One of the speakers, Muyiwa Afolabi said the way you think and judge is based on your mindset which is based on your immediate family's thinking and mentality that was passed to you. As an individual, your potential is who you can become. if you think within/inside the box, you will remain poor. To unlock your potentials, you need the following:

1) You need to know who you are as a person.
2) You need to know where you want to be.
3) Take responsibility for yourself: You need to bring change to your life and that of others.
4) Hardwork: Work hard on your emotions, character and skills so you won't have to chase money and all. Have a builder's mentality and not a hussler's mentality.
5) Find the right association.
6) Never give up.
7) Never get emotional on your mistakes.
Fear God and do the right thing always.
*YOUR POTENTIAL IS WHO YOU BECOME* " He finished and all and sundries gave him a resounding applause for the beautiful speech.

The participants got the chance to meet some dignitaries as they shared their life history them. Some of them lost their fathers at a very tender age. Some grew up in places you would never imagine. Some never got the chance the participants have to learn from other people. All in all, the most important thing is that, they survived by unlocking their potential. Questions were asked and answered as another round of motivational speakers took to the stage.

Participants were treated nicely and were privileged to go home with a certificate of participant and the Eleniyancares package.
