Rome wasn’t built in a day
This is an adage that has been in existent for centuries, but when I was young I didn’t understand this adage because I grew up in an environment where we all want to make money quick. The environment corrupts us and makes us believe that before you can make it, you need to do some illegal things because our leaders aren’t clean anyway.
I keep telling myself every day, over and over again, I want to do good, I want to make an impact and I knew one day, I will invent or invest in something good, days, months, and years pass, I didn’t understand my purpose because I don’t know what purpose and vision is, until I started reading books and listen to men of vision and purpose, great men of God like Dr. David Oyedepo, Pastor Femi Emmanuel, Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo and Brian Tracy, Ben Carson books and videos, Pastor Emmanuel WhatsApp Counseling has changed my life completely.
After reading and listening to them for many years, I figure out that I have great potential, I started my business and started growing it, from a small office to a bigger office our clients keep growing day by day same thing as our bank account.
Things to focus on growth, both life and business as an entrepreneur.
1. Foresight: Think about where you want to find yourself in the next 20 to 30years, about your future, where you want to see your kids, how you want your relationship to look like, how you want the business to look like… This is very important because it’s like your vision and mission in life both in your personal life and business world.
2. Be consistency: To be consistent is crucial…. Though things might be rough and tough, keep pushing because you are learning in the process and its part of growth.
3. Find a Mentor: I don’t understand what mentoring is some years ago but after reading and listening to men with of vision, I understood with mentorship means and being a mentee doesn’t make you a slaves, it actually makes you a Leader because leaders always seek for more knowledge and doing this is called wisdom.
4. Humility: I have to include this, being humble is crucial because a lot of people are watching you as you grow, be humble to the younger and older people around you, remember a lot of people do look up to.
5. Give back: Giving back to the community is the last on the list, you are motivated by someone or something, so give back to the community, this means a lot, and this helps people you gave back to. This goes a long way.
As I said Rome wasn’t built in a day!
