I am starting to believe that we are living in a new world, An alternate universe, Some serious start wars, star ship experience
Am really not kidding, Tradition as we know it is now a thing of the past and 5 years has suddenly become a time in history.
The alternate world on the Internet is so big that you can virtually live in it and do everything you want to do,. Hey I know a few people are still behind in catching this train but the shift is so massive any one who is not on this ship will eventually sink.
Am so excited and scared to death at the same time. The move is happening right before our eyes and we don't even see it. don't get me wrong it is cool if you are not in business and all to just lay back and enjoy the show but if you are in business it is necessary that you get your acts together because the market is shifting base
OK I may seem to be a bit pushy and sound like i am taking this a little too far but the truth is i just hope i don't have to take the pain to explain to anyone how they missed the biggest opportunity of a life time
We need to be authentic and make a true and honest representation of our self over the web as in the nearest future, doing business on the web will be the tradition way to do business.
So do we look for customers or friends? or are are our customers now friends
Lets hear your views
PLAIN SIGHT
This blog gives an opportunity to share thoughts and experiences of different phases and places we find our selves.

STOP! ITS NOT HELPING
Please take one minute to examine this
Is it really helping or slowing you down?
If its slowing you down, you need to STOP because its not helping
What am I going on about? I am going on about
Laziness
Anger
Self pity
Addiction
And a host of other stuff that gets us down, you all know what your own little thing is
If by your own admission its slowing you down, then it needs to stop
I know its hard but we need to stop it now because it is prolonging our journey to success and may eventually grind us to a halt
PASS the message on.
WE KNOW ITS TOUGH BUT STOP, IF IT'S NOT HELPING !!!
Thank You

BETWEEN THE SHEETS
Great secrets are shared between the sheets, Great men and women have used this avenue to express passion and share long periods of exploration and achievement... Wait a minute, I hope I have not lost you. I am talking about the sheets of paper that make up a book.
Now that I have gotten your attention, I need to ask one question, I am going to ask myself because I don't want to lie, you will need to ask yourself too. When was the last time I read a book that added value to my life? The answer is simple, Last week. I am so happy I could sincerely give that answer because before then I had not seen the inside of a value adding book for months. Please don't get me wrong, I know the importance of reading, I just dint plan myself well enough to stick a book in my bag for reading.
This is what I have been trying to say about hiding the answer to our questions in plain sight. Books offer a range of experiences from Authors who have accomplished greatly, people who some of us consider mentors. One thing I can tell you about accomplished people is that they always want to give back to the public, This is true because at one point in their lives they were just like me and you.
To connect to someone that cannot be easily reached, we must set up a connection. I understand, a book is one way form of communication. I solve that little set back by just seeing a book as the answer sheet to my questions.
When I have a question I go to a book store and look for the most qualified person to answer my question. Wow now that i have said it i cant believe it came out of my mouth!! If this is so simple why have i wasted so many years wondering the answers to questions in my mind. I will give the answer to my own question shortly
Its kinda of funny answering my own question, back to the subject matter. The answer is simple. 8 out of 10 times we know the solution to our problems. Sometimes we are even dead sure. The only thing is that we don't like that solution, so we seek alternatives. we go and seek counsel from friends we are certain will tell us exactly what we will like to hear.
Let me say it again, We know the answer but avoid it, We even go as far as to seek counsel, hoping to get an alternative. This indicates that most of the time we are the only ones holding ourselves back.
What a revelation or maybe not, I am sure most of us know this already. I am going to try something and see how much knowledge i will have in a year. I will pick a book a month to read and hopefully I will find some of the answers I seek.
See Ya

ON THE ROAD TO FREEDOM
My destination is new, my destination is foreign. I set out in my mind on a journey to freedom.
I have never been to this place before or seen it, all I have is the beautiful picture now stuck in my head.
This should be an exciting trip. The most important question is when do I leave and how do I get there? Where is freedom? Is there anyone who has been there that can help, Is there a guide I can follow?
No journey is completed in the mind, although almost every journey would start there. To get from my current location to freedom. All above questions needs to be answered.
I need a clear map to guide me and a strategy to get there using all available resources. I am really excited about this journey because when I get to freedom, I will have all that i ever wanted, I will get more than I could ever imagine but as I start on my journey a great storm begins to brew. The sky becomes intensely dark and the journey starts to seem like a bad idea. This might be a sign to postpone. Do I forge on my journey to freedom or quit now?
The journey must continue. I have just about enough money to take me to freedom and just about enough supplies. This is a journey of many days. Many have embarked on this journey and sent back news of victory and also the story of challenges faced. Every one has their storms and now mine is at hand.
We all take journeys to places we desire at different times in our lives. The journey is usually a long and hard one with many small and great storms along the way. I am on my journey and I am prepared to face every storm because I know the sun will rise again and I will stand on the hill top of freedom with the storms behind me and a new life ahead.
Challenges may come and stall us but we must imagine how it will be after the storm and rise above it. No storm is powerful enough to overcome the human mind except we allow it ourselves. Most of the fight is within. Overcome inner storms and outer storms will bow at your courage
See Ya.

THE GREAT MAN'S SHOES
The talk of a great man the works or a great man and the death of a great man always comes with a reflection of how brilliant the great man was is and will ever be
I am a great man in my own respect. I have done great things, doing great things and will do even greater things, but how do you fill the shoes of a great man .
This really puzzles me as most great men did not fill the shoes of other great men and some of them did. Does this mean that great men are born. Can greatness be passed on to another or to a generation. I really cant tell. I know one thing though, great men open new doors. they open our eyes to possibilities and show the world that anything is possible if you believe.
My heart is heavy with burden and stricken with fear when the white Elephant falls but also greatly encouraged by the prospects of a new discovery. Many great men will be remembered 2000 years from now. I just hope the world will be a better place then....
RIP Steve Jobs

PAPER DRAMA
Today everyone is keen on
getting their hands on it. Funny thing is that everyone needs it but
not everyone wants it. Most people want to receive it and a few want
to create it from nothing... In general most people just expect it.
Oh pardon me I am talking about
money.
My concern
about this paper is where to find it, in what currency do I want it.
Most important of all.... I am really considering what to do with it. Do I save
it in a bank or start up a bank my self. I really like banks because they are
legally allowed to create money.. how kool is that! Banks are allowed to
create credit for customers based on the assumption that customers do not under
any normal condition withdraw their money at once, that has created a global mess already .... enough of the
finance lesson
I am not really
here to write about money.............. OK maybe I was but changed my
mind. I have been studying and watching success most of my life and
begun to understand success more and more daily
.Imagine waking up
one morning to find out that the whole city has been evacuated in other for
only you to live in all the riches and splendour you could possibly have. Left
alone to party with a blank check, the ability to walk into any bank and
withdraw any amount you want... Imagine that annoying milk man is no more and
the cries from your bosses become a thing of the past.
Imagine no more noisy
school children on the bus chatting away and creating an unbearable journey.
Hey that should be fun, No more poor customer service because now you are left
alone to be your own companion, your own friend and your own family.
The most
interesting thing about this is that the rest of the world still exist but the
you are unable to reach them and they are unable to reach you . Now let wake up
from this bad dream.
The things in life we count sometimes are not as valuable
as the things we don't count and mostly complain about. The people we
interact with daily, the annoying driver on the motor way. The bikers who think
the road was created for them . The people who talk behind our backs and those
who bring the fight to us. The thousands of people we pass daily without
any thought that they play a role in our lives. If everyone left and
we were all alone, we would cherish the currency of love and association a bit
more dearly
Money is great but
to be completely wealthy you need to be able to value life daily, experience it and live it. I know today is the most important day of my life
cos one day when we wake up we may never return to bed. Cherish every moment
dearly...... Do what you love and make the best of life
See Ya

MOVING ON
Where do I start. Another lesson learnt. If you start something, finish it as it gets harder the next time round or at least it takes more time.
I also have to see if this is the best use of my time. I am sure it is, as writing helps me reflect on the areas of my life that needs to be addressed and also pass on my experience to someone else.
Some say experience is the best teacher but sometimes the art of converting an experience, requires a skill on its own. Enough of the lecture. Am sure this is not news to you.
To get out of my circle of activities which was then my life. I needed to know one thing, who I was and what my purpose was in life.
I wanted to change lives but there are a million ways to do this. I could easily have become a police officer or a fireman and my goal would have been achieved but something in me screamed for more.
My journey of self discovery led me to the greatest inspiration of all, Jesus. That was after two failed business attempts . Failing to successfully run a business is one if the greatest experiences a man can have. When you fail at something, you gain the courage to do more than anyone who has never tried because you now know the worst that could possibly happen.
Let me jump into how I travelled from meeting God to writing this post. I decided that to get on in life, I had to be focused. I realised that no one would help me but me. This realisation is no understatement because until you realise that the only rescue operation that will happen is in a scenario where you save yourself and maybe get the girl or guy... I am getting carried away, this is not a movie scene., moving on
You are your only lifeline or at least I realised I was mine. This opened a door for me to see into the world differently. I saw an opportunity in the mist of smoke and I saw a way in places others feared to cross. I learnt the harsh lesson about life and every aspects of it.
This part led me to discover the power behind people. How your dealings with people can make or break you. I learnt that choosing to take one step could mean the difference in the life of another.
I could go on and on and on and as a result I won't get anyone to write my biography as I would have succeeded in writing it my self.... Just joking I want to tell you more but at the same tine. Not sure the story is what you want to here.
Five rules to getting ahead of your challenges
1. Know your God and you will find yourself and your purpose
2. Work hard and take every opportunity.
3. Choose the right partner
4. Integrity is the oldest trick in the book. Be honest and be wise, you will never lack a days pay.
5. You have everything you need to succeed. All you need to do is use your resources.
This are the basics. We can begin to expand on them and still not get all the answers and to be truthful. I have the guide but the answer for you may be different.
I hope to share more and pass on some more..... Which I will. I know when you get to this point in reading you will ask yourself is this the best use of my time. I hope it was.
