Perils of assets classes

Imperialism meant to take the possessions as much as possible. When the ideology of imperialism thrived at the period where everyone considered having more land is the sign of power and wealth, it is quite natural to have such a bias. The war were in the name of lands, bribes were measured by how much acres therein and certainly the wealth both of an individual and a kingdom. This was practised from the very beginning and multiple centuries before. The more land you own, the richer you are. Because there is no equivalent alternative to measure wealth. It took centuries to sway away from this notion. Slowly people started believe in assets. By then the most favourable one was gold (among matals). So the greedy ones went to hunt for gold, they dig deeper and deeper until they found some trace and they did.
But with a short period of time, when compared with the duration at which people veered from lands to gold, people started believing in more assets classes are preferably the ownership of growing businesses. If we look at the top rich people, they are not gold miners or holders, they are the business owners and professional investors. The asset class has changed dramatically. The newly discovered ones are getting more attention and the older ones are devaluing itself. Now everyone knows, in order to be super rich, you have to be an entrepreneur either through building or investing.

There are various types of practices that makes up to a perfect finishing time. But whenever we look at it, the core always lies in the amount of we focused. We can even say that focus is solely responsible for completion. Without focus nothing cannot be completed. It may stay unsolved forever. People try to make their lives better by doing several things, in the end we could say that they were indirectly trying to improve their focus. Focus helps is to accomplish things within a very short span of time. There by reducing the time wastage and leaving things perfectly finished. With focus, we can complete even the task that now feel like impossible. People often neglect this fact try their best to make a difference in their lives by merely altering the surface. That may do good in the short term. But in the long term, it does nothing. We have to change ...

Welcoming the fate

Marcus Aurelius once said " To welcome with affection what is sent by fate". He meant every word he said. It is possible to get ourselves to welcome the fate. It brings oppertunity and self control. Knowing that we can have the control of our being is powerful when it comes to being vulnerable with emotions.

Finding solutions

How we see problems is the reason our solution is the way it is. We can confront a problem in a variety of ways. either we could solve it permanently or we could find a temporary one for instant relief. but the outcome is what often matters. The permanent solution leads to new outcomes, new opportunities, and therefore a new better problem. But the temporary comes with the same old problems every time.

Power greed

The greed for power and money made humans do inhuman things. slavery was one of those the product of power greed. It began from the very personal level and extended to the macro level. We see geopolitical tensions arising among nations. We can observe the development ongoing to make themselves powerful. nations investing in military, science, technology, and economy has this side to show power than making the country a better place. This race to power blessed humans with a lot of inventions that modernized our life and made our lifestyles better. But the flip side is that it led to the greatest wars that humankind ever witnessed. It killed people beyond numbers and put a lot of lives miserable. Every event comes with pros and cons. The cons side requires years or decades to settle. the radiation effects in the nuclear-affected areas, slavery, climate change, plastic wastes, racism, caste, inequality, and man-made diseases are prime examples.
