Peace maker or Pace maker
In a world where arguments, broken homes and relationships is the order of the day, there is a greater need and urgency for solution providers before things escalate. What difference would it be to have water poured over the fire spark before it becomes a full blown blaze. For as long as we are notContinue reading “Peace maker or Pace maker”
Ready, Fire, AIM!
The first time I heard the expression, I thought to myself; that cannot be right. How can you prepare for a thing, execute it and then position yourself? Should you not get ready first, aim and then fire? We are used to being told to get ready when opportunity comes knocking. We are familiar withContinue reading “Ready, Fire, AIM!”
Contentment Vs Self-Actualization
One of the most inspiring videos I have had the opportunity to come across, tells the story of a contented woman. I watched this video at a time when the world was in chaos and world leaders could barely sleep.

How to live a worry free life
I have always been accused of sauntering through life like I have no problem. What people fail to understand is the fact that I do not entertain fear, worry or anxiety. I have learnt to live my worry free life by doing four

How Much?
Think about why people treat you the way you are treated. Confidence in carriage does not arise from copying what you like in other people. Confidence is a product of knowledge…….
The 3P’s of success
Flexibility is important in life and so is structure. Do not be caught at either extreme. What ever you decide to do in life, if you want success along its lines, be sure it is centred around the 3Ps.
That One Moment!
I constantly preach a message of savings and investment to my children, because I was one of those in my generation who got formal education instead of financial education.

Final words
It’s the last post for this year and I am super excited and sincerely words defy me in explaining my enthusiasm for the new year.
