&lt;b&gt;Who is a Thought leader?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Definition by Wikipedia. &lt;br /&gt;A thought leader can refer to an individual or firm that is recognized as an authority in a specialized field. Whose expertise is sought and often rewarded. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;According to &lt;a href=&quot;http://thoughtleadershiplab.com/&quot;&gt;Denise Brosseau&lt;/a&gt;:Thought Leaders are the informed opinion leaders and the go-to people in their field of expertise. They are trusted sources who move and inspire people with innovative ideas, turn ideas into reality, and known to replicate their success. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-V8BfFCBojS0/Wba61R5JELI/AAAAAAAAA5w/cho7dmgF4og6m2GGKwEA2VIS_A1-15S5gCLcBGAs/s1600/innovative-idea-solution-concept-on-touch-screen-picture-id614975878.jpeg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; data-original-height=&quot;408&quot; data-original-width=&quot;612&quot; height=&quot;213&quot; src=&quot;https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-V8BfFCBojS0/Wba61R5JELI/AAAAAAAAA5w/cho7dmgF4og6m2GGKwEA2VIS_A1-15S5gCLcBGAs/s320/innovative-idea-solution-concept-on-touch-screen-picture-id614975878.jpeg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I quite agree with the above definition. Thought leaders are replicators of success, they do not stop at place,&amp;nbsp; they keep moving and changing other people&#39;s life, bringing in innovative solutions. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;They create a blueprint for people to follow, they provide a process, guidelines or a set of best practices. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;Create a foundation for others to build on or a movement for others to join. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; Within my few years of blogging, I was privileged to meet up online with seasoned and go-to people &quot;thought leaders&quot;&amp;nbsp; I am going to mention few here,&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://neilpatel.com/&quot;&gt; &lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://neilpatel.com/&quot;&gt;Neilpatel&lt;/a&gt;, I respect him for his vigor of writing down long term content,&amp;nbsp; which in turn teaches individuals and firms how to create magnetic sales funnel.&amp;nbsp; His interest is to teach and direct people to success. I recommend him to you if you currently own a business and want to go online. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://backlinco.com/&quot;&gt;Brian Dean&lt;/a&gt; offers a lot on content marketing and how to get&amp;nbsp; targeted traffic to your business blog.&amp;nbsp; His system works best for any individual or a firm that is&amp;nbsp; starting up.

style=&quot;cursor: hand; cursor: pointer; display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;By understanding your financial capabilities, you see that things will become much easier for you.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Following this guidelines, will put you on the map of financial builders:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;1. Uderstanding the difference between a passive income and a linear income. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;PASSIVE INCOME: This type of income, will give you financial freedom. It is a type of income that is generated by practical and systemized networking.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A passive earner can be a business builder, an investor, a networker, a writer or blogger.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;To earn passively, you do not have to put in 100% of your effort, there is a system which does that for you.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;LINEAR INCOME:This type of income is generated by hours and hours of work. If you are not there, no payment. &lt;br&gt;You need your presence to make money.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This type of income earning, is practised by employees and self employed individuals.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;2. Starting or building a business:The best time to start is now. &lt;br&gt;The great business builders, all started with something, they did not just wake up one morning and the money starts flowing.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Start with the little you have, and along the way, you will get all the support and tools you need to succeed.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;You can startup a small business, tend it till it grows to its peak.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Alinko Dangote was once like you, but he burned down his boat, and keep moving forward till he reached his dreams.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Today he is financially free and settled.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;3.Understanding the Numbers:Great business builders, all read the numbers. Learn to have this number in your mind not your heart.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Number in this context, is just a physical cash, understanding how it works, will bring itself to you.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;4.Encourage Savings:To become financially free, you must learn to spend with your mind and not your heart.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The main reason you keep failing to achieve that financial apex, is because you tend to spend more when you are depressed, thinking you will get better after spending.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&quot;The best way to double your money, is to fold it and put it back in your pocket&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;5.Understand the difference between an asset and a liability:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;What is an asset ？&lt;br&gt;An asset, is something that adds to you, multiply or increase your effort in business. E.g Intelligence, investment, land etc.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;What is a liability ？&lt;br&gt;A liability, is anything that takes from you, instead of adding. E.g Family, house, car, and wrong investment.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Do not get webbed by bankers or your lawyer,  telling you to buy a house that it is an asset, that the government will give you a tax break.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Getting a mortage from bank will take from you instead of multiplying.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;6.Understanding the game:Financial game, is a game played by the government to the poor and unlearned.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you know what this game is all about, you will start from today to build your income base.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The name of this game, is called &quot;WHO IS INDEBTED TO WHOM&quot; as state by ROBERT KIYOSKI.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;By knowing who is indebted to whom, you will learn to grow and build a far more better financial system.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I will break it down, the more debt you get into, the more poorer you become. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Try and get loose of debt, and you will see your wealth skyrocketing. But if others are indebted to you, you will as well become richer, that&#39;s the financial game, played by the government.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Conclusion&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Wise people, always think of a way to better their financial situation.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you must become financially free, you must apply this simple rules listed above, and watch your income base grow in real time.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;NB: Do not invest in GET RICH QUICK SCHEME, anything that is fast do not last long.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Take your time, energy, and money to grow the perfect business you have always wanted, and watch it pay you salary for life.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If this article has changed your way of thinking towards financial intelligence, drop your experience and actions towards building your business.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.scopeng.com.ng/feeds/1084533103541729336/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.scopeng.com.ng/2017/08/financial-intelligence.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6171633462919508082/posts/default/1084533103541729336'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6171633462919508082/posts/default/1084533103541729336'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.scopeng.com.ng/2017/08/financial-intelligence.html' title='Financial intelligence'/><author><name>chiemezie Duru</name><uri>https://plus.google.com/110451835874234969273</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh5.googleusercontent.com/-0etg-hZ-GUg/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAA0U/52azGyii5Iw/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-6X4DfT1J8Dk/WY2O2ltiUcI/AAAAAAAAAx0/SKn_lb9vVsUtdBfq6clSYDNhbit7tWs1ACHMYCw/s72-c/%255BUNSET%255D" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6171633462919508082.post-550469317579548953</id><published>2017-08-03T13:40:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2017-08-20T11:07:04.902-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Business"/><title type='text'>Candle Production </title><content type='html'>&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

You have to focus on your goal, day in and day out. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BNWhfMd9JjI/WYSsr3T2ugI/AAAAAAAAAuw/iKlOXGEBWvULyxShWTstYaaAVtoGVtA7gCLcBGAs/s1600/fbgroup.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BNWhfMd9JjI/WYSsr3T2ugI/AAAAAAAAAuw/iKlOXGEBWvULyxShWTstYaaAVtoGVtA7gCLcBGAs/s320/fbgroup.jpg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; height=&quot;205&quot; data-original-width=&quot;550&quot; data-original-height=&quot;352&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;centre&gt;&lt;b&gt; If you want to succeed in any business, follow this simple steps:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/centre&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt; You got to be bold in making decisions. Taking a bold step forward is all you need.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;SMARTNESS: Winning in business, requires you to be smart, be smart enough to create a working plan to grow your business.   Outsmart your competitor, but dont kill the competition.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt; HAPPINESS: If you have to win in business, you must be happy.   One of my mentor said and I quote &quot;Some people will stay happy for 2 to 3days, some 2 to 3 years, but a winner stays happy for 30 years and more&quot;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;NEVER QUIT: It is said that winners never quit, and quitters never win.    You got to be a die hard, if you must succeed in business.   Develop this tenacity to move on no matter what happens and never give up.   People who has reached the climax of success, was once a beginner like you.   NB: Every adversity, brings with it a seed of an equvalent sucess.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;BE HUNGERED: Winning in business, requires you to be hungered.    Hungry to have an outstanding business structure, build a lead and to become successful.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;SELL YOURSELF: For you to win in business, you have to sell yourself first before your business.   Get yourself ready, build on your business skills, and setting aside things that are relevant.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;EXPECT FAILURE: If you are expecting to get it all smoothly, then you are wrong.    You must experience failure, because it is the starting point of success.   Do not allow your failure to break you.   Keep moving forward, till you get there.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;FOLLOW GOD: Many people, has forgotten that God is the ultimate of life.   Do not allow your business to be a barricade with your relationship with God.   If you must win in business, God is hi hi gonna come first, your family is gonna come second, and your business is gonna come last.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;JUST DO IT: Stop making excuses and take a step.    If you are still thinking whether or not to start a business, just do it.    I tell you know, there will be more self made millionaires in Nigeria in 2020.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;   &lt;b&gt;If this article worth something to you, comment your thought.  &lt;/b&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.scopeng.com.ng/feeds/5051690444543588966/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.scopeng.com.ng/2017/08/business-success.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6171633462919508082/posts/default/5051690444543588966'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6171633462919508082/posts/default/5051690444543588966'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.scopeng.com.ng/2017/08/business-success.html' title='Win in business'/><author><name>chiemezie Duru</name><uri>https://plus.google.com/110451835874234969273</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh5.googleusercontent.com/-0etg-hZ-GUg/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAA0U/52azGyii5Iw/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BNWhfMd9JjI/WYSsr3T2ugI/AAAAAAAAAuw/iKlOXGEBWvULyxShWTstYaaAVtoGVtA7gCLcBGAs/s72-c/fbgroup.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6171633462919508082.post-8051449707282829513</id><published>2017-07-28T13:42:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2017-08-20T11:12:21.954-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Online importation mistakes </title><content type='html'>&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot; trbidi=&quot;on&quot;&gt;&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;h1&gt;How to avert  online Importation mistakes&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;Online importation Business is a very lucrative business any youth can start right from home.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tFpgJjJbjW8/WXumU075dxI/AAAAAAAAAtM/3U2AULdFGJIcAyMegRD3sCvodroifKupQCLcBGAs/s1600/%25E6%2588%25AA%25E5%25B1%258F_20170728_110314.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; data-original-height=&quot;441&quot; data-original-width=&quot;800&quot; height=&quot;176&quot; src=&quot;https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tFpgJjJbjW8/WXumU075dxI/AAAAAAAAAtM/3U2AULdFGJIcAyMegRD3sCvodroifKupQCLcBGAs/s320/%25E6%2588%25AA%25E5%25B1%258F_20170728_110314.jpg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;But many youth are afraid to get into this business, because they dont want to loose money,&amp;nbsp; because any slight mistake can cost you a fortune. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;I will teach you how to aviod these mistakes and make your cool cash from it. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Getting started&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;Before venturing into online Importationbusiness, there are×few things you got to get ready for.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;1.
