Secret Of Riches


1) Wishing will not bring riches. But desiring riches with a state of mind that becomes an obsession, then planning definite ways and means to acquire riches, and backing those plans with persistence which does not recognize failure, will bring riches.

2) If you do not see great riches in your imagination, you will never see them in your bank balance. If the thing you wish to do is right, and you believe in it, go ahead and do it!

3) Awake, arise, and assert yourself. Your star is now in the ascendency. The world is filled with an abundance of opportunity which the dreamers of the past never knew.

4) You have been disappointed, you have undergone defeat during the Depression, you have felt great heart within you crushed until it bled. Take courage, for these experiences have tempered the spiritual metal of which you are made – They are assets of incomparable value.

5) There is a difference between wishing for a thing and being ready to receive it. No one is ready ofr a thing until he believes he can acquire it. The state of mind must be belief, not mere hope or wish.

6) Remember, no more effort is required to aim high in life, to demand abundance and prosperity, than is required to accept misery and poverty.

7) All achievement, not matter what may be its nature, or its purpose, must begin with an intense, burning desire for something definite.

Take care of yourself__"The first wealth is health".

By Strive Masiyiwa  A few weeks ago I went to the doctor.

We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone. And yet as I reflected on it, and later discussed it with a doctor friend who knew him, I realized he was very laid back about his health despite having a hectic business life. Even during our dinner...

Freedom: The One Thing Gaddafi Could Not Give — And the One Thing No Government Can Take Away

For years, the collapse of Libya under Muammar Gaddafi puzzled many observers across Africa and the world. How could a country with high living standards, generous state programs, and a strong economy turn so swiftly against a leader who appeared to have delivered materially for his people? This question is not just about Libya. It speaks to a deeper truth about governance, legitimacy, and the limits of developmental authoritarianism. It speaks to Africa’s political future. And it speaks directly to the crossroads at which Kenya now finds itself. --- The Libyan Paradox: Prosperity Without Liberty Before the 2011 uprising, Libya’s economic and social indicators were strikingly strong for the region. Gaddafi’s Libya boasted: Free education Free healthcare Subsidized housing Cheap fuel High employment An extensive welfare system These were not myths. The United Nations Human Development Index (HDI) of 2010 ranked Libya 53rd in the world and first in Africa. Even today, that ranking stands...
