The Financial Map of life is currently making a map for our future from our current sources and establishing the mark of its destination now.
What is the Financial Map of life?
This is a basic question. We often live in our city more conveniently than any other city. This is because we are familiar with all the areas and routes of our city. We know that if we have to go to a particular place, which route will be suitable, we have full information about what obstacles can come in that path and how long it will take to reach our destination. But in another city in which we are not familiar with, neither we are aware of its places nor about the barriers or obstacles of those paths.
As a result, we can wander in that city and probably cannot reach our destination on time. For avoiding such a painful situation, the smart people get a map of the city before they leave their home so that they can get familiar with their destination and be present there at given time. Today’s time is of advanced technology, and you can get acquainted with any part of the world from any part of the world through Google Earth or Google Map on GPS technology. There is no doubt that we have become much smarter than before and have been equipped with many facilities.
Just as we make a map for our journey and then make the journey more simple and convenient, we need to have a Financial Map of our life so that we can achieve our success and prosperity in time and make our travel easier and convenient. Since, earlier, neither you had the motivation for success nor the technology of success, you were wandering like a passenger coming in to an unknown city, but coming to this page of this book means that you have inspiration and idea of success, and you are ready to make every ethical effort to achieve this success.
When we are preparing for our economic journey, the most important thing we need after our inspiration is the financial Map of our life. We have to make future plans for the prosperity of our life and to work on those schemes, but more important than this is the question as to whether we have identified our future destinations? Indeed, the Financial Map of life is currently making a map for our future from our current sources and establishing the mark of its destination now. Only by walking, you cannot reach anywhere, because life is rotating around and we keep going round just like an ox with a spindle. We need to determine the direction, turn, halt, co-travelers, and speed of our journey – everything in advance.
I was wandering without any destination a few years ago, until a Chartered Accountant Mr. U.S.Tiwari, who is the expert of Mutual Bonds and has his office in the same building where I have my office, did not contact me and did not invite me to have a cup of tea with him in his office. I always like to contact the qualified and skilled people, so I spared some time from my busy schedule and reached his office. He welcomed me very warmly, and after that, he asked a simple question as to whether I am ready to pay his fee for my financial progress. I thought the deal was not bad. If his counseling can bring any improvement in my financial situation, the fees offered for it is quite justified in every way. But by that time I was not successful enough, so the level of my confidence was often shaking, so I asked – “What is the guarantee that your consultation will work in my life?” He laughed very loudly and said, “I guarantee that this is my office which is not going anywhere else shortly.
If my consultation does not work for you then I shall pay back your fees. I have been studying you for a long time, and I have reached this conclusion that you have all the qualifications and qualities of a successful person, but in the absence of a financial map, you are not reaching the place you want.” I knew that last month, he had visited my office several times along with some of his clients for my expert opinions about the immovable property, and he was very satisfied from my work and number of clients sitting there for their turns. He also told me adequately about himself and his work, and we were introduced a little bit. After the guarantee of his fees, there was no question left for me. I said, “I’m ready.”
