Education / 20 Habits For Success,i Learned From Two Billionaire by darex1: 11:18am On May 23, 2015 |
20 Habits for Success I Learned Working for Two Billionaires by Paul C. Brunson I have spent decades “being educated” — in college, graduate school, numerous professional certifications, and now a Ph.D. program. All of that schooling and training helped shape the person I am today, but at no point in my life has there been a more profound education than my time working for Enver Yucel and Oprah Winfrey. Enver and Oprah are two extraordinary people. And on top of that, they’re both billionaires. On the surface, they appear to be totally different people. They are in different industries, have different family structures, practice different religions, and speak different languages. However, once you get past their written biographies and dig deeper, you will notice they possess many of the same successful habits. I had the opportunity to work with both Oprah and Enver for six years collectively and those were, hands down, the best professional experiences of my life. I worked my ass off for them and in doing so absorbed everything I could. It’s my honor to share with you what I learned from them. Here are the 20 successful habits I learned working for two billionaires: 1) Invest in Yourself This is a very simple concept, but something you would think someone who has “made it” would stop doing. Not at all for these two. I saw them both spend a significant amount of time dedicating their resources to self- development (whether it be a new language, exercise, social media classes, etc.). The moment you stop investing in yourself is the moment you have written off future dividends in life. 2) Be Curious… About Everything What the average person sees as mundane or overly complicated is not viewed the same way with a billionaire mindset. I once had a 30 minute conversation with Enver about the height of the curbs in Washington DC versus Istanbul, Turkey. Billionaires are incredibly curious; what the rest of the world thinks is a problem and complains about — that’s what these people go and work on. 3) Surround Yourself With “Better” People I hope this is why they kept me around. Seriously, I never knew my bosses to keep anyone less-than-stell ar in their inner circle. There were many times I thought to myself, “Damn, they have dream- teams built around them.” Jim Rohn had it right, “You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.” 4) Never Eat Alone The last time I had dinner with Enver, as well as the last time I ate dinner with Oprah, there were easily 15 people at our tables, respectively. Coincidence? While most of us derive our key information from blogs or the newspaper, power players get their information from the source (other power players), directly. However, just because you can’t call up the Obamas and break bread with them doesn’t mean eating with others in your circle doesn’t carry value. In one of my favorite reads of the last few years called Never Eat Alone, author Keith Ferrazzi breaks down how you can identify “information brokers” to dine with you. I’ve seen first hand how enormous the benefits are of this strategy. 5) Take Responsibility for Your Losses I was working for Oprah during the time she was taking heat from the media about poor network ratings. I was also working for Enver during the closing of one of his prized divisions. What I witnessed them both do in response was powerful. Opposed to covering the losses up with fancy PR tactics, both stepped to the stage and said in essence “I own it and I’m going to fix it” and dropped the mic. Guess what? They sure did fix things (It’s widely noted Oprah’s network is realizing ratings gold and Enver’s assets have probably doubled since the division closing). 6) Understand The Power Of “Leverage” This is something that was quite a shock to me. From afar, a billionaire appears to be someone who is a master at everything. But, in truth, they’re specialists in one or a few areas and average or subpar at everything else. So, how do they get so much done? Leverage! They do what they do best and get others to do the rest. Here’s a great article on leverage. Keep in mind I see this done with wealthy people and their money all of the time — they use OPM (other people’s money) for most or all of their projects. 7) Take No Days Off (Completely) I recall going on vacation with Enver several times, yachting up and down the southwestern coast of Turkey (also known as the blue voyage). Sounds ballerific, right? No doubt we had a great time, but mixed in with all that swimming and backgammon was discussion of business, discussion of strategy, planning and plotting. The best way I can describe this habit is thinking about your business or your idea like your literal baby. No matter your distance, you don’t stop thinking of him/her (and after just having a second son, I can attest to this). Focus On Experiences vs. Material Possessions When you have money, your toys are big. However, the vast majority of money I saw spent on their “leisure” was on actual experiences versus the typical car, jewelry, and clothes we’re familiar with seeing in music videos and gossip blogs. I recall one time at dinner with Oprah, I spotted a table of about 20 girls off to the side. I later found out Ms. Winfrey was treating some of her graduating girls from her school in South Africa to dinner in NYC. Experiences create memories, and memories are priceless. 9) Take Enormous Risks This is another one of those successful habits every entrepreneur can attest to. A matter of fact, Entreprenuer.co m created a great infographic outlining commonalities of the world’s billionaires and one of the most prominent was this characteristic: billionaires are not adverse to risk. What intrigues me even more about Enver and Oprah was that even at their high financial status and success level, they still possessed a willingness to risk their most precious asset (their name and legacy) on new and bolder projects. If you’re not taking risks, you’re not making moves! 10) Don’t Go At It Alone Nothing great in life is achieved alone. Especially in business, success isn’t a solo act. This character trait is akin to “surrounding yourself with better people.” It takes teamwork to make the dream work. Entrepreneur - Start, run and grow your business. entrepreneur.com |

Sports / Galatasaray Sign Drogba by darex1: 6:35pm On Jan 28, 2013 |
Galatasaray Sign Drogba Ivory Coast captain and former Chelsea striker Didier Drogba has left Shanghai Shenhua to sign a 1-1/2 year contract with Galatasaray, Turkish broadcaster CNN, Turk said on Sunday. The channel did not give any more information and Galatasaray could not be reached for immediate comment. The 34-year-old, who is on Africa Nations Cup duty with his country, moved to China after helping Chelsea win the Champions League last May. Drogba signed a 2-1/2 year deal with Shenhua in June that was, according to media reports, worth around $300,000 a week. However, the Shanghai-based Oriental Sports daily said last month that the player was owed money by the club. Drogba applied for permission to leave on loan before the January transfer window but world soccer’s ruling body FIFA refused the request. The striker returned to Chelsea to train at his former club in a bid to stay sharp for the Nations Cup, fuelling media speculation of a return to Europe. If his move to Turkey is confirmed, the transfer will come less than a week after Netherlands midfielder Wesley Sneijder joined Galatasaray from Inter Milan |

Politics / The Cruelty Of Corruption In Nigeria by darex1: 1:23pm On Aug 17, 2012 |
MANY times I have hinted at what I call the ambivalence of Nigerians about corruption. Indeed, what I mean is that we are all hypocritical about our concern over corruption. Otherwise how is it that very often those who are ostensibly in pursuit of transparency or those fighting corruption are invariably caught in the very act of corruption? What I see most times are people who are incensed that someone else is doing the stealing, and not them. Given half a chance, they out-steal the people they were criticising yesterday. Oh; the smart phrase nowadays is “the hunter becomes the hunted”! In other words, the thief and the “catcher” easily trade places! The common axiom is that while you are pointing a finger at someone, three other fingers are pointed directly at you while one, the thumb points upwards in obvious non- commitment! Another way to put it is to call attention to the man in the mirror. He may, in fact, be the very thief you are looking for. In one of my articles in the eighties I propounded a theory that the decibel of the noise of a Nigerian is directly proportional to his distance from an opportunity to steal. The nearer he gets to the opportunity, the less his noise. When he finally arrives at the opportunity, he is dead silent! Until a man has been “politically exposed” (apologies to Mrs. Farida Waziri, ex-EFCC boss) and comes out clean, I can never take him serious. Assets declaration and the law That brings me to the noise from the opposition since Sunday 24 June 2012 when President Jonathan insisted during the Presidential Media Chat, that there was nothing in the law that compelled him to declare his assets publicly. First, how could we Nigerians have forgotten so soon that this matter was always hotly debated in various constitutional conferences and we were given cultural reasons why we would not allow it, including the ridiculous excuse that relations would prey on you if they know what you have? It was our choice that public declaration of assets was not necessary. And we have not changed the law. Although during the media chat, the President kept saying that it was “a matter of principle”, I believe that he meant it was a matter of choice. Many people had run away with the wrong notion that the President refused to declare his assets. I believe that, as President, he had declared his assets as required by law. Declaration of assets is compulsorily done by a public officer latest within three weeks of taking office and after leaving office. In some cases even before you take the oath of the office. If a public officer wants to make his declaration public, that is his choice. Not making it public does not detract or conceal anything because the declarations are VERIFIED! Making a declaration public should no longer be an issue to be politicised today given the Freedom of Information Act. Under the Act, anyone interested in assets declared by a public officer can apply to have them. It serves no useful purpose, even as mere symbolism, in our anti- corruption war except to satiate the pallet of a society with a huge pornographic appetite for salacious stories. In my view a better way to fight corruption is through tightening the loopholes within the system, tighter and more open budgeting system, strict enforcement of laws, effective tax system that retrieves what is stolen and jails the culprit for tax evasion if we can’t nail him on graft and our society being more courageous in shunning unexplained sudden wealth, on the one hand. We can all see that the present catch am, catch am method of anti-corruption crusade is not working and can never work, no matter how many people symbolically declare their assets publicly. Hypocritical opposition On the other hand, I think the opposition that is railing at Jonathan is annoyingly hypocritical. The leaders of the opposition have held public offices. Some just left office. I think a better way to pressure Jonathan to publicly declare his assets should have been for the opposition leaders to cast the first stone by declaring their own assets publicly. Some of the hypocritical opposition leaders are linked with assets they could never have acquired even if they were to earn a million Naira a month all their days in public office! And why do Nigerians still think that it is only the President, Governors and Ministers that can be corrupt? Until recently, who would have believed that a director in the civil service could keep N2 billion cash in his house? Some of those civil servants with torn T- shirts and worn shoes have estates all over Abuja and mansions in their villages! The so-called private sector may even be more corrupt than the public sector. After all, apart from direct filching of public funds, many instances of bribing are masterminded by the private sector. If we are going to be serious about the war against corruption in Nigeria we must first of all appreciate how pervasive it is and stop playing politics with its eradication. NYSC and Boko Haram AFTER the 2011 post presidential election violence, the Director General of the NYSC promised that youth corps members would no longer be posted to states where they would be exposed to danger. The killing of corpers has continued with the terrorism in some Northern states. Many parents are now worried that their wards are being posted to violence-prone states in the North where these corpers cannot go to church, market or even to their place of primary assignment without being killed, and at a time some state governments have sent buses to evacuate their students from those states! The NYSC should not expose graduates to |
