Mentee
Are you employed ? do you have a part time job ? Are you a civil servant in particular?
DO NOT QUIT YOUR JOB!
Count it a blessing that you do have something you are doing already before i come with my 2cents that could improve your life.
Research says that, for a person to be considered financially stable/normal he or she has to have at least 7 sources of income.
If you hear any👂 a motivational speaker 🗣️ saying quit your job, do not(he is not completely wrong, but he lacks wisdom…WE ARE IN AFRICA, hakuna ma funnies akadaro), rather add more sources of income, do not quit and start from Zero… iDzungu risina basa iroro
Let me tell you something about Africans
Africans generally do not want to take risks, they would rather live licking other peoples shoes(politicians, pastors,mbingas,CEOs and other highly placed people in societies than be the decision maker…
If you do not take risks, you will always work for one who does take risks😎
Hear me out…
Everyone who controls your Finances controls you 😞, thats why our dads gave us curfews as long as we were still under their roofs.
Companies demand us to show up at 8am, determine our lunch time, and will need to approve our off days…
Sadly many have seen so much sense in getting paid only 12 times a year 😞 or just once in 30 days than every day.
The difference between the RICH and the POOR is INFORMATION and Discipline.
If you do not take a risk, NOT TAKING A RISK… WILL BE THE BIGGEST RISK YOU WOULD HAVE TAKEN ALL YOUR LIFE.
Lets say you work a 9-5 job, or you are busy between 9-5pm everyday.
Any change in your FINANCIAL status will be determined by activities between 5pm to 6am 🕕 the next day.
Listen…in that period of time many invest more in entertainment, sleep and others improving their lives.
Others get into competition with the dead…sleeping competition… its justified 😒 but
If you do not sacrifice for a better/good life, better/good life will be the SACRIFICE
Knowing all series on NETFLIX sounds cool 😎, but in reality there a two people here….
One who is making money 💰 (Netflix), and one who is losing money everyday(you know who)
For others,what takes most of their time are GOAT debates😢, Facebook live broadcast of people shouting at each other, series etc.
Its either you watch 6-10hrs of television or you become rich, the two cannot co-exist…YOU CAN’T GET BOTH.
This is how i see wisdom.
It is the immediate sacrifice of PLEASURE for long range purposes
If you do not plan in life, You are planning to fail.
Time is the only resource that can never be recovered, invest it well…
Make it a must to meet new people everyday, grow your network,be innovative and most importantly be ready to UNLEARN and relearn.
Times have evolved, you can work at night your time (Africa), because it is Day time in Newyork and Sydney.
Make it a point to do a lot, working for someone is not WRONG, it is one source of income, you can add more. We aren’t all meant to be Entrepreneurs….
but side hustles and extra businesses are a MUST!
CAPITAL!!
YOU DO NOT HAVE CAPITAL… okay hear this
There is no capital coming, forget it, NO one is coming to save you.
Now that you know….Lets start from Here….
A very good idea will honestly fetch its own capital, so may be your ideas aren’t good enough.
Another way, review your company, meet new people, new hangout places, make new networks, surround your self with people who want to see you win.
This is what i call social capital, it can be turned into the money you need.
You can choose to blame everyone else except you…. Do you want the truth… no one cares…
If you do not take your life PERSONAL, zve idi chaizvo zvichashata pamberi apa…
Nomatter what wangu, let us find ways… if there seems not to be one… lets create it!
If you keep on giving it excuses, YOU WILL BE EXCUSED. Life still goes on.
Remain HUNGRY…
The only way to enjoy another meal is to get hungry 🤤
