I guess I have had different dispensations (what Christians call Chairos) in my life time but a great turning point took place during Job Hunting days – I was led by the Holy Spirit to buy a book by Miles Munroe called “Burden Of Freedom”. This book totally changed my life and led me to […]
I wrote this article like 7 years ago – enjoy! The popular Apongbon Bridge in Lagos that links the Island to the Mainland is usually dilapidated despite constant repairs by the government. The bridge is also crammed with beggars and hawkers scrounging car owners for money or exchange of goods for money as the traffic […]
What assurance do I have that if I pass my PMP exam, I will get a job? Can you assure me that if I train with you I will pass the exam? What assurance do I have that if I switch career to Project Management, I will become a global player earning all the fat […]

The easiest way to detect that your love is waxing cold towards your partner is tolerance; tolerance is simply going against your inner desire. It is actually worse than “hate” because in the case of “hate”; you have resolved your feelings towards your partner. It’s either you are hot or cold; white or black or […]
I was recently invited to a bank retreat to share on Project Management. The Credit Analysis department sponsoring the retreat wanted me to demystify Project Management in 2-hours so their staffs could adequately and effectively communicate with their vendors. Since the financial aspect went well during negotiations, I did not immediately envision the task ahead […]
For the past week, I have been getting calls and emails from guys who want more out of life rather than the 8-6, Mon-Fri, work cycle; I could detect frustration and hopelessness in their voice viz-a-viz the emails. I have been in this position several times in my life while in paid employment and most […]
