‘MMI’ -Transformation to a selfless me
1.Introduction
I am the only daughter in my family. My dad passed away when I was very young. As a spoilt and pampered child in the house, I always think of what I want, and what I think. It is always Me, Myself and I (“MMI”). In my project, I would like to propose for a change in this undesired thought which ultimately affects my undesired behaviour. This selfish thought of mine has made me a very selfish person.
There are a few instances where my friends fell out with me due to my selfishness.I need to change my selfish behaviour, in this world, it should not be just MMI, and there are more than just this. Often, I am too impulsive, and it seems that my brain is taking full control of my behaviour and action too fast. I want to change this selfish behaviour before I losses more friends and my love ones. I know they are putting up with me for too long. I need to change my mind-set first and convinced myself that the MMI thoughts do not work in this world. It leads to a lot of unhappy people around me. Why do I have such a mind-set in the first place? I kept thinking that why my mother and my brother couldn’t give me more love? My mother has a mild stroke and all I think was, why should couldn’t communicate with me more often? If I can think the other way round, then my expectation of her will change. In my proposal, I will state that I wanted to change my selfish thoughts and behaviour. I will include the reasons why I need to change and what is the cause of my selfish behaviours and thoughts.

I will write a journal on a fortnight basis about myself and list down all the selfish and selfless behaviours that I have done. Initially, I believe that I will have more selfish behaviours then the latter one, but I hope that it will be slowly reduced.
After 3 weeks of this exercise, I should have an evaluation of myself for the behaviour change exercise

Assignment

The assignment is a written, individual assignment worth 40% of the total grade for the unit. You are asked to write a 2,000 word essay on the following.

The requirements of the assignment are important. Please read the following carefully.

The UK insurance industry currently has the following life-expectancy forecasts for people in their early 20s: Men, 82 years; Women, 84 years; at least one partner of a couple, 86 years. Thus, most people on the Behavioural Finance unit have lifetime investment horizons of over 60 years. This is what we mean by the very long term.

For the very long term investor there is something special about the stock market. There are strong arguments and evidence that say that the stock market is the best asset class for the very long term investor. This means that for your very long term future you should be investing in the stock market. So even if your future career has nothing to do with the stock market, you still have to know how the stock market works.

Assignment requirement: Write a 2,000 word essay. In the course of your essay you must answer the following questions (not necessarily in the same order in which they are given):

(1) Explain why the stock market is regarded as the best asset class for the very long term investor.
(2) What is the difference between passive investing and active investing?
(3) If you believe in modern finance and the EMH you will be a passive investor. If you believe that behavioural finance can be applied to very long term stock market investing you will be an active investor. Explain why?

Describe a belief that you would continue to believe even if solid logical evidence was supplied which demonstrated your belief could not possibly be true.

1. Syllogisms Please respond to the following:

The following discussion questions refer to the activity assigned under the Readings section for this week.

Explain the thinking process you used to identify the categorical propositions in these syllogisms.

Identify any premises or conclusions with which you did not agree or which you believe to be false.

Explain whether you found any syllogisms which appeared to be valid or invalid and why you think this is the case.

Diagram one of the syllogisms in Activity 9.1 or 9.2. Describe what your Venn diagram revealed. Explain whether you thought this method was useful or challenging.

2. Beliefs in Everyday Life Please respond to the following:

Describe a belief that you would continue to believe even if solid logical evidence was supplied which demonstrated your belief could not possibly be true.

Create a syllogism which proves that your belief is based in logical reasoning.

Evaluate the explanations and arguments of at least two (2) other students to determine whether there might be some underlying error in their reasoning. Provide the other students with evidence that they could use to eliminate any potential fallacies in their explanations and/or arguments.
