The contagious human energy

It was almost 2AM (Singapore time) and I was about to sleep when the incident happened.

To be brief, a friend of mine argued with me on email forwarding issue. I was trying to explain to "my dearest friend" that by forwarding the email, one was exposing her friends to the spammer. However "the friend" argued that those email was not harmful in anyway and advised me to delete them if it was too irritating. I was shock with such treatment.

First of all, I did not communicate that the email was irritating. Instead, I was actually trying to explain to her what the email was trying to achieve. The purpose of such email scam was to let the attached party (the originator) to create a list of email addresses. The list might be sold to a company and we would start getting spam in our inbox.

I could feel the anger in the words that came out from my friend. The anger slowly bites me and try to infect my "normalized" energy. I felt uncomfortable talking with the person that time as the negative energy of the individual tried to invade my balanced condition.

Upon realizing such situation, there is no point of explaining anything to the person. I put my best effort to let her ego win and disrupt the communication with a thankful expression.

I hope "my particular friend" has the chance to understand what had happened during that five minutes communication. I have no intention to insult or belittle the person but I think it is unwise to let your emotion rule offer you and not being open to the truth.

Conclusion: Both positive and negative energy is contagious. Being able to mingle around people with positive and open mindset enhance our life quality

TIME & MONEY

Do they sound familiar to you? Yeah, it is one of the most important topic in finance. Time is Money, addressed as time value of money by the financial people. I will not talk about that anyway. I am not gonna explain how closely related they are. Just remember this phrase:

“ Young People sacrifice their TIME to earn MONEY, meanwhile the old folks sacrifice MONEY to get TIME”

That is why in this writing I would like to talk about how to MANAGE them.

I have been doing well with financial management (still along way to the millionaire dream TARGET). However, one thing that I just realized after a conversation with one of my new housemates, he is a very handsome and wise guy, any lady interested can let me know XD. We were on the way back from the Xmas thanksgiving mass in St Mary. I was complaining about how fast the time has flied. I couldn’t even APPRECIATE the one week. As if the number of day in the week is getting lesser and lesser.

My big wise friend from SMU gave me a good suggestion that might be effective to solve my concern. It is to start a diary, taking note , just a brief one, of your activities in each day. I do not know whether such thing will work or not but definitely I am going to try it out.

I have been recording my daily expenses for the previous three months. At first it was challenging. However I realize that by doing such simple thing, I am getting more and more aware of my spending and better in terms of financial planning.
