MY 17 MILLION NAIRA DECISION
PASSION~2~PROFIT!: MY 17 MILLION NAIRA DECISION!
Have you ever made a N17 million decision? I made one once, but didn't know it at the time.
In Oct 2010, I left a fantastic career and mentor on divine instruction. I had ONLY N20, 000 in my account, a pregnant wife who had left her job, my rent was due and most importantly, I WAS SCARED!

I'm sure you know what I mean. I had equated my job with my value and security, and now that it was gone, I felt I'd lost all my value. Being a two-time College Dropout, my career options were limited, so I decided to look INWARD. The only things I knew I could do were SPEAK, CONSULT, COACH and maybe WRITE and I could do them for FREE.
By April 2011, I had earned my 1 year salary, by July, (2 year salary), by September, (3 year salary) and by November I had earned my 4 years salary! Which came to 17 million Naira!
Wait a second! What happened between October 2010 and April 2011 that made the difference? I stumbled across this big secret which I’m about to share with you. It changed my life forever.

Five top tips to starting a successful business
I found this article online, written by my favorite business
mentor – Sir. Richard Branson. As is always the case whenever I am opportuned to
read his thoughts on business, I was indeed inspired and encouraged by the
article. I thought you would too, so here’s to sharing & hoping you’ll love
this as much as I did.
Enjoy!
As LinkedIn is a business that started in a living room, much
like Virgin began in a basement, I thought my first blog on the site should be
about how to simply start a successful business. Here are five top tips I’ve
picked up over the years.
Vulnerability is Sexy
If you are reading this, it means
you’re in the beauty industry, whether knowingly or unknowingly. This might
come as a shock to you if you think you’re not. But the truth is: everybody (Yes
that includes you) is in the beauty industry. We all want to look Presentable, Charming,
Attractive, Glamorous, Sexy and most of all, command the attention and respect
of everyone around us – sounds just like you right?
It does not matter what you
do, the beauty industry-land is where we all spend the first few hours of the
day. We want to look trendy in that new outfit. We want to rock that new shoe.
We want to flaunt that Versace bag. And we want smell incredibly “delicious”
(never mind the expression).
Be Vulnerable!!!
Vulnerability is the new
sexy.
You’re not in this industry
because you want to fill a space or God forbid, you couldn't get a job after 5
years in the university. P.S: if that is why you’re here- you need a change of
profession ASAP.
If that is cleared, here are
ways you can be vulnerable.
By the way, “vulnerability
in this context does not mean weakness. Rather, it means: “daring to do the
possibilities that have the ‘im’ tag in front of them”.
