Is depression stopping you from achieving your financial goals?

Everything in this world is spiritual, while some individuals accept it some individual prefer to differ. First of all, you need a good relationship with Allah, the better the relationship gets, the better you will get emotionally and mentally. The better the relationship gets, the more you will stay away from actions that can lead to consequences that could cause depression. Part of having a good relationship with Allah includes carrying out righteous deeds which will help you get stronger emotionally and mentally. In other words being a Muslim.

You have to take good care of your well being. This includes proper diet (balanced diet, fruits and water), adequate exercise and adequate sleep. You also have to develop a positive way of thinking, always get adequate proof before you accept a negative thought, learn to let go of the little things, no human is perfect. For example, he entered the office and he didn't greet me, to me that flimsy, that is nothing to get worried about. Maybe he was absent minded or maybe it didnt occur to him. It will be nice of you to say hello first.

You also note that at times when an individual makes a statement, there is a possibility you could interpret it based on your own insecurity far far away from the message the person was trying to pass. So remember, positive thinking.

The saverholic

I always say first save your money in an halal account, once it has reached a particular threshold start investing. The saverholic only saves and saves and saves and cannot afford to take well calculated risks. Because, all you do is to save money. Invest in other markets, the higher the risk the higher the return, diversify your investment portfolio. All individuals that have achieved financial growth of great heights are risk takers, and they know that some risk might turn out negative but they know is all part of the process. They learn from it and apply it to the next risk they take and eventually they become experts at the risk they take (risk taken should not be excessive(too much uncertainty)). Then they end up having 80% success rates which I think is good enough. Make sure your business is halal. Give charity regularly from your income, Allah loves charity an...
