Your Passion is on a Journey....Follow it

"You have to be burning with an idea, or a problem, or a wrong that you want to right. If you're not passionate enough from the start, you'll never stick it out." ― Steve Jobs

One of the laws that governs success is the law of precision. That means that your thinking has got to be precise. That means that your vision has to be precise. That means you must learn how to refocus your passion to enable you to see the commercial value in your passion.

Everyone has a passion. The fact that you exist is your guarantee that you do. Your passion is who you are. Everything about you is an expression of your passion. Your love is the expression of your passion. Your enthusiasm is the expression of your passion. Your fear is an expression of your passion. Your desires are the expressions of your passion. Every thought you have ever had of new ways to express yourself is your passion speaking to you. Every feeling that has ever passed through you that beckons you to be, do and have more is an expression of your passion.

Your passion reveals the underlying theme of your life and the role you have chosen to play in life. Your passion is what guides your decisions in all of your choices. Your passion communicates its existence through that still small voice within you when you choose to listen.

Surrounding yourself with your passions is the number-one way to live a truly free and fulfilling life. Life is much more fulfilling when you are waking up every day excited to work. If you make your passion your business and your business, your passion; then and only then can you create incredible lifestyle that is truly fulfilling and financially rewarding. Yet, some people despise their passion. They simply walk out of their passion because of ignorance.

Without doubt, passion is the key to living a life of fulfilment and success. Working outside of your passion is like driving your car on the first gear around the town for a whole day! You will stress the engine, yet you will go a low speed…

…This is exactly what most people do with their lives! Most people are on a job they don’t like, receiving the salary they don’t like to live a life they don’t like.

Of course, to create a passion business, you need to know what you are passionate about. The good news is that you can build your business around just about any passion. But just getting interested is never enough for the attainment of any worthy goal. Commitment to dogged pursuit is what delivers sustainable passion business.

This seminar will hand you the key to release the locked-up cash inside of you which you have always ignored. In establishing your passion business, your brain could be your best weapon of mass construction or the weapon of mass destruction, if you don’t know how to use it. It’s your choice.

At this Seminar, we will show you how your mind has sabotaged your success up to this point. But, we will not stop at that, but will also show you how to take control of your mind and the thoughts in your head that have been holding you back from starting your passion business, once and for all.

I had learned a long time ago that if you’re interested in something, you’re going to do what’s convenient, but if you’re committed, you’ll do whatever it takes. Make a commitment now to follow your passion and turn it to a business.

At this Passionpreneurship Strategy Session, you will know how to:

1. Identify which of your passions can pass the business test. You will be guided on how to choose the passion that has the most commercial value so that you can profit the most;

2. Understand how to develop passion products and services. If you are in a career, you will learn from our career-passion business transition mechanism;

3. Learn the step-by-steps guide to marketing your passion products, passion business branding and strategies will help you generate cash;

4. Develop an optimal passion business financing mix that will attract financing opportunities; and
5. Achieve mind-congruence with your passion business and replace limiting patterns of mind sabotage.

Plainly speaking, we seek to help you create your passion business whilst you are doing what you are doing, if that is what you would like to do. We will work with you to retrain your mind to create a great vision for your passion business so you can start with a perfect picture.

See you at the venue!

Igbo youths warn Obasanjo against anti-Jonathan comments

The youth wing of the apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, the Ohanaeze Ndigbo , has warned ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo over his reported remarks on President Goodluck Jonathan.

Media reports had quoted Obasanjo as saying that Jonathan shifted the election dates because he was afraid of defeat and that perhaps the President had been listening to aides telling him that he stands the risk of being jailed for corruption should the opposition All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) wins the poll.

The former President also alleged that Jonathan was engaging in “the do-or-die” politics played by the former President of Cote d’Ivoire, Laurent Gbagbo.

But the Ohanaeze Youth Council warned Obasanjo to stop inciting Nigerians against the President, who, according to the group, “has dwarfed the achievements of all former Nigerian leaders.”

Speaking with our correspondent in Umuahia, the Abia State capital, the National President of OYC, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, said “Obasanjo should stop fanning the embers of war through his unguarded utterances against a sitting President.”

Isiguzoro accused Obasanjo of plotting, in connivance with some undemocratic elements, to topple Jonathan’s government through inciting comments, warning that any attempt to derail Nigeria’s democracy would be resisted.

“Obasanjo is a disappointment to democracy. He should not plunge Nigeria into another civil war through his hate remarks against Jonathan,” he said.

Isiguzoro said Jonathan had “by all standards proved to be a core democrat, otherwise the likes of Obasanjo should be cooling his feet in the jail by now because of his evil deeds while in office.”

The OYC leader said corruption was institutionalised during Obasanjo’s administration and wondered when the former President overnight turned into the vanguard of democracy.

He said, “Obasanjo should know that he has expired politically and Nigerian youths cannot allow him and other spent forces that belong to the past to ruin our future.

“Nigeria cannot buy his belated and selfish idea of Interim National Government, and all those plotting to put Nigeria backwards will be disappointed because the youths are now wiser.”

Isiguzoro further argued that “if anyone should be afraid of going to jail because of corruption and illegality, it is Obasanjo who superintended over the destruction of Odi town while he was in office.”

He said that President Jonathan deserved the right to seek re-election and should not be deprived of that right by “members of a self-serving cabal who think that Nigeria is their private estate.”

Obasanjo, Nigeria’s Number One enemy —Fayose

Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose, has described former President Olusegun Obasanjo as the number one enemy of Nigeria, saying: “He is a confusionist who has lost his status as a statesman and Nigerians should simply ignore him.”

Ayodele-FayoseThe governor, who expressed confidence that President Goodluck Jonathan will be reelected to complete his eight year-term, added: “Obasanjo is only fighting President Jonathan because he prevented him (Obasanjo) from ruling Nigeria from his Ota Farm.”

In a statement issued yesterday by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, Governor Fayose said: “Obasanjo is a cancer that may never get cured in a lifetime. The moment Obasanjo is not the one controlling a house, he will want the house pulled down but this time around, he has failed.
“Obasanjo has always benefited from the misfortune of others and he is living with the impression that he is the wisest person in the whole world.

When Murtala Mohammed was murdered in 1976, Obasanjo was the beneficiary. In 1993, he said the acclaimed winner of the June 12, 1993 presidential election, late Chief MKO Abiola, was not the messiah Nigeria needed. Instead of Obasanjo to join the clamour for the actualisation of Abiola’s mandate, Obasanjo was canvassing for an Interim National Government, which he schemed to head.

“MKO Abiola died in detention in 1998 and Obasanjo became the beneficiary of his (Abiola) death. Despite the fact that it was the blood of MKO Abiola that Obasanjo marched on to power, not even a street was named after Abiola throughout Obasanjo’s eight years as president.

“Today, Obasanjo is fighting President Jonathan, the man who has done what he failed to do for Abiola, the Yoruba people and Nigerians as a whole when he was president for eight years, simply because he does not want anyone to equal his record as Nigeria’s longest serving president.

“President Jonathan has made it impossible for Obasanjo to run his presidency for him and for this reason, he is supporting Buhari, hoping that he will be the one to nominate ministers for Buhari if he becomes president. However, I have this bad news for Obasanjo. Nigeria is not his football that he can kick around as he likes. President Jonathan will be reelected and Nigeria will be freed from Obasanjo’s bo***ge once and for all.”

The co**se of one of the victims was deposited at Oepdem Mortuary in Ahoada while police took another co**se to Rumuji. Nine others were burnt beyond recognition.”

Meanwhile, the Bayelsa State Government, has declared three days mourning in honour of the women.
Governor Henry Dickson of Bayelsa State, yesterday expressed pains, shock and grief over the accident.

Meanwhile, the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Organisation, APCPCO, has commiserated with the people and government of Bayelsa State over the death of the prominent women in the state in the accident.
Dickson in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Daniel Iworiso-Markson, described the incident as tragic, monumental and painful loss to the state, adding “The women that lost their lives in the accident are our mothers and sisters.”

He prayed God to grant the bereaved families the courage and strength to bear the very painful and irreparable losses.
He added: “All official engagements of the governor have been suspended for three days as a mark of honour and respect for the souls of the departed women.”

A statement by the Director of Media and Publicity of APCPCO, Malam Garba Shehu, urged families of all those who may have lost their loved ones in the tragedy to take solace in the comfort of God.
It said: “It is with a painful heart that we commiserate with the people and Government of Bayelsa over the ghastly auto crash involving some supporters of the First Lady.

“We pray that God will grant the bereaved families the fortitude to bear the losses. We urge the people and government of Bayelsa State to be comforted and strengthened by God as they grieve over the loss of dear ones.”

My military rule is better than Democracy rule- Buhari

The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), General Muhammadu Buhari last Wednesday drew questions from CNN International Correspondent, Christine Amanpour on a number of issues relating to his aspiration and his record as military head of state. Excerpts:

WHat is your reaction to the delay in the elections by six weeks, and President Goodluck Jonathan’s promise that the military will make inroad in the area of security of the North-East in six weeks?

My reaction is that of disappointment because the presentation made by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) was that they were ready to conduct the elections on the dates they fixed a year ago, and for them to be forced virtually by the military, which said that they cannot guarantee the safety of INEC staff, which made the commission to concede to the demand of additional six weeks…

But since six weeks is within the time stipulated by the constitution, we had to advise our supporters to remain calm, resolute and obey the law.

You are a former military general, and you ruled the country briefly. Why is it that the Nigerian military, today, cannot take on Boko Haram, and has failed to combat that terrorist organization?

The issue was made much clear when the National Assembly attempted to conduct a hearing after soldiers sent to the front without proper weapons were granting interviews to the foreign media.

Competent leadership

The National Assembly attempted to conduct a hearing by getting the budgets approved by it in the last three years and inviting the service chiefs to come and explain why weapons were not procured and sent to the soldiers under competent leadership, but the hearing was scuttled.

This shows misapplication or misappropriation of resources and funds provided by the government, and also explains why the Nigerian military was unable to defeat Boko Haram.

You recently got a huge endorsement from a former ally of President Jonathan; that is former President Olusegun Obasanjo. How do you react to that and what will that do to your campaign?

It will certainly bring more supporters to us and more confidence again to us from those who were sitting on the fence before now (especially) because General Obasanjo is highly respected as far as the Nigerian nation is concerned. There is no serious issue that can be discussed without people seeking for his opinion and listening to it.

The headlines around the world are that the Nigerian presidential election is a contest between a failed president and former dictator, and you are the former dictator according to these headlines.

Some people say that you expelled 700,000 migrants years back, thinking that it would create jobs; that you banned political meetings and free speech; that you detained thousands of people; set up secret tribunals; executed people for crimes that were not capital offences. Have you changed, or are these what the Nigerian people should look forward to if you win the election?

All those things you mentioned with a degree of accuracy were what actually happened but they were under a military administration.

When the military under my leadership came on board, we suspended those aspects of the constitution that we felt would make it difficult for us to operate under the circumstance we found ourselves.

But I think I would be judged harshly as an individual by what happened during that military administration, or to extend what happened under a military administration to a democratic system.

Now that you say that you are a democrat, what do you think you can do to combat Boko Haram and the galloping corruption in your country?

We know how Boko Haram started. Certainly the Nigerian military has built a reputation for effectiveness, but it is a great embarrassment to the country that the military has not been able to secure Nigeria’s territory, losing 14 out of 774 local governments.

Equipment and training

I believe that it will not be difficult for an APC government to deal with Boko Haram because we know that the Nigerian military is competent. What we will do is to make sure the funds voted for equipment and training are properly utilized.

On corruption, there are complains by many people in your country over massive corruption. Can you face up against that? Are you committed to rooting out corruption?

We have to because there are serious citizens of our country who say that “unless Nigeria kills corruption, corruption will kill Nigeria.” And this was best illustrated by the hearings conducted by the National Assembly on the pension fund, power sector and petroleum industry, on which the country depends on for about 90 per cent of its external revenue.

The National Assembly conducted the hearings here in Abuja and the six-geo-political zones of the country. They sent their recommendations to the executive but they have been there collecting dust in the last 18 months.
