1. Command Your Fight Or Flight
You’re programmed for survival, in what is called the “fight or flight” response. In both humans and animals, when our brain’s survival center perceives potential danger, the amygdala immediately throws the switch for the Fight/Flight/Freeze response, which immediately triggers other parts of the brain and body to mobilize the body to fight, to flee, or to freeze

You’re facing a threat, and you need to either fight or run. In today’s world, the more common threat is facing something new or stressful.When you hesitate, your body has a small time frame where it determines whether or not there is a threat.When you freeze, your body takes this as a threat and kicks in the response.

There’s a simple solution for this. Count to five.

That’s it.

Count to five, take a deep breath and then stretch or stand and walk around a little and then jump back into the problem. It’s a way of resetting the response in your brain and getting it ready to focus on the task as hand.

What exactly is a Tax Clearance Certificate and why do Companies need it? Perhaps, you are asking. Well, the idea behind this write-up is to show you a practical approach by which you can obtain a Tax Clearance Certificate for your company provided you are transacting business in Nigeria

First, a description of Tax Clearance Certificate

A Tax Clearance Certificate (TCC) as it is popularly called, is a written evidence from the Federal Inland Revenue Service (F.I.R.S) acknowledging that a company’s tax affairs at a particular point in time is up-to-date as at the time of issuance of the Certificate.

It is the responsibility of the F.I.R.S to issue Tax Clearance Certificate after ascertaining that the company’s tax liability (amount owed the Federal Government) has been fully paid and there's nothing outstanding. Where this is established, the TCC should be ready for pick up in four weeks max.

1. Learn.
When was the last time you heard of a black university dropout CEO?White people have one key advantage. Everyone assumes they are smart until they prove otherwise. It’s the exact opposite for black folks. You’re black & stupid until you prove otherwise.

Unfortunately, your MBA/PhD/ACCA/PMP etc is the only reason some people will give you a chance. Dear young, black professional, get that degree and the next one, and the one after. It will earn you some benefit of doubt and open doors that are shut against you.

2. Save.
I know someone who spent $24,054 on his mom’s cataract/glaucoma surgery last year. He could only afford to do that because he saved 40 – 60% of his salary throughout his career. Will your mom go blind if she were in that situation?

I get hundreds of emails daily asking me how to invest XYZ amount of money to "maximize returns while minimizing risk". I will try to provide a 5-step framework that should help most people evaluate their investment models/strategies.
Step 1:

Balance risk and returns.
You can't "maximize returns while minimizing risk". Life doesn't work that way. It's "high risk, high returns" - stock, seed stage inv, crypto, day trading etc

or

"Low risk, low returns" - bond, money market, CDs, treasury bills etc.

Step 2.

Diversify.
Luckily, you don't have to chose "high risk, high returns" or "low risk, low returns". Instead you can.................

What I am about to share with you is a profound exercise I learnt about setting and reaching financial goals which then help unlock other goals. Before then I used to do what everyone did - set new year goals and then work towards reaching them. I'd hit some, miss most, and end of the year, do it over again. The issue was I knew that merely setting new years financial goals wasn't cutting it. There was no system, no way to measure progress and I was looking for something that'd help.

Early in 2013, I stumbled on an exercise that has been the......
