Part 9. One thing successful people hate more than a lack of opportunity to invest, is people who always beg. You might raise an eyebrow or two but try putting yourself in their shoes before you judge. Would you be happy to be around people who always want to get money out of you? Would you want to be surrounded by borrowers and beggars? The simple answer is no! No one wants to be around those kind of lot. In economic sense they are liabilities not assets. If you invest your money on liabilities than assets, you will enter liquidation and declare bankruptcy. A Yoruba adage says, one rich man in the midst of many wretched people is also wretched. To attract wealth, you must quit begging and start providing answers to questions people ask. Do you want to catch the fancy of a rich man or a person of influence, you have to come up with an answer to a question he ask. This is one great realization you must come to before you rise. In the rigged game of wealth, you have to...

Part 8. I have always wondered why the Rich seclude themselves to one area of city. Think Beverly Hills in Hollywood or ShunYi and ChanPing in Beijing, Mitte-Tiergarten or Grunewald in Berlin, Ternes and Monceau in Paris, Maitama, Abuja, Ajah and Lagos Island of the ever busy city of Lagos, then you should understand. These are different cities from different countries but they are all the same when it comes to the rich segregating themselves from the poor. Contrary to what you might be thinking, this segregation is not because of pride or contempt for the poor, many rich people now were sometime hustlers and impoverished. So belittling their days of humble beginnings would be a slap on their own face. They separate themselves because they have activated a strange thing called a "millionaire's mentality". Believe it or not there is a millionaire's mentality and the way it works not only baffles the poor, it irks them too. It's your...

Part 7. The game of wealth can be likened to a football match. Twenty Two (22) Players are allowed to play for 90 minutes. Say for the substitution of both teams and few coaching staffs the majority of the stadium are spectators. It reminds me of the game between the old rivals Manchester United and Liverpool played on the 20th of October, 2019 at Old Trafford with much hype and how Liverpool have the edge and probably  the game will be the last of Ole Gunnar Solskjær coaching Manchester United. Too much of hype and prediction favouring Liverpool due to their form. Eventually, the game was played and it was a one all draw. After so much hyping and the likes... The take home from the story above is that the game has been played. The players either win or draw got paid. The spectators on the other hand, didn't get what they were wishing for. Spectators were left for the what ifs, analogy, scrutiny and many more... Like the football game, the game of wealth was desi...

Part 6. Between the poor and the rich, there is a gap that can't be jumped or swum. You can be the best in your field but if you don't come to this realization, you might remain mediocre all your life. If you don't believe me, lets examine Edison and Tesla. Nikola Telsa was one of the brightest mind of the 20th century. A winner of the War of currents. On a contract with Thomas Edison's company he recoiled the electric dynamo and created the A. C circuit. As if that's not enough, he postulated inductive electricity in which power can be beamed from masts, much like radio waves. Of course he did all of this but it's a shame, Tesla died in poverty. The reason? he didn't care about the gulf between the rich and the poor. Telsa was a scientist, not a businessman. He thought he could 'smart' his way through. He thought intelligence is the only factor of success and little wonder he failed. Thomas Edison on the other hand attended only...

Part 5. Show me a winner and I would show you an hard worker. It's true, the workaholics are mostly the winners and champions. But before you head to the gym poised to work yourself to death, let him give you a rude awakening, this is not so all the time! Hard work only gets you to the door, it doesn't get you the deal. Of course you have to get yourself to the door to stand any chance of winning, but if you don't have that extra something, you might consider all your work for naught. The reward for hard work is more hard work not success. Success is a gift not won but something you qualify for if you play by the rules of life. In life you would see people who do everything but don't succeed. Then also there are people who don't do much and success flows. It's all about chance and positioning. You can land the best job of your life, if you position yourself well. And by hard work and chance you would ride the highs of success. The chances of lif...

Part 4. It's July 1998, and we have reached the business end of the World Cup in France. France square it against current defending champion Brazil. Everyone knew what dangers posed by the Samba boys. It's not a fluke this nation has 4 winners medal to their name. And besides they had the deadliest attacker in the game, Ronaldo De Lima. In a charged arena, finally the whistle went for kick off. The French were on the attack from start to finish and they won their first trophy. Two goals from Zinedan Zidane and a third from Emmanuel Petit secured victory. Now why am I telling you this story? What's all this have to do with succeeding in business and life. Yes, hard working France won, big deal! They won their second trophy last year, what's the point? Yes, France won that trophy but its not that victory which is so important. It's the news that later emerged about how they won. In 2018 former UEFA president, Michel Platini, revealed how they ...

Part 3: Studies shows that it's neither the best products that sell the most nor the best boxer which wins every bout. Yes, hard work, persistence, perseverance, a fiery passion and an impeccable altitude are all factors of success but then there is something more. A secret formula which can turn everything, even a sows ear into a silk purse. Every champion knows that despite the fact that they got themselves to the edge of glory relying on being dogged and long suffering, real success wasn't achieved until they discovered the little piece of rare magic that transformed their efforts into victory. An African adage says...that thing which the Elder are using to eat their pudding is under the leaf wrappings... And they also say...If a child knows how to clean his hands, then he would eat with the Elders.... True victory can only come if you have discovered that the games of wealth are rigged and you would need an 'Elder' who deem you clean enough to '...
