Life of purpose

  Have seen this picture a thousand times, have personally experienced their pain as an ordained Minster I have travelled inside this boats to preach to people from this community they have told me if ONLY YOU CAN BUY A SINGLE PAIR OF PAMPER FOR MY SON I WILL FOLLOW YOU TO CHURCH 😢😢😔.  I seen the wealth and degradation in this community especially flaring etc . I wonder do the leaders of the Niger delta have conscience? We own the land ,oil yet we don't have any oil company bigger than chevron or shell even in ongoing bidding for oil block no Niger delta state is bidding but the governor's use their proxies to bid for themselves. worst part they bid for contracts in the major oil companies to live vain lives while their followers suffer. The terrible part is the ignorant youth instigate war against their perceived enemies  the itsekiris & ijaws😢.  When are we going to realise that our leaders are the real enemies?

In business the role luck plays in success and personal achievement is rarely discussed. If luck is mentioned, it is done with slight condescension, and usually dismissed as a product of hard work, not deserving significant attention. While hard work is paramount – and I have written extensively about the importance of working hard – history and my own experiences show that there is often a large element of success that hard work alone can not explain. It is simply not true that “you make your own luck.” I started my career as a salesman, a copier salesman to be specific, young, hungry, and hardworking, but the reality was that I was just one of thousands of young Nigerian graduates, all eager to succeed. How did I get from there to where I am now? Of course, hard work, resilience, a long-term vision – but also luck.
