It’s almost 3 months had passed since 2009 began. Business people and investors are still a bit wary what will happen  on the economy. Thousand have been layoffs, companies being rescued by their own government and endless woes on the business sectors.

Americans and all other people around the world were hoping that US President Barack Obama will bring the miracle to the economy but sad to say that even Obama’s first 2 months in the office have been marked by sharp decline in the stock market. Even the so called “stimulus packages” did not stabilize the market.

Yesterday, I deposited some amount of money into my savings account and I asked the branch manager of the bank  what is the outlook on the market which is  jittery already. She gladly shared the best alternatives on where to put the hard earned money. I’ll write a post on this next time but for now I will share to you the investment tips that she gave to me.

She told me that investors can look forward to a more financially-secure this year by resolving to do the following:

1) Do be level-headed

Volatilities are natural in financial markets. During uncertain times, Do not panic. Remember that most people make poor financial decisions when they let their emotions lead.

2) Do keep sight of the big picture

Ang taong galit, “abnoy“.

I just want to share this nice message to all.  It seems right and as we strive to grow spiritually there is really no place for anger and negative feelings.

HOW TO CONTROL EMOTIONS

This would give you guides on how to control your emotions towards your better-half, friends, officemates and all the people around you, especially your “boss”. The rules of practicing “ugaling langit, ugaling kaaya-aya”.

1. Ang naunang magalit ang may karapatang magalit. Pag naunahan ka na ng galit niya, tumahimik ka na lang muna.
2. Walang taong nag-aaway mag-isa. Pag hindi kayo sumagot o pumatol, titigil din daw ang taong nakikipag- away sa inyo.
3. Ang taong galit, ‘bingi.’ If someone is angry, wala raw pinakikinggan, so, don’t try to explain and fight back. Hindi ka niya iintindihin dahil wala siyang naririnig kundi ang sarili nya. Read the rest of this entry
