Financial Freedom

On last 2 days or during weekend, i was thinking about financial freedom. What is financial freedom? How can i achieve financial freedom? To get the answer, I ask Mr. Google. A lot of people talking about financial freedom but how do they do it?

 

To get responses, I put this on my FB status. A few of my friends give the comments. They said, do a business and he give me a link to do MLM business. Thanks bro for the link. I will looking of it soon. Another friend said, start to do a saving then read the books. He listed the book he was read. The books are Rich Dad Poor Dad, ‘Rancang Wang Dari Sekarang’, Millionaires are from different planet. Is it enough? Yes, agreed, knowledge is good BUT

“Knowledge is only potential power. Real power is when you put your knowledge into action! To achieve financial freedom you need to take action!”

But google listed a lot of websites stories about financial freedom but that is only knowledge. Get the knowledge first and have to implement it. Here are the links that i go through and read.

IQ vs EQ vs SQ, which one is the key to success?

Intelligent Quotient (IQ), Emotional Quotient(EQ) and Spiritual Quotient(SQ).

Having a high IQ proves that you have book smarts, but without emotional intelligence, how can you be socially coherent? In today's world, communications skills are more important than having the best GPA. According to Daniel Goleman, “emotions have the primary survival function”. It is the way you interact with others that helps to mold you. There are four demands of emotional intelligence or EQ: understanding your emotions, managing your emotions, perceiving your emotions, and using your emotions.

Emotional intelligence is defined as how a person behaves by managing his or her emotions and empathizing with other people’s feelings so they can interact and communicate effectively.

What is SQ?
Human beings are different from animals and computers because of SQ. Animals can have EQ and computers can have IQ but they won't have SQ. SQ is all about holistic approach to life: the wholesomeness, self-awareness, compassion, creativity, ability to think, ability to reason out etc; all of this together.

There is an articel on the NET titled "Spiritual Quotient: The Type of Smarts We Don't Learn in School". The article state that, Emotional intelligence is another important aspect. In the 1990s, psychologist Daniel Goleman popularized the concept in his best-selling book Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ. He used findings from neuroscience and psychology to show the importance of an emotional quotient (EQ) to success in life.

He defines emotional intelligence "as a set of skills, including control of one's impulses, self-motivation, empathy and social competence in interpersonal relationships"

Looking for a business

Semalam telah menhadirkan diri utk satu seminar pasal satu peluang business yg kian berkembang di Malaysia. Business tersebut berkaitan dgn pendidikan utk anak2. Byk sharing pengalaman dr mereka yg telah berjaya. Ada antara mereka, dahulunya adalah mat rempit yg mana SPM pn tak lepas, pekerja kilang, buruh yg pendapatan RM500 sebulan, CEO yg belajar sampai SPM di sebabkan kesempitan hidup.

Tp kata one of the speakers dlm seminar itu, SEMALAM SIAPA KITA TAK PENTING, TAPI SIAPA KITA HARI INI DAN BESOK. Huhh..bertuahnya hidupku, belajar sampai degree (plan nk sambung master lepas nie), gaji riban sebulan tapi ape y membezakan hidupku dgn hidup dia? Aku bekerja dpt duit tp dia(CEO, ex-mat rempit, ex-pekerja kilang) duit bekerja utk diorg…gaji puluhan riban sebulan….

Kata Prof. Dr. Hamka:
"Peluang yang besar itu datang secara tiba-tiba....... datang tidak menentu masa...... datang disaat kita kesempitan atau kesusahan. Nilailah peluang itu dengan secara bijaksana. Rebutlah peluang yang besar itu, kerana peluang yang besar itu boleh berlalu dengan tiba-tiba. Jangan jadikan Seribu Alasan untuk tidak merebut peluang yang besar itu!”
