Thought of the Day..
We see so many investment plans popping up everyday. They are advertised either in newspapers , magazines , Tv or on the net. Flashing schemes appear to double the money or to secure the future . Temptations like “Invest today to enjoy post retirement comfortably” takes us to dreamyland. Their is no end to secure our money & think of comfortable future. While making investments in the house plans , SIP’S , mutual funds etc we don't realise our youth age sneaks away so quickly. We remain focused to save money or even to invest for our children’s future. But what do we achieve? Nothing! because in old age people enjoy less & uncomplicated stuff. Our children leaves us for their own survival . So during our prime years the investment plans brings us stress, tension & unending dead lines . The time which we could have enjoyed slips away.
So why not invest in health, relationship & inner peace. Why not think about saving our health rather than money. Investing in good health that means keeping healthy & fit , eating good nutritious food & do regular exercise. So when old age knocks on the door we don't depend on others. No old age comes without ailments but at least diseases have to fight really hard to enter a well kept body. If we keep close tab on our body then we know what works for us , instead of depending on doctors & popping pills. Why spend money on hospitals & medicines, just take out time to look after our body.
Why not invest is good relationship? First & foremost with our family which includes parents , spouses & children. Apart from them friends , colleagues or neighbours. Take out time to communicate with them. It helps in understanding each others problems. The wider the circle the stronger we emerge , as someone will always watch our back in difficult time. Be ready to extend help , be more approachable & humble. This investment starts as one understands this complex world . Slowly & steadily it will keep on increasing & shall bring benefits.
Lastly why not invest in inner peace? Do things which brings us happiness. Things which brings smile on our face without any guilt. Never let go of our hobbies, be it reading a book, watering plants or going for a trek. Never stop self growth by claiming, “I know & have achieved everything”. Learn to live for yourself & don’t bring stagnant point in one's life.
Nothing better can be achieved if we invest in a plan which includes health , relationship & inner peace. This investment will double up in no time bringing additional joys & happiness in our life. The ladder we choose now will definitely secure our future, the one which we can merrily enjoy with our grand kids.
Think over it!!
