university you attend or the knowledge you acquire.

It is 100% up to you and how you implement and use that knowledge. You may have a lot of knowledge about architecture or chemistry, but if you don’t work hard to put all that knowledge into practice, you will be considered a “loser” regardless of whether you studied at MIT, Princeton or Harvard.

I fully agree that receiving high-level instruction will make things “easier”, but you also agree with me that graduation and a good diploma do not automatically give you “professional” status. There are many great Forex courses, but the point here is that none of those courses can guarantee your success in the wonderful world of trading.

The true secret of success in Forex trading is hidden within you, your main desires, beliefs and motivations. Success can only be achieved with a specific set of skills, and skills cannot be learned in courses or at the best universities in the world. Skills are something that develops with persistent hard work, time, and experience.

So what should I do? Well, my friend, if you are more of a lazy person, my personal recommendation is that you look for something else that fits you better.

But if you are a person who likes challenges and seeks opportunities for growth and personal development, and if hard work does not scare you, Forex can offer you exceptional opportunities to achieve personal growth and financial freedom.

So dear aspiring trader, if you want to speed up your process of becoming a professional trader, you need to focus on the following:

# 1: Obtain high-level and quality market knowledge

# 2: Reprogram your main desires, beliefs, and inner motivations.

# 3: Work hard to acquire the winning skill set:

Patience, discipline and self-control (mental / emotional).

We like to call this: the pyramid of Mind, Money and Method, where Mind is one of the most important parts of the puzzle. Building this pyramid is, in essence, the secret to success in Forex.
