MUST READ: LINDA IKEJI'S GOLDEN WORDS

Image
Nigeria's foremost blogger,Linda Ikeji, who recently lavished over half a billion naira on her new home,has shared thought-provoking words of inspiration to inspire young people. My name is Linda Ikeji. I’m a blogger. I’m 35 years old and I have never…never ever in my life slept with a man for money. Not only have I never done it, I have never even considered it…and here I am with a house that cost me over half a billion naira. Listen, you are beautiful and you are stronger than you know. There’s absolutely nothing you can’t achieve if you set your mind to it, put your heart and soul into it. Up until five years ago, I was a struggling entrepreneur. I can’t tell you how many offices in this Lagos I sat in for hours waiting to see people who could support my business…but most times, I never passed the reception area. But I never gave up and I never stopped believing and here I am today. You too can be this..you can be better than this. No dream is too big, no dream ...

“When everything seems to be against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.” ~ Henry Ford “What will you be doing today if you knew you won’t fail?” That to me is the most energizing question and the answer ought to form the basis for actions daily. The fear of the unknown has held many back from taking the needed action, when they ought to and often makes a potential super success live an average life till death. Apart from the fear of the unknown; past failure comes pretty next on the list.

Analyst are of the opinion that the American Government may have learnt a bitter lesson in both instances that it would have been best to work with these strong leaders than have them disposed and executed. that perhaps informs the policy shift with respect to the outcome of the recently concluded elections in Nigeria.

I HAVE BEEN ON A LONG BREAK BUT FOR THE ALUU 4

I always relish the idea of writing something that will benefit even if it's a single person then my work is done for the day. Unlike many in the Blogging Business, am not online primarily to make Money. I admire Bloggers that make huge fortune online and hope to someday profit from this Gift the Almighty had Graciously Lavished on me without measure that I can actually pick any topic and have something to say, it's a rare gift and am truly grateful to God. My simple mission in life is; "To Make Life A Lot Easier For Anyone That I Have The Rare Privilege For Our Paths To Cross" I may not have the opportunity to meet so many people in my life time, so I choose to put online my thoughts and the little I have gleaned from Books, Tapes and other materials i believe will be of benefit to others.
