Some of the courses of business death include these highlighted yet very unidentified business problems that newbie’s doesn’t see.

Too much greed and heedlessness.

Don’t be that kind of entrepreneur that just want MONEY BY ALL MEANS; whether its right or wrong because you will end up cutting your customers just to satisfy your wants. Before you know it; you’ll be the only one willing to deal with your self again.

What I mean here is that; some business owners value money more than their customers and doesn’t care whether their customers are hurt as long as they are making money. This is not suppose to be so.

Your customers are your business; make them happy at all cost, make sure they are satisfied. I guaranty you’ll make money if you can make all your customers happy.

Over investment.

Over investment; Its wrong especially when you don’t have enough experience in the business to invest massive amount of money thinking money makes everything.

Lets go back to the basics of business.

We all know that capital is not the only requirement for a business to succeed. You need more than just money to keep your business, we have good labor; qualified entrepreneur and better location.

Some people are suppressed that they put in millions and yet someone investing thousands in similar business tends to make more profit and expand faster than they do. That just says its money!

One advice on this, make sure you start small; understand the business like no other and then invest more and expand. Starting big with no experience will only lead you to big loss.

Lack of Mentor/Advisor.

We all know what a mentor is; someone who knows better than you do and guides you through the ups and downs of a business similar to one that he has made a great one.

Some people still wonder why they need a mentor; Its not a big deal, I also wondered why I need a mentor until I realized that there are things I can’t see unless someone else point them to me.

Remember, a mentor is someone who has done it before and succeeded. He knows a lot and stepping on his roof top will only make you start as an expert.

If you don’t have a business advisor, I advice you meet one today. He will put you through the hidden secretes of success.

ATTN: I personally struggled with my businesses and till today I’m still struggling; but what differentiates me from others is that I’m still doing my businesses. You need persistence and patience to succeed with your business, so have them.

I wish you all the best, Ahmad Mukoshy.

I guess you’re 2009,  Well I have been waiting for you!  You are the year I’ve planned to be the best of my decade. I’ve big and fully attainable dreams with you if only you’ll give me the chance to eliminate the procrastinating part.

Procrastination has always been a defeat to me, and I feel the pain. I always accomplish at the time when I am no more excited about what I do. But this year, I want to conquer this  barrier and reach out for my dreams when they mean joy and victory to me.

I have been planing for 2009 since around last September. My business, social and personal matters hopefully will all change this year, giving room for my new strategies to flow.

If you do visit this site, then you must have observed a little change on the look of the site. Thats a new year outfit which I have also applied to my other Internet businesses. The new web site look on most of my websites makes it pretty cool for strong business. You know me, I am a business jack!

Let me share with you some of my new plans.

This 2009 I want to hit not less than 3.5 GPA in order to get hold of a 2.0 CGPA.  Lately, I have been more focused with businesses than studies but now I want to give schooling its own share. Besides, I only have 2years to go for my Bachelor’s.

I will also hire additional workforce to help me run my businesses smoothly and effectively without the too much of “you’ve to be there” thing. I believe I can now trust others to do what I mostly kill all my leisures doing!

I also want to take the time to redevelop my home study, because recently I realized that I have retarded my home study skills. Usually, I learn most things on my own in order to build my IQ.

Finally, I want to be happy this year. I want to have some little fun, because I believe in the saying “All work no play makes jack a doll boy”. So, I want to start playing some outdoor games, like basketball because I cant even remember the last time I came close to a ball. Don’t be surprised, I don’t do outdoors!

So thats just my part, even though I have more written that what I wrote here. Would you mind sharing with me your own plans? Let me and my readers see what you think of 2009 and your plans for a whole new beginning.

Just reply by leaving comments.

Do you read books?

Well, during the past two years I developed the habit of reading motivational books; more especially on the entrepreneurial sector.  Though I haven’t read much, I am sure the teachings in these books have an influence on all my past and future successes.

Reading these books didn’t only change the way I see life, but also gave me a clear picture of what plans are and how I could lay down my own blueprints of building my never-ending desires to attain my ultimate goals.

I started reading motivational books back in 2006! And today, I’ve began to realized that my life has completely changed. I now picture this world from a new angle. Above all, I also rejoice the bounty of building my own businesses all from what I learned.

Though I recently joined the crowed, I was thinking it will be of great impact to so many souls if I could just share with you and the rest of my website visitors the power of reading these books.

“I believe; the more you read, the more you acquire an everlasting knowledge.“

See this:

In the hierarchy of my most enjoyed books, I think Robert T. Kiyosaki won the race. In his book Rich Dad Poor Dad, I learned much more than I could ever express! It was in his book that I learned not to ever work for Money.

The second book I always enjoy reading and still keep as my hand book is the Stephen R. Covey’s 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. From this book, I learned all the seven habits that makeup a responsible man and till today, I still practice them.

That book is a never ending blessing to my life as it gives me a perfect understanding of life and all the controls one has over his worldly choices.

Alright, I’ll list the rest of the books as a collection of my third most enjoyed books because none of  them could be rated fourth.

1. Think & Grow Rich – by Napoleon Hill

2. How To Win Friends & Influence People – by Daniel Carnegie

3. What The Rich Invest in… – by Robert Kiyosaki

4. The Cash Flow Quadrant – by Robert Kiyosaki

5. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens – by Sean Covey.

Well, thats all I’ve read for now. But, would you mind sharing with me and the rest of my blog readers the best motivational books you’ve read and how we could benefit from them?

I wait for your response.

Before I proceed, I will like to make it clear that I am not giving you any magical wand that you will swing and see cash but real time strategies you need to master in order to attain your financial goals!

If you want to go online, I will like you to understand that making money on the internet is not different from making money offline! Though research has shown that you may have a wider access to a host of customers and audience than when marketing offline and hence you may tend to make more sales than usual. So, you too should take this report serious!

I will now list and explain the elements you need to acquire, if you want to make a compound cash flow with your business within a short time.

1. Imagination:

Imagination is a power giving to human-beings by God, which gives you the ability to picture in advance that which you desire. Through Imagination, desire is giving a true real shape.

For instance, when you desire to make $1Million and you imagine yourself holding a bank statement written on it $1,000,000.00 you will immediately gain a sensation that will give you an extra energy towards attaining that money! You may have had similar experience before.

The theory of Imagination tells us that “through the aid of imagination, man has been able to conquer more of nature’s forces” An example is the ability to fly in the air without wings (that’s our planes today!).

Like I always quote from my favourite saying; “Imagination is the only real limit to human possibilities”. You can acquire what ever you can imagine with your brain and it’s true!

2. Sincere Desire:

This is often called the starting point of all achievements! When I say “desire”, I don’t mean greediness; but a true passion to possess that which you dream through a legitimate source.

Once you have a sincere passion over what you want to acquire, I tell you the journey towards getting hold of it has just begun. So, ask yourself what you want to acquire with your business!

3. Decision:

You might not know it, but a million other people here in Nigeria might have the same desire and imagination as you, and they are also willing to meet that desire too!

Though, only a few can take the final decision to take action towards their imaginations.

I came to realise that the hardest part of anything is the initial stage which I often call the “inertia”. Have you ever discovered that starting out something is more difficult at its initial stage rather than when you are already committed?

Alright, let me tell you something “That force that is stopping you from getting hold of your desires by taking the immediate action is what we call FEAR! “– Fear is the biggest danger you could ever encounter in your life, because it can stop you from acquiring the greatest bounties of life.

4. Persistence:

When it comes to business or any other thing else, having the keenness to resist hardship and timely crisis is what stop people from attaining the greatest success of all times!

I use to remember a story that will forever be told about a folk who had a land which has been tested full of gold. However, the gold is to be found at thousands of meters in the roots of earth. This man had the desire for the gold, the imagination of holding the gold in real sense and he took the final decision to mine it!

He spent million of dollars trying to reach the gold, but there was no even a sign of it. So, he began to wonder if he will ever reach that gold! Soon he lost his patience and dropped the idea completely.  He then he sold out the land!

The new owner thought of giving the gold mining a try, by continuing from where this folk stopped. To your surprise, the first chop of the ground pulled out gold!

What a loss? The folk left the land when he was few inches to reach the gold because he lost persistence which caused him to loose the gold!

Can you see the cost of impatience? So, what I want you to understand is that “you should always have patience” because business is a long-term process which might be bitter some times, you may even encounter critics and rejection. But do not give up!

5. Go Start Something!

If you have the above 4 personalities, then what are you waiting for? Do you have to wait to finish reading this report before you do something?

I recommend you begin to implement, if possible today. Just do something! Even if it is to acquire the first recipe which is imagination, just start analyzing where you want to land the plane your of future success!

I wish you all the best!
