“It is in our moments of decisions that our destinies are shaped……” I am sitting down on the floor of my mentor’s sitting room writing this post at about 12.09am at night. I’m actually supposed to be working on some content for the website of the organization I work with but I just watched this movie and couldn’t resist the urge to write about...

I used to read a lot of western books when I was younger. One thing that used to impress me about native American Indians was their equestrian skills. I read about how Indians from before they were teenagers could ride horses bareback. They could mount them at top speed and get off the same way. They could literally put their ears to the ground...

 “Buy the truth and sell it not”   A few days ago I spoke with one of my mentors about some goals I intended to achieve this year. I had the privilege of asking him what books he read that formed his values and business acumen. They said that if you want to hide something from a black man, hide it in a book. They went further to say, if you...

It’s been quite a while I have updated the public on wonderful personal development opportunities that are available for anyone desirous of making the best of their lives and investments. The quote says that the best time to plant a tree was 20yrs ago, but the next best time is NOW. The greatest and best investment we’ll ever make, is investing in our lives....

Nigeria has been labeled the most populous black nation. It has been said that out of every 4 black people you meet around the world, 1 is a Nigerian. A country of about 150 million people with leaders in every relevant industry of the modern world, Nigeria is undoubtedly ranked as being part of the top 10 percent of known countries in Africa. However, can it be...

“Luck = Opportunity + Preparation” Having learnt and developed key managerial skills, Joseph had acquired the ability to take over the whole empire. He just needed the opportunity. Once the opportunity presented itself, he was available. What had he learnt?   He learnt how to dream. He learnt how to serve. He learnt how to manage...

You shall be the head and not the tail; you shall be above always and not beneath. I returned yesterday from a trip to a major city in a south-western state in Nigeria. I went to the city on three platforms. One was to facilitate a training program at an institution of learning within the city; another was to stage a seminar on the New Nigeria Club ideology and...

I ended up writing about Joseph’s management training in the previous post, titled PREPAREDNESS – 3. Joseph picked up this lower level training at Potiphar’s house where he ran a small organization (potiphar’s estate). The human resources at his disposal were slaves (lower cadre personnel). In Potiphar’s house, his integrity was tested with his...

I thought I’d have rounded up this topic in two posts only but it seems the more I write, the more I have to write. In preparedness 1 and 2, I wrote about Joseph’s sojourn in life through some P-Junctions and how I drew inspiration from his experiences in Padan-aram (the plain) and the pit. From the pit, Joseph was sold into slavery to work for a man named...

Rejoice not over me O my enemy for though I am down now, I will yet rise again This is a continuation of the learning and development stages that occurred in the life of Joseph. Previously, I had talked about his redundancy at home which caused his intrinsic talents to be hidden and unused. For more of that please navigate back to Preparedness – 1....
