Create a Self-Contract

Create a Self-Contract

"The best investors make a habit of putting procedures in place, in advance, that help inhibit the hot reactions of the emotional brain." - Jason Zweig

Ulysses famously had his men tie him to the mast to prevent himself from heeding the Siren's call. Pre-commitment contracts help you execute on your intentions and control your emotions. Create a contract in advance to take or refrain from certain actions. Decide what to do while you’re thinking sober before the market tests your resolve.

To record a self-contract:

1. Click the add button at the home journal and select “Create Self-Contract”.

2. Record the details of the contract with yourself.

3. Click Post.

Contract Created!

Once you post the journal entry, the contract will be captured and tagged to the idea entered.
