I recently went to see an old partner of mine. For his own reasons he went his way some years ago. And once he went away, he joined some people who tried very hard to harm us as a company and me personally. I was extremely angry for a while. We have a saying in my language – “The King punishes immediately, but the Lord punishes eventually.”
Whatever goes around comes around and I was shocked to hear a few months ago that he had had a stroke and was immobilized. View full article »
Participants of Zone 2012 shared the one thing they would take back with them and apply, once they leave the physical space of The Zone.

A pitfall is defined as a camouflaged source of trouble or danger – a hidden hazard.
Take, for instance, a hole in the ground. You might not see it as you’re walking and be caught unaware. Thereby, falling into it and ending up at the bottom of the abyss.
On the other end of the spectrum, you have the pillar – a vertical support used to uplift and hold oneself up. Pillars form the essential support for buildings and other structures and, in essence, keep the roof over one’s head. In this sense of the word, uphold the principle that in turn holds up the foundations of your life.

The human body is the most important vehicle that any person can have. So, what can you do without this vehicle? Can you achieve success without this vehicle? Are you really driving this vehicle to maximum capacity?
The human body has 5 main sensory organs.
Eyes, nose, ears, tongue, touch
Within these, each organ has its own activity. Seeing, hearing, tasting, speaking and feeling. All of these activities are the senses through which a being can absorb and acquire knowledge. Each of these helps us perceive things around us. The conglomeration of all of their activities is reported in the mind. The mind is your software. The hardware of the mind is called the brain. All of your learning takes place in the software of the mind.

If you think about it, when you are making USD 5000, your expenses are within your income. Then you get to USD 10,000, you realise that your expenses have shot up. Then you are at USD 50,000 and your expenses catch up again. So, how much is enough?
Your goals need to be very clear.

A good speaker is not just creating a waterfall of words. That is just a barrage, like vomiting. Doesn’t make you a wordsmith. There is a big difference between speaking as an art and just speaking and you must understand that business, otherwise you will never understand the business you are in.
Its one thing to be a speaker and another thing to be able to speak your mind.
Its one thing to pour your words out and one thing to convince. View full article »
