How good are you at managing your assets?
Over the past few years, I have received a few invitations to
attend seminars at high-class restaurants. Naturally, I have
attend a few and enjoyed a nice meal and at the same time
listened to expert financial managers teach me how to take
care of my assets.
Most of the speakers are overweight and do
not seem to be in the best of health. The audiences are mostly
elderly retired people and most of them appear to be on
medications, very few seem to be fit and healthy. It appears
that many peoples wholeness affluence has turned into
unwholesome effluence, when it comes to authentic, serene mind
& body asset management.
Maybe most people have lost sight of what
the real assets are in their lives and thus do not have
any ideas on how to manage them. For the majority of people,
experts and novices alike, the management of their health,
well-being, contentment, serenity, composure, happiness,
state-of-mind, body fitness, and genuine love of life is sadly
neglected.
Before you tell me that it is the job of
the medical profession to manage people's health, do you
really want to give up your health and peace of mind in the
hope medical counseling, medication and surgery can return
what you neglectfully give away? Sure, they can
fix-the-unhealthy-up. Set broken bones... Perform heart
operations etc. However, most medical practitioners do not
teach their patients how to organize their precious wholeness
assets! So who can?
Who can really look after your most
precious assets so that you compound your tranquility and
well-being, to earn the rewards of a happy, healthy, wealthy
life you deserve? The answer is ...
-
Only you have the most vested interest
to invest and mange your own well-being.
-
Only you will be the sufferer if you
screw-up and get it wrong.
-
Only you will become depressed and lose
interest in the things that mean the most to you, when you
are preoccupied in all the things that don't really
matter.
The only way any person can make sound
decisions and satisfactory judgments is by understanding who
they are, but firstly and most significantly, who they are
not.
Self-examination on a daily basis is
essential for any person who wishes to protect their heartfelt
assets, whilst obtaining the happy returns their lifestyle
requires.
Everyone is different ... Everyone has
their own wishes and aspirations ... Everyone has their own
personal slant on life ... Everyone should ask the
following ten questions to evaluate their asset management
requirements.
1. Do I allow stress to take away my joy?
2. Do I utilize my time wisely or is it misspent on
pointless pursuits?
3. Are my cloths and shoes made of the best natural
fibers and do they fit comfortably?
4. Do I drink enough water each day?
5. Do I eat the best nutritional food available?
6. Do I exercise enough each day to keep my body in
supple condition?
7. Is my mattress and bedding the best quality, I
can afford. Also, am I getting enough deep sleep each night?
8. Am I happy every moment of every day in work and play?
9. Is my mind clear and enlightened enough to make my own
financial decisions and do I research every investment before
I choose the one with the best value and returns?
10. Do I recognize who I am, apart from each role I play
every day?
Everyone needs to find out if the questions
open any skeletons in the corners of their mind that need to
be scrutinized.
Just like your personal monetary assets,
your portfolio of conditioned thoughts requires analyzing and
investigation. As with all good asset management, the old
thought mechanisms that do no work any more need to be
exchanged for newer, better, more interest serving awareness,
so the conscious mind can serve you better and produce a
higher yielding life of satisfactory bliss.
The more you practice your self-asset
management, the more questions you ask, the healthy and
happier you become and you know what ... Your financial assets
will also perform better.
If your financial mangers did not perform
well and lost you money, you would give them the boot and find
better management. So why stick with the thoughts that only
bring you depression, misery, ill health and emotions of low
self-esteem? Become your own asset super-intendent and mange
your resources with gratifying prosperity.
