The most critical skill a vision carrier must master is the ability to navigate the quagmire of hypocrisy, discouragement and self seeking selfishness disguised under the canopy of "friendship" and "concern".  She also needs the alertness to steer clear of the sand dunes of dream killing and mediocre detractors whose complete mentality is to bring others down to their limit; the barest floor. A vision carrier must be as gentle as a dove, but as cunning as a serpent in order to carry their dream to full term. I will say this again and again. You have to be extremely careful about the people you allow into your innermost circle. The ones you allow to have an influence on you, your goals and your plans. The ones you tell your dreams to. Some are only there and appear to support you as long as you don't try anything big or glorious. Try anything that intimidates their mediocre mentality and they will discourage you! Stay away from fair weather friends. Guard your s...

We spend so much time building walls and security doors instead of bridges and open doorways. We bottle up love and gratitude instead of expressing them and we waste time apart from loved ones instead of spending time celebrating the gift of love and companionship. We strive so hard to conform and blend in when we were made to stand out and be different. Life is finite and may pass in an unnoticeable moment. So live fully today. Stop putting off your dream and start today. Quit being shy and tell that person how you feel today. Make that call right now. Write that letter and mail it today. Don't put off life any longer. You won't live forever, so treasure this very moment. Live well, love God and live now. ~Doc Sam Tinagyei #MandateLife #JollofLife Ps. don't put of sharing this post either.

This morning I received some notifications from Facebook about activity on my wall and amongst them was a part labelled "memories on this day". As you have also noticed, it is basically a collection of things you posted on your wall on the same day in previous years. Gradually, this has become one of my favorite parts of the notifications for the simple reason that, it shows me what I was thinking and what i felt was important to share last year and previous years on this same day. I have taken this instruction; Before you update, comment or post anything on social media, especially Facebook, ask these questions; 1. Will I be proud to reshare, repost or allow people to associate me to this post a few years down the line? 2. What does my posts say about my values and my development as a person? Like I keep reiterating, social media is serious business and the internet never forgets. So before you post, PAUSE, READ and THINK! Enjoy the new month and keep making a differ...

Hey, want to know one of the best pieces of advice ever given? It is this: Don't compare yourself to others. As simple as that. It is truly unwise to do so . Apart from the very fact that you are completely unique and special by yourself, most people are so good at pretending that, they wouldn't even recognize their own true selves if they met at the mall. So in effect, comparing yourself with them is comparing yourself with a completely unrealistic fictional character that only exists in your assumptions and in their pretenses. You see? Totally not worth it. Be yourself and be the best version of you. See you on the top. PKT

In a world of nasty and pretentious people, being a nice person isn't a very safe thing. However If you choose to continue to be a "nice" person, at least draw a line at a point. Most people will try to take advantage of you. It is human nature. Pick your friends very carefully and do not be too quick to offer assistance without a clear understanding of the situation and consequences thereafter. Instead of spreading your love thin, focus on those who have demonstrated a true commitment to your happiness and double down on them. Reward their love and support with copious helpings of your own attention and affection. Systematically reduce the time and energy you spend on those who only take from you. Those who don't bother to talk to you or check up on you. Don't believe their excuses. For every time they spend unconcerned about you, they spend with those who actually mean something to them. Don't ask for an explanation. Actions speak louder than words anyway. Y...

For the best parts of our lives, most of us are advised to go to school, study hard, pass and get a good job with a good salary. This advice was all we needed in the industrial age. When the world changed and the rules of money were rewritten, the memo to change our mindsets in relation to money was somehow lost in transit. Today, the rich teach their kids to get financially intelligent, start and run big business and invest in appreciating assets. The poor still teach their kids to look for a good job and a good salary. The rich teach their kids to make money work for them, whiles the poor still work for money. This is one of the most significant reasons the poor get poorer and the rich get richer. PKT #BookAddict #SmartMoney

Most of us have stayed in neighborhoods for a while now and yet have not ventured 5 houses on either side of our houses before. Others have taken the same route to work for over 5 years, and have never tried another route before. Most of us have not spoken to over 50% of the people on our contact lists in the last six months. Some people have never struck up a conversation with a fellow passenger on a bus before. We have been numbed by our daily routines. We look without seeing, touch without feeling and listen without hearing. We have become tuned off and disconnected. It is only about us, our work and our families. We are living and yet have never really lived a day before. Slow down once in a while and smell the flowers. Listen to the sounds around you and allow the wind to blow in your face. Enjoy all God has made. Instead of just enduring life and merely going through the motions, decide to live fully and bigly. PKT #BookAddict #MandateBooks

Many people say they want this and that. They want to achieve that goal and that dream. But most people do not achieve them? Why? I strongly believe most people do not have WHAT IT TAKES to make their dreams come true. I keep saying that, life will not give its treasures to just anyone who is along for a ride. Wealth will not come to you just because you want it. No sir! Expecting life to treat you better just because you are here is just like expecting a lion to spare you because you are a vegetarian. It won't happen. Ask all the people who are enjoying any measure of success and they will tell you; Yo got to want it bad enough to enjoy it long enough! Come on, lets go. - PKT

GRATITUDE. That single element that makes everything possible. It is the oil that lubricates the wheel of success in our lives. Lets make today a GRATITUDE DAY. Say Thank you to the driver who dropped you at work. Appreciate the driver's mate who opened the door for you to get in and out of the bus. Say thank you to the security guard who opened the door for you. Show gratitude to the waakye seller who makes it possible for you to have a #WaakyeWednesday. It does not matter if they are just doing their jobs or they treat you badly. It is not about them, it is about you. It is about you being AWESOME today. I appreciate you for reading my posts everyday. Thank you for liking and sharing and thanking. PKT
