The most important thing in this world to you is YOU! If you fail to invest in yourself then you undermine the best gift you could ever have in this world.

You are a human being and you are three-fold being — you consist of body, mind, and soul, we can term them as a physical being, the non-physical and the metaphysical.

The 3 investment you could ever make in this world without money is investing in your mind, body, and soul.

Investing In Your Mind

“We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.” –Buddha

Your mind is one among the big creation machine you have in this world and you can create anything by using your mind through thoughts by formulating different ideas through thinking, and all things around you, comes from someone’s thoughts, we build this world by thoughts that come from our own mind.

Invest in your mind — adopt these few tips

· Find good books, buy them and read them. Absorb good information for your mind it's a raw material for tomorrow's production, you are what you read.

· Find a good environment where your mind will feel a-fresh with positivity surroundings. Spend your time with nature rather than technology tools, it improves your mind creativity.

· Let go of negativity. Clean your mind from all negative thoughts.

· Unlearn all information that doesn’t support you anymore. Don’t be afraid it’s your life.

· Unlock yourself from being fixed and choose one belief system that will support your mind in a good way.

· Monitor your thoughts in a positive way — in a way that you want your life to be because you have the right to be who you are and you don’t have to apologize for being who you are.

· Feel good and positive all the time while monitoring your inner conversation and self-talk.

Remember this quote from John Milton too

“The mind is its own place and in itself, can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven” -John Milton

You alone, have the power to choose and decide which one can work for you.

Investing In Your Body

“Take care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live” –Jim Rohn

Your body is one of the huge temples of goodness, but you are allowing bad things inside your body and let those things destructing it even if you are conscious of that but you don’t care.

Learn to invest in your body as the only place you have to live by using these tips

· Love your body unconditionally— not conditionally and treat yourself with respect

· Feed your body with nourishing food

· Exercise it's healthy, don’t just do it simply because you want to get into shape or lose weight, its time-wasting.

· Drink water it's healthy. It’s colorless but water will give your body more nourishment.

· Get enough sleep and time to refresh while working, don’t work 24 hrs you have to change yourself, you are not a machine — you are a human being.

Investing In Your Soul

“The Soul has been given its own ears to hear things that the mind or body does not understand” –Rumi

Your soul is the non-physical part of who you are, that can’t be seen but work every second, minute, hour, day, week, month, year and forever — It’s the part that never dies but also lives forever. It’s your spiritual being the inner self of who you are created to be in the outer world but also it connects you with God who gives you the life you are living right now.

Too many of us we forget about this part, we forget that there is a great power that created us and we are free to use that greatness instead we start looking for the solution in the outer world while all the answers are inside us and within us, simply because we have a soul and the soul connect us to a powerful source which I call that power God.

Invest in your soul by adopting these few tips

· Pay attention to your intuition; your inner self knows who you really are and what you really want in this life.

· Be free; your inner self wants to be free — cherish it with goodness and good things all around you.

· Spend time with yourself and connect to your high self. Give yourself a moment of silence with yourself.

· Forgive and stay peacefully all the time, remove all grueling, all negativity.

· Pray or meditate. Let Go and Let God. Ask and it is given to you. God is limitless and powerful.

· Have a purpose, serve others it feels good to serve others. Give your time — give your energy.

· Give love to anyone and everywhere, don’t judge, only observe — we are all ONE. “There is a beautiful thing inside you and inside everyone.” –Dorothy Day

Living your life means, living a balanced life. We totally understand that many cars have four wheels if one wheel is not there then we miss the journey. It’s the same applied to your life, you must live a balanced life to be able to see the beauty of this world. Your mind, body, and soul are the big investment that lies within you, fail to balance these 3 wheels—the beauty of this world will disappear in front of your eyes, learn to pay attention to who you really are.
