I started it very rough and I can boldly tell you that every mistake is a step towards our dream destination if only we can let go what we can't change.
At last , I am ending the year bigger and better than ever cool.

Okay....but is it the pay that's your problem or the effort the work demands or something different?
I sat down and asked myself series of questions and many other questions I may not put up here.
Those question has to do with the following:


*Pay...
*Retirement.
*My life after retirement.
*I don't want to steal nor falsify things to make money in the office.
*The future of my children,knowing they can't inherit my job from me.

Yesterday,I went out to formalised my company name and started the process of getting my licence before the end of this month. I have got a place to be used as my office.

I have equally told my wife to resign from her banking work so that,we can put heads together and drive our dreams ahead. She agreed!

My brother,my side incomes has grown tremendously and now is the time to quit and focus on my future and dreams of making it very big.

I am working on a lot now,and I know I will do well more than I am doing now.

A lot is on my mind now.

I hope u will understand me. Entrepreneurship is the way forward...and without it,many govt workers would cry before retirement.

Most only earn income to feed and not to save and invest these days.

I see every mistake as a necessary lesson, not a failure. If I didn't make those mistakes, I wouldn't be at this level today. Every error is just a stepping stone taking me higher. The goal is to learn and grow, not to be perfect.

It is never too late for you to marry and moving to a bigger apartment is part of the marriage preparation. Unless the apartment consumes you would have used to get married.

All my mistakes are lessons, however, the most profound lesson I learnt was "your health is your biggest asset".

Many illness will be prevented if you eat enough fruits daily and get good rest.

In all you do, take care of your health!


Meanwhile......
many will not understand this!!
I have been in serious excruciating pain since a week now, at this point I stopped caring about money, food, fights or quarrels, nothing else matters to me now lol, if I see my enemy like this I fit kneel down greet am and pass...
Now I understand the saying "health is wealth"

Sirchiboy:
Earlier this year , I vow to start up a small business.
I set up a charging and pos business together .
I spent close to 1m plus to start the business.
I put the business in the hand of my female Friend to manage and balance me every week..
It was complain upon complain I got from her.
Every month month charger got burnt , this and that.
After 6 months I decided to close down the shop.
And the only thing I could sell was just charging socket and gen to recover.
Guess what I sold them for only 250k.
Omo I wan run mad.
1m plus for put for treasury bills or stocks .
Or carry am go parther with loan company ..

Life no easy
It was my fat cousin that played with my income out of indiscipline and envy.

The good thing is I got wiser. Anyone with problem, just promise to pray for them but would not commit time or resources. Everyone is capable of resolving their problems, God will really come through, not me.

I will never hire anyone with BMI above 27 (except they have given birth).
