WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE?

By -
What comes to mind when you see this question, as it is far from being rhetorical? Strangely enough, it might interest you to know that not everyone wants to be a millionaire. But for some it’s a do or die affair, ‘Get Rich or Die Trying’.
Well, I’m a Zillionaire (…lol..billionaire or trillionaire is limiting, that’s what I believe for me ) & its mainly for common good. However, let’s leave the spiritual gymnastics of claiming the Best or mere aspirations and optimism and attempt to address the matter, “Who Wants to be Millionaire?”. Assuming you’re answering in the affirmative, how, when and why do want to be a millionaire?

WHY? ; The ‘Why’ is such an important element, that it goes a long way show your desperation; determine the extent one will go in answering the how. It also informs the goal setting approach ,which is the reality of a future trapped down on the paper with specific steps to achieve it within a time bound.

WHEN; Your goals must have a deadline ,so that you know when to celebrate your success. When you are working on a deadline, your sense of urgency increases and achievement will come much quicker.
HOW; I have heard & indeed read of varying theories of achieving the How. E.g. SMART (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant & Time bound) goal setting. However, the high point of being a success, being a Millionaire can only be achieved when we start from the Basics…Yeah, you guessed Right!...GOAL SETTING

I’ll give us some 10 quick rules for Goal Setting (as studied under a Fate Foundation lecture recently).
1. Work on something you really want, not just something that sounds good.
2. Develop A balanced Goal { Family and Home,Financial and Career, Spiritual and Ethical, Physical and Health, Social and Cultural, Mental and Educational}
3. A goal must not contradict any of your other goals.
4. Always write your goal in the positive instead of the negative. {e.g. I will be Rich not I won’t be Poor}
5. Write out your goals in complete detail.
6. Make sure your goal is Challenging.
7. Have a measurable Goal (intermediate milestones)
8. Make an Action Plan
9. Stick With It!
10. After You Have Achieved A Goal, Celebrate It and Reward Yourself!!!

It's very important that you ‘self-talk’ your Goal. Positive confession is a must! TAKE ACTION (don’t be afraid to fail but be flexible in your approach). Be on the look out for relationship and knowledge that can move you closer to your goal daily.

If you follow this process everyday you will be on your way to achieving unlimited success in every aspect of your life and I just might be sending this email to next Millionaire.
Feel free to share your opinion and ideas with me. We change we truly seek must begin with us.
Stay connected.

Social Media: Good or Bad???

SOCIAL MEDIA:  Good or Bad? I escorted a friend to meet a date but at some point i was upset with him. He claimed he couldn't wait to meet her and yet while we were there (even when i left them alone) , he was spending more time pressing his phone and checking social media.  With the way we use social media today, one can’t help wondering how humans communicated before it or what we will do without it. If you agree with this thought especially the latter, then you’re probably already addicted to social media. With the development of technology over the years came the advent information technology, the internet and web 2.0 which brought about innovations in human interactions and communications like the new media and social networking (Creeber & Martin, 2009) . Now all aspects of human endeavour can be significantly influenced by social media such as politics, business, and religion. Some argue that social media has more negative influence than positive, however, it’s wor

THE BANKING HALL

...ibadan, Nigeria, 14.20hrs. The sun was shining with a vengeance that could only mean it had a misunderstanding with the clouds or some galaxial sky-mate   that fateful Friday afternoon. I managed to catch a bike eventually, only to get stuck in traffic moments later. Why? The Muslims were praying, their space wasn’t enough and then they blocked the entire market road with their mats. I was livid. Whatever happened to fundamental human rights! Blocking an entire ever-busy thoroughfare in the 21 st Century?...hmmm!        #i reserved my comments, for safety reasons# Minutes later, I was grateful to feel the cool breeze as i entered my bank with one mission, collect my ATM card & escape. The queue was discouraging but envisaged. It got to my turn (after ages on my feet) only to be told by the Customer Service Personnel (most comported i’ve ever met) that my card was being ‘Pouched’ from Lagos ...#my eyes grew bigger# ...after a cash deduction & application for its transfer

mY SuIcIdE nOtE The thoughts had been recurrent through the week. I imagined myself leaving a final note behind, but would I write? Other thoughts crept in… I thought to myself, “is it Normal? Is it Christian? Who can I tell of these strange thoughts? Who would understand that I can’t even a place a finger on what is really gone wrong? Is it my job, family, friends, fiends, my faith, my fate, my fears….what exactly? ” Suicide as described by kenea (a lawyer friend), is cowardice; perhaps he was right! {Thank God he  didn’t possessX-men (mutants) skills of mind reading, else I would have been found out} Some folk may think my life is a fairy tale, but then my nightmares were unending. One of my friends rightly analyzed me as 'managing perception'. If you knew me, have met me, or seen my boisterous self, bewilderment of my recent thoughts will panic you. But why would a seeming ‘perfect’ me be depressed I ask? Well, Google was a little help…depression & suicide t
