I found this very inspiring article on Mshale.com.
Despite what is going on in Africa, we have to keep going. We need to focus on being
problem solvers, thats the only way we will overcome. We cannot dwell on the past.
Here is bits of the article...by Moraa Gitaa , Mshale Correspondent
Fundamental Principles of Wealth Creation
To create wealth is to use one’s own thoughts or imagination to work in order to bring something unique into this world.
The following is the recipe for wealth creation.
To Create Wealth, One Must:
i. Solve somebody’s problem.
ii. Provide solutions that people are ready to pay you for.
iii. Solve problems of as many people as possible.
His other statement was that there is an abundance of problems in this world and that we need to look for these problems and solve them, and that will be wealth creation.
We thus need to:
1) Identify our unique talent:
Talent is a recurring pattern of thought, feeling or behavior that can be productively applied.
Talent is not an action first and foremost, but a way of thinking.
Our uniqueness is our strength. Nobody can ignore you if you are unique.
It is that difference that makes you strong.
2) Acquire relevant Knowledge:
Relevant to your unique talents (Get all the facts and lessons that can be learnt)
3) Develop Skill:
Doctor Otabil defined skill as ‘Formalized steps of an activity. Consistency’
Skill helps you to predict and repeat success.
His conclusion on skill was that once you have it, you can maneuver success under any circumstance.
