Insight into my story, “A Life Worth Living”
by Tony DADA

Soon after I made myself intentionally homeless in pursuit of my purpose, I met my spiritual mentor and began a journey of self-discovery. 10 years later one day I found myself homeless again this time stripped of everything armed with nothing other than which I had learnt from my mentor, which I did not realise at the time was more valuable than anything.

What I soon discovered was that my personal growth and success was directly linked to helping, in fact investing in people, particularly those from certain sections of society namely conscious, creative and social entrepreneurs as well as youth and women.

For more than 25 years that is what I have done, learnt how to invest in people because, there is a skill to it. For 20 years this investing in people did not require the investee to invest in themselves and despite this success was achieved. The last 5 years however, has yielded even better results primarily because humanity is waking up and I have learnt the hard way that the best people to invest in are those ready to invest in themselves.

People are waking up to their true potential realising that life is not about being dependent on a boss who will employ you to do his/her bidding for a flimsy pay cheque. Instead through working on one self, one can learn how to identify and then package one’s skills, talents and abilities and then employ yourself to provide this as a benefit to the world.

This is the learning community I am now investing in, designing and constructing with my team to facilitate your growth and transformation.

I am so grateful that you are one of our early supporters as you get to input in how this takes shape.

Let’s build a rich learning environment and community, which will allow us to grow and express our higher and true potential.

Things to discover when you have a broken foot!
by Judith Jack

I love learning, but dislike reading and have a selective short term memory, so imagine my delight when I came across this guy (Jim Kwik), who promised to improve my memory tenfold, as well as improving my reading speed, “count me in”, I shout excitedly.

So I sign up for his free 90 minute online introductory course with some scepticism. The course was

Fab-ul-ous, well put together, engaging, lots of learning opportunities, (a bit contrived in places), but I can live with that. At the end of the course, he does him “up-sell bit” which I reflect on and discuss with my husband, who makes some positive noises, so I do the spontaneous thing and I purchase a more in-depth course, starting in Sept 2018. Really excited as the whole family will do the 1 month course with me.

There were loads of takeaways from the introductory course, but the one that challenged me the most was “you should aim to read a book a week” to help improve your memory and retention. My first reaction was “What…I can’t do that, is he mad?” I have been known to take 6-12 months to read a book. After a day of reflection I decide to try this mission impossible task. Being a project manager I break everything down into “chunks”, so I do the following calculations: Length of book divided by 7 days = number of pages to read per day (30 pages per day) oh, “that doesn’t sound too bad!”

On 3 Sept, I started the experiment. It’s now 24th Sept, I have read 3 books! Blow me over with a feather…My success is due to chunking the books; allocating 45 minutes a day to read, without fail; quick wins gave me motivation to keep going. On my quest I came across 2 gems, which I thought I should share, brace yourself its “heavy” and “practical, I can’t help it, I am a project manager.

Heavy: “The question is – if you die today, what ideas, what dreams, what abilities, what talents and what gifts, would die with you? (Quote by Les Brown, in Andy Harrington’s book Passion into Profits- 2015). The way I interpret this is, as a conscious creative with a plethora of the above traits, you have a responsibility to share, so that we all learn and grow.

Practical: “In stepping up we often feel exposed and vulnerable and want to run back to our comfort zone”, saying “I can’t do it or if I do X then Y will happen.” Instead why not try these self-talk “If I take action I will either win or I will learn something and I love learning” or “Everything happens for a reason that supports my journey” or “If someone else can do it, I can do it too”. (Ref: Paraphrased extract from Andy Harrington’s book Passion into Profits- 2015). Enjoy!
