The truth forever remains that you are your greatest friend or enemy. When people are against you, you must learn to be for you. When people are pulling you down, you must learn to pull yourself up. 

You are you worst enemy when you do not believe in yourself. Be your greatest cheerleader. When things are going against you, learn to give yourself a pep talk. 

I have encountered times in my life when things were so bad and I was so confused but I had to calm myself down and controlled my mind and gradually things began to turn green for good.

Learn to take charge of your mind and everything will gradually fall into pleasant places.

Be your best friend by telling yourself truth, no matter how hard it may be.

I wish you all the best.

Yours in life betterment,

So many people live in the illusion that when they get to the top that everything will be easy and rosy but on getting to the top, it is not really what they thought. The freedom myth is the mentality that when you get to the top, that you are no longer limited - no more problems, worries or someone to answer to.

Some folks have a wrong idea about leadership. They see it to be a ticket to an easy life, the magic that will make them popular, solve all their needs and problems, but when they finally get to the top, they are surprised that it is not how they pictured it.

If you have been at the top in an organization - family, school, workplace, church, etc., you will agree with me that the top is not a bed of roses. There's a saying that, "Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown." The truth is that when you move to the top of the leadership ladder in any organization, your responsibility increases. As you rise higher, more is expected of you. At this stage, you cannot live or do things anyhow, the impact of your actions and inactions are very glaring.

Leaders who truly want to make positive difference don't sleep at the top, they wear their thinking caps, looking for ways to fulfill their mandate and leave great legacies. The top is not crowded because at this stage, more is required of you.

The essence of this treatise is not to scare you from aiming for the top but to get you set for the challenges that comes with being at the top. The best way to prepare for the top, handle it demands efficiently and effectively is by taking the initiative and responsibility to improve yourself today. Self-improvement is one of the greatest investment you can make because it's ROI (return on investment) is life-enriching. The best time to get ready for tomorrow is today...no more delay. See you at the top!

I remain yours truly,

Leadership is basically leading people from where they are to where they should be; this demands influence. When you call yourself a leader and no one is following you, you are just taking a walk.

There are things or qualities that people want to see in someone that leads them or want to lead them. The truth is that these qualities may not be in-born but they can be learner and developed.

Here are some qualities that will make people to follow you:

1. People want to see CONVICTION in you.

2. People want to see a sense of COMMITMENT in you.

3. They want to see CHARACTER in you.

4. People want to feel CONNECTION with you.

5. They want to see COMPASSION in you.

6. They want to feel CONFIDENCE in you.

7. They want to see COMPETENCE in you.

8. They want to see CONSISTENCY in you.

9. People want to see COURAGE in you.

You must lead yourself right before you lead others because it is only when you know they want that you can show others the way.

I call these qualities the C-Suite of leadership. If you can develop and improve yourself in them then people will form comradeship with you and together a great community is built.
