3 second challenge


I want you to take three seconds and think…

When is the last time you put something off that you dreamt about doing?

Maybe you want to write a book, hike a mountain, or start a side business and every time you think about doing it you get excited.⠀
⠀
But then, you said "tomorrow" and then months later you still did... NOTHING.

It's important to keep the promises you make to yourself because it's directly correlated with your confidence and how much you value yourself.
⠀
Start taking on challenges that are difficult for you to do.
⠀
But be careful.

Do not lose focus on what you are trying to do. If you do, you’ll grow your negative thoughts and they will start to control your future behaviors.
⠀
If you choose to believe negative thoughts you’ll slowly start to devalue yourself and your dreams. You’ll never get started.

Those thoughts are very powerful. But there’s one thing that will help build confidence and breakdown resistance… action.

We talk a lot about taking action at Rich Dad. Nothing happens without it.

So if you plan to write a book, hike a mountain, or start a business… START!

It doesn’t matter if you feel like it, you won’t. It doesn’t matter if it’s as good as you envision it to be, it’s not.

But over time, it will get better and easier.


To taking action,
Robert Kiyosaki

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

By Strive Masiyiwa  A few weeks ago I went to the doctor. I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time. 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...

Mulolongo is not just a place.

Mulolongo is not just a place. It's a whole syllabus. And deep within its curriculum is a tiny street called Zambarau where meat is sold both day and night. By day, Zambarau is a heaven of nyama. Smoke rises like prayers as meat sizzles on grills. You can find it in stew, dry fry, grilled or even boiled for the toothless. But when darkness announces its arrival, the meat form changes. It’s still meat, yes, but this one is served somewhat raw. Colourful, tender and priced depending on texture, origin, and freshness. The most popular evening meat here is called pig Porko. Everyone in Zambarau street and its tributaries knows pig meat, Porko. It is well supplied, comes in different packages and is available all night till morning. On a certain Friday evening, Katomo walked into Mulolongo feeling like a tycoon. After working for three solid weeks smoothing walls in Kalangaita, the foreman finally remembered him. He was paid a full Ksh 790. Not a coin less. That evening, Kat...
