Photo from I'm Possible 2019 Conference I'm very sure that you wouldn’t want your mechanic doing the bare minimum required to make your family car safe to drive. You wouldn’t want a surgeon doing the bare minimum needed to keep your heart pumping. You wouldn’t even want the chef at your favorite restaurant doing the bare minimum to ensure the food you’re eating is safe to consume. Else you wouldn't come back again I bet.  You expect people to go above and beyond in whatever they do and I expect myself to do same too 😁. You want people to go the extra mile for you, in situations when your life depends on it and otherwise. You want to know that people care about their craft and care about you, right? I know I do. Yet today in a conversation with a fellow entrepreneur, I noticed a troubling trend in the workforce and entrepreneurship right now, and it all has to do with two things: Effort and Reward . Too many people believe that you should be lavishly rewarded sim...

I would like to share a conversation between a teacher and a student with you.  Teacher :- what would you like to be in the future? John :- I would like to be a great businessman and a  financier of several NGO's. Teacher: - That's a very good dream. How do you plan to achieve that and what business would you like to venture into? John :- Well, I don't know for now. There is still time. I'm still very young. I really have not started doing anything. ***********beep********** That is the story of many of us. We have big dreams and aspirations but they only come alive when we are asleep. Let me state here that 'the future we are looking for starts today.'  Big question is, How long are we going to procrastinate today about what we really have to do to be prepared for the future?  How long will we wait for what we tag " the right time". The truth is, there is no time called the right time. We create our right times. "I ...

We live in a fast-paced world where no lines and no waiting are common. We can now have anything delivered to our doorstep in a matter of hours and get information with the click of a button. While the convenience factor of the fast-paced world can be appreciated, it can also have a negative effect on us. The no lines no waiting world causes us to underestimate how long change takes when it comes to personal Growth.  As a coach, most times my clients wants to learn a process so fast that they end up not knowing it at all. And that's how it is with our visions. Accomplishments is a process.  Expecting immediate results can be disastrous when it comes to personal achievement. It often leads to unhealthy shortcuts or giving up on a goal way too early.  Your unrealistic expectations may also cause you to draw incorrect conclusions. You may think you're not good enough or that you aren't able to succeed. But the truth might be that you have simply not give...

It's a New Year. New Season. New Opportunities. New Life & Hope to challenge the mountains our heart desires. Yes! In the new season many will have to wait till all the dots are connected before they take a move to pursue that desire burning deep down. I learnt earlier that Preparation is a Proof that you Value Your Future. Many will consider themselves not adequate enough to start now and for that may never start the race at all. But like I've practiced this past year, starting strong is necessary if we are to achieve more results. How do I start strong may be the question bubbling in your mind. Cmon! Let's take a ride and let's talk about these 3 keys that have propelled me to the tangible success I've achieved in the past years. Vision : I can’t emphasize this enough. As a professional, you need to know where you want to be, it doesn’t matter if you don’t know yet how to get there. Where and what you need to be is your VISION. You need to hav...

There are many good reasons to pursue personal growth. For me, It has opened doors that appreciates my visions. It makes us better. It helps us achieve our career goals. Over time too, it creates momentum in our lives to keep running. That in turn encourages us to grow even more. We start to place a greater emphasis on growing than on arriving, which makes it easier to overcome and learn from our failures. I've seen many people focus on getting the success tag-name with growing through process, only to fall back to the ground of being schooled in the art of personal growth.  But all of those things pale in comparison to the most important reason to pursue growth: It increases hope. It teaches us that tomorrow can be better than today and that's why I'm so committed to inspire hope in all corners I can access through my organization, SprintLife . Here’s how: 1. A GROWTH MINDSET IS THE SEED OF HOPE Hope looks forward. When we have hope, we can imagine a bet...

Only you can make the choice to be happy. If you don’t absolutely love your life, you can choose a new path that will give you the success, joy, and fulfillment you crave. So if you’re not as happy or as successful as you want to be, I challenge you to spend some time this week thinking about what REALLY gives you joy. … What do you love and are naturally good at doing? … What kind of work do you find deeply fulfilling? … What would you do if you KNEW you couldn’t fail? … What is your heart telling you to do? … What is your true purpose in life? If the answers don’t come easily to you, then I suggest you take some extra time to meditate, visualize, and reflect on these questions. In time, you will gain some valuable clarity on them. Because when you align your goals with your true purpose and use joy as your GPS system, you WILL achieve the kind of success that fills your life with great happiness, meaning, and abundance. And that is the best ki...
