At what age have we come to know that the VALUE of Time is far more superior than MONEY?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

It is different for everyone. It depends upon the experiences we receive throughout our lives. The earlier we get an idea of what is TIME and its Value, will be more helpful for us to become RICH and SUCCESSFUL.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Now you must be thinking about how Time Can help us to Grow.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Let’s understand these with a story.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

ONE WASTED & ONE INVESTED<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n

There were two childhood friends. One was born with a silver spoon and the other was having a hard time getting its stomach full. But the privileged one never had an EGO of his money. He was very supportive of his below-average friend. Let’s give those two BFFs a name one with a silver spoon we will call him Character \u201cA\u201d and another one\u00a0 we will refer to as Character \u201cB\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

12th board that changed everything<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n

10 days were remaining for their board exams both friends were very serious about their careers. So they were doing combined studies. Character \u201cA\u201d father was just passing by through his son\u2019s room when he saw that his son and his childhood friend were doing their studies. He was impressed by their dedication. So to boost their confidence he gave both of them a challenge.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

That if you guys score excellent marks on your boards then I will give you 2 Lakhs INR each as prize money. Without having a second thought the spark in their eyes made them accept the challenge within a Sec.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The challenge given by the character \u201cA\u201d father works as an adrenaline rush in their body.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

They started preparing for the exam with more focus.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

PRIZE received that they DESERVED<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n

So the day has come for both BFFs, they cracked the exam and made their position in the TOP 10 of the board exams. As promised by the character \u201cA\u201d father, they got their prize money.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Now the Vacations have started our Character \u201cA\u201d started spending his prize. He always wanted a Bike. He made use of the money and bought a bike on EMI. It was a sports bike within range, and the cherry on the cake was the red color with a black flame pattern that made the bike bold. As soon as he bought the bike he directly headed towards his best friend to show his sport bike to him.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Character \u201cB\u201d was amazed because he also wanted to get his two-wheeler. But he put a hold on his fantasy and used the PRIZE Money to get an Education in the <\/span>STOCK <\/span>MARKET<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/p>\r\n

Character \u201cA\u201d got upset and told his BFF I mean why why why? why you did do that? You could have got any expensive gadget or thing or even a sports bike. We both could have gone for a long bike ride.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Character \u201cB\u201d with a smile on his face told to him that I knew if I bought the <\/span>BAJAJ AUTO<\/span> bike we both could have gone for a ride. But I wanted to learn about the <\/span>STOCK MARKET<\/span>.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\r\n

In the future, I want to be a TRADER as well as an INVESTOR. After listening to his Dream Character \u201cA\u201d didn\u2019t ask him a question. Because he already knew once his BFF made up his mind he wouldn\u2019t listen to anybody until it was completed.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

A few months passed and both the BFFs got admission to the top UNIVERSITY. Character \u201cA\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Every day comes to college on his<\/span> BAJAJ AUTO<\/span> company sports bike. In college, his priorities changed he made some new friends because his BFFs got stuck with the Stock Market Learning. They used to meet once in a while. Character \u201cB\u201d gained some knowledge in the STOCK Market and made his 1st INVEST in <\/span>BAJAJ AUTO SHARE<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Isn\u2019t there an irony, that a few months back he wanted that bike, and after learning he became an investor by BUYING<\/span> BAJAJ AUTO SHARE<\/span>?<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The character \u201dA\u201d new group started bunking class and used to hang out in the pub, other friends’ flats, and resort. Every weekend they plan a trip or outing for drinking and smoking purposes.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

For parties and this kind of trip our \u201cA\u201d used almost his prize money.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Where on the other side character \u201cB\u201d started investing in many different stocks such as<\/span> ITC<\/span>, and United Spirits. <\/span>ITC<\/span> made a big upmove because, in the past few years, <\/span>ITC<\/span> Stock has been Consolidated. Reading a recent report, Character \u201cB\u201d came to know that <\/span>ITC<\/span> is focused on its FMCG Business to generate more revenue than its Cigarette business. That’s the reason he invested in<\/span> ITC<\/span> Share. He was balancing his Academics and Investing simultaneously.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

LIFE is a Roller Coaster<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n

Character \u201cA\u201d is tense because he hasn\u2019t studied for the whole year. He is confident that he is going to Fail. so in depression, he started drinking more. Where on the other hand Character \u201cB\u201d puts proper discipline on his body if he ever feels like drinking, he invests that money in <\/span>UNITED SPIRITS SHARE<\/span>. So in this way, he is increasing his portfolio and staying away from alcohol.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Now our \u201cB\u201d is more focused and disciplined in life he knows what he wants and how much he wants to get that he is following the right path.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

As we all Predicted with Character \u201cA\u201d the way he was confident about his failure. YES! He failed in Exam. After the result, our \u201cB\u201d went to see \u201cA\u201d but he was not at his home. So he asked his mother she told \u201cB\u201d that he had gone to his friend’s house. \u201cB\u201d went there because he was worried even though they don\u2019t share the same bond as childhood. When he reached there he saw that \u201cA\u201d was drunk and crying a lot due to his failure and how he had wasted his life and ruined his career with his hand. Character \u201cB\u201d hugged \u201cA\u201d and tried to consult him by telling him, there is still time you can start again and build your career.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

DON\u2019T GIVE UP on your dreams. You have to just decide what you want from life and how much you want. In the end, it is all about the <\/span>MINDSET. <\/b>The character \u201cA\u201d wasted his time smoking, roaming, and drinking while our Character \u201cB\u201d invested in<\/span> ITC<\/span>, <\/span>Bajaj Auto share<\/span> & <\/span>United Spirits Share<\/span>. Now everyone must be thinking he did invest in stocks but in reality \u201cB\u201d has Invested in TIME. he gave time to studying, time to grow his <\/span>MINDSET.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
