How to Become a Better Negotiator? There are three main tactics to help you seal the deal when it come to negotiation. The ability to be an effective negotiator is crucial in business and in general, daily life. A common misconception is that negotiating is all about bargaining- it is not. Below are the 3 SECRETS to become a better negotiator and also a better communicator: 1. Listen empathetically, be an active listener (do this to find what the other person is looking for) 2. Preparation (tip: never go straight to a number/price). Prepare yourself for the deal (I.e. do you research on that product, on your negotiation partner, on the market price for that item). 3. A MYTH! : “Never make the first offer.” (Tip: set these 3 things: goal, target, & bottom line) The worst case scenario is breaking even. Instead, make knowledgeable offers! I learned all these secrets from Professor Mori Taheripour and you can learn more about negotiation with her Must-Read book (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07X9HJNWP). (NOT SPONSORED)

Here's a story of how I lost $500,000 in the stock market. I hope the story will give you some insight into the world of investing. From there, I will give out my recommendations of personal investment strategies: The strategy I follow when it comes to investing in stocks is the buy and hold strategy. A common misconception that you should avoid is to day trade/swing trade/speculate. Don’t be fooled by guys selling your stock trading programs or stock tips that will generate quick wealth. If you don't want to research into specific stocks, buy into funds like QQQ & SPY and make 6-8% annualized gain. Avoid investing completely in one company and learn to diversify. It’s too hard to time the market and you’ll actually end up losing money by trading stocks. STOP TRADING AND START INVESTING (SHORT TERM vs. LONG TERM). “Overnight rich” stories that seem too good to be true, ARE. Creating wealth is a LONG TERM process like anything good in life. Or, if none else, simply invest in YOURSELF and your own ventures.
