Hi everyone, I'm Andy.
After the pandemic, I often hear from my friends that life is stressful and that they are afraid of being laid off every day.
Although savings are a basic guarantee of our lives and will also give us a sense of security, but now that inflation has been rising, it is not enough to save a little money every month because the money will shrink.
I remember a few years ago, there was a noodle restaurant downstairs in my community, and at that time I could eat a bowl of noodles for 5 yuan, but now it has risen to 13 yuan.
What I want to say is, we have to think more. In addition to saving a portion of our income each month, think about what we can do and how we can create greater value for ourselves
For example, you can invest in these 5 areas, and in 5 or 10 years you will thank yourself and be glad for the decision you made at this time.
1. Investment insight
I often hear a saying:"People can't make money beyond their knowledge".
In this case, we should invest in our brains, enrich ourselves, enrich our knowledge, improve our cognition, thinking, and so on.
If you have the opportunity, you can contact and communicate with the big names in the industry, which will help you grow.
"More skills are not pressing".It's always good to learn more and improve your ability to earn money.
2. Investment business
After the epidemic, the development of many industries is not very good. A friend told me that their company lays off some people every month, and they are scared to go to work every day.
Although we can't change others, what we can do is change ourselves.
Outside of work, use your time to Xi a skill and develop a side hustle whenever possible. In today's society, as long as you are talented, have a skill, and use it well, you can make money.
A friend of mine, she is very good at storage, she lives in a small space, but clean and tidy. During the pandemic, she was made redundant.
For a while, she was very depressed and didn't know what to do. Later, I suggested that she learn how to organize Xi.
She is now a professional organizer and has a stable income every month. Do what you love and don't have to worry about losing your job one day.
3. Invest in a hobby
I always hear some people say that they are lost, and some people say that life is boring.
I think if all the time after work is spent chasing dramas and playing with mobile phones, it is better to take a little time to invest in a hobby. Depending on your interests, you can choose from dancing, yoga, flower arrangement, presentations, and more.
If you can do something you love to do outside of work, and you can enrich your life, you won't feel bored every day.
It's good to have more talent around, and there will be opportunities for you to show off.
I participated in an offline event before, many people were embarrassed to speak on stage, and I had a friend who stood on the stage and spoke for 30 minutes. Before that, she had been practicing Xi speech for more than half a year.
4. Invest in your own network
Networking is important to each of us, and the lack of a certain network will affect both the workplace and personal development.
The so-called network is not what you imagine, send a blessing text message during the New Year, but usually do not contact. A good relationship is a two-way street, and you usually have to take the initiative to maintain it.
On weekends, you will participate in more offline activities and clubs that interest you, and meet more people from all walks of life, and you will find a lot of friends to talk to.
5. Investment and financial management
Each of us should learn some financial knowledge Xi make money, so that money can make money, and we can achieve financial freedom earlier.
In addition to taking a part of the income as a fixed deposit, you can also invest in some better ** and the like to obtain compound interest growth.
If you don't understand it, it is recommended not to invest blindly. Before you are ready to invest, you should understand the industry clearly, or consult with professionals in this industry and consider it carefully before deciding.
Andy sincerely hopes that everyone can use the fragmented time to learn more and improve themselves in addition to work and Xi.
Free for an excursion;Make more like-minded friends;Develop a hobby. Make your life rich and fulfilling.
Invest in yourself and you'll be thankful for that wise move in a few years.
