What are the major advice you have for upcoming individuals in business and marriage?
My business advice for the upcoming generation are: start your own business no matter where you are currently working, don't wait to start big because most great things start little and know your product or service inside out.
In marriage; don't go into marriage because of age. Check your pocket first.
If you are not a good forgiver, you are not yet a candidate for marriage. Marriage is not for boys or girls. It is for two matured people who are ready for the responsibilities. Marriage is an issue of "for better, for worse" and a prayer less couple will soon throw in the towel.
Who is your role model and why?
My role model are many. Napoleon Hill, Dr. Sidney Bremer, Earl Nightingale, John Maxwell, Myles Munroe, Tony Robbins, Brian Tracy, T. D. Jakes, David Oyedepo, Sam Adeyemi and Sunny Obazu Ojeagbase.
They are my role models because they do what I am dreaming to do and they elicit the kind of discipline I respect.
