Don't Touch It

  Hello Friend , Don't Touch It  Written By John Paul  πŸŽ―πŸ“ΊπŸŽ΄πŸŽ« About two months ago, I got an email from one of my clients. It had a PDF attachment. He was about to sign a deal with a potential investor who had agreed to invest $50,000 in his leather products business. After months of searching, we was very excited that the money he had been looking for was finally within his reach. This email was to get my advice on the content of the attached contract before he signs it. The investor's deadline was just about 24 hours away. He badly needed the money. I didn't have to read beyond the 2nd page of the contract before I replied his email. My reply was very short: "Don't touch it." A lot of entrepreneurs take the wrong money. As I often say, "All money is not the same." If my client had signed that deal, he would have paid heavily for it. The terms of the deal were too restrictive, and they gave too much power to the investor. In essence, if my client

  Hi Friends,  From Leon, lifehack Have you heard of a  "What Worries the World"  list?  πŸ•ΉπŸπŸš‚πŸšƒ It's a study conducted in 28 countries around the world, surveying people about their worries and concerns.  And guess what are the four major worries people globally have? Financial/ Political corruption Poverty/Social Inequality Unemployment Crime and violence Pretty interesting right?  Do any of your current worries fall into those categories? What is worrying you most at the moment?  If you have some time, I'd like you to  make a list of 5 immediate actions you can take to change and overcome those worries.  I'm asking you to do this because the dangers of worrying is that it eats into you if you don't do anything about it! It's always far worst than reality and so in order to be in control of your situation and not let worries consume your ability to function,  we have to think about what we can do instead of what we can't do. A couple of years ago, I

  What Doesn't Kill You Can Make You Stronger 🀹πŸ₯…πŸ€Ύ  Written By Mark Manson ⛳ To  another Mindf*ck Monday, the only weekly newsletter that unironically wears a mullet. Each week, I send you three potentially life-changing ideas to help you be a slightly less awful human being. This week we’re talking about: 1) post-traumatic growth, 2) living in the age of entitlement, and 3) the world really has become smaller.  1. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger -  A few weeks ago, I wrote  a newsletter  discussing the expanding definitions of words such as “trauma,” “violence,” and “harm” and how these expansions of definition in our culture, at a certain point, begin to have adverse effects.  Several readers were skeptical of this claim. They argued that trauma is always bad and that we should combat it regardless of how it arises. So I’d like to spend some time today discussing why this may not be totally true. As with most things in life (and especially in psychology), trauma is com

Idiots, Tribesmen or Citizens !

  *Let's all be citizens*  Written By An Unknown Author  ⛽πŸ’Ž Idiots, Tribesmen or Citizens ! 🚦πŸš₯πŸš€πŸš€ 1. Unless you understand your role in society, you can never make any meaningful contribution. According to the Greeks there are three types of people on earth, the idiots, the tribesmen and the citizens.   Studies show only 10% of Nigerians are citizens. The remaining 90% are either tribesmen or idiots.  2. When the Greeks used the word idiots, they did not use it as a curse word. Idiots are people who just don’t care. If they write exams they will cheat, if they are in government they will steal, an idiot does not care at all, if he eats banana he throws the peels anywhere instead of putting it in trash, according to the Greeks, some societies have more idiots than tribesmen and citizens.  3. The next set of people are tribesmen, these are people that look at everything from the point of view of the tribe. These are people that believe in you only if you are part of the tribe. It

This Is Shocking. But It Is True

  This Is Shocking. But It Is True  Written By John Paul  Hi Friends , πŸ€ΌπŸ€ΈπŸ‡πŸŽπŸ₯‹ Yes, it's shocking. But it is true. Research now shows that up to 50 percent of entrepreneurs are likely to have at least one mental health breakdown in their lifetime. That's according to Michael Freeman, a psychiatrist and psychologist at USC. Separate results by another researcher and psychotherapist, Dr. Paul Hokemeyer, confirms this. But he puts the number at 80 percent. All these findings confirm the high mental and psychological pressures of entrepreneurship. This is a VERY serious issue. It is also an issue many people are not comfortable talking about. But let's not deceive ourselves. This is a very serious issue. Starting a business is hard. And running a business and keeping it alive is even harder. And sometimes, it feels like 24 hours is not enough time in the day to do all the work that needs to be done. Take control of your time. One secret to handling stress is to take control

Investment + Dividend

Brain Tracy in One of his book titled *Getting rich Your Own way* will say, a solidified investments takes like 5 years before you could start enjoying dividend.  While Mark Zuckerberg launch his facebook in the year 2005 and set his IPO.  A man in USA invested with little some of dollars and in 2015 he got his shares  worth billions of naira .  And now,  if we say we should go by so sharp,    sharp that way,  Good.,  sure  but it not professional
