Persist

Tip number 24 in the book "50 WAYS TO SUCCESS" by Salim Mohammed Kea

Persist

Persistence pays. You can perform great tasks, not by strength, but by perseverance. Try harder, then try harder than that, and consistently work harder until you realize your aim. Don't hesitate or get discouraged at every small rebuff and change from one objective to another because by doing so, you will create yourself a series of difficulties and fail to accomplish anything.
Your competence will result from sustained consistency and self-disciplined effort over an extended period. Even a small stream will curve out for itself abroad deep valley simply by persistently flowing to become a big river.
DO YOU THINK BUSINESS IS TOUGH? 
This short note is to those who think business is tough.
If you think business is tough, then, consider a job.
If you think business is tough, then, you must be thinking there’s something more manageable, right?
But you see, nothing in the world is easy.
What is tough is getting a business education.
Business is not robust; getting business education is the toughest thing.
Most PEOPLE are too lazy to seek business education.
How on Earth do they ever wish to be successful in business?
An untrained soldier is not a soldier, is he?
Get trained. Study business. Read good business articles, tutorials and books. Attend proper business training, and before you know it, the war becomes a game.

Business is a game.
If you love soccer, golf or tennis, you should love business, but you can’t love the game you don’t know its rules, can you?
Business is a game, played for fantastic stakes, and you compete with experts. If you want to win, you have to learn to be a master of the game.
Can you give birth without pregnancy? Can you go through pregnancy without pains? Or can you be pregnant today and give birth for the next three months?
The obvious answers to all the above questions are, NO.
It goes to teach you something serious;
Good things take time, persistence and endurance.
These days I meet people who like to be entrepreneurs (and trust me, I love such people). However, my excitement usually lasts a few minutes after meeting (or talking on the phone) with most of these people.
You know why?
I observe that 19 out of 20 people want to be successful NOW, today.
This is like saying, “I need a child now. I’ll impregnate my wife tonight, and she’ll give birth NEXT MONTH.”
Sounds stupid? Most people’s thoughts are like that.
You may wish to impregnate your wife tonight, and it will not happen until the next nine months.
You may pray that you go through pregnancy without pain, but it won’t happen.
If you pray that your wife gives birth after three months, it’s premature baby you’re asking for.
Good things take time, persistence and focus.
If you want it NOW, then you’re not ready to have it.

Be Curious

Tip number 34 in the book "50 WAYS TO SUCCESS" by Salim Mohammed Kea Be Curious Though it may have killed the cat, curiosity has its reason for existing. Find out! The world belongs to those who do. There is a vast world out there waiting to be explored, and only curiosity can lead you there. Through curiosity, you learn through learning you recreate yourself you become able to do things you never were able to do and extend your capacity to create. Learn something every day, be curious. If it were not for curiosity to discover then many could not have changed their mindsets towards student leaders in schools. I was a leader by birth, and I got the chance to lead in school. Maybe I give out my leadership statistics from primary level to secondary level. I was ever curious to find out how leaders do their things, interact with their subjects and even to know how they do change situations or bring a change. My dear if you haven’t been a leader then my curiosity led

Take Action

Tip number 4 in the book " 50 WAYS TO SUCCESS" by Salim Mohammed Kea To succeed in any way, you first must do something. Big thoughts, bright ideas, yes, but nothing will happen until you put it to action. Your success in achieving what you want in life requires two things, you must know how, and then does it. Inaction in all forms is self-defeat which leads to failure. Your dreams will only come true when you act to turn them into reality. If you don't respond, something terrible happens NOTHING! Today’s success is just like the traffic lights; therefore, if it is a red stop if its yellow pause as you get ready and if its green go ahead the world is yours. Green is freshness; thus, whatever you prepare, you plan to achieve today that’s now gone for it. Although people once said your dream is someone else’s occupation. Yes, it is true, but everyone is talented differently using different potentials take a unique action, and you will move far. Let only the

CAMPUS: AN EARTHLY PARADISE.

“The story of determination and diligence.” Would you not want to listen to story with such a caption? Captivating; gets you adjusting your position of rest, captures your attention and you give it that smile hoping for a story well told and you settle to give it that perfect read. The story betters with every line. Before you know it, you are absorbed into the story; eyes glued, only rolling from one end of a line to other, the head as motionless as a tree. Well, you might ask what all the determination and diligence is all about given that you are not actually reading the story(with the fact that you are reading this article in assumption). The determination story is a that of a pupil. A pupil in primary school. The pupil works hard, does well in the final examinations and books a slot in a good secondary school. That is success enough; but out of passion, determination and diligence, more follows. The student (our pupil approximately a year ago), is now in high school thus a student
