These are interesting times to be studying about Financial Management

Financial Management is by the far the most interesting subject for this semester. Not only do I not know anything, at least not anymore due to bad memory cells, about the Balance Sheet, I had forgotten most fundamental accounting terms I’d learnt at least 3 times during the course of my earlier education life.

My lecturer, a stout Chinese man, today gave the class a very interesting overview about Finance fundamentals. At the end of the class, I feel somewhat ‘lucky’ to be learning about Finance in present day US economy. Is this about being at the right place at the right time?

I believe I have somewhat conditioned myself to learn and absorb as much as I can about many different topics and knowledge area, I didn’t realise that I actually like learning so much!

Conditioning the mind to learn new things ain’t that difficult actually but the journey, gosh, can be challenging. I start with picturing in my mind the end results, my goals, and then I plan the detailed steps in between to reach that goal. Be it about losing weight, making money, having fun, travel to a dream destination, it all starts with conditioning of the mind. Of course it’s easier said than done. One can really get ‘lost’ in the midst of daily lives and struggles, thus losing sight. When that happens, I go back to imagining my goals and it’s always about the people whom I hold dear. It helps me focus. It’s the comfort food for my mind.
