Business / 4 Questions You Need To Answer Before Investing Your Own Money? by mydearfrancis(m): 12:56am On Aug 02, 2012
Approach a financial advisor with the same question and you will probably get a very different
response. Rather than looking to someone with something to sell for advice, investors should take time for
introspection before deciding to manage their own investments. Here are four questions to ask
yourself: Do I have (1) the desire, (2) the time, (3) the knowledge and (4) the temperament to do it? Answer “NO” to any of these questions, and you may as well shift your focus to finding the right
professional advisor. Let’s survey each of these topics. DESIRE Having the time and ability to manage your own money effectively is of no use if you lack the desire.
Motivation can come from many sources but is largely a function of interest in investing and incentive.
There is no better incentive than the cost savings potential. An investor with a #1 million naira portfolio, often pays #10,000-#12,000 per year to an advisor, such
as a fee-based broker or Registered Investment Adviser. At #3 million, the cost of professional
management rises to about #25,000-#30,000 per year. These annual costs continue to rise as your
portfolio grows. Over the course of your lifetime, the cost of professional management can amount to
a small fortune. Before you start spending this new found money, recognize that your desire to manage your own
portfolio should be sustainable. Without the dedication to maintaining diligence over your investments,
good intentions can go awry and the harm to your portfolio can exceed the fee savings. TIME Investing your own portfolio is not a full time job once you are up and running. It may, however, require a substantial time commitment at the outset. How much time, depends on your prior level of
knowledge and experience, along with the complexity of your chosen investment approach. Whether or
not you can find someone to help you develop a strategy may be another factor. Be prepared to invest
a significant amount of time upfront and be patient through the process. have the time for the initial research but anticipate
having limited time for ongoing management, it is critical
that you develop an investment approach that is simple
to maintain. Recognize that even professional advisors
have had great success with simple, well conceived
investment processes that can be adopted by do-it- yourself investors. KNOWLEDGE Successful investing does not require a PhD degree in
finance. What is most relevant about an investor’s
knowledge level is aligning your investment approach with
your knowledge level. Many day traders during the
internet bubble quit their day jobs to invest full time
through their discount broker. What got most of them in trouble was a lack of knowledge about their chosen
strategy. To start, read some books or consider taking an
investments course. The Candor Resources Library contains some recommended reading and videos to
explore. TEMPERAMENT “Success in investing doesn’t correlate with I.Q.,” Warren Buffett once said. “What you need is the temperament to control the urges that get other people into trouble in
investing.” What gets people into trouble? Their brains. As Jason
Zweig notes in his book “Your Money & Your Brain” investors are like dieters that jump from diet to diet and
end up at least as heavy as they started. Investors are
habitually their own worst enemies. Everyone knows they
should buy low and sell high, yet very often, investors do
the opposite. If you have a history of reacting emotionally
to market volatility, then you may not have the temperament to manage your own portfolio. As you consider these questions, remember these words
of wisdom from Clint Eastwood as “Dirty” Harry Callahan
in the movie Magnum Force as he surveys the flaming
wreckage that engulfed his adversary. “A man has got to
know his limitations.” The same goes for talking babies.

Career / How To Manage Pressure And Increase Performance. by mydearfrancis(m): 9:59pm On Jun 10, 2012
To succeed in life and work; have
a healthy long life, you must
ensure you
manage challenges that come
your way, no matter how difficult
it may seem. These challenges are most of the
times called “pressure”. Now if
you do not
learn how to manage “pressure”,
it will impair your health and
make you unproductive, reducing your
ability to perform at expected
level.
* *
*WHAT IS PRESSURE?*
This is simply defined as a forcible influence that causes anxiety and
difficulty. There is no need to
really be anxious for anything as
we will
always experience pressure. The
earlier you learn how to manage it the
better for you and all those that
care about you.
* *
*TYPES OF PRESSURE*
* * You may ask “does pressure have
types?” the answer is yes, it does
and the
moment you discover and
determine the kind of pressure
you frequently have, the straightway you have
discovered to dealing with and
enjoying your work
and life generally. Some kinds of
pressure are the following:
- Work pressure - Family pressure (marital)
- Financial pressure
- Relationship
*Work pressure* comes especially
when you have an urgent
demand to meet with a need within a very short period
of time. What happens to you is
that you
lose focus of all other issues at
hand, channeling your energy to
the need that has a high level if attention
and most times become very
irritable.
*WHAT IS PERFORMANCE?*
This is the ability to use your skills
to do work or accomplish a task, meeting all the requirements
associated with the task or work.
*THE STEPS BELOW ARE SOME WAYS
YOU CAN MANAGE PRESSURE*
* *
1. Relax and clear your mind when you feel you are under
pressure. Do
not react or jump into action
immediately.
2. When calm, think on the issue
to identify the source of the problem
3. Think of solutions to the
problem that is putting you under
pressure and pick the best option
4. Prioritize your activities so that
you can have time for each and every one of your activities. This
gives you a sense of direction.
5. Solve each problem, one at a
time
6. If possible, delegate some
activities. This gives you time to focus
on the more serious issues.
7. Collate results after preparing
them and go through them to
ensure
you are satisfied with them before implementation to avoid
repeating the
process all over again.
Pressure affects performance but
it is your ability to handle it that
determines the extent to which it affects your performance. It is
imperative
that you find your own way or
style of dealing with or managing
pressure
whenever they occur in the work place.
When pressure is not managed at
all or is not effectively managed,
your
performance at work is greatly
affected and is evident in ways like:
1. Your output is greatly reduced
because you are under stress as a
result of the pressure
2. You are unable to think clearly
to provide useful and effective solutions
3. You become frustrated
4. You become unorganized and
unable to focus on your duties
and tasks
given to you When challenges come with
pressure, do not panic and try to
solve it at the
same time, this only makes the
situation worse and makes your
performance poor. Deal with the pressure by
being calm and then acting right.

Religion / The Difference Between Righteousness And Holiness. by mydearfrancis(m): 11:05am On Apr 15, 2012
Many has misinterpreted righteousness to sinlessness. They ask the different between righteousness and holiness.
Rigteousness is the nature of God impacted into d human spirit that gives him the ability to stand b4 God without any sense of guilt or inferiority complex.
It means if a righteous man sins he is still remains righteous. Because it is his NATURE!
Righteousness is a gift from God.
Eg: the nature of goat doesn't change because he swimmed in an overwhelmed ocean. His still a goat; even if he dies.
Now holiness is a place of God's dwelling.
We are holy cos christ lives inside us.
U know after God stood on mountain sinai to give moses commandment. It was later called a holy mountain. So we are holy cos God lives in us.
