PASSION vs. MONEY

What do you enjoy doing? What do you do that when you are not paid you really don’t care much because you have received your reward already; the ability to do what you enjoy doing? When what you enjoy doing is compared to the task of playing a game; a game you know is fun […]

4 INDUCTIVE LESSONS LEARNT FROM SEASONED ENTREPRENEURS

When it comes to business, it appears to most guys I interact with that I am a totally different person from whom they socialize and laugh with; these guys (especially babes) believe that I have built an alter ego which is totally different from who I am. I can see the shock and unbelief on […]
