Best Investment that you can have

Best Investment that you can have

01

What is the best investment in life? A good answer is: invest in yourself.

No one can take away what is in you and investing in yourself will keep you motivated throughout your lifetime.

One is to invest in your own health.

Life is like a marathon. There will be pit stops along the way for us to recharge to carry on with the race and in order to continue the race, we will need healthy bodies. Long-term exercise and staying healthy not only make people full of vitality, but also strengthen their mental state and to face the all the difficulties and struggles in life.

The more effort you put into health today, the higher your happiness index will be tomorrow. A healthy body involves many hours of sweaty workouts in the gym; delicate and smooth skin is inseparable from a long-term self-disciplined lifestyle.

The greatest success in life is to live healthily. Your investment in your own health is your best weapon against time.

02

The second is to invest in your own capabilities.

The society is constantly evolving, and being content with the status quo is bound to stagnate. Only by running hard can we go further and further. There is a saying: "The meaning of growth lies in increasing life experience, enriching life experience, constantly being aware of introspection, and infinitely approaching maturity." In the past, we have walked a lot and have rich experience; in the future, we will continue to increase our experience. , Increase your own knowledge.

If you learn one more skill, you will have one more choice in your life. Keep learning and improve yourself is a compulsory course for every adult.

Whether it is reading a few books, obtaining new knowledge, or learning a new skill, gaining a new experience, it is all about widening the boundaries of life and enriching one's life.

The third is to invest in your own family.

I once saw a video. A man has a successful career, but his life is not comforting: when it is late at night, he is busy socializing with customers, leaving his wife alone at home; on weekends, he is busy making up for sleep, ignoring his children; even during meals, he was still busy with the company's business and had no time to talk with his parents.

The most regrettable thing in life is nothing more than putting a lot of energy and patience working hard outside and having no warmth from family after work. After all, family members are people who live under the same roof, sharing all your joy and sorrows. The journey of life will never be the pursuit of wealth only, and the warm and precious memories that can't be found if you miss it.

 

Wealth has a price, happiness is priceless. The happiest state in this life is nothing more than accompanying and chit chatting with my family.

Life is a process of continuous investment. You will reap where you pay. The greatest generosity for the future is to dedicate everything to the present. Only by sparing no effort to invest in yourself can you see returns in the future. I hope you will be full of energy, with a progressive career, and a warm family for the rest of your life.

Why insist on exercising? This is the best answer I have ever seen

Why insist on exercising? This is the best answer I have ever seen

01 

I have heard of such a sentence: "Exercise is an investment that will not make people regret. When you start to fall in love with exercises, health will also fall in love with you."

My aunt is a retiree but she still gets up at 6 o'clock every morning. She will run at the park connector, and then goes home to make breakfast and start her daily life. When the sun sets, she will go out and jog again, and she persisted for several years. Now that she is nearly 60 years old, she still looks like she is 30 years old. I asked her why she loves exercising so much. She said: "When I was young, I had a serious illness, and I learnt to cherish my life. I exercise every day to make me feel more at ease."

The body is the foundation of a happy life. If life is a series of numbers, the body is 1, and money, fame and fortune are the 0s at the back. Once there is no 1, there is no point in adding more zeros behind. Most people who like exercising have a healthier and stronger body. Exercising well and strengthening the body are the base for a person to cope with life.

02 

Exercise not only toughens the body, it also makes people feel more comfortable and relaxed.

I was browsing Facebook a while ago and I came across the posts from a friend. When she was young, she used to be very successful, but suffered a major setback ten years ago. She became depressed and obese for a period of time, and she did not dare to talk to others. When I came across her post recently, I found that she has fallen in love with fitness. Not only has her body regained fitness, she also looks very refreshed. She often shares her daily routine of running and exercising.

I wonder if you find that those who love to exercise seem to be more optimistic. They rarely worry about what happened, and they rarely fall into emotional troughs. Exercise can't help us solve the problems we encounter, but it can give people a way to release bad emotions and make people more positive.

Just imagine, after letting the sweat take away the gloomy mood, wont the person's state be more positive?

03 

The process of exercise is also the process of strengthening yourself. This is especially true for the seemingly boring repetition actions; you can develop good habits and overcome your weaknesses.

I came across this pair of parents; they were very worried about their child. He was timid and weak, and he did not dare to take the initiative to speak to his peers. The teacher suggested that they take their child to learn Judo and run more often. One year later, the child became more masculine and bolder subconsciously. The reason is that the child had strengthened his physique and self-confidence during sports and the children's willpower has become stronger after being thrown in Judo, and he can endure hardships without escaping.

Exercise can cultivate stronger mentality. People who exercise for a long time are mostly good at controlling their emotions and have higher endurance; they have clear goals and strong focus; they don't get trapped by the past and are not afraid of failure.

I have heard of such a sentence: "If you want to get angry, then start running." Exercise is a good medicine for resolving worries, embracing life and self-change. Go exercise, every drop of sweat you shed while exercising now will not disappoint you in the future.

Should you work for your relative?

Should you work for your relative?

Why do you often hear people say that no matter how poor you are, you should not go to work with relatives?

The most fundamental reason is that he thinks he is helping you, and you think you are helping him.

I heard this story from my friend. He graduated from university when he was 24, and there was once his uncle went to pay a visit to his house. He noted that my friend was graduating soon so he wanted my friend to be responsible for marketing role in his company.

The situation at that time was that, based on his academic qualifications and abilities, he should be able to find salary of 3k a month. Finding a job will not be difficult at all, but since his uncle initiated it, with a monthly salary of two thousand five thousand. He decided to accept the job.

He also believed that his uncle would not treat him badly, so he agreed and went to work in this uncle's company. His salary remained stagnant during his tenure of 1.5 Years with no bonuses. He decided to talk to his uncle about increment of his salary based on his demonstrated ability and performance. However, the talk did not go well and our relationship became sour.

His uncle was not willing to give him any bonus, only willing to raise his salary to 4k. His uncle said that he provided a very good platform for him to learn since he was a fresh graduate at that time. You see, his uncle thought he helped my friend, and my friend thought he was helping his uncle, so there is really no need to work for relatives. There are vast opportunities out in the market.
