Time and Dedication

His other car is a Rolls Royce Ghost.
He resumes for work everyday by 8am.
He runs a luxury interior decoration and fittings business. For clarity sake, he sells curtains and rugs etc.
He's over 70yrs old and i've not yet seen him with a staff. He runs it by himself.

Lesson:

Sucess requires TIME & DEDICATION.

Extra explanations for those who don't/won't understand the short statement above:

1. If you like you can go and be praying at the grave of Idahosa, you cannot make it if you are lazy. This man at his age and with his financial worth should have taken to relax-golfing and gardening now as his daily grind but he's still hustling. Iwo o n'ise. O la lo, o l'abo, wa kan sun bonaku kale... gbogbo nkan daadaa lo de nwu ole e. Gbo mi o, kii se epe, but ebi ni npa monamoma ku.

2. If you leave your dream in the hands of others to manage for you, it'll die. I'm not even sure his company has a website but his direct involvement has brought him the success he desired.
Let me make a practical example here: You run a business but won't show up until 1pm, by which time your shop assistants would have made enough profits for themselves in your absence, and damage your reputation alongside. By the time you realise what they are doing and sack them, they have already formed business relationships with your clients. All they need to do now is set up themselves as your direct competitor with the same contacts they built while working for you.
Oju oloju o le dabi oju eni. I have seen this over and over again. If you want somethig done, do it by yourself.

3. This is not a new business and the owner is equally old. Success requires time. This man has built whatever he has now over a considerable period of time. He did not arrive where he is overnight.
Stop wishing, start something. Work tirelessly on it. Treat it like a hot coal that you need to fan to flames, else it'll smoulder out. If it's not yielding results now don't quit. Keep working...keep pushing. Don't give up. All crops do not have the same harvest period. What you are planting will determine the time of your harvest. Be patient!

4. He sells curtains and fittings- and rides a Ferrari and a RR Ghost. This might not correlate but it does not need to. That's the mystery behind FINDING YOURSELF OUT. Some people have even acquired more by just posting videos on youtube. Iyen tun nko?
Stop running on the wrong lane. Find your own purpose and calling, and put all your best behind it. You too can ride a jet!

Goodmorming.
