Quit entrepreneurship, it’s only mythical?

"Quit entrepreneurship, it’s only mythical?"

Ed note: "As the allure of entrepreneurship grows in the zeitgeist of global culture, so too do the myths surrounding it. Entrepreneurs are setting their course for some uncharted territories, and there are always tall tales that can go along with the unknown" ~Winnie.

So I had an hectic day -a pretty long one at that- and finding my way back home took longer than usual -all thanks to the 'ever-busy' Lagos road.

It’s the weekend already, and the thought of that spells rest and a break from the long week for most, but not me. Not even to say that it’s the weekend leading to Christmas.

It’s however unfortunate that I’d be working from home in order to exhaust most of the paperwork I’ve got swarming across my desk.

Last time, I shared on the myths surrounding entrepreneurship -what you perceive in comparison to what is true, so I felt it was pertinent to do a sequel.

For it is no news that entrepreneurs are setting their course for some uncharted territories, and there are always tall tales that can go along with the unknown.

Some days ago, I had my friend share his opinion on the topic, and this was what he had to say:

"A lot of people make it appear as though you just wake up, decide to be an entrepreneur and the next day you build an empire stacked with all the good things of life.

I could have been lured into believing the same, however, it sure didn't come-out that easy for me.

At some point, I felt jaded by the reality that I wasn’t growing as fast as I wanted to and that my growth wasn’t correlation with those of my colleagues who took up the white-collar jobs.
People seldom see the quality of hardwork and the measure of sacrifice you embrace in order for things to be productive, all they are interested in are the results.
~Tunde Taiwo (Creative Director E-Nut stitches).

It is no understatement that being an entrepreneur isn’t a one day’s task, it’s the aggregation of hours turned days., days maturing into weeks., weeks evolving into months, and months spanning into years of hardwork and consistency.

Like the common saying, entrepreneurship is more than meets the eyes.

Love Happens



It's nice to finally put a face to the name, LOVE. However, what I can't understand is how you could spend 'forever' chasing after your own tale. 

How you look in every direction, including the wrong places, yet it appears as though you aren't looking at all.

More often than not, I can only but wonder why most of us are limited by certain metrics (derived by some god knows who), when all that we have ever wanted, longed, and hoped for is right before us -every single time.

Sometimes, some of us are lucky to finally be united with that one person or dream -after a long wild goose chase- others aren't and might have to settle with what's left *chuckles*

Nevertheless, one thing is true, when true love finally catches up, you'd be everything and wowed.

So, why not let loose, forget about the unrest, and allow love play itself out. Afterall, you cannot know the script better than the writer himself.

Find love, Find happiness.

For you can only love others as much as you love yourself.

•••

What better way to kick start the new month than giving love. 

Happy new month people.

Love

~Jimmy Michaels

Consider this a push

*Consider This A Push*
______________________________________

I like 'thinkers' -they make me think- and I applaud their ability to plot. However, i celebrate doers even much more better, as they inspire me to 'act'.
It is said that plodders and not plotters make things happen. 

To the Bible scholars, God would neither say 'well-planned', 'well-thought', 'well-said, nor would He say 'well-strategize' good-and-faithful servant. Instead, the only commendation remains, 'well-done' good and faithful servant (Matthew 25:23). That's to say, God recognises 'workdone'.

While setting goals and generating strategies is important, implementing such is of greater importance -more reason people readily celebrate the 'forefronters' and not the 'rareguards'.
 
Although we've all suffered from the pain of defeat and the agony of setbacks, the hardest part of finishing yet remains to start.
Consider going after your dream just as riding a bicycle, you've got to get a little momentum to really get going. At every obstacle encountered, you've got to regenerate the needed momentum to keep going until you finally arrive at the finish line.
Just like the bicycle, life is no different, you've got to find your push and "just do it" (Nike).

Consider this as one of those *push* necessary to assist in your generating as much momentum as needed to getting to your finish point.

As I close, find time to answer the following questions genuinely:

1. What do i need to start?
2. What am i waiting for? and
3. Where am i standing on the path to executing my God given idea?

Dreams (1)

Ed. Note
Dreams will only remain in the confines of the mind except if made a reality.

I guess the saddest loss for any man would be for his dreams to never take off������.
For just as planes were built to live in the skies, so was man born to live out his dreams. So much that you can't possibly get it wrong with the right dream in the right direction������

On your way to the top, you're probably gonna fall������ a couple of times or more, but the reality remains, no one will be counting except you1⃣2⃣3⃣.

Indeed, i guess i can say that you are the greatest enemy of yourself������, and until you win over yourself, there would be less that you can accomplish.

Therefore, there's a need for you to liberate your mind from what it had been wired around - in which case failure it could be failure������- and embrace the chances of maximising opportunities regardless of the obstacles.
Give yourself to learning a new thing per time, whereby you create a new pathway in your mind and have your belief-system structured around it, until you fully gain the power ������������ to bring the ideas birthed into fruition.

Until I see you again, Conquer your fear, Conquer your world. ��������

Cheers
