Lessons highlighted…

1. Opportunities Always Come

There’s no way you live without an opportunity. Opportunities are everywhere, and it only takes one to see them. Cease the opportunity you have and diligently make use of it. Try not to miss an opportunity that presents itself to you but if you do, make sure you don’t miss the next. Do not always bank on the next opportunity. Take your present opportunity as the only one and work with it. When you miss an opportunity, don’t think another one will never come. Be prepared for the next.

2. Anything Is Possible

Even our ancient fathers know that anything is possible. Technology has gone a long way in making this even more possible. Now you can decide to go anywhere, reach anywhere around the world and do anything you want to do. You only need the right idea and the right process to make it happen.

3. Failure Is Inevitable

Along the line, expect to fail. But what is important is to never stay down. Success doesn’t come on a platter so be ready for the tough reality of failing. You should not quit because you failed but learn your lesson, pick up yourself and continue on your success journey.

4. Criticism Is Certain

If you’re not talked about, then you are not doing enough. Criticism is a way for you to know how well you are doing. When you are criticized, accept it. Learn from those ones that’ll help you and don’t give in to the ones that will bring you down. You will be criticized, listen but never be discouraged.

5. Small Start, Big End

You might hate to hear this but except you are Dangote’s daughter or Bill Gate’s son, expect to start small. Even these men want to see their children start small. It takes some time to build up success. You will never achieve success immediately. You must be ready for the journey towards making it big. Always believe you’ll be successful but be ready to work for it. Be ready to move down the bumpy road and at the end, you’ll be big. The better and more creative your idea, the better your chances of making it faster.

6. Attitude Triggers Success

Your attitude towards others and attitude towards yourself goes a long way in bringing success. The way you see yourself is the way you’ll end up. The way you treat others is the way others will treat you. Think great things, and great things will come because when you think it, you start acting it and when you act it, it has no choice than to answer for you.

7. There’s Nothing New Under The Sun

Have in mind that anything you might be thinking of doing has already been done. That shouldn’t make you stop. It only means that for you to be successful, do that same thing slightly different. Be more creative and repackage that idea.
