From The Ground Up: A Journey of Mindset, Failure, and Self-Belief

By Schyler Raye

From the Ground Up is not a book about quick success or perfect strategies. It's a story about losing direction, questioning identity, and learning how mindset shapes every outcome-both in life and in the stock markets.

Growing up in Northern Ontario, Sky was surrounded by clear expectations and limited examples. When injuries ended the one path she had committed to, she was forced to rebuild without guidance, certainty, or a roadmap. Trading entered her life not as an answer, but as a mirror-exposing fear, ego, impatience, and the illusion of control.

Through disillusionment, false mentors, wasted time, and starting over from zero, this book explores the deeper psychological lessons behind failure and growth. It examines why forcing outcomes leads to loss, why discipline matters more than motivation, and why integrity and self-awareness are the real foundations of long-term progress.

This is a book for anyone who has felt behind, lost, or pressured to figure everything out without examples to follow. It's about resetting your psychology, building patience, and learning to move forward even when clarity hasn't arrived yet.

From the Ground Up is a reminder that you won't always have someone to look up to-and that sometimes, the person who needs to become the example is you.
