Stages of Wealth, by Billionaire Femi Otedola, Whatwill you be remembered for?

 Stages Of Wealth, By Billionaire Femi Otedola.

What will you be remembered for?

I am a football fan, not a fanatic. 

The death of this golden legend called Diego Maradona got me wondering about the essence of life. Little wonder when billionaire Femi Otedola  in a telephone interview, was asked by the radio presenter 

 "Sir what can you remember made you the happiest man in life?"

Femi Otedola said:

I have gone through four stages of happiness in life and finally, I understood the meaning of true happiness. 

1. The first stage was to accumulate wealth and means. But at this stage, I did not get the happiness I wanted. 

2. Then came the second stage of collecting valuables and items. But I realized that the effect of this thing is also temporary and the luster of valuable things does not last long.

3. Then came the third stage of getting big projects. That was when I was holding 95% of the diesel supply in Nigeria and Africa. I was also the largest vessel owner in Africa and Asia. But even here I did not get the happiness I had imagined. 

4. The fourth stage was the time a friend of mine asked me to buy a wheelchair for some disabled children. Just about 200 kids. 

At the friend's request, I immediately bought wheelchairs. 

But the friend insisted that I go with him and hand over the wheelchairs to the children. I got ready and went with him. 

There I gave these wheelchairs to these children with my own hands. I saw the strange glow of happiness on the faces of these children. I saw them all sitting on the wheelchairs, moving around, and having fun. 

It was as if they had arrived at a picnic spot where they are sharing a jackpot winning.

I felt REAL joy inside me. When I decided to leave one of the kids grabbed my legs. I tried to free my legs gently but the child stared at my face and held my legs tightly.

I bent down and asked the child: Do you need something else?

The answer this child gave me not only made me happy but also changed my attitude to life completely. This child said: 

"I want to remember your face so that when I meet you in heaven, I will be able to recognize you and thank you once again"


 *What would you be remembered for after you leave that office or place?*

Will anyone desire to see your face again where it all matters?

What will your friends, neighbors, the world at large remember you for?

Festive time is here again, many people are concerned about my family and me. Many are not thinking of those that do not have.

Make time to do something to make someone else smile this season.

Reach out to Orphanages, hospital. Donate. Touch a life. In Nigeria alone, we have countless people who are hungry, who lack good clothes. Some can not pay their medical bills. Please reach out.

This got me thinking. I pray it does the same to everyone.

Relationship Hacks Do and Don'ts in Relationship

 There are many relationship hacks, relationship tips flying around. It's wise to be careful what you take in. 

In this post I will be sharing 10 Relationship Hacks 

Happy reading.


In your relationship here is my number 1.

1. Don't compare. It is important for couples or couples to be not to compare their partner to someone else. It hurts a lot.


2. Don’t go to bed angry. It always amazes me how something minor can turn into something big! We don’t argue about the important things, but we sure can get steamed up over the small stuff. These disagreements can go downhill when we we’re tired or hungry. Early in our marriage we created a tradition where we talk and discuss anything that could be bothering us. It gave us time to stay up into the wee hours trashing something out until we find our way through it. Then we make up, apologize and go to sleep.

This may look difficult if you find it difficult to forgive and let go of little things. But with the help of God you can change gradually.

You need to get to a point where you forgive your partner ahead. I call it forgive in advance. That is the easy way to go to bed without hurts. Because if you don't forgive or make excuses for your partner in advance you may not be able to forgive truely when they apprologize. 

3. Don’t give up on the important things. Most frequently, couples argue about one or more of these —food, kids, money, sex, in-laws and housework. On many occasion my hubby and I  often disagreed, but when it is something that matters to us we keep discussing it till we find a good ground. It may take days or weeks but we keep going back to that issue.  When we had a disagreement, we didn’t give up on each other. It might take us weeks to find a compromise but we persisted.


4. Don't ever try to change him or her. Everyone had a different background, likes and dislikes. Accept them for who they are. Never go into relationship with the mind of changing him or her. Its only God that has that ability. Love them for who they are.


5. Don’t take offense. Do not take offence. And if you do, be quick to forgive. Just because your partner does something that’s insensitive, thoughtless or selfish, it’s not necessary to take offense. We can, but we don’t have to. Most of the time, we do things that upset our loved one without the intent to hurt or frustrate them. Cut each other some slack! And always work together as a team. Remember to forgive in Advance. 

6. Don't Allow Third Party

Your marriage is for you and your spouse. Do not allow in-law, friends to influence your discission. Be close to your spouse and be open to each other instead of letting someone else give you wrong advice.

The easy way to not allowing third party is to have strong bond and communicate often. When you tell each other things as it happens it will be quite difficult for anyone come in between.


7. Don’t take your partner for granted. Over the course of your relationship, there are months at a time when family or work demand our complete time and attention. During those periods still try to create time for each other. During those times, when you feel neglected, don’t get angry at your loved one. Instead, let them know how much you miss them. When you speak it makes things easier. Than when you just keep it to yourself.

8. Do celebrate the important stuff. It is important to celebrate each other as often as possible. What’s important in your relationship? For me, it was our family (we both loved having kids), our love, and our shared sense of purpose and meaning. Celebrate your love, your birthday, anniversary. Surprise each other even when there isn't a special event after all everyday is special and you only get to see it once. Send her gifts even when it isn't her birthday. Visit her at work. Give her money for shopping unexpectedly. Buy him gifts. celebrate every wins, surprise him with a call or a message to affirm your love or reassure him that you are proud of him. Make his best meals. And try not to forget his or her special dates.


9. Do accept your partner for who she is. Love your partner for who they are, not for who you think they could become. That doesn’t mean that you have to like everything about them! 

I am sure you have the phrase "Opposites attract" and then spend the next 20 years trying to make their partner into a mirror image of themselves. Your loved one can change their behavior, with much difficulty, if they want to change. But we can’t change our basic personality.

10. Communication is key. Call each other as often and possible. Speak, talk and have fun.

Couples that chat, talk through out the day won't mostly have martial issues.

I would love to hear form you.

GETTING YOUR BRAIN TO THINK IN NEW CREATIVE WAYS

 GETTING YOUR BRAIN TO THINK IN NEW CREATIVE WAYS


1.  Engage in Observation Sessions. 


I'm telling you the truth, the world is already too too noisy and yet alot of human beings are also noisy internally! They are not in synch with their instinct, their soul and spirit... 


See, let me say this, great ideas won't happen in a vacuum. 

You need some way of getting your brain to think in new and creative ways. 


Commit time to specific sessions where you stimulate your brain into thinking differently. 

I love to call it "me time" Have a time where you lock the world out and think.

A simple walk through my estate can introduce me to exciting activity and behavior that makes me think anew. 


Any crowded urban area or  mall can do the same.


Also, I read a lot and I read  ANYTHING!!!! so far it is not junks.

I learn a lot from.

 Just looking at people!!! Sighs

My question to you is, do you ever take time to slow down and observe?


Do you have an observation strategy?


2. Read More Books


I can tell you this for free, books are wonderful for creating new thoughts and stimulating great ideas. 


I started reading self help books very very early in life . When I added business books to my routine, it helped me learn more and expand my way of thinking. And several years ago, I started  reading biographies and histories. These stories really got me out of my daily headspace and activated my idea generator. 


See, even if you can't make the time for a book, go hunt down a bookstore and spend an hour browsing. You'll find plenty of thought stimulation.

When you read books constantly your thinking partner will change drastically.

The way people title their books, triggers ideas in me!!!! Just go to a bookstore, check 100 book titles.. If you do it mindfully, you'll get ideas.

I sometimes get lost in book shops, looking at books and their table of content.

3. Socialize Outside Your Normal Circles

Hanging around with the same friends and colleagues can get you in a thinking rut. (as in, mental 'stagnation') for example, you're a banker and everyone in your circle are bankers, you're not mixing INTENTIONALLY with other people with different professional background... Trust me, you'll think your father's farm is the Biggest. Intentionally go out with new crowd. If you are constantly with a group change for a while. Your thinking will change. Show me your friend i will show who you are.

Your group of friends has a lot to do with what you can achieve in life. If you are among successful people your chances of becoming successful is high and vise is the case.


Do an assessment this weekend, check the mix of the people in your network. 

Pls take advantage of all those LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram connections and start some exciting conversations. 

You see ba, new people don't know all your thought patterns and old stories, so you'll have to revisit your existing inner monologues. Meanwhile you all need to read this book by Malcom Gladwell: TALKING TO STRANGERS. 

The refreshing perspectives from people of different professional background from yours will help to surface new thinking and possibly a lightning bolt or two.

Am I making sense?

I would love to hear what you think in the comment below.


Thanks for reading.

Who says money is not good? Is a big liar.

This is one out of many who have made name and fame through MLM.
You too can if you believe and work at it.

NETWORK MARKETING IS A GAME CHANGER

MY STORY

My names are Kizito Ngoma from Zambia, I grow up from the deepest village in mkush where everyone believes a plane ✈ is a bird 🐦. Have stayed 9 days surviving with green mango due to lack of food. I came to Lusaka to look for some piece work then I started working as a dishwasher. I have a dream and My salary wasn't enough. Have changed 5 jobs because i wanted a good salary that can help me to archive my dreams. I came across with some good post from a gentleman on Facebook who posted his pic on a plane going to Kenya 🇰🇪. I was so inspired, thats how I communicated with the guys and he showed me the business. I believe risk takers always win, I had no money but I borrowed. Today my life has changed, I graduated from a boy to a man, I'm now making sense to my family because I make some money.
Take this business seriously and it will pay you with serious money.

Be Good No Matter What



Let me share a friends experience with you. I learnt a lot form this.


While I was admitted some months back at the hospital, something happened and it thought me a valuable lesson I was going to hold onto for a long time.


This woman who nursed her sick husband whose bed was just opposite mine, walked up to me.


She told me she had brought no cups along with her and she needed a cup she could use to bath her husband when he finally wakes up from sleep. She asked if I had any cup available to give her.


I told her I had brought none. The one I brought had been taken home. I do not use cups to pour water on my body. I used my hands. But she could make use of the cup on my water flask if she chose to. 


She asked if I was okay with it, and I told her it was fine.


"Just use it. The flask has another cover on it. Use it." I smiled so she doesn't feel somehow about it.


She thanked me and left with the cup. Soon when her husband was awake, she walked him to the bathroom to have his bath, using the flask cup as a fetcher.


Moment later, when her husband was fast asleep again, she returned to me and asked if I had hot water in my flask. She told me they had no flask and her doctors said her husband will have to be drinking warm water always since he had just undergone a surgery.


I told her there was hot water in the flask and I stretched my hands, picked it, and handed it over to her.


I watched as she made tea for herself using the water from my flask, and drank the tea from the flask cup. When her husband was awake, she made him tea in the same cup and handed over to him to drink.


During that period, the flask was always with her and I didn't even bother to ask for it. I noticed her sick husband needed the hot water more than I did. As for me, I was already recovering fast and was just waiting to be discharged.


The day I was to be discharged, I went to the bathroom to take my bath. But then I thought of using the flask cover for the first time. I returned and asked the woman if I could use the flask cover to have my bath. This time, the husband was now awake and staring at me with his eyes wide open.


She told me to pick the cover. 


While I turned to leave, her husband called me back.


"What do you want to use the cover for?"


I told him I wanted to use it to have my bath.


"Drop it please." He pointed angrily to the table.


He turned to his wife and scolded her.


"Why will you give him our flask cover to go and bath with? Why? I don't like this attitude of yours please. How will you share my cover with someone I do not know? Do you know the sickness he came with to the hospital?"


I dropped the flask cover on the table without saying a word, and walked to the bathroom. When I was done having my bath, I returned back to my bed and the wife brought the flask back to me. She thanked me for borrowing her the flask.


"At a point I forgot I had even borrowed the flask from you. Thank you so much. Please don't be angry."


I smiled and collected the flask from her. Before she left, she apologised again for her husbands rude behaviour towards me. I told her it was okay and I wasn't feeling bad about it.


When I asked if she had a flask for her husband's tea and hot water, she told me she didn't. But she planned buying one when money comes in.


I handed the flask back to her and told her to keep it. 


"Use it for his water. I will buy a new one when I get home."


She was so excited. She thanked me severally, before turning to leave. The husband who laid on the bed, waved and smiled at me.


"Thank you. God bless you. Thank you very much." He smiled excitedly.


I left that hospital with a lesson.


Sometimes we offer help to people who wouldn't do same for us in return if we were in there shoes. We make sacrifices for people who wouldn't think of making such sacrifices for us too. 


I have found myself doing things for people who denied me same favour when I needed it most. But that didn't stop me from being good and rendering help when they need it. It shouldn't stop you either. 


Don't stop doing the right thing just because they don't do same for you. A good act will always speak for you. It may not come through them, but it will definitely come through someone else.

Many African children are exposed I'll speech form when they are little. Many parents and guardian have been very abusive.

Verbal insult is one of the most common form of abuse and many are not a wear because they don't know better.

Today I need you to change the narrative for yourself, your friends, your spouse and your children. And Greet your spouse well.

Time to Equip Yourself




By Victoria Yoosuff

There is a major RUSH Coming!


What are you doing Now!
This is the time to Equip yourself!

THIS TOO SHALL PASS!! FOR GOD HAS NOT GIVEN US THE SPIRIT OF FEAR BUT THAT OF SOUND MIND.....


I am a firm believer in the word of God and I take root in it everyday especially in times like this. Pandemics come and go, the question is who will you be when all of this is over?

Whatever the case, do not only use this time to catch up on NETFLIX and GIST. I'm yet to sit and watch a movie form beginning to the end. That doesn't mean I don't relax or have fun, I do. I watch Cartoons with my kids. I watch short clips of movie with my hubby but right now isn't the time for me to waste on so many movies... Lol.

Rest all you must, but also develop all you can. This is the best and maybe the longest Holidays you may have in a long time. Soon after the Knockdown there will be a massive rush! Are you getting ready for that time?


Is your Business ready for that? What new skills have you learnt in the pass 2 Weeks of Lockdown.

Here are a few tips of mine:

* Learn a skill and it must not be business related.

* Learn to care for your skin yes I was able to read more on this and I also shared tips with someone ladies and I got paid. You should try it too. It was really fun. I tell you it's the Best time to Pamper yourself.

* Learn to makeup ( I have done a course on this due to the Lock down.)

* Learn to cook or bake a cake. There are many platform where you can learn how to cook online form the comfort of your home. It's amazing what you can achieve with the internet these days. Try this out and I would love to hear your success story.

* Learn how to move your business online. This is the best idea here. Because the world of business is changing at the speed of light. And you have to be ready to move with it so you are not left behind.

* Learn digital marketing skills like (Copy writing, ADs creation, Sales funnel development, Sales closing, sales prospecting online, Writing captions that convert etc)

* Learn to lose weight and keep it off. I started a  regular routine now since I can't go to the gym. I do my exercise at home and it's really fun because my kids are involved. We dance to gospel music of our choice till we set a new record. You should try it out too.

* Learn to dance. You can use YouTube videos to learn dancing and have fun while you are at it.

* Learn to monetize your Knowledge and business online. I super love this!  I have been doing this for a while now and it's amazing how much you can earn with the know you have.

This global lock-down is a leveler of time. We are all trapped in the same time loop. This is an opportunity to EMERGE and be ready for POST COVID-19 RUSH. The rush is coming! It will be fierce, like a crusade rush some people will be trampled upon and others will emerge with torn outfits while some unfazed.

Prepare for the RUSH!

Lucrative business You Can Start In Nigeria.


Written by Victoria Yoosuff

There are many businesses today that you can start with 100k for Less in Nigeria. 
Here are a few that won't require much experience.  With Determination and hard work you will surely make it. 

1. Bedsheet/Beddings Production.

This is one business that is very lucrative. You could either buy and resell or you go to the Market yourself. Pick good designs of bed sheets.Get a tailor to see it for you. Package it well and marketing and sales begins.


2.Ready to Wear:

A sweet side hustle. Relax you don't need to see the clothes yourself. There are tailors in Abuja, Kano, Lagos will be more than happy to have clothes to sew. If you are a fashionista get some fabrics get a tailor or two to design ready to wear. Package it well and off you go. Marketing to working class ladies who are to busy to go through the hoodies of getting a good tailor. 

3. E-Payments and POS Business:

Right now this is the fastest growing business. You can a get POS machine from your Bank, and activate online banking: If you live in a place where banks aren’t much you can handle e-payments for people and make your small change. I paid someone N200 to withdraw 10k. I use POS most of the time just so I can avoid the queue at the ATM and banks. 


4. Fairly Used Goods/ Second Hand Items 

Fairly used goods such as Jeans, Tops, t-shirts, shoes etc. They can be sourced at Badagry, even Cotonou. With 100k you can pick or settle 1st Grade and resell and in no time you will have enough money to start buying bale of second hand clothes. You can even go a step further,  aash then and pack neatly. Marketing is all it takes, you’ll sell and see your money multiply.

5. Cooking:

You can cook a variety of meals well and apply customer service, People will pay good money for your services, You can run this from home.

6. Cakes and Confectionery:

This is one business that always comes to play, people celebrate, and bakers are always consulted. I started my baking with less than 50k, and with time I purchased other things bit by bit. 


7. Aso-Oke Beading and Stoning and Auto Gele :

Embellished Aso-Oke Beading and Stoning has become in vogue now, and this is another sweet business one can start with 100k. You just have to learn how to bead and unlock your creative mind. Also Auto Gele has become even more fashionable. 

8. Bead Making:

Bead making requires training, passion, creativity, unique designs and styles, then adequate marketing. Thank God for Social Media. Advertising has become so easy.  You absolutely don’t need 100k to start this.

9. Barber:

This is another profitable small-scale business. The beautiful thing about this is you bring your services to your clients for an extra token above regular. The starting capital to get the equipment is very minimal, a clipper and a pair of scissors.

10. Tutorial Classes:

No matter your age, this is another well-paying job, either as part-time or full-time. Many families are willing to spend what it takes for their children’s success and there’s one subject you’re well versed at. Just close the gap, meet their need for a fee.

11. Cyber Cafe:

There has been extensive coverage of internet and the fact that people can assess it on their phones, Do you know how much applicants pay just to have Jamb applications filled online? You need a good system, printer & ISP. People pay as much as 1k per application.

12. Online Classes 

With the vast improvement in technology and social media, you can start hosting classes online. You could use WhatsApp groups. All you need is Data, good phone and information. You can teach people on a closed group on anything of your choice. 


13. Production Of Drinks and Small Chops:

Smoothies,Zobo, Kunu,  cocktail, small chops, cupcakes and chinchin! These are constantly in high demand all over the country and even abroad. With marketing branding and packaging you are sure to make it big. 


15. Popcorn:

Popcorn is what we buy every time. Bags of corn, Nylon Sugar, Salt & Butter. The beauty of this is when properly made, its aroma will attract its customers. Popcorn can be served anywhere. It costs less than N50 to make a pack of popcorn.


15. Re-Invest Your seed Capital in an existing business.

Not everyone has the head for business but they can sniff opportunities. You can always sow your money as operating capital and draft an agreement on profit sharing. You can at least support your investment by bringing customers so the business can thrive. Market it on all your social media pages and who knows. Famzhi Investment is an opportunity you don't wanna miss. 


I would love to hear from you if this was helpful in anyway. Kindly leave a comment below. 
Thanks.

Who Should I Marry? By Victoria Yoosuff


Who Should I Marry? 
By Victoria Yoosuff



Marriage is a union between a mature man and a mature woman. It is ordained by God Almighty. It is not a union between the teenagers or children. It is for those who know that they are mature and can take the responsibility of another adult in their life, space, and in their time.

It is very key to go with a manual of any product to use it effectively. To understand its use and functions you need the manual. The Manual of a product tells you so much about the functions, responsibility the button to press for a particular thing t happen. In the same vein, you need the Bible which is our Manual to successful marriage. It contains many story guidelines on how to succeed in your marital pursuit. It also tells us how many failed and many others succeeded in their marriage.


It's important to know what is expected from the man and woman before going into marriage. It is also great for you to know how to choose a life partner.
Some people see marriage as necessary evil. It’s the most activity they have to carry out,  because they have finished their higher education and now have a good job. They feel the next thing is for them to marry.
Some others go into marriage as a contract. If it works they stay, but if it doesn't then walk away.

Marriage should not be seen as an escape route from all your problems in life. Marriage can not solve your problem. If you are not happy as a single marriage can not complete you. Marriage is going to amplify what you already carry. If you were dirty before you will still be dirty after marriage. If you were fulfilled and confident about yourself, your confidence would likely increase.

Please note marriage is not going to make you complete or happy.  If you are not complete in yourself as single it is not marriage that will complete you.

 Your single years is not just a waiting time. It is a time to prepare yourself, equip yourself in all ways possible. You need to be ready for the task ahead. To be a lover to a total stranger is not an easy task. To submit cook for your family two or three times a day is no joke.


 I met Joy some years ago in the university. She was planning of getting married and I asked her some questions about marriage what was her view. What her goals were and what they have planned to achieve? I was dazed and very disappointed by her reply. She said she plans of marrying her school sweetheart.

 They had not made plans of where they will leave, what their goals were. She said all that will take care of itself after we get married in three months.
I could not hold myself, I had already screamed before I knew it. Their plan was to get married soon after they graduated without jobs, skills, no investment in place.
They had not define their roles expectations and boundaries. They made no plans for their finance. We had a long talk that day and the next and she later told me she had to cancel plans to marry after school. They now agreed to get a job and save for some months before their wedding.

 You cannot marry and have a happy home without money. Without a regular inflow of cash, you cannot have a successful home. One or both parties must be working.
 Marriage doesn’t guarantee happiness, because many ladies feel when I just get married I will be happy.

Marriage in itself would not make you happen. Marriage cannot make you fulfilled. If you want to happy look for happiness outside marriage. You should create your happiness.  This means that you have other things that should make you happy. The one and surest way to be happy and remain happy is God. Many things like food, money, sex, drugs, fame, promotion, children, spouse, and many more can make you happy for a while. But only God can give you lasting joy and happiness. Therefore if you are looking for love find God. Only God can help you to be the right person and help you choose right.

Please note is very important that you create your happiness. You own it to yourself to be happy. No man or woman can guaranty you of your happiness. After you, have God. You have to do what makes God and you happy. If you wait for your spouse, you may wait for a long time.

Here are a few tips:

1. RESPECT
Respect is very important in any relationship. Therefore never marry anyone who you cannot respect. Because
"Respect" is reciprocal!!  I love to say if you respect yourself, you will be respected.

Have self-worth! Don't belittle yourself. Have a standard of who you want and what you stand for. What you will accept and what you would not. Respect yourself enough to know who should be among your friends. Any man who requires you to sleep with him before marriage isn't for you. Wait for your man. Wait for that man who will treat you as his Queen.
Don't manage a guy who will treat you like garbage.


2. EDUCATION: It is very important to have a teachable heart.
Marry someone ready to learn. Someone ready to be corrected. Many situations will happen over and over that you will have to correct each other. In your relationships seek people or a lady or a guy who is ready to be corrected. Education isn't only about school. Because we have formal and informal education. So it's not only about certificates but have you trained yourself? Get educated about what to expect in Marriage. Don't go there blindfolded.


3. PREPARE
 "Passionately prepare." Someone once said to me "I don't need to read I know all about marriage." And I had a good laugh because it's a known fact that "if you don't, plan you have planned to fail. "

Marriage is a lifetime journey that you have to prepare well for.  Read books,  attend seminars. Ask questions. Be determined you want to know what marriage is about. Have a teachable heart and be humble enough to learn at every point in time. Never assume you know it all. I still read about marriage even though I've been married for many years.
