The Mindful Investor is a friendly, non-threatening, inspirational guide for individual investors, business people, and professionals who are looking for a better way to manage their money and their professional lives. It has been long recognized that having a calm and orderly mind leads to superior decision making, increased confidence and coping, and a lot less stress. The idea is now becoming entrenched in the world of work and applied by those seeking work-life balance. In our workshops on achieving work-life quality participants learn how to distinguish between things we can and cannot control, the things we can and cannot influence and the things we can neither control nor influence. By controlling the tings within our control we can effectively manage the things that are outside of our control. When we are mindful we can master a situation, address issues, eliminate stressors, take appropriate action and focus on what is important. Maria and Graham help us apply these same principles to managing our finances and investments. Actions we take and decisions we make regarding our financial management can have profound and lasting impact yet much of what we must consider is outside of our sphere of control and/or influence. You will learn the basics of Mindfulness Meditation, including the five hindrances to success:
