My advice is to always have a plan and stay focus,do av a mentor too that you look up to,study the life's of rich men, trust me it is not all hardwork,it could be a simple thing as Emir Sanusi kneeling down for his mum when greeting her,trust me there is more to richies that meet the eye.There is a divine presence you can't just wish away.This road you want to embark on isn't that easy,expect a lot of good n bad moments,but take the lessons.Trust me you need the good lord now more than ever,because at some point u might likely break down,but just take the lessons,God is obviously preparing you for greater things and you need your shock absorbers to be strong. My Z.I of the days of yores Mr Yusuf always tell me rich men are hardly moved even when they face great challenges that they are always calm but he never understood why,your journey will reveal that.
thanks..... you spoke like a father giving out his daughters hand in marriage... God bless you.

The next book you need to also read is "The Success Principles: How to Get from Where you are to Where you Want to Be" by Jack Canfield. After that you can go get and devour Napoleon Hill books. As for Napoleon Hill books, I can give them to you for free in eBook format. Just let me know if you need them.
pls I need them contact will be given to you.... just send me a mail.... thanks

I am almost done selling a product i bought for 35k, 25 pcs and making me 180k in return. Next is to buy 50 pcs and rinse again. I was hinted last night that someone wants 76pcs of the said product and if all goes well, I would be 300k richer when the deal is sealed and delivered. When you tell people they think you are talking nonsense.
what's this business..... you want to share?

Jobs/VacanciesEmployed Vs Self-Employed: I'm Giving Up On Job Search, Starting My Own Business by tochi8888(op): 3:20pm On Apr 23, 2017
3 years ago, I graduated from school, studied Computer Science and armed with a good grade, and a promise not to stay unemployed for more than six months, to me this school has just graduated one of it's best students. Oh!  poor school.
It was a sunny Tuesday afternoon, I stood at the gate of the school with my bags in hands and a mixed feelings of fulfilment and worries.

I was fulfilled that at last I was able to make my family proud that after all their efforts and prayers to get me through school-I made it.

The worries came because I know the next line of action was a job search,  going by the crisis of unemployment in the country and thousands of graduates every year in search for anyhow job.... well, I had just bought a high heeled shoe two months before graduation... maybe it's time for it to get to work now and keep my feet from tears.

I searched for job almost immediately(2 weeks after graduation) I was a hotcake, so i had thought.Requirements I got from prospective employers had to do with me having completed my one year compulsory NYSC program.
Oh!! Maybe those people that cried and shouted about been unemployed are either not with a NYSC certificate or not with a good grade(I laughed at them in my mind)

NYSC

My PPA was a school in a very local part of Ogun State, though I am an Igbo person but my fluency in Yoruba and my socializing abilities made it less stressful. Also as the President of my CDS unit it also made me more prepared to secure a job and also help me improve on my team work abilities, with the co-operation of me and some of my friends we were able to execute a small project in the local government spearheaded by me.
A year passed and am through with NYSC yes!!  Let me see who will say there's no job now
My homecoming after NYSC was like I have just won a reality TV show.. maybe BBN... the difference.. NO #25M price money. My friends and well wishers were around to welcome me. I felt like a hero who had just saved a princess from captivity.

One month later I hit the Labour market once again hoping that this time I am getting a good job. I cleaned and ironed my suit, polished my black shoes and a good tie to match. Having prepared for this interview I set out for the company I was in in high spirit.
I was one hour early for the interview, the early morning breeze from the companies 7th floor window was a trap to make me fall asleep or lukewarm probably, well... I did not fall for that.

The interviewer  was busy answering calls as I was busy answering his questions when he asked "Tell me about yourself" I stopped, He signalled for me to continue. Maybe I was not needed in the first place.... at times he would ask a question I had answered earlier. that hurts. So unprofessional of him.
"Thank you we would get back to you"... He said. Well... I have always seen that response to mean "get out of here that post is already filled up"

And after that, I have tried so many banks, companies, consulting firms, small businesses-even if am to be paid as low as #20K. The only offer I got for a #15, 000 was in a fast food restaurant (but at least you are sure of breakfast and lunch-a voice said to me) from then I knew the devil lies within-I need to move closer to God and silence that voice.

Fast forward to about 6 weeks ago I came across a book I once read when I was in school...This book changed my orientation about school then among other things and also working for someone, depending on things to happen so you can move forward instead of happening to things and moving forward.

This book:- Rich Dad,Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki


If you have read this book am sure you'd agree with me that you are far more bigger than unemployment and stagnation in life. You are bigger than recession and global economic meltdown.  You deserve the best because you now know the principles and ideas to be where you want to be in life.
If you will follow the recommendations and steps prescribed in his book.. Kiyoasaki's ideas will spur you to greater heights.

This book serves as a firm reminder that the more you put into your education, especially your financial education, the more financially independent you’ll become.
One of the book’s major thrusts is the fact that too many people get stuck in a rat race. They go to school to find a safe job with lots of benefits and a high ladder to climb, save their money little by little, pay their bills and expenses, and then spend what they have left over, only to repeat the same cycle for the rest of their working lives. But this hamster wheel never allows them to truly get ahead, or really become financially independent.

Robert Kiyosaki argues that there are other ways to become financially independent. Instead of working for money, you can make money work for you. He talks about real estate, the stock market, and high return-on-investment strategies. If you take the time to really learn a little bit about the finance game, it’s much more of a smart strategy than a gamble.
We all know money won’t make you happy, but it can certainly be a facilitator of dreams and opportunities.

So with this in mind I am saying goodbye to job search and unemployment and stagnation and pity and disrespect because joblessness means lack of everything including respect consciously or unconscious people will disrespect you because you are poor and unemployed not because you enjoy your present situation but because the system does not support and encourage the needs of thousands of graduates every year.
Though assistance is needed... thanks

Some more wise words from Rich Dad,Poor Dad


"Unfortunately for many people school is the end, not the beginning.”

“...One dad had a habit of saying, ‘I can’t afford it.’ The other dad forbade those words to be used. He insisted I ask, ‘How can I afford it?’ One is a statement, and the other is a question. One lets you off the hook, and the other forces you to think.”


“A plan is a bridge to your dreams. Your job is to make the plan or bridge real, so that your dreams will become real. If all you do is stand on the side of the bank and dream of the other side, your dreams will forever be just dreams. First make your plans real and then your dreams will come true.”



"In school we learn that mistakes are bad, and we are punished for making them. Yet, if you look at the way humans are designed to learn, we learn by making mistakes. We learn to walk by falling down. If we never fell down, we would never walk."


You’re only poor if you give up. The most important thing is that you did something. Most people only talk and dream of getting rich. You’ve done something.


"Workers work hard enough to not be fired, and owners pay just enough so that workers won't quit."


"They get up every day and go work for money, not taking the time to ask the question, ‘Is there another way?"


There is a difference between being poor and being broke. Broke is temporary. Poor is eternal.


“Take it or leave it.  I’ve got too much work to do to waste my time. If you can’t make up your mind decisively, then you;ll never learn to make money anyway. OPPORTUNITES COME AND GO. Being able to know when to make a quick decisions is an important skill”


“‘Will a job be the best solution to this fear (the fear of not having enough money) over the long run?’ In my opinion, the answer is ‘no’. Especially when you look over a person’s lifetime. A job is really a short-term solution to a long-term problem” 


“Mind your own business. Financial struggle is often directly the result of people working all their life for someone else. Many people will have nothing at the end of their working days”
