Turn your business into a “technology company” (Part 2) - Strive Masiyiwa

Turn your business into a “technology company” (Part 2). Continued from last week
__What are you waiting for?
I was inspired this week to hear stories from so many of you who are using technology to connect buyers and markets, and, in the process, create income for yourselves. This kind of thinking will really set Africa alight!
One post really caught my attention: “It's through OLX that I’m able to place food on the table for my family. What I just need is to get a wind of it that you want to sell something. I take photos using my phone and post it on OLX. Within a few days your product is gone and I pocket a few coins out of it. So my 'little business' is technology oriented.”
“Wow, wow, wow!!!” was my reply to Ken in Kenya.

RESPONDING TO CHALLENGES

For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.

Proverbs 24:16

In the journey of life challenges will certainly come.
They don’t require your opinion or invitation.
They will come without prior notice. Therefore, live ready for them.
They come as waves on their own not necessarily to hurt, damage or destroy.
While some are swept off and fizzle out with challenges, some others glide over them as if nothing ever happened or ever came their way.
It’s all a matter of attitude, the mind set, mentality and expectations.
You can glide over the waves while some others are swept away by it.
Even if you are ever swept off your feet by the floods of life, you can come over the waters again by the scriptural provision that you will rise again, even after seven times of fall if you ever fell up to seven times!

How to Get and Manage Clients for Your Freelance Writing Business

In Moonlighting on the Internet, internet entrepreneur Shelby Larson presents the most reliable and proven ways you can create an extra paycheck for the short term and establish a continual revenue stream for the long term with your own website. In this edited excerpt, Larson offers her expert advice on which sites might be good for finding freelance writing gigs and how to manage them once you land them.
As a freelance writer, especially a new one, one of the hurdles you have to get past on a fairly regular basis is finding new clients to keep yourself busy and profitable. Although there are a number of mainstream websites that freelancers of all types can frequent to find jobs, such as Elance or Freelancer, here are a handful of sites you can visit to specifically locate freelance writing jobs.
Content Divas
Pros: You get a wide diversity of projects on this site, so you can build a better resume. Writers also get direct access to editors, clients, and a very supportive staff. Writers are paid weekly. There are lots of opportunities for other types of work.
Cons: Jobs pay less than you could get freelancing independently, and writers must accept pay via PayPal, although because they use the mass pay option, contractors don’t pay fees on their incoming payments. It can sometimes be a slow ramp up to regular work until you’ve established yourself as a reliable resource.

HOW TO COMMAND MIRACLE

Anthony C. Nwokolo

HOW TO COMMAND MIRACLE

Every event is invented.
Behind every happening is someone working it out.
Just anyone can work out a Sign (miracle).
All he needs is a rod; Takers of the rod are commanders of Signs and Wonders. Ex.4:17
The rod is the word-(Isaiah11:1; Mic.6:9; mic.7:14).
The rod is meant for stir (display).
Wherever the word is declared, it causes a stir. Luke 23:5; Acts 19:9-12.
The rod puts you in command Ps.110:1-2.
The pool is the Holy Spirit.
The rod is the Word.
At the beginning, the spirit moved and the word was injected into it.
Miracles lie in the belly of the Holy Spirit. It is the declaration of the word that stirs it up.
The word and the Holy Spirit works in a league.
You gather the word through ‘Study” – 11Tim.2:15.
And stir the Holy Spirit through ‘Prayer’ – Jude20.

Turn your business into a "technology company" (Part 1) - Strive Masiyiwa

Turn your business into a "technology company" (Part 1).
The other day I was talking to a friend who runs a fast-moving consumer goods company, or what the experts call an "FMCG" company. He was surprised when I said to him, "I also consider myself to be in the FMCG sector; I discourage my people from seeing our business as a ‘technology’ business.”
"I don't understand what you mean?" my friend said. "I thought you were in the telecoms business; isn't that technology?"
"We sell fast-moving consumer goods. Our products and services (things like ‘airtime’) are for the mass market consumer. We’re no different from Coca-Cola. We’re chasing the same consumer dollars."
Then I added, "Now if you’re a consumer goods company selling bread, you must begin to see yourself as technology company if you want to succeed in today's digital world."
A technology company that sees itself only as a "technology" company will end up losing sight of the customer. And yet almost all businesses must so embrace technology in everything they do that, for all practical purposes, they’re "technology" companies:
__The most successful businesses today (big or small) are those that see themselves as "technology" companies, irrespective of what business they are in!

CAPTURE YOUR NIGHT TO RELEASE YOUR DAY

CAPTURE YOUR NIGHT TO RELEASE YOUR DAY

CAPTURE YOUR NIGHT TO RELEASE YOUR DAY 

Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
Psalm 19:2
What you do with your night determines what becomes of your day.
A good day begins with a good night, just as a poor day begins with a poor night.
Invest in your night and you will earn the dividend of a good day.
Sow into the night and you will reap it in the day.
Capture your night to release your day.
Sleepy eyes will birth slippery hands.
Things easily slip off the hands of those who have sleepy eyes.
Stay awake at night to gain command of the day time.

MAKING A DIFFERENCE

Anthony Chinweugo Nwokolo

MAKING A DIFFERENCE

The real measure of life is the difference it makes.
God intends for us to be different.
He made us to be different
Our difference is our identity and uniqueness.
Our differences creates varieties and colours.
The truth is, If you are not different, you are not needed.
If you are not different, your absence will not be felt.
Your difference is your mark and strength.
Stand different in the way God has made you.

10 Ideas You Must Give Up to Get Paid to Do What You Love

You can do what you love.
You know that, don’t you?
This is not about whether or not it’s possible, but about what’s stopping you from moving forward.
You are built to do what you love, and to thrive doing it.
But you’ve picked up habits that work against you. In order to make progress, you have to let them go.
Here are ten that I’ve noticed in my life, and in the lives of the people I’ve helped:

1. Straight Lines

“You must see your career or vocational path more as a journey with twists and turns rather than a straight line.” – Robert Greene, Mastery

Straight lines are a fantasy. Observe nature. It’s full of twists, turns, and surprises.
The twists and turns are the journey. They are challenges that shape you for what’s to come.
When you want to get paid to do what you love, realize that it takes time. There are many skills to learn, many roads to travel, and many mistakes to be made.
To help navigate these turns, I surround myself with friends and mentors, people who can support me, and help me along the journey.
So let go of the idea that doing what you love has to be linear. Let it be chaotic. And let yourself be led by the nudges of your heart.

I bless you my Lord God, my Heavenly father for blessing me with another year.

I bless you my Lord God, my Heavenly father, my comforter, my helper, my teacher, my saviour, my provider, my protector, my senior partner and my friend for blessing me with another year. I just want to say thank you Lord for the journey thus far. You ve been wonderful and have been faithful all the way. I adore and worship you the Almighty, the all-knowing and the only wise God. Thanks for what you have done, what you are doing and for what you will do. You own me and own all that i own. Accept my thanks giving in Jesus Christ name, Amen!
