The Yoga of Mutual Funds

Share


Namaste! Hope you are doing well. It's a fact that the key to achieving overall well being is through having harmony and balance in life. Where and how can we achieve this? The answer lies in the title itself, Yoga. The word 'Yoga' is derived from the Sanskrit root 'Yuj', meaning 'to join' or 'to yoke' or 'to unite'.
Today's world is filled with uncertainties, you only can reminisce about the past, relish the present and yearn for a better future. However, for a better future you need to fix the present.
"Success is the sum of small efforts - repeated day in and day out". The same principle applies to investing in mutual funds. Start slowly and watch your money grow steadily. Yoga embarks on a spiritual journey of patience, resilience and success which positively correlates with the concept of mutual funds.

Let's look at some ways in which Yoga and Mutual funds are akin:

  1. 1. Diversification and Balance:

    Yoga aims to bring balance to the mind and body. Through various asanas, we can ensure that different parts of the body and aspects of the mind are closely attended to. We perform asanas that target various cells which help in achieving balance and yielding long-term benefits. One of the primary advantages of mutual funds is diversification. Mutual funds let you invest alongside others, giving you access to a diversified portfolio that lowers risk.


  2. 2. FIKAA’s professional Guidance:

    While yoga can be practiced independently, having guidance of a professional instructor can be beneficial in enhancing the experience. This will ensure that the asanas yield profits and thereby eradicate any risk of injuries. When talking about mutual funds which are managed by FIKAA's AI (artificial intelligence) which wisely makes decisions for you on how to allocate your fund's assets in order to achieve the best possible returns.


  3. 3. Long-term Benefits:

    However the benefits of yoga are not immediate. It's a tiny seed that we reap for a gigantic tree to grow. Regular practice over time leads to greater flexibility, strength, patience, resilience, endurance and overall health benefits. Similarly investing in mutual funds is considered to be a long-term strategy. The returns are not immediate, but over time, with the right fund, the investment can grow significantly.

  4. 4. Mindfulness:

    Yoga practitioners are expected to be present in the moment, listen to their inner self, connect with themselves first in order to boost self-confidence. Being mindful in the ways they think, feel and act will help them achieve their end-term goals. This is a very crucial aspect of investing in mutual funds. Fund managers and investors need to be mindful of market conditions, economic indicators, and other factors that might affect the investment.


  5. 5. Accessibility:

    Yoga is accessible to all. Which makes it suitable for beginners to advance practitioners. It can be adapted to various fitness levels, ages, and physical conditions. Yoga can be practiced at any time, anywhere and with minimal equipment. Similarly mutual funds are available to a wide range of investors, from beginners to those with substantial experience and capital.


  6. 6. Growth and Self-improvement:

    The goal of practicing yoga is personal growth and self-improvement. By performing yoga one has nothing to lose, all they do is make amends to the present to yield a reliable future. Likewise the goal of investing in mutual funds is to grow one's financial resources and achieve financial goals. In these stages of growth initial oscillations are common, but there will always be a guaranteed promising return.


  7. 7. Discipline:

    Yoga simply requires discipline, regular practice, adherence to techniques, and commitment. Same is the case with investing in mutual funds, as it requires discipline alongside patience while making regular contributions, adhering to investment strategies, and not reacting impulsively to the market fluctuations. This is what will help in successful mutual fund investing.
