Old man: This fool jumped off a building and died. What kind of men do we have nowadays? Young man: Stressed ones with minds broken and getting overwhelmed. Old man: in my day we just called that weakness. Young man: ..and took it out on women. Now we look to them for courage

A friend tells me I know how to help folk conceptualize businesses out of ideas. This I know. Offers to give $500 a month for the next 12 months to any idea/businesses in Kenya that reaches out and sounds solid. No strings attached, nothing... ✋ if you think it's worth a shot.

I posted this less than 20 hours ago and I am on 36 calls now. Some friends, some strangers. Folks getting my number from friends. Both guys and girls, some that I don’t know, and some that I know off that look fab online, but are drowning in private. Money is a lot of things,

Why do we still want to look and live like those who committed terrible crimes against us? They took away African human, natural and economical resources, destroyed our culture and our society. Survivers still want to be like the criminals,because they also took away our minds.

Here's what jobs do to you: 1. They give you a sense of stability. 2. They give you a sense of security. 3. They give you a sense of validation for your contribution to the world. 4. They give you an identity. When you loose your job, grieve. It's okay.

About Currency and friends.. If you ask, ask like you are worth it. If you need a loan, say so. If you do not know when you can pay it back, say so. If you need a grant, say so. If you can't ask straight, don't ask. More friendships die on this street than any other..

5 ways to lower your SME overheads in hard financial times. 1. Co-own your internet connection. 2. 4 day work weeks on rotation. 3. Focus on the min customers that give you max revenue. 4. Automate what you can. Use apps, free software, anything. 5.Empower your staff to do more.
