Please bring your own lunch for this event Part of reinventing oneself involves the perception of money and its impact on our emotions. As a continuation to Anu’s discussion on "Reinventing Yourself" last year, she is going to focus on the money aspect and its impact on our lives.
How often do you think about money? Most people think – or obsess – about money fairly often. Even people who have what would seem to be a lot of money think or worry about money many times a day. It seems strange that we spend so much of our time thinking about something that by itself has no value at all. Money’s value lies in the importance that we give it.
We deal with money every day of our lives, especially in the financial services. Irrespective of whether one is in their early career, or in mid-management or even in a senior position leading divisions or a business, our focus on money and our perception on how we feel about it is a very individual perception which has nothing to do with our station in life.
In this talk, Anu will explore how our money feelings and how it impacts our feelings of happiness and fulfillment, and how to deal with these feelings to lead a life where fulfillment comes not from money alone.
