HOW JIMOH IBRAHIM MADE HIS FIRST MILLION NAIRA!
By James Asu

 

You might have been beaten and battered by unpleasant situations and ugly circumstances around you. Maybe you’ve graduated from the tertiary institution for so long without any job in view. Or maybe you’ve a vision of your life’s purpose but lacks provision to pursue and bring it to reality. Don’t give up on yourself and don’t lose courage. I encourage you to always believe that you possess the ultimate power to bring your dream to pass and fulfil your God-given purpose in life. 

As the lyrics of one of my songs goes like this: “In everything you do, never give up or lose hope, just believe you can” and the stanzas follows: “You can make it to the top, you can make your dream come true, never give up or lose hope, just believe you can. You can be what you want to be, you can achieve what you want to achieve, never give up or lose hope, just believe you can.”

Remember that,   to everything there is a time and a season and everything that ever happens to a person is for a reason and for a season. And no matter how far you are to the fulfillment of your dreams, you will certainly get to your destination in life.

 I want to assure you that your moment of a better life has just begun. 

Before you can acquire all what you desire in life, you need to know what it require, and I strongly believe this true life story of Jimoh Ibrahim (Chairman /CEO, NICON Group) during his trying times in the stormy seas of life will surely inspire and ignite your mind positively and actively with the courage to take instant action that will help you bring your dreams to fruition.

The story begins:

“I come from a tough background and that has made me brace-up to the challenges of modern day business. Where one comes from hardly matters but where you are headed.

My father was a bricklayer and my mum sold fish. But what really matters is that I am rich today. I represent the children of the poor in the midst of the rich and I think I will inconvenience the rich a little until they learn to accept the children of the poor because these children have the right to live.

I always thought that I would be successful and I know that one of the reasons why I am in this world is to be successful. I had been working towards it. Whether I achieve it or not is in the hands of God.
I am grateful for where God has put me. I didn’t just get here one day. It has been a steady growth from my school days till now. I studied Law in the University about 17 years ago, then went to Law school. I did the NYSC and went back for my master’s in Ife, had another master’s in Harvard University. So it was a continuous growth. I made my first million around 1991.

How I made my first million was very simple. I just organised seminars and training programme for local governments. I charged each N25, 000 with about 80 participants. That fetched me my first N2 million. And I did about 15 other workshops that year. So you can calculate how much I made in that year alone. By the time I was leaving NYSC, I was about N27million richer. I had that in my bank account.”

Article Culled from the Success Secrets of Nigeria’s Richest Men by Peter Anosike, a Columnist on Success Tips in Daily Sun.

My Advice to you Dear Reader:
When you fall down, you have to pick yourself back up. Cheer up. Dress up. Stand up.  Rise up for you are born and destined to succeed in this life. And always put God first in all you do and rely always on Christ for help for He is the master of the sea and He will calm every storm in your life.

ONE MAJOR WAY OF BEING RESPONSIVE TO YOUR ABILITY

By PRAISE AKOBO It's possible you may or may not have thought of 'responsibility' as a 'response to ability'. So, let's roll. .. .. .. Have you checked, how that, when you were given a task, be it in school, church, office, firm or even that which you gave yourself? Did you see that, somehow, you felt lackadaisical at first but decided to take the bull by its horn? Now, the ability to do that was resident within, but came alive when you chose to act, this is why you hear words like UNTIL YOU GET STARTED, YOU CAN NOT START. .. .. .. I discovered that I understood something's about myself when I was given a responsibility in an N.G.O and accepted it. Just like you, I hesitated but until today, that has been a major factor in my growth. My NETWORK grew as well my NET WORTH. Lets say for instance, you are asked to be part of an Editorial Committee, you finally accepted, then along the line, you discovered ...
