In the past few years, the global economy has been declining, investment in real estate will decline, investment in stocks will fall, and investment in industry will shrink.
Someone asked on Zhihu: "Is there any investment in the world that only makes money but does not lose money?"
"Stock God" Buffett said: "In the end, there is One investment is better than all other investments, and that is investing in yourself. No one can take away what you have learned. Everyone has such investment potential, but they just don’t do it. ”
Investing in yourself is always a sure profit.
Your health, character, mature mind and happy family will be the most solid backing and powerful support on your life path.
In the next five years, if you are still confused and groping, don’t hesitate to invest in the following aspects first, they will allow you to reap returns beyond expectations.
1. Invest in health
During the new crown epidemic, Professor Zhang Wenhong said that the most effective drug is our immunity.
Emerson said: "Health is the greatest wealth in life."
If health is 1, money, status, reputation, and feelings are all followed by 0.
"Founder of Innovation Factory" Kai-fu Lee After falling ill at the age of 452, he mentioned in the book "Living to Death - The Death Credits I Learned": To live toward death, I took 7 credits for death. The first credit is that health is priceless.
He said: "After getting sick, I deeply realized that health is as important as life. If health is lost, there is nothing. ... I very much hope that everyone can cherish their health and don't wait until one day, like me, it is almost too late to regret and learn to cherish your body."
The time and cost we invest in health will eventually bring us huge profits.
" Pipe·Situation Solution " says: "When you live in a moderate diet, and the cold and heat are appropriate, the body will benefit and your life will be beneficial."
The experience of the ancients tells us that health is hidden in our daily lives. A self-disciplined and measured lifestyle can make us live more calmly and healthily.

2. Invest in character
Character, that is, the label for us to walk externally.
Kai-Fu Lee once said publicly that I think the first quality among all talents is character. No matter how outstanding his ability is, if his character is not good, I will not consider hiring him.
Every time Xiao Wang comes back from a business trip, he always reimburses the actual expenses, but this is not the case for other colleagues. Each time, they will issue more invoices and then take them to the company for reimbursement.
Many colleagues laughed at him for being stupid. The company paid the bill, so why not take advantage of it?
Xiao Wang said that every time he signs the reimbursement column, he feels that his name is his own signature, and he must be worthy of his signature.
Therefore, every time when Xiao Wang reimburses, the boss basically scans the amount and signs it in two seconds. Others, on the other hand, review each item one by one.
Not long after, a vacancy for a management position appeared in the company. The senior leaders each recommended their favorite candidate, and all of them had senior qualifications than Xiao Wang. However, the boss overcame all objections and settled on Xiao Wang.
When asked why, the boss only said one sentence: This person's character is trustworthy.
As the saying goes, investing in character is investing in the future.
Having a good character will have a good reputation. This is the passport to a better future.
3. Invest in a mature mind
There is this sentence in the movie " Forrest Gump ": "I don't think that people's mental maturity is becoming more and more tolerant and inclusive, and everything can be accepted. On the contrary, I think It should be a process of gradual elimination, knowing what is most important to you and what is unimportant. "
Most people in this world don't often think proactively. They don't think much about why a certain platform can always accurately push the content they are interested in, allowing themselves to be intoxicated and unknowingly. Hours slip by quietly, allowing their lives to slowly pass away in such boring consumption.
A few smart people know that they are trapped in an "information cocoon" based on big data algorithm analysis. They won't wallow here, they have more important things to do.
Being free from temptation and interference from the outside world, adhering to one's own principles and doing what one considers important is the magic weapon for a person to face the ever-changing future.

4. Invest in a harmonious family
A very wise aunt taught her the secret of family happiness and said: "Home is a place for love, not reason. If you have to argue about right and wrong over trivial matters, this family will not live well."
Indeed, the best Feng Shui for a family is "harmony is the most precious".
Zeng Guofan said: "Harmony brings auspiciousness."
Qian Zhongshu's daughter Qian Yuan loved to lie on Qian Zhongshu's body during his nap when he was a child, holding up a brush and painting on his father's face. The child suppressed a smile and innocently stroked his face left and right... Soon, Qian Zhongshu's face turned into a big painted face.
Yang Jiang was watching the father and daughter silently from the side, smiling...
A warm and harmonious family is always a person's best memory.
Mr. Yang Jiang wrote every bit of the life of a family of three in " We Three ", which is plain and true, ordinary but touching. After reading
, you will understand that a person's greatest blessing is to have a harmonious family.
Goethe said: "Whether you are a king or a farmer, as long as your family is harmonious, you will be the happiest person."
Spend some time and energy to manage your family well, and you will reap the biggest surprises in the rest of your life.
The old year is coming to an end and facing the unknown future, instead of being confused, it is better to invest in yourself first.
Squeeze out some time and spend it on things that are valuable to yourself. In this way, every effort we put in will be rewarded and make us a more "valuable" self.
