Quote from Selwyn

"Most people can search the internet or read books on 'how-to' information or what successful people have achieved. Very few people know how to do the inner search to learn how to deal with their own emotions, a critical feature when trading financial instruments, for example. My own passion is to find ways to expand consciousness and to help others in their quest for self-mastery. I wrote a book called Mind, which is a spiritual approach to dealing with various life aspects."
