Today I went to Clearwater Mall and had a powerful reminder about loving your job.

I popped into the restroom, and the gentleman cleaning it greeted me with a huge smile and said:
“Welcome to my office.”

And you know what? He meant it.
He cleaned, wiped, and kept everything spotless — smiling the whole time.

This man was enthusiastic, jovial, and clearly happy with what he was doing.

It made me think:
Happiness doesn’t come from a job title, a paycheck, or fancy perks — it comes from within.

Imagine how different the world would be if everyone brought this level of joy and pride to their work.

Don't be quick to judge people without full information. People are going through a lot in silence. Be kind and be a decent human being.

The following story was written by Coach Kelvin Waga. It's a sad story; read until the end.

In 2023, I had an employee.
But she wasn’t just an employee.
She was my friend. 💔😢

She was always sick.
Headaches.
Stomach pains.
Excuses that sounded endless.

Always late.
Sometimes no work at all.

I was torn.
Between empathy and practicality.
Between being a boss and being a human.

I thought maybe bringing her into the office would change things.
It didn’t.

One day, I called her in.
I asked softly, “Are you okay?”

Silence.

She always wore a mavin.
That day, she removed it.
Then she pulled a chunk of her hair.

I froze.
My throat tightened.
Tears began to fall before she even spoke. 😢

“Coach… I have cancer.
It started to spread.
I have kids to feed.
I cannot afford chemo.
I’m sorry… I failed you.
You are right to fire me. I won’t take it personal.”

I broke. 💔😭

It wasn’t my employee sitting in front of me.
It was my friend.
My friend with stage 3 cancer.
My friend who couldn’t even afford a chance at life.

I told her to rest.
And even though I was struggling myself,
I gave her a small stipend each month.
Because she needed it more than I did.

Then one day…
Her number lit up my phone.
But the voice wasn’t hers.

“Coach… Mom wants to see you. Please come immediately.”

I dropped everything.
When I got there—
What I saw still haunts me.

A pale, bony body.
Eyes sunken.
Breath heavy.
Pain written on every inch of her.

She looked at me, gathered what little strength she had left…

“Haaaai… co… coach.
It’s time.
Thank you for taking a chance on me.
You made my last days memorable.
Please… don’t forget my children.”

And then…
She took her last breath. 😭😭😭

I cried.
Not like a boss.
Not like a coach.
But like a friend losing another friend. 💔

Today marks the day she died in 2023.
Rest in peace, Maureen 🕊️💔😢😭

I still support her children.
Because compassion isn’t optional.
Because stories like hers don’t leave you.
They live inside you forever.

🙏 Please… if you see this, hit repost to help me honor her memory. Let her story live on.

Do you remember Mxit?

TikTok Facebook , Twitter , Instagram , had which was once ’s biggest messaging based social networking app. This was on the not so smart phones.

Its been exactly 10 years since Mxit shut down. Mxit was then a popular social media app on the not so smart phones. It was founded by Herman Heunis in Stellenbosch. In 1997.

Here are the four main reasons why Mxit failed

1. Declining User Base
2. Rise of Smartphones
3. Inability to Adapt
4. failure to innovate

In 2013 Mxit had 7.5 million users in South Africa which dramatically dropped to 1.5 million by July 2015. All businesses which have failed , primarily do so due to the four factors above. The same thing happened to Blackberry and Nokia.

The same existential threats woil be faced by people and businesses which are not adapting to which is here to stay.

There are people and organisations in 2025 who view as a bad thing. Its an assistant, which helps in ideation, production, writing and anything else. It quick, analytical and it makes like easy for users. So why make your life difficult by not using it?

Those that refuse to use and adapt to it will perish.
