The Best Investment Tip Ever

© Rev. Marie Jones

Every where you turn today, people are talking about stocks and trading and investments. What was once the domain of professional brokers has now even gone "fast-food," as more and more people become do-it-yourself traders via the Internet. Many people are getting wealthy playing the stock market. Many more are losing their shirts.

But I'll bet no one has ever found a better investment than the one I'm about to share with you now. This stock is so hot, it alone could create a rally on Wall Street. This stock is so hot, it often brings returns in the QUADRUPLE DIGITS! And I'm not afraid to share it with all of you because this stock is SO HOT, everyone who invests in it has the potential of becoming rich beyond his or her wildest dreams!

The best investment you'll ever make is in... are you ready? YOU!

I'll bet you thought I was going to say something like Nike or MP3.com or Apple Computers. No, the best investment you can ever make is in yourself, in your own talents and skills and abilities.

We live in a money-oriented, outer-directed society. Our focus is often so heavily on making more and acquiring more and investing more for our future, or for our children's education, or retirement. In our race to accumulate more money and more things, often through outside sources, and find the financial security and freedom we long for, we often forget that we are sitting, literally, on the hottest stock we could ever possibly put money into.

OURSELVES!

Everything that we do for ourselves is an investment towards our future, whether it's learning a new skill or brushing up on an old one; mastering a language, or starting an exercise program; eating healthier or meditating; practicing spiritual principles or making the effort to meet new people. Investing in ourselves is about finding the talents and gifts and abilities that lay dormant within us and putting them to work for us in a way that can bring us both financial and personal rewards.

If we want to succeed in life, we really must first learn how to succeed at being ourselves, the best selves we can be. Dolly Parton is quoted as saying, "To be successful, find out who you are, then do it on purpose." What is it we love to do, what is it we believe in, what would make us hold our heads up taller, make us walk a little more confidently? Each of us has the potential to do and be whatever it is we dream of, if we can but put our minds and our hearts into it. By simply changing our thinking, we change our lives, and often those changes begin with simple things, such as taking a new class, or joining a church or professional organization.
