63. Concentrate on what you have and want, not what others havethis can be a really hard thing to do, especially when your neighbour is flaunting his brand new swimming pool and your co-worker just received a $3000 bonus but you didn't. Take a deep breath and push past those jealous and frustrated feelings. Concentrate on your own goals for the financial future and prove that you are better than those petty feelings of resentment.


64. Swap High Interest for No Interest- one of the great things about the competition of credit cards is that it is possible to get no interest on bank transfers. This means you can swap your credit card debt to another financial institution and receive their low introductory rate. You can stand to save thousands of dollars in interest and pay off that looming credit card debt faster. This crafty financial move can leave you feeling proud and smart.


65. Think to the future- We all want to live for right now but it's important to secure your financial future by investing in your retirement. Contributing to a 401 (k) plan or the equivalent can help you grow up, gain responsibility and improve your general financial understanding.

importance. - Make time for Hobbies- it's important for people to have hobbies. As we get older it's easy to stop those extra-curricular activities that you loved as a child such as sports. Look for adult activities such as soccer teams, book clubs, rowing clubs or bird watching groups. Keep your passions alive by re-connecting with the hobbies and activities that you once loved. - Look down- take a hike to the top of a cliff that overlooks the city, or jump on an elevator and ride the lift to the top floor and look down.

No one likes going to the dentist- but no one wants to lose his or her teeth either. 15. De-stress- remaining healthy is not just about go, go, go. You also need to stop, relax and re-stress. Stress is unavoidable at some times. The best way to deal with stress is to push away from it for a few minutes, let your body relax, and then tackle it head on. 16.
