There is a story told, about either the founder of Toyota or Honda (I cannot remember which), but this man ran a small business making bicycles in the early 20th century. One day, he saw for the first time, an American car being driven by a wealthy businessman. Rushing back to his little bicycle workshop, he gathered his small workforce and declared:
"Before the end of this new century, we shall be one of the largest car manufacturers in the world." And of course by the end of the twentieth century, the Japanese car companies dominated the global car industry; Toyota for instance was the largest in the world.

I have told you this story to show you an interesting leadership principle: the need to take a long term view in whatever you are trying to build. It will teach you how to practice one of the key leadership qualities of true success: humility and by it modesty. As an entrepreneur, whether social or business, try always to take a long term view. Sometimes success comes very quickly, as you start your venture. If its business, you might find yourself making a lot of money, just after a few months or even years of starting. This might encourage you to start spending money on your own needs, or trying to show people around you how well you are doing.... This is not wise.

Personally, I have always taken a long term view whenever I start something. I have shown you in previous posts, how to take a methodical well calculated approach; how to develop a business plan; the need to find good people to work with you. The need to put everything back into the enterprise. When you have a long term view, you will realise that its a long journey you have started. Don't take money out of the business; don't expand recklessly; don't try and show off with a big house, car and expensive tastes...always go steady!

More telecommunication companies started finding their way into the Nigerian market, competition became stiff, call rates started droping, cost of texting also reduced, GSM operators decided to start selling branded phones at a cheaper rate, more people could now afford a cell phone. Phone boot operation was gradually becoming not-so-profitable! More and more people left the business of phone boot operation. I can't remember seeing anyone sitting on a phone boot offering calls at a cheap rate for the past one year! What they do now is recharge card selling, which is fast becoming extinct. More and more people no longer buy recharge cards, they simply use the atm. Banks has now made it easier to recharge your phones without going to the atm, you simply dial a few codes and viola!!! your phone is recharged.

For our mechanics, cars are becoming more digital these days! We are gradually seeing alot of hybrid cars on our roads, the kind of cars that if you dare use your old knowledge of repairing or replacing a shaft, you will end up damaging the spedometer of the car, plus other sensitive devices. A friend of mine once took his car to the mechanic for a minor fault. At the end of the day, the mechanic ended up damaging other major components and the intriguing part of it is that the mechanic did not even know he damaged other parts let alone how to repair them. The car spedometer stoped working, the digital display stopped functioning as well. It was terrible
