SHUT UP, START UP, AND STEP UP

SHUT UP, START UP, AND STEP UP
‘Don’t talk about what you are going to do, instead do it, and let others talk about it’-Steve Harris

When I decided to publish the M.O.V.E Achievers Compendium (Success Secrets of Nigerian Achievers), which by the way was a sold out publication, I procrastinated severely.I focused more on talking about rather than taking steps towards its realization. Eventually, it was published but I wasn’t prompt in taking action. I know you can relate with this story. You have projects you should be working on, a song you should be recording, a business you ought to have started .But you are doing more talking than taking steps towards the realization of your dream.

In the late 80’s he was of Nigeria’s biggest rising stars. The first actor to be paid a million naira for a movie role. He starred in several award winning roles and soon became a household name. Richard Mofedamijo never started from the top, in 1982 while in the university, he played the lead role in Echoes of wrath which was his first exposure to Television. He landed his first professional lead role in the film The Last Omen. He wasn’t just talking about his passion to be a renowned actor, he dared to take a chance on his dream, and today,he is a big shot in his area of expertise.

The challenge for many individuals is that they are waiting for the perfect timing in order to step out and be all they have been wired to be.A perfect timing is an illusion. Stepping out with divinity is the secret weapon of achievers.
It all started with a vision, to publish a magazine that empowers youth for change, in her hostel at the University of Jos. Amazingly, Rise grew and evolved rapidly into the grand daddy of all youth gatherings in Nigeria.

Today, this young but uncompromising lady heads one of Nigeria’s fastest growing youth businesses with revenues in tens of millions. Toyosi Akerele is a model to countless young Nigerians because she dared to shut up start up her business and now stepping up on the ladder to greatness.

Its time to stop complaining and start taking steps towards the writing of your own success story.More Action Less Talk(M.A.L.T).Go make it happen.
