The world is in an economic crisis, everywhere you read that real estate is going down and banks are going bankrupt. Well, after speaking to my mother and father the other night about all these influences in the world and how it affects our lives, I decided it is time to spread a positive message and tips & tricks on how to become balanced as a property investor, or just as a human being. If you are not balanced, it’s difficult to be positive and healthy.
So I will start by telling you a story my mom told me about how she deals with stress.
The Waterfall Method of dealing with stress.
Everyone has stress at some level, your boss irritates you, you have a “bad” tenant or everyone is just plain ticking you off. All these factors can cause you to not sleep properly and that in turn leads to you being in a bad mood.
When you go to bed, close your eyes and imagine a great vast open field with green grass. At one end there is a magnificent waterfall that rumbles. Make sure you spend adequate time imagining this waterfall in all it’s splendor, smell the air, fell the spray and hear the wonderful sound of the water as it falls to the bottom (please note the key here is to imagine a HUGE waterfall).
When you have the vision clearly in your mind start imagining that you are standing at the top of this waterfall. Right next to you are the people and problems you face during your day that cause you sleepless nights. One by one take each of them and toss them down the waterfall watching as they plummet into the misty abyss. I assure you before you reach the end of the “stress line” you will be fast asleep, stress free

So Tito, what’s the interest rate going to do, would you like to come for a “swim”?
