Support business idea over friendship

I recently got in an argument with someone who believe I should support friends over business. If it’s a friend with a bad business, is it alright for me to support it? If my greatest enemy creates a product that’s able to cure cancer, should I not support his business?

I want all of my friends to succeed but that doesn’t mean I will support all of their business endeavors. That doesn’t mean I won’t be their friend either, I just won’t be a promoter of the business they own.

Unconscious expenses

An unconscious expense is something you buy, without putting a lot of thought into it, and soon forget afterwards.
Like everything else you buy, unconscious expenses are bills that can be a potential source of income.

Cutting expenses is a more effective way to put money in your jeans but you first have to know where every penny goes. Keeping receipt, or entering your expenses in a notebook, can be good ways for you to keep track of where your money went.

Items on sales are often source of unconscious expenses. If it’s not an item, that you needed prior to the sale, don’t buy it. We can justify any buy we make, the best way, I found, not to buy unnecessary items is keeping a list of the things I need.

Digestive brain

The brain process information the same way than the rest of the body does food. It takes information in, filtrates it, and put the bad information to waste.

The difference is that we have control over the filter. We have the last say on what information is good for us.
The media out there are working hard to influence you to change the filter to let their information in.
“Drink this pop, buy this product, use our toothpaste” are just a few of the advertisement found out there that tries really hard to put garbage thinking in your mind.

FML … Really?

I will not tell you what “FML” means. Let’s just say it’s stupid and common on Facebook. It’s an expression that I find offensive because it means that the writer doesn’t value life as much as one should.

When you study the author of the comment, what they complain about ain’t that much of a big deal.
What I find fascinating is those who really have rough time never says such things.

Why? Do people value life more when going through rough time? Do people complain more when everything is okay?

Doing good in a Relationship

Doing good to your partner is never a bad thing. I like to compare a relationship to a business. If you buy something for your business, it’s an investment (there will be a return) not a cost.

Grow your business!
