What We Mortals Can Learn From the 4-Minute Mile
Written by Matt Frazier
The experts said it couldn’t be done
According to legend, experts said for years that the human body was simply not capable of a 4-minute mile. It wasn’t just dangerous; it was impossible.
Further legends hold that people had tried for over a thousand years to break the barrier, even tying bulls behind them to increase the incentive to do the impossible.
In the 1940’s, the mile record was pushed to 4:01, where it stood for nine years, as runners struggled with the idea that, just maybe, the experts had it right. Perhaps the human body had reached its limit.
The breakthrough
On May 6, 1954, Roger Bannister broke the 4-minute barrier, running the distance in 3:59.4. As part of his training, he relentlessly visualized the achievement in order to create a sense of certainty in his mind and body.
Barely a year after Bannister’s accomplishment, someone else ran a mile in under 4 minutes. Then some more runners did.Now, it’s almost routine. Even strong high-schoolers today run 4-minute miles. [Note: this used to say "24 people broke the 4-minute mark within a year of Bannister. This is wrong; see the comments.]
What does this mean for us?
I don’t know about you, but for me, a 4-minute mile is probably not in the cards. (5 minutes? Maybe one day.) That’s not the point. The point is this: It took a sense of extreme certainty for Roger Bannister to do what was considered un-doable. He alone was able to create that certainty in himself without seeing any proof that it could be done.
But once he crashed through that barrier, the rest of the world saw that it was possible, and the previous record that had stood for nine years was broken routinely.
New Agers call it the Law of Attraction, scientists call it the RAS
I love this story. I don’t know how much of it is true; I sense that some of the details have become overblown in an effort to dramatize. Either way, it doesn’t matter. I’ve witnessed firsthand what a little certainty can do.
When you become certain of something, when every part of your makeup believes it because you focus on it every single day, something “magical” happens. Not New Age magical, but science magical. We have a system in our bodies called the reticular activating system (RAS) that helps our brains decide what information to focus on and what to delete.

This video series planted a seed in me a very long time ago now and was a key motivation for me. I haven't watched it in a while but I distinctly remember it shifting my mindset for the long term.

The Sword is a metaphor for your trading "edge".

Your psychology, mind set, resilience, etc is your armor, but I never saw a video for that. One without the other is futile.

Thanks to Al for showing me this a long time ago - hope you're doing well

Thank you very much.

Hope you are well and that your trading results continue to do well like in the past.Very impressive
