STOCK MARKET BASICS: EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT INVESTING IN THE STOCK MARKET

February 7, 2021

*Disclaimer: This blog post is not a financial advice, nor connected with a recommendation to buy or sell shares, but an educational article for those who are interested to know about investing in the stock market.

The stock market isn’t a money-making machine. What you should realize is that you can lose a part or all of your money, regardless of what you invest in. Before you invest, it is important to determine— whether investing in the stock market is for you or not.

The first and foremost question you need to ask yourself is, ”Am I willing to take a certain degree of risk?”, if the answer is ‘no’— you can ask yourself, „How to turn your ‘no’ into a ‘yes’!“. Most people who haven’t invested before, lack knowledge and experience. So, I can recommend navigating through books and YouTube videos (which I will list below), so that you can learn the basics— how to start investing in the stock market.

No matter what your profession is, getting along with your colleagues is a wonderful thing. For me personally, making blogger friends wasn’t easy. I went through lot of different periods, since my blogger career has started in 2010.

MY 7 FAVORITE CREATIVE APPS

November 13, 2019

Today I want to answer one of the most frequent questions I receive about apps I use to edit my pictures, stories and videos. Yes, 90% of my social media content is created with DSLR camera, except Instagram Stories which I shoot or film with my phone. Even though phones nowadays capture quality images, but there is nothing like a DSLR cameras. You can manually change and adjust the light, the shadow and the focus better. Which makes it look more professional when you edit them. However, if you don’t own a DSLR camera, you can use the portrait mode, focus, 4K video quality and use the right editing apps.

So what’s on my creative app list, when it comes to editing phone shots? Here are my 7 go-to’s below:

HOW I KEEP MYSELF MOTIVATED?

October 20, 2019

A question I get asked often “How can you stay motivated to wake-up early, workout, be in the office, go to appointments, attend events, travel, do this and do that?” My answer is, it’s only a mindset and a strong willpower.

Starting my day at 6 AM with warm lemon water, prepare a healthy breakfast and create a to-to list for the day, doesn’t always happen naturally. I do have “grey” days, when everything seems impossible, overwhelming, and difficult to have strong willpower to motivate myself and be productive.

10 FAVORITE PODCASTS TO ENHANCE YOUR LIFE AND CAREER

September 10, 2019

Over the past couple months, I’ve been getting so much into podcasts. I never thought I’d ever become a podcast person. Although I read lot of self-improvement, spiritual healing, sociology, psychology and career books, sometimes I prefer to listen to podcasts. It’s something different than books or watching TV and I love learning about new things in different ways. Inspirational podcasts give me another level of happiness and I consider it as a #SelfCare time, when I need to switch-off and motivate myself for new things.

June 19, 2019

If you’re in the “industry” and benefited a lot from Instagram for your business, what would happen if this platform suddenly disappeared? What would become of all your hard work and countless hours you invested in it? If Instagram vanishes, then the same will happen to Facebook as well. Think about it!

FEW THINGS I WISH I KNEW BEFORE STARTING MY BLOG

December 18, 2017

Lately I have been thinking to write more personal articles and especially to answer the frequent questions I get about blogging. As you may know, I started blogging in September 2010. Seven years back, when websites were the main platforms where bloggers shared their outfits, beauty, travel, lifestyle posts and everything seemed much easier. We didn’t had Instagram or Snapchat, so our subscribers were the real followers we had.

Working from home requires a certain type of individuality. With all of the distractions around, it’s impossible to always be focused on your work. I get excited of the energy that new year brings, because there is always such a strong momentum to our new plans in every area of our lives.
