Commitment



One way or the other, you must have heard an accomplished entrepreneur or business owner, a top management official, or a celebrated figure emphasize on commitment to a given goal as a vital ingredient of their success. Truth be told, it is easier said than done. But, the fact remains that your success is hinged on this one thing- commitment.

Look at Jesus' response to a fellow who wanted to be part of His ministry but was a bit distracted with other things.

Luke.9:62
And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

To be successful in the things of God requires commitment, it demands that you consistently do certain things. This kind of approach will always produce results no matter how long it might take. It starts from little things.

It doesn't matter what kind of business or job you do, this singular factor will always make you stand out.

This will always pay off no matter what you're involved in, be it real estate, hospitality services, catering, etc.

Keep at it.

The level of success you achieve will be in direct proportion to the depth of your commitment.”

Why I think you should invest into Real Estate in Nigeria.

In a society where making ends-meet seems to be a challenge, investing into sustainable businesses is a good way out. Today, business ideas abound and almost every serious minded person wants to have a money producing 'something' that s/he has control over. I need not say that getting money is more often that not a result of the value you bring to the table. ' Money is an end game of your exploits and the value you bring to the table.'                                                                             Emeka Nobis The Real Estate market is a business environment worth investing your money into as a lot of opportunities are in this market. Think about this: Nigeria has an estimated housing deficit of 17million units, and  a 2015 World Bank study projects ...

What do you know about India? Bollywood?

The world's richest man, Bill Gates of Microsoft posted an article on the 1st of May, 2017 on India's war on human waste. It is an insightful article as it highlights the vision of the Current Prime Minister of India - Narendra Damodardas Modi to improve public health; an excerpt from his first speech to the nation commemorating India's independence day captures this vision: "We are living in the 21st century. Has it ever pained us that our mothers and sisters have to defecate in the open?... The poor womenfolk of the village wait for the night; until darkness descends, they can't go out to defecate. What bodily torture they must be feeling, how many diseases that act might engender? Can't we make arrangements for toilets for the dignity of our mothers and sisters?" Less than 3 months after the speech, Modi's government started a campaign called Clean India Movement ( "Swachh Bharat Abhiyan" in Hindi)  which now includes ending open d...

Faith-less

Humans like to claim sole credit for their achievements; many times you see phrases like 'he is a self-made millionaire' , 'she built this business all by herself'. We don't really like to attribute our success or accomplishments to someone else.  Same thing with the subject of influence; we almost always want to claim original knowledge or thought and to shove aside any idea that what we claim to know and believe is in fact a result of an external influence.  We are all products of one influence or the other. You may claim to not believe in God and that you are in fact not a religious person; the fact remains that believing God doesn't exist, is a religion itself because you believe something and you are ready to prove that what you believe is true. You are influenced by someone or something anti-God; trust me you are not acting on your own. You have to know this! God does exist and if you want proof, just look around. Look at the trees, look at the birds, the ...
