Perspectives on Entrepreneurship : Four elements that differentiate sustainable enterprises from the also-rans
I work with many entrepreneurs, most with great ideas, who end up losing their assets and intellectual property because they focus on the quick benefits mentality as opposed to sustainable strategies to bring their ideas to life. The clever people, who see the value of the assets are quick to buy them out, or even … Continue reading
Yet another testimony of why Aretha is Queen- So Damn Happy!
If you want to know why Aretha Franklin was Queen, listen to this album. A modern album, but powerful in its prowess. Showcasing Aretha’s currency – Adaptability. She was really great at adjusting and remaining relevant. With drum programming and digital beats and some hood slang thrown in for goid measure, The Queen, wasn’t trying … Continue reading
We have created our depression: Reflections on our socially imposed mental health issues
Even in his passing, Dr Mayosi remains a giant in his contribution to the national narrative about some of the social conversations we are usually afraid to have. For the last week or so I have been observing how amateurs and experts, sufferers and detractors alike are having a conversation about the nature of stress … Continue reading
Language is not about words…
For as long as I can remember, I have always been a writer. Not just in terms of “writing”, as in putting the words down. But I have always known from a very early age, the power of words. I think, no, I believe I already knew from even that time, as it is anecdoted, … Continue reading
Be well…
This life is not for soft people my friends. Take care of your spirit and cultivate resilience, and by that I don’t mean coping by all means, I mean knowing also when to cry and ask for help. Know who you can trust, and learn the wisdom in surrender. And by that I mean … Continue reading
Don’t start with a job… Start with YOU.

The mistake society still makes is equating interests with careers/jobs. Your interests can be very wide as a human being, depending on your make up (Values, Motives, Personality) and this … Continue reading

Our stupidity of course as people is we seek easy … Continue reading
Leadership and Impulse Control: What is it and what to do about it.
I have been noticing this issue of impulse control, i. e The propensity for a leader to be impulsive in their response to stimuli in the leaders I work with lately. These kinds of leaders would interrupt others very often, make rash decisions that sometimes get them in personal or organisational trouble, and sometimes it … Continue reading
So I finally went to see Black Panther…
Shem, I eventually allowed myself to be encouraged to go see the wakanda movie. I’m glad I did. I understand now the hype and the conversation about it. It’s a very important movie. And beautifully made. Reminded me why I love movies so much. Not just for the art, but for the way a well … Continue reading
An avenue of interrupted dreams
Sometimes when reality gets complicated, nothing like a visit to this township to give you perspective. In 35°C heat, the breeze was blowing gently, it was quiet. Somewhere was a family with 5 children having a picknick on the side of the road. I found myself remembering yet again…this is where most of us will … Continue reading
