Journey of a Dream

Yesterday morning, I went to Legend Hotel to hear someone talk about stock investment. There were a few things I picked up during the 1.5 hours I was there. Not so much about stock investment, as I don't have any money to do stock investment right now. The presenter, Marcus, was very good in his delivery techniques. Deep in all of us, we know, the reason we attend such seminar is because we don't have financial freedom right now.

What really struck me is that he said, "people procrastinate, but like it or not, time is still going to pass."

It struck me a fair bit because about 2.5 years ago, I read Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Dad Poor Dad. I remember, I was so stirred up that I didn't want to remain in employment. But right now, I'm still employed. I'm not much closer to where I wanted to be. So it's true, like it or not, time is still going to pass and the question is, to make a change, why not start now?

Then he also said, "people work 10 hours a day, but they are not willing to spend 20 minutes a day to educate themselves?" I can't help to agree more. People are willing to work hard on their jobs, but they don't work hard on themselves.

So for a change, I want to resist looking at online shopping websites. Buy some books on investment and financial freedom, go for seminar (I already signed up for National Achievers Congress). Don't know how much it helps but it's a good start.

Anyway, I learned some jargons:
