                    START FROM WHERE YOU ARE WITH WHAT YOU HAVE


                Your greatest enemies are fear, unbelief, and procrastination. They have murdered many

               dreams than you ever can imagined. Many people are waiting for the right time, a robust

               economy, a big capital, a perfect location, and a huge customer base before they start;
               and up till now, they are still waiting. They stay there on a spot, waiting and wasting

               away.  If  you  have  decided  to  stop  submitting  CVs  and  do  something  for  yourself,  go
               ahead and begin all at once. The dream will not happen except you do something about

               it, I mean right now. Do not wait for fair weather, it may not come. The best time to start
               is not next week, next month, next year or the next pay day, the best time to start is now.

               The best place to start is right there, where you are, with whatever you have. Do not be a

               dreamer, be a doer.

                Do not wait till you have big opportunities, take advantage of the small opportunities
               around you. Do not wait till you are able to save big money or win a jackpot, it may not

               happen that way, start small. It does not matter if your beginning is small, if you are
               committed  to  a  steady  growth,  you  will  achieve  your  dreams  and  become  one  of  the

               giants in your line of trade. Do not despise starting small; the way up is down. Growth is

               a 'bottom-top' approach. The only thing that goes from up to down is the grave. If you
               choose that approach, you will end up burying your dreams.


                Resources are always limited, therefore, be wise. Your immediate need is not money, it is
               an idea. You need a brilliant idea and a clear mental picture of the way you want to go.

               That is vision! Once you have the vision, seeking and getting provisions for it will not be a
               problem. It is safer to start with a vision, and then, seeking provision, than have the

               provision, and seeking vision. Vision attracts provisions, but when you reverse the order,
               you will attract prohibitions and numerous reasons not to start. Money is essential, but

               secondary. You may not get all you need, but you can always get something to start off.
               You can make personal savings, sell off an asset, talk to a friend or family member or

               leverage on other resources to get the take-off capital. Just open your mind wide and
