Following is an article from today’s Mumbai Mirror by Meenakshi Agarwal,a Feng Shui consultant:
More and more home owners are now opting for the ancient Chinese science of Feng Shui to plan out their homes. This is because even a few minor changes that Feng Shui suggests bring about a remarkable positive change in one’s life.
A family residing in a posh locality of south Mumbai too have experienced this miraculous change in their lives, merely by following a few principles of Feng Shui. The head of the family sought Feng Shui solutions for a gamut of problems. He recounted that the family had simply stopped growing in wealth or making any progress career-wise. He had a marriageable daughter, another in college and a school going son. He even mentioned that in the present scenario, it would have been impossible for him to carry out any major changes as per Vaastu Shastra or Feng Shui. So, he asked for solutions that could be easily implemented. This is where the beauty of Feng Shui lies. The idea is not to disturb the basic spirit of the house by suggesting breaking of walls, etc., but to bring about drastic changes in your life with the slightest change in your environment.

In the book ‘The Difference’,the author Joan Chatzky outlines the characreristics of the Wealthy Personality.
Wealthy people score high on 7 personality traits.Viz.
1.confidence
2.curiosity
3.intuition
4.drive
5.connectedness
6.resilience
7.optimism
Hence wealthy people tend to be more competitive, optimistic, happy, and confident. They also read the news on a regular basis, exercise at least twice a week, and socialize with their friends at least once a week.
The author believes that cultivating these habits helps a person do well financially.
Finally an interesting quote from the book: “Optimism is a wealth magnet”

Here is an excerpt from CNBCs the Wizards of Dalal Street:It’s pretty interesting hearing Rakesh narrate the story of his early years in the stock market and his progress since then.With the market in the doldrums maybe it’s now time for us too to seize the moment and do our personal versions of a Jhunjhunwala.So watch,learn and be encouraged:
