Sri Lanka CB issues warning on illegal forex trading It has come to the notice of the Central Bank that advertisements are being made in the print and electronic media and internet and unsolicited e-mails are being circulated by some companies’ proprietary concerns and individuals, exhorting the public to engage in foreign exchange trading with assurances of guaranteed high returns. Some companies and proprietary concerns have even engaged their employees or agents who would personally contact the members of the public to entice them to undertake forex trading with promises of exorbitant returns. These agents and the advertisements on the internet and in the print and electronic media often exhort people to trade in foreign exchange, depositing an initial investment in Sri Lanka rupees with a company, proprietorship concern or individual in Sri Lanka to be transferred later into an online account or payment through credit, debit or any other electronic funds transfer card direct to an online account opened in the name of the investor. The Central Bank in the recent past has come across instances where several persons have lost large sums of monies due to the above activities carried on by some unscrupulous individuals and companies. The Central Bank wishes to inform the general public that undertaking foreign exchange trading transactions and remitting payments outside Sri Lanka for such transactions by any person without the approval of the Central Bank is illegal and violation of the provisions of Section 5(1) and 7(a) of the Exchange Control Act. This is considered as a punishable offence under the Exchange Control Act and the bank requests the general public not to fall prey to such transactions.

Carry on your work at home job with proper planing.

Most of the people who are working from their home for a living must understand to fix a time table for them to work tirelessly, if you are working as a freelancer. First find out how many hours you are working truly when you are connected to the internet while you are working. If you check good you can find out you had spend so many hours of your working time by reading news and watching video clips. Some time hijacked by the video games.
So here is our best guide for you.
Make a list of the works you had done in your computer every day.
See how many hours you had worked in a day and out of that how many hours you had really worked with out reading materials or watching latest videos.

Most of the home workers don’t pay much attention to their finished works. Every day they will watch plenty of files done half way only and waiting to be completed in many folders. Get them all together and read them again one by one and delete them or complete them. First finish all these old files and try to start new projects if there is no time limit for you. Your computer is your work assistant and keep it with out much files for it produce faster working speed for you.
Find out at which hours of the day you are performing well. Then keep with that hours for working and the other times turn off your computer and go on with your daily household works . Sure this will give you most productive hours in a day rather than sitting and wasting of your time in fornt of you computer with fatigue.

I know a popular writer who is working from his home as a freelancer works only three hours for a day in his laptop. He takes off with his bicycle at around 7.00 Am to a near by cool spot next to a river and starts his work around 8.00 am and with out a fuss he continues to work up to 11.00 AM and within this time he finishes all his work and pack up form the spot to his home reaches it by 12.00 noon to call it as a day.
At hoe he sub its his work to those blogs and webs and then read some emails to catch up with his lunch before the children reach home from their schools.

So if you can catch out the time when you are really productive then it will make you to enjoy the life with out any fuss. Also this will enable you more healthier body wise as your are moving much every day rather than idling at a place with out doing any body work out. This new schedule will give you more time to spend with your family and with your family pets.
