LESSONS FROM "DARK WORLD SERIES"

Never let anyone deceive you.

No work is without a customer to serve,

No business runs without a VISION to catch,

Dream big, start small.

To be successful; you need to have these:

1. Access to the right information.

2. Know how, when and where to apply the information.

3. Take massive action with the information, you got.

4. Action is not enough; taking repeated actions with the information you got, is what gives you success.

Never neglect your small start. No one get into the BIG without building a FOUNDATION.

Let me warn you, never venture in any business because many are earning from it or your friends are doing it. It may favour them not you.

BLOGGING is favouring me but COMEDY can't favour me. MR GIFTOLOGY is benefiting hugely from COMEDY but not successful in BLOGGING.

Know where you belong, know what you can do without stress and reminder. Follow your heart.

Read books and reduce your time for fun.

At my early teens and 20s; relationship without spending on pleasures or taking your girlfriend out is not a RELATIONSHIP but boring one for that matter.

I am not saying you shouldn't do it if you want to.

I focus on myself, my future.

I spend time building myself and planning for my unborn children.

Now! Are you going to tell me that "am on the wrong path - No".

The midnight toil is working, God's grace and mercy is working.

A time will come in my 30s or mid 20s; when others will be working 7-8 hours to earn a living, I will be spending my time on maintaining and growing and expanding my business. I will leverage on others' time, knowledge and energy.

What will I be doing?

Managing and enjoying with my wife and children. Dining with politicians, meeting successful & wealthy entertainers, feeding families that can't provides for themselves (investing in charities), giving scholarships, sponsoring talents and skillfuls.

So, you see me working like a poor man today is because I want to :

1. be in a glass house tomorrow

2. have 3 private jets tomorrow

3. own 50 expensive luxury cars tomorrow

4. sponsors talents tomorrow

5. invest hugely in human & charities tomorrow

6. travel to 172 countries out of 196 countries before I reach 70 years.

7. retire at 55 years from my company and keep building more businesses with management set my me

8. gives hope and scholarships to many

9. live long and happily.

Remember, we all have long way to go but short time to life. Don't waste your time doing nothing.

Don't let religion, partner, age, education, family, friends, tribe, language to derive you from achieving your goals.

Put GOD first and love to be in his presence always.

Regularly read your BIBLE, QURAN or TORAH - if you are a CHRISTIAN, MUSLIM or JEW.

One thing to tell, before I continue;

your father can't make you a billionaire. Having a wealthy father or mother only drop you on millionaires lists.

So you still have more works to do and grow daily.

Adeleke only make Davido a millionaire but Davido is a billionaire.

Hardwork and determination made Davido so.

Same to Dangote, same to DJ Cuppy, same to Bill Gates to his children, same to Linda Ikeji to her son and me to my children.

My wealth can only make my 4-children millionaires but can't land them on billionaires lists. They have to use their millions to have themselves on billionaires ranking in their field, in Africa, in Rivers State, in Nigeria.

What is your VISION?

If you don't have a vision in life, you are living for nothing.

It is beter to die for something, than to live for nothing.

Take responsibility, be responsible in life.

If you don't sit down today, you can't stand up tomorrow.

Knowledge alone can't take you anywhere, it is applying the knowledge rightly that's is WISDOM.

You need WISDOM to excel in life.

Let me change you a bit:

the saying "You don't need anyone to succeed" ---

Hmmm! Do you live in that?

That's why you are poor.

You need a mentor to be tutored.

You need people to patronize you to make a living.

You need a life partner to be emotionally, sexually, socially and otherwise stable in life.

You need to build connections, pray for big breaks to be so rich.

You need a team to build a strong wealthy empire.

You need a family to be complete.

You need a friend or more to spend less time together.

You need me, I need you to achieve my or your goals.

So, Why don't you need someone to do something or to be somebody.

You need a doctor, you need a lawyer or more to mention......

Build on yourself, walk alone until you finds that one person that want to walk with you to be successful and happily married.

Most people get this wrong;

Learn from my WORDSDOM:::

1. No matter now expensive a Lamborghini will cost, someone will pay to have it - TRUE

2. A cheap product (be it human, houses, market, services, etc) will attract more customers to it and will make it's owner to be misbehaving - TRUE

So, no matter how many people rushing you as a man or lady; make them your acquaintance not friends. Love your partner and do not cheat because guys or ladies are after you.

As a lady, when guys are after you. You though you are beautiful to have and keep, sorry you are beautiful to taste after one sex - your sugar is out! Be wise.

Some men don't want to marry you, they just want to collect their GLORY (share of having sex with you) and you become a history.

That poor boy that is building his vision and loving you fully. learn to love him back and work on your vision - marry him if he ask you out. Because at your 50 - 60 years in life with him as your husband and true father to your children; you will be the one thanking him for choosing you.

Life is mysterious, Same to men.

3. A house build with years can be burned down in minutes - TRUE

4. Education is the key to success - FALSE

Education is not the key, it is the key holder to success. There are others keys that you need to succeed but education first. So education is the key holder.

I, DIDI-OMAH AUGUSTINE CHINAZAEKPERE is never surprise at my level in education, business, finances and relationship with others.

I would have been suprise if I didn't get at the top or I failed.

Before building doacinvest.org; I read(red) many books, make researches. In blogging, I step into blogging as a man with 50 years experience due to the books, I was exposed to. And we are making progress and growing; currently live in 125 countries with 80 countries active on doactalk.com.

The books you read determine your lifestyle and your future.

The association you keep tell where you will be 3-5 years time.

I graduated with UPPER CLASS CREDIT in Department of Computer Science, Federal Polytechnic Ekowe Bayelsa State during my OND Program.

Am not the best students but among the best. I know I can't be the best in education also can't be the failed type in education.

Many people said they have tried all they know still slow progress or not achieving their goal, yes they tried.

But they have to know more to go far. What keeps you ahead is what is in your head not certificate at hand.

I want to own a supermarket; is not about having the BIG VISION OF RUNNING A SUPERMARKET. 

Is not about thinking and wishing: If wishes were horses beggers would have ride on.

Is about working and sacrificing to achieve it.

In building your supermarket, have you study on;

1. requirements needed to run a supermarket successfully.

2. location that is profitable for your supermarket.

3. numbers and types of staffs needed.

4. how much will it takes you to keep the supermarket active and profitable.

5. years needed to succeed in the business.

If it is to run with it for a year or two or three before setting another; if you want to. Take it and make it works.

You can't be what you want to become by giving excuses and not working hard to achieve it.

When I see people getting JEALOUS of me; I tell my children - don't assure anyone what you can't accomplish it kills, help with love and not with expectation it lead to disappointment, work hard, pray, make peace with your past, build trust by keeping to your promises no matter what, marry who your heart chooses, keep the commandments of GOD, worship your creator in truth, worship your creator in spirit and deeds not by words alone, read right books, build good association, invest in charities, be truthful, be honest, be watchful and be humble - these are what makes me SUCCESSFUL.

Me and my father do have issues when I was pursuing my dreams, all his words of threats - Now he is proud of me.

I follow my dream, I am ADDICTED to my dream and ALLERGIC to dramas.

Plan your life, budget your days and making sure you complete your mission according to your plan and budget.

You can't be Rivers Governor by just dreaming, you must work it out. Active nights, busy days, meeting people in helm of society, reaching to non political and political bodies, spend funds and donating to get attention.

So, nothing comes easy not even being a mother.

Comparison is a game of fools. Anyone that get into it looses at last.

Don't compare your lifestyle, family, relationship, children, business or anything to someone's own.

Be raging competition between your YESTERDAY and TODAY not with someone. Try to improve your life and business, improve your family & relationship, improve your education and financial status.

Don't kill the competition in business but don't venture into WHAT YOU CAN'T COMPLETE or COMPETE with.

Do that which makes you happy, invest in charities, give back to those who made you, love your partner as yourself and treat your business smartly.

Love to LEARN, RELEARN and UNLEARN to be able to EARN, RE-EARN and KEEP EARNING.

When you stop to learning, you start failing.

When you do what SUCCESS demands even the DEVIL will favour you.
