The of For Business owners and investors... How to Conquer Your Fears and Take Smarter Risks..

Risk equals reward. And the bigger the risk taken, the bigger the chance for a larger payout.

As entrepreneurs, we’re used to being questioned about everything we do. Perhaps it’s one reason we became entrepreneurs in the first place — to prove that we’re better off doing whatever everyone else thinks we shouldn’t. In fact, you could argue that being an entrepreneur is less about building a business and making money, and more about having the power to shape your own destiny.

Risk equals reward. And the bigger the risk taken, the bigger the chance for a larger payout. When Christopher Columbus risked his life and that of many others to complete his first voyage across the sea to the unknown, his journey led to a great wealth of knowledge and commerce for Europe. When Soviet Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin traveled to outer space, he opened up a whole new age in space travel and exploration for the rest of the world.

They all took enormous risks, and many questioned their decisions. But each time, the reward was huge.

I failed in my first business in Rwanda after investing Millions... Am working on the second after a big risk but with great lessons learned).

Of course, risk-taking is only as good as the amount of planning and thought put into taking it. Blind risk-taking is never a good idea.

Don’t be afraid of failure. Failure is necessary. Society tells us to fear it, but none of us would be where we are if we hadn’t failed. We all make mistakes; we all fail at something at some point. But changing how we think of failure is key.

Failure creates opportunity — the more we fail, the quicker we learn, and the more of a chance we have the next time to do something the correct way. Not to mention that without failure we wouldn’t enjoy our successes as much. Rather than fearing failure, be excited that with it, you are one step closer to achieving your goals.

Calculate the risks. Blind risks rarely, if ever, turn out well. It’s like randomly penciling in answers on a multiple-choice test that you never studied for — by probability alone, there is a fat chance you’ll achieve a high enough score to pass. But if you at least gave those questions some thought, you would have a much better shot. The same thing goes for starting a business. Launching one is always a huge risk, but you are better off doing your research first and calculating your risks than walking the high wire with no net to support you if you fall.

If you're an investor, take the risk and invest in a startup that has potentials instead of investing 10k start with 3k. Don't fear risk ...minimise the risk...

Was privileged to share the panel session on "startup contributing to economic growth" with Global investment experts at the Annual Investment Meeting .

A man created a zoo and fixed the price of the ticket at 3000 FCFA, no one came.

He reduced to 2k, no one came.

He put 1k no one still came.

Finally, he said free entry, the next 1 hour the zoo was full of people.

Discreetly, he closed the door and opened the lion cage 🦁 and set the exit price at 5k, in 30 min, everyone paid to be able to leave the zoo.

lesson learned:
1- When nothing works in life, do not change your goals but rather change your strategy.

2- You have to be wary of free offers or services without any effort, they very often hide things that can harm your life.
3- If the offer is free, you are the product 😀.

NB: when we say free, it means that someone has to pay the price...

A unique opportunity to get an insight of the performance, drivers and risk implications of today's investment ecosystem.

Evaluate different approaches to equity portfolio management and investment opportunities. If you want to keep a long lasting legacy for your siblings and generation this is a must attend master class.

2 heures de conversation fructueuse et de conseils avec Diko Mukete, conseiller spécial du ministre des Finances du Rwanda..
Merci beaucoup pour l'accueil chaleureux monsieur.

To be a motivational or Inspirational speaker....this is a long time career you have to nurture and mature....your action should speak for itself ....
..the inspiration or motivation you are giving to someone should be first of all seen in you...

How can a hungry man motive or inspire another hungry man..or inspire or motivate someone who is not hungry..

Don't be a motivational or Inspirational speaker only in literature .....but in ACTION.

How it all started, 17 years ago . In the beginning was the vision and the vision is still in him ..is all about vision, determination and resilience...

-----------------
Comment tout a commencé, il y a 17 ans. Au début était la vision et la vision est toujours en lui... c'est une question de vision, de détermination et de résilience...

A father said to his daughter “You have graduated with honors, here is a car I bought many years ago.
It is a bit older now but before I give it to you, take it to the used car lot downtown and tell them you want to sell it and see how much they offer you for it.

The daughter went to the used car lot, returned to her father and said, “They offered me $1,000 because they said it looks pretty worn out.”

The father said, now “Take it to the pawn shop.” The daughter went to the pawn shop, returned to her father and said,”The pawn shop offered only $100 because it is an old car.”

The father asked his daughter to go to a car club now and show them the car. The daughter then took the car to the club, returned and told her father,” Some people in the club offered $100,000 for it because it’s a Holden Torana and it's an iconic car and sought by many collectors”

Now the father said this to his daughter, “The right place values you the right way,” If you are not valued, do not be angry, it means you are in the wrong place. Those who know your value are those who appreciate you. Never stay in a place where no one sees your value.

WHAT IS YOUR VALUE??

Never post your achievements
Post stupid and silly stuff ...so they will think you have no future
People hate progress ...

That's why stupid stuff go viral than useful stuff..

----------------

Ne publiez jamais vos réalisations
Publiez des trucs stupides... pour qu'ils pensent que vous n'avez pas d'avenir
Les gens détestent le progrès...

C'est pourquoi les trucs stupides deviennent viraux plutôt que les trucs utiles.

Your family doesn't know how much difficulties and pressure you go through in your daily life or in your job. And your work doesn't know the circumstances of your life and your home.

Your colleagues, your friends and loved ones will not understand the size of the new and old responsibilities that are above you.

Bottom line nobody feels for you but yourself. No one will understand what you're really going through and they most likely don't appreciate efforts.

Just keep on keeping on... Fight... take care of yourself 🥹😢🥺

Fruitful conversation with my friend and partner.. Anan Zen von Kanaan Chargé d'affaires at Israel au Cameroun Discussions centered on Israel Cameroon Cooperation with focus on the 6th Edition of the Israel Cameroon HITECH seminar with great innovation this year.

LOVE AND COMPASSION

This painting of a young woman breastfeeding an old man in a prison cell was sold for Euros 30 million. The painting may look perverse but the story behind is from historical records.

The poor man was sentenced to "death by starvation" for stealing a loaf of bread during the reign of Louis XIV in France. The woman was his only daughter and the only visitor to his cell. She was allowed to visit him daily but was frisked thoroughly such that no food was taken in.

When after 4 months the man still survived with no weight loss, the authorities were perplexed and started spying on her in the cell and to their utter astonishment found her to breastfeed her father to the fullest sharing her baby's milk. The judges then realizing the compassion and love of the woman for her father, pardoned the father and set him free.

Thank you all for your amazing birthday messages .
