BEING ASSERTIVE IN WHAT YOU DESIRE>>>>> ENTREPRENEUR>

Ordinarily  as an entrepreneur, I thought of the need of thinking beyond the TODAY thing. The life you can also get to
refer to it as the reliance in comfort scenarios of existence or living, where you get to feel the engrossed satisfaction of a start-up goal or achievement in monumental strides. Whenever one tends to be having a thought beyond subsistence, farther becomes a reach in disclosure. Such that an individual get involved in engaging quotients on the platform of building  NETWORKs. Here your person as an entrepreneur resolves naturally in creating streams for consistent inflow of resources and income.

The uniqueness is then required to be built on what your creativity in skill(s) or business entails. Notwithstanding how “Everyone is trying to accomplish something big, and not getting to realize that life in itself is constituted of little things.

Another of its kind is that PASSION, of which almost everyone tends to be conversant with, yet not all gets to understand what its need is. For it is only you that can set those goals and dreams high enough to get you INSPIRED and as well low enough to leave you more ENCOURAGED in achieving SUCCESS. For life as an entrepreneur it takes only those who are ready to risk going too far to find out how far one can possibly go in life, as it is not permitted to say ONLY when it takes EXTRA- no matter how little to make the difference with the ordinary. Most times you don’t just have to do it all just because I did. There should be more to that living motive because you can as well must have noticed that I prosper in what I do too before craving for the engagement.

Then as such, the passion being the secret to happiness as one gets to do what he/she likes or is in love with, then a right form of drive in motivation as you get to connect with the mentors, with potentials, the ideas, so the personalities will sure aid you to achieve success as engage in that which you like and need to do in building your DESIREs and DREAMs . So, just as the motivation gets you on the move, allow the centric of determination to keep you going in a focus of the right direction.  

Align your creative power also into building the design of your dream in a framework as to visualize its outcome, growing into substance of possibility with the clarity of your goals and achievements in sight. The aspect of capital, for the kind of venture that really needs to be taken into consideration for its need, necessitates the setting of strategies and avenues for the sourcing of resources as you keep on with the ride.

For it is only when you actions inspires others to dream more, you are then required also to learn more, do more as to become more of what will be accomplished in the dreams of others, and you can then be taken to be a leader who have predicted a future for which is built of him.

It is amazing how difficult people’s past can be yet they still nurture the resilience to overcome. We never get to know of this until they tell us about it. I once was in a conversation with my class prefect NDUBUISI TANSI FESTUS and he narrated to me the educational ordeal he faced as a growing boy in Kafanchan, southern Kaduna, Nigeria; how they sat on stones under trees to learn English language in Hausa. But he never allowed this experience to deter him from the beautiful life he desired to live; it may interest you to know that he now speaks English so well and fluently.
I really love the Catholic Doctrine on Penance. It gives me a clear Christian dimension on the issue of failure.  It does not condemn the sinner but rather encourages the sinner to get up and turn away from his/her sin. Obviously, there are scriptural instances of this notion, if my little bible is something to go by did CHRIST not forgive the thief on the cross (Lk 23:43).
Upon seeing the title of this article, my classmate Ahar Jacob quickly told me that he sat for SSCE six times before he succeeded with the required credits. He is now a poet and has successfully authored a collection of poems titled “The Last Hope”. 
I don’t even want to go into the stories of millions of business men and women who fail but yet nurse the ambition to still struggle for success of which my MUM is a reference point.
The Greek playwright and Philosopher Sophocles once said, “One must wait until the evening to see how splendid the day has been”. Invariably, there is no need to be hasty in our conclusions to life.
While delivering a paper on ‘writing ability’ in the Spiritual year house, ADAGA BENJAMIN comically passed a message that we all shoved off in laughter. In a bit to encourage the audience on their capability to write he said; “YOU TOO CAN WRITE” implying that everyone could write if they desire to. Now this sounds so true and makes a lot of sense to me despite the humour.
I will like to conclude thus:
Failure should be our healer not our killer, our elevator and not our undertaker, It should be the spring board from which we rise in race onto the track just like the athlete. Failure is a delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end. Failure is something we can conquer if only we realise ourselves and put in more effort. 

SALUTATIONS TO MY MASTERS, VERY REMARKABLE PERSONS WHO HAVE FAILED AND YET DID NOT GIVE UP.
MY FATHER, MR OBUMNEME OKEKE,
MY MOTHER, MRS NWABUIFE OKEKE,
MARTIN LURTHER KING JNR,
MY CLASS REP, NNDUBUISI TANSI FESTUS,
PRESIDENT BARRACK OBAMA,
KOSSY CHIKEME,
AHAR JACOB; THE POET,
AND TO THE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE STRUGGLING OUT THERE TO SUCCEED.
We will never give up UNTIL OUR GOOD IS BETTER AND OUR BETTER BEST.

Nonetheless, I am impressed with a particular positive impact failure makes in me and indeed in all of us. And it is; its assertive determination. Failure stirs up my zeal to get back on my feet and even transcend my comfort zone; it generates an overwhelming courage in me that influences my unflinching quest for success.

While I was in secondary school, I was really comfortable with an unrecognised average result. I settled so much for this output that I could not think of myself as anything better. I so much devalued my academic prowess that I did not even have the time to ponder if I could do better or perhaps even emerge in a scholastic limelight or better still, develop some special skills that I could be known for. But no, I just preferred to be the way I was, crude and unwilling.  I will ever remain thankful to my first day of reflection, the day that informed a significant step to my success, the day of my liberation from intellectual defeat, the day when I sat quietly and challenged myself, the day when I realised my human equality with others, the day when I reminded myself of myself, when I thought that I too can be as good just like every other person. This definitive day makes up my story too.

 I once had a class mate KOSSY, who was from my neighbourhood and fortunately we both gained ingress into the minor seminary at the same time. We grew up together in school

WHAT It TAKEs To TELL The TALEs.(c)°

The  DECISION™¢•

Let  us  say  when  the  dreams  are  streaming  in  your  psyche  with  amassed  steams, its  yield  is  just  on  the  verge  of  manifestation. It  is  just  like  every  other  work  in  the  course  of  Life  and  its  styles, you  cannot  afford  to  overthrow  the  moment  of  decision making  as  that  is  taken  to be  one  of the  heights  of  putting  choices  into  existing  or  pro-existing  phase  of  yet  to  manifest  activities, already  getting  serious,  and  as  such  one  just  need  to  have  or  try  to  build  that  clear  view  of  choices  on what  is  needed  and  what  is  and  is  to be  expected.

It's   said   to  be   the   Armour.

This is all how it got its head start..... And behold here I dwell with the row, as an instance with my postings trying to make that sense which some people have even taken to be common.

But  yet, hey, I don't know, not to talk of telling what your willful thought could be if I'd tell you it ain't that common to me, as mostly said nor depicted.
It just takes a blink not even that while for silly and crazy expressions with timely crafts to emanate, so at that, you just get to have it in mind that you're also at one time just presenting your very ideas to critiques. Even with those you don't take as qualified to do such. Yet, that's just an opportunity to learn of what some minds do expect and as such you then get to device great tact and strategies in building what is necessary and not floating ideas.
#I_Just_Hope_Mine_Is_Not_That_Afloat  but  SINKing  into  that place  of  necessity  in  you  to give  you  ¢°'WHAT  IT  TAKEs'*  in  building  and  bringing  those  roaring  ideas  in You  to. REALITY. ¶¢ Just know I have been  there, and  this  is  how  most  story  started, as  mine evolves.

I remember growing up, I remember having in various occasions interact with my DAD, and he constantly expressed his outlook to life, and at these times he could not help but tell me how he lost all he had acquired as a young merchant during the civil war in Chad. How he sailed back to Nigeria with my Mum whom he had just married about a month with no property to show for all his labours, “am sure Christ would be happy with my Dad if he were to be his apostle because he carried no haversack”. I was immersed in pity for him, I thought of how difficult life was for them as young couple. I remember being startled still of his present financial status, which does not reflect his earlier failed story, and then he told me how he started gradually all over in the village to make ends meet. He was skilled in crafting and so he produced bags, baskets, and mats made of raffia and sold them on market days. He also went into farming to earn money. In him now, I do not see a man who went through difficult times to earn a living. Now the conventional wisdom is, people with such depressing past are always unsuccessful, even if they are not it is seldom and difficult, what NGOZI ADICHIE will call

 I like failure, and it informs my positive opinion about it.My recent understanding of it has made many persons ask, what do you mean by the good thing about failure? I remember my sister EBERE once made a comment, “How can failure connote anything good, it is by its very nature negative and so no one would like to identify with it”. Now, the mental shift of my perception about failure has triggered a lot of thoughts and of course received series of patronising criticism of which I am quite willing to contend. I have really wondered about this myself and it makes me laugh anytime I think of it. Obviously this sounds bizarre but not after I have thought of it over and over again so that anyone who thinks otherwise sounds bizarre instead. Don’t mind my intonation; this is not an encouragement for FAILURE but rather a discouragement TO BE FAILED
Before I proceed, I will like to illustrate what seems to be failure. There is an Idoma word “GWONU” which commonly translates to FALL. It also reminds me of the Igbo connotation of the same fall which is “ODIDA”.
