It was a good year thanks to Almighty. made too many mistakes but it's all good provided I put the lessons to use. between what sustains and what brings unto us pain is s line thinner than we can ever imagine. season greetings

A mistake becomes one when we don't learn from it. Making mistakes mean we attempted something in the first place. The pathway to success is paved with momentary failures.

Compliments of the season.

Thanks for commenting.

If next year must be better for you, then you need to make your PLANS and stick to them. That's all.

It's our determination, NOT the system, that will see us through come 2016. Against all hope, we must have hope in our plans and targets. Life becomes meaningless without hope.

Many thanks for the comment. Business ideas surround every location. Identify your passion and turn it into profit OR make friends with business gurus.

I have learnt a lot and would still want to learn..

1..always have a plan B or C or even D..

Learning from my country's mistake I am more determined as a man not to be affixed with a particular source of income..There must be alternatives to raking income so as to swim through hard times when it comes hitting hard..next year would be more of a year of diversification for me,a year of learning a hands on skill apart from my professional job and then becoming an entrepreneur through that..

2..never let anyone stop you from achieving your goals.

Especially when those goals are to make you a better person in all areas of life..I was once stuck in the middle of leaving a low paying job so to speak and running my msc..its a drilling company to be precise..being enlisted for gaining experience as a directional driller on any of the ongoing contracts for the company entailed having an oga at the top to facilitate the process,but I didn't have any..so I spent over 9 months in the office reading drilling books without any rig experience forthcoming and was to spend more..being the vibrant bobo that I am I had to take drastic steps to ensure my career plans are not thwarted..I opted to build myself by running my msc rather than spend my time warming the chairs in the office and I am again employed after that exercise(though the salary not that much)..

I intend to take more steps to making sure my set down goals are achieved each subsequent year..


deapreye I have learnt a lot from you..my elder brother... grin

Invaluable lessons......Compliments first. LOL!

The point 1 is is a killer. Nigeria is definitely paying and will continue to pay for its decades of waste and over dependence on a SINGLE product so volatile like crude oil. We will pay more that lack of vision and Plan B/C.

The only miracle Joseph performed in Egypt was to save for the days of hunger while the days of plenty lasted. That's common sense.

Yes. We shouldn't allow others to dissuade us from achieving our dreams. Whenever you're determined or do something, throw all your energies behind it. Success is sure.

It's being a friendly and happy year for the both of us. So happy to meet a real brother here.

Yes oooo......It will be one of most amazing years. The mistakes of this year have become very vital lessons; I'm having very few targets next year unlike previous ones. I'm just willing and ready to hit the ground running.

We are the architect of our own destiny; the captain of our vehicle. God always blesses the diligent.

The feeling of learning is very mutual; we learn from each other. I'll holler at your mail......

I learnt a lot, and the summary is in personal development and building networks/relationships.

1) Law Of Making A Contribution:

You can never find a higher sense of worth until the things you do start making a difference in people's lives.

Going to bed is sweeter when you are aware that someone somewhere is living the good life because of your contribution.

Life becomes very interesting when you know you're meeting a need and you're the reason behind a person's smile.

As a personal mantra in 2015, this was it: MY LIFE HAS TO HELP OTHER PEOPLE SHAPE UP THEIR LIVES AS WELL.

2) Law Of Private Victories:

Private victories precede public victories. I was very committed to personal development like never before. I make sure it works for me first. I used myself as a guinea pig of many experiments, and guess what, I was better for it.

3) Battered, Broken, But Still Standing.

Law Of Perseverance. I went through a lot of challenges this year, but I was upheld; and I wouldn't be stopped.

It is a lesson I would love to share on a good day to our youths. Instead of sitting down and whining about the government in every discussion, we must take it upon ourselves to create the future we deserve. I embraced HARD WORK, SMART WORK, and NETWORK. I did freelancing in speaking and writing. As a doctor, I covered for a lot of private hospitals in town, sometimes going for a week without sleeping on my bed at home. I ordered for and sold wristwatches from Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, etc. I delivered well sown shirts from Aba to my colleagues at gains of N1500 or more per shirt. I'm delving into poultry business next year.

Everyone should smell the coffee and wake up.

Seeing a like mind is the best thing that can ever happen to a successful man's environmental influence...

The earlier people realize they hold the key to their own very success or failure, the better for them to take risks and create chances for themselves; than wait for one imaginary claim of 'luck'.

Good things do not come to those who wait...


Quote and write for me your phone number. We should have a talk.

My boss, I've studied my life, it's successes/failures long enough to have known that I'm responsible for EVERYTHING that has happened to me. I'm 100% responsible for my life.

And ever since I accepted this philosophy, the ship has taken a rather interesting and rich turn; life has all of a sudden become very interesting; I can hardly wait for the next day.

My boss,I couldn't afford living MY LIFE to chance. No way. I'll inbox you my contact later sir.
