This is a clear case of over-speeding! Just because its a highway doesn't imply that you must be on top speed! When your speed is controlled,its easier to make better decisions! |

"I Will Remember You" (originally by Sarah McLachlan) I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. I'm so tired I can't sleep Standing on the edge of something Much to deep. It's funny how we feel so much And cannot say a word We're screaming inside But we can't be heard I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. So afraid to love you More afraid to loose Clinging to past That doesn't let me choose. Well, once there was a darkness A deep and endless night You gave me everything You gave me light. I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. Remember all The good times that we had Let them slip away from us And things got bad. Clearly I first saw you Smiling in the sun I want to feel your warmth I want to be the one. I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories. Weep not for the memories. The memories... Sleep well Kenny Rogers! |

OkpaNsukkaisBae:Seems you didn't read the post properly! Before now,there were strong rumours gathering that the EPL would be declared null and void! Most rumours were hinged on the fact that the euro 2020 will pose a stumbling block to the conclusion of many suspended leagues! But after Uefa made a move that postponed the tournament till next year, this ensured that EPL would have no issues concluding the league due to dat postponement! In other words,Liverpool fans actually have a lot to celebrate because the EPL has declared that it will ensure the conclusion of this season's league! 1 Like |

| Nairaland General › Re: Mind Your Principle by openmine(op): 6:40pm On Mar 18, 2020 |
My dear business man, stop suspending logical business principles on the account of well packaged sentimental thesis. Becoming successful in business is not about a product or service you’re passionate about, even if you’re excellent at it, it’s about the number of people that want what you want to sell. To become rich in business, don’t sell what you love, you’re not the customer, you’re not the one buying from yourself, sell what a lot of people want, make it excellent, affordable and available in a way competitors cant, that is the greatest secret to business success. Success habits and behavioral principles matter, but that’s when you’ve already identified a huge market in size. It’s not about what you want to sell, it’s always about what enough people want to buy. Even if it’s a luxury brand or a high value product, you still need enough buyers. That simple |
| Nairaland General › Re: Mind Your Principle by openmine(op): 6:39pm On Mar 18, 2020 |
This has nothing to do with passion, knowledge, hard work, persistence, prayers, and all those habits. If you practice these habits religiously and don’t have a sizable market for what you want to sell, you will never become a billionaire. A plan, a strategy, passion, hard work, persistence, connection and prayers are all needed, but to conquer a huge and ready market size. If there are no gaps or opportunities for your product in the market, habits won’t deliver anything. If the market is also not ripe for what you have to sell, principles won’t deliver anything. Being successful in business is all about market opportunities. If there are no opportunities in the market there is nothing you can do. If the opportunities are slim your revenue will be slim and you will also be frequently broke and for a long time, remain small. |
| Nairaland General › Re: Mind Your Principle by openmine(op): 6:39pm On Mar 18, 2020 |
Dear friend, all the habits the important speaker shared will never make anyone a billionaire either practiced individually or collectively if the number one rule for becoming a billionaire is violated. The number one key to becoming a billionaire is not in habits or behavioral patterns, it’s in the market size. Simple. Becoming a billionaire is simply about the number of people willing and ready to exchange their hard earned cash for your product or service. That simple. So the number one law of becoming a billionaire is to sell a product that will have a great number of buyers and users, frequent buyers and users or high margin products with few but regular buyers. This has to do with the type of product, availability and affordability. If a million people for example can pay 1000 naira for your product because they need it and can afford it, you’re already a billionaire. In Nigeria, a country of almost 180 million people, if just 1 million people buy your product in one year, your revenue is 1billion naira. |

You see, many of us think there is a mystery to becoming rich and I’ve seen many books make mysterious, the so called lifestyle of self-made billionaires. They’ll perhaps tell you about certain behaviors and habits of the rich and tell you if you do the same, you will have their kind of results. They tell you about when to sleep and wake up for example, they tell you to meditate for some hours every day, eat certain kinds of food, follow a certain routine and all that, let me tell you this morning, all those things don’t make up the complete truth about becoming a billionaire. That’s why many people practice these behaviors and habits and still remain broke because these habits outside the common sense of business principles will always fail. |

This eloquent and good looking speaker spoke so well, gave many examples, told interesting stories and touching stories about endurance, sacrifice and passion and the crowd was so moved and impressed by his presentation. Believe me, he is a fantastic speaker, his packaging, and delivery were on point and of course his profile was a sort of evidence he knew what he was talking about. But I assure you ladies and gentlemen, any and the combination of all the qualities and attributes mentioned can never make anyone a billionaire. |
| Nairaland General › Re: Mind Your Principle by openmine(op): 6:20pm On Mar 18, 2020 |
He told them many things but emphasized what he believed the young people needed for them to become multi-billionaires. He told them they needed a plan. Yes of course they do, but believe me a plan is not enough to make you a billionaire. He said they needed a strategy, yes, it’s also important but a strategy, no matter how fantastic is not enough to you a billionaire. He said they needed knowledge, of course knowledge is critical and important, yet, it is not enough to make anyone a billionaire. He said they needed the right connections and people, yes, you need great minds around you, but all the great minds in this world is not enough to make you a billionaire. He said they needed passion, yes, passion is key, but unfortunately, it’s not the key to becoming a billionaire. He told them they needed to be hardworking and persistent, yes, they need these but I tell you, it is not sufficient to make them billionaires. He told them prayer was also important, yes I agree you need to pray but believe me, prayers don’t make people billionaires. |

He had material proof and financial evidence hence, everything he said was an easy sale, the young people embraced the message without much thought and by the time he was done, I was very uneasy as I believe what he told them was not the complete truth, yet they believed because he looked successful and it all sounded like the truth. |
| Nairaland General › Re: Mind Your Principle by openmine(op): 6:19pm On Mar 18, 2020 |
Other speakers and the host welcomed him with respect and admiration as he took his seat ready to speak to motivate, inspire and encourage over a thousand young people at the conference. He walked up the podium with much confidence, perhaps a bit cocky when it was his turn to speak. His intimidating profile was read almost like a citation from a grass to grace bestseller, and his fame and net worth made him appealing to the youthful audience – eager to know the secret of becoming a billionaire. It was a youth conference about financial success, and this famous and rich individual was the special guest and key speaker at the event. I sat in my corner observing events unfold and concluded we needed to organize more of these kind of conferences for our youth, it should not just be about entertainment shows. So this rich and well packaged gentleman began to share his principles and secret to becoming a billionaire with these young people and many of them eagerly scribbled down the points on their writing materials. |

He looked pretty dapper as he stepped out in style out of his chauffer driven Land cruiser SUV. He stepped on the red carpet, adjusted his suit and walked graciously up a couple of steps through the hallway into the auditorium on the red carpet well laid to welcome him as the guest speaker at this youth conference. All the young people looked at him with admiration on their faces and the protocol team and ushers blushed as he nodded in acknowledgement of their courtesy and greetings as they led him to the special seat prepared for him at the front row. |

| European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Euro 2020 Postponed Until Next Summer by openmine(op): 2:59pm On Mar 17, 2020 |
Euro 2020 has been postponed by one year until 2021 because of the coronavirus pandemic, say multiple European football associations. Uefa, European football's governing body, has been holding an emergency video conference involving major stakeholders on Tuesday. The associations say it was decided the tournament will now take place from 11 June to 11 July next year. BBC Sport understands the decision will be signed off by Uefa later on Tuesday. The tournament was due to take place from 12 June-12 July this year at 12 venues across Europe. The postponement provides a chance for European leagues that have been suspended to now be completed. Uefa's Nations League and the European Under-21 Championships are also scheduled to take place next summer. The 2021 Uefa Women's European Championship is set to take place in England and begins on 7 July, four days before the proposed men's final. The Norwegian FA, whose side are yet to qualify for the tournament, were first to announce the news, followed by the French and other FAs. Elsewhere, the South American Football Confederation (Conmebol) says this year's Copa America, due to take place from 12 June to 12 July, has been postponed until 2021. Why has this happened? Many of Europe's domestic leagues - as well as the Champions League and Europa League - have been suspended following an increasing number of coronavirus cases around the continent. Players and coaches have also been affected by the virus or been told to go into self-isolation, meaning leagues have had to shut down. A mini-tournament to decide the Champions League and Europa League is expected to be one option put forward at Tuesday's meeting to ease fixture congestion caused by the coronavirus crisis. How Europe's top leagues have reacted: Premier League: All elite football in Britain cancelled until 4 April at the earliest subject to "conditions at the time". La Liga: Spain's top flight suspended until 4 April at the earliest when it will "revaluate" the situation. Serie A: Italy has the highest number of cases in Europe and the country is in lockdown. Bundesliga: Suspended until at least 2 April in Germany. Ligue 1: Games initially played behind closed doors in France but now suspended "until further notice". What other limitations are there? While the big domestic leagues have problems over television contracts to solve if games do not take place, most countries rely on the payments from Uefa that come out of major international tournaments to allow their own leagues to function properly. These would be at risk from any movement of the European Championship and are likely to form part of any agreement. An estimated 400 staff are working for Uefa on the Euros. It is unknown what will happen to them if the tournament does not take place for another 12 months. |

| European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Coronavirus:cup Competitions Should Give Way To Finish League Season - Jermaine by openmine(op): 9:46am On Mar 15, 2020 |
Former England midfielder Jermaine Jenas says cup competitions should be axed after elite football in Britain was postponed because of coronavirus. All professional matches have been suspended until at least 3 April. Uefa is set to discuss Euro 2020 on Tuesday, before Premier League clubs meet for a second time on Thursday, and Jenas says the authorities should concentrate on "finishing the leagues". "We have to think smaller right now," Jenas told the Football Daily Podcast. "Get rid of this season's cup competitions and finish the league when we can, even if it means moving the Euros to 2021." The EFL is due to resume on 3 April, while the Premier League says play will start on 4 April, subject to "conditions at the time". But BBC sports editor Dan Roan says resuming on that date is privately deemed "almost impossible". Uefa is to hold a video conference on Tuesday to decide whether to call off this summer's European Championship finals, which are due to start on 12 June, while Premier League clubs will use Uefa's decision to shape their revised plans for the English top flight on Thursday. "I do think the domestic leagues are the most important," Jenas added. "It's impossible to please everybody, and only 50% of the Premier League clubs would be happy if the league was to finish right now. Liverpool would miss out on the title and Sheffield United and Wolves would not be able to qualify for the Champions League. "Promotion from the Championship and relegation from the Premier League is huge financially, so that is why I say the cup competitions might have to take the hit." On Football Focus, former Everton midfielder Tim Cahill agreed with Jenas. "Delaying the season and forgetting about all cup competitions and internationals would be the most logical situation," he said. "Just concentrate on the league." https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/51887560 |

hilarious! we are the reason why they treat us this way! How you treat those that are close to you is the same way outsiders will behave towards them! How do we expect these foreigners to treat us any different from the way we relate to one another! Our division has ensured that foreigners treat nigerians badly! What about nigerians who work for these foreigners? Have you seen the way indians treat nigerians at their own company as if they are slaves? Have the FG taken time to find out how nigerians are being treated in companies owned by these foreigners? As long as there is division within our tribes coupled with the nonchalant attitude of our leaders,more foreigner investors just like this Chinese company will keep treating us like trash in our own country! 4 Likes |
