 CHAPTER ONE

IF I CAN DO IT, YOU CAN DO IT

This first chapter will be more of personal stories to prepare you for the journey of the other
chapters. If someone had told me years ago that I would be a social media expert, I doubt if I would have
believed it. My journey in the social media world has been nothing short of the grace of God. As a
Christian, I have learnt to rely on the abilities that God supplies and I have learnt to also labor with that
ability. A lot of times, people pray without acting. At other times, people act without praying. I believe
praying and acting should go hand in hand, there is a part you need to play and then God also plays his
part. 100% of the time, God will always play his part but we fail to play our part and that is why the
result never shows.

So back to my story, I came into the social media world initially just to be part of it but after a
while, I discovered I have what it takes to be able to train others to also get the same kind of result I was
getting. The sincere truth is I never went through any formal coaching to learn some of the things I
know. The things I know about social media came as a result of diligent study and research. Over and
over, I've had to burn the midnight candle searching for answers. Of course over time, I got to have a
mentor in the social media world I look up to but a large chunk of the success rate was because I put my
heart to it. I remember when I started out, I was consistently sending messages to people that I could
grow and manage their account at a fee. Presently I don't do that, infact I've had to turn some people
down because of the bulk of my work. I remember also when I started out with my trainings as well, a
part of the caption said "I have trained about 50 people". At that time, it felt like a very big deal to me, I
was excited about that 50 but presently my record stands at about 1200 people successfully trained and
to me, I'm just starting out. The story so far has been that of consistency. I've had some failures along
the way, some people doubted and questioned if I knew what I was doing but I never allowed that get to
me. Things will come to limit you as you journey but you must be resolute to never allow anything
distract you. You must stay focused on what is ahead of you. The top spot in the world is for those who
decide to remain consistent no matter what happens. The beginning of the journey might be small, it
might even look as though there is no progress but I want you to know that nothing can stop a man who
has resolved in his heart to stay with his goals in life. At every point in time, celebrate your achievement
and never despise the days of little beginning. Be your own personal hype man, the world might not

7|Page
celebrate you yet so do the job of celebrating yourself. Remember that determination and persistence
alone is omnipotent. If I can do it, you can also do it.

 CHAPTER TWO

THE MAN WHO DESIRED THE POWER OF THE gods

In Greek myth, the story is told about King Midas who desired that whatever he touched turned
into gold. I'm sure everyone would love that, right. Well I would just focus on the first part of the story
of the Midas touch. The truth is as a Christian, the divine ability to make things happen is already
resident in you. There is no failure for a man that is born again. To be born again simply means to be
born of God. When goat gives birth, they will give birth to goat, when cows give birth, they will give birth
to cows so when God will give birth, he surely will give birth to gods. This is what it means to be born
again. For me, this is the game changer for me. Although some people that don't share the same faith
with me still get very good results or even more but for me this is where I get my greatest inspiration
and motivation from. I have learnt not to rely on my own abilities or my own personal wisdom. And
truth is when I started relying on the greater one on my inside; I started seeing results on another
dimension. I often have visitations by the spirit of wisdom telling me what next to do. Over and over
again, I've seen people come to tell me that I inspired them to act when they saw what I was doing. For
me, it is difficult to separate business from my spiritual life because I strongly believe that life itself is
spiritual. No man can ever get to the top without a spiritual backing, it is almost impossible. If you will
break forth and reach a great level, you must go beyond the natural and engage the divine force. The
human mind is also powerful but the human mind was never made to comprehend some things. I see
this as having two options, its either you walk the stairs up or you go by an elevator, for me I think I
would prefer the elevator, I don't want to sweat too much. There is a spirit in man, and the inspiration
of the Almighty gives him understanding. Humble yourself and stop relying on ability, rely on the ability
that the greater one supplies. There is a winner in you, begin to engage that winner and the results will
start flowing.

 CHAPTER THREE

WHAT MAKES A MAN GREAT

The journey continues here. I once heard a quote by Bruce Lee that he fears a man that has
practiced a kick once in a day for one thousand days rather than a man who has practiced a kick one
thousand times a day. This quote alone shows the power of consistency. Atimes it’s not about doing
something major in a day but about doing the little every day. Consistency is a habit that must be built
over time. Great men are men who have mastered the art of consistency over time hence, the reason
for their results. Like I said in the first chapter, the results might not show immediately infact, I might
advise that you don't focus on getting results first but on building consistency. I've heard of men that
start their daily activities by 3am and this is what they have practiced for decades. It is a habit that has
already been formed. Great men are men of habits. They are men that have learnt to master their body
and their emotion. In building consistency, there will be times when your body or your mind doesn't feel
like going through that routine but you must learn to fight it. You must know that you are the one in
charge and whatever decision you make is final. You are not your body neither are you your mind, the
real you is a spirit and that is where the force of life comes from. So your YES must be a YES and your NO
must be a NO. Be deliberate about creating an unbreakable habit. Research has shown that if you do
something consistently for 21 days, a habit will be formed from it. The same way a good habit can be
formed is the same way a bad habit can be formed so, the choice is before you. Form habits that will
take you to the top in your field, habits that will make you a principality in your business. Importantly
you must be deliberate. Permit me to say that you must learn to take the bull by the horn, never let your
life turn out based on people's opinion or random chance. Your life is more valuable than that. Live for
something such that when you are no more, people will remember you for what you identified as. The
whole world is your stage; you determine what you want to display.

 CHAPTER FOUR

FIVE SECRETS OF CONSISTENCY

In this chapter, I will be talking about 5 secrets that will guarantee accountability. Some of these
secrets have been used over and over again to produce the results I enjoy as well as others.

 VISION- Vision is the fundamental requirement of all world changers. Some could call it goal
setting or targets but we would stay with the word "vision". What is the vision ahead?, what do
you see? What is your dream? What keeps you going in the midst of the storm and contrary
evidence? It seems to me that this is one thing that must be clear on your heart. What are you
living for and what do you aim to achieve? The reason people atimes give up on life is because
they can't see ahead. There is something about seeing ahead that gives you joy. Have you ever
noticed that when your party is coming, you are more excited because there is something you
are looking forward to? This is also the case about life generally and this is one thing that will
ensure you are consistent; there must always be a big picture ahead of you that can keep you
awake in the middle of the night. It must be a propelling force that fires you up. Great men and
women are people of vision and this is why they have chosen the path of consistency. Nothing
can kill a man that has a vision and a mission to fulfill. No matter how many times he fails, he
would still rise up again. It was said of Thomas Edison that he failed so many times before he
eventually made the light bulb. Truth is the only thing he could see was the light bulb and
nothing was strong enough to stop him from achieving it. Have a vision, make it plain so that
you may run and you won't faint.

 MENTORSHIP- Over and over again, it has been said that no man is an Island and I have found
this to be true. Most of the time you need an external push to get to your destination in life. I
have noticed that the period in my life when I produce the optimal results are periods I have
given myself over to a mentor to drill me. The natural man is proud and feels he can do all by
himself. There is only one person who is self-sustaining and self-sufficient and that is God so we

11 | P a g e
 need to humble ourselves and come under a mentor for the sake of the extra push and
accountability. Pattern your life along the lines of your mentor. Get someone who is producing
the kind of results that you desire in life and follow such a person doggedly. Don’t just follow
from afar; follow on a one on one basis. Great men always speak of their mentors and people
who have inspired them in their field of endeavor. So my big question to you now is who is your
mentor? Who are you following? Who are you accountable to? For some people, you might
need to rebuild old relationships that have helped you in the past as well as forge new ones that
will take you to your destination in life. The world is large enough to accommodate the
champion in you.

 BREAK DOWN YOUR GOALS- If you want to eat a cow, do you it eat all at once? The answer is
No. The reason people give up on the journey of consistency is because they go beyond their
capacity. Capacity is not what you build overnight but it is a deliberate slow and steady journey.
It has been said over and over that Rome wasn't built in a day neither are great men made
overnight. You must learn to break down your goals into small achievable and measurable
points. Atimes you need to go over them to see how far you have gone with them. If it is 5
minutes you can do per day, then it is fair enough. Over time, you will be able to increase to 30
minutes and eventually go hours a day for you to be able to achieve all that you have set your
heart to do. Like we earlier established, consistency is about building a habit. Grow into that
habit and you will be happy you did.

 REWARD SYSTEM- All work and no play make Jack a dull boy. The mind needs some form of
excitement and relaxation to function well. Find out what really interests you and after
achieving your goals for the day or for the week, indulge yourself. Never indulge yourself until
you are done achieving your goals for the day. Atimes you might want to deceive yourself and
say let me indulge myself first and I will eventually get to my goals. 90% of the time, it has been
found that the method will never work. So as you take this journey of consistency, learn to
appreciate yourself and create a reward system that will make you happy. The mind and body
functions optimally when one is happy.

12 | P a g e
  CIRCLES- Show me your friend and I will tell you the future that awaits you. Hold on a minute
and check your circle of friends? Do they inspire you? Do you have the same drive? Are you
walking towards the same direction? Are they hardworking and goal oriented? Are they
disciplined? Are they examples of what you will like to be? These questions and many more
must be genuinely answered. The reason a lot of people are not producing results is because of
the circle of friends they keep. We are ultimately all products of influence whether we like it or
not and who you spend time with will ultimately rub off on you. If you are friends with 4
millionaires, you will surely be the 5th millionaire but if you are friends with 4 lazy people, you
will most likely be the 5th lazy person. You need to do a deliberate check on your inner circle. I
don't encourage people to be lone rangers except it is for a short time but if that is what it will
take for you to switch the kind of influence around you, please do so. Your friends are reflection
of what you will eventually become.

 CHAPTER FIVE

iBELIEVE

Through the pages of this book, I have asked a number of questions that we must sincerely
answer in our hearts. You might want to go back to note down some of these questions and provide
answers to them. Truth be told, the questions haven't come to an end, my next question is what do you
believe? As a man thinks in his heart, so is he. You will never be greater than the imaginations of your
heart. You must see it on the inside before it happens on the outside. Perhaps you need to deliberately
take the first few minutes of the day to create a picture of the realities you desire to see in your life.
There is nothing bad in doing a bit of day dreaming if it is realistic and achievable. Learn to take time out
to think through.

Another major point I want to make is that you must learn to speak to yourself. Tell yourself you
can do it. Be your own number one fan. Tell yourself you can conquer. Others might have said wrong
things about your life and you somehow believed it but that can change. You own your life, never allow
anybody to talk you down. Wake up in the morning and speak to yourself, call out the champion in you.
There is a winner in everyman that needs to come out. Speak to that winner in you and let him begin to
find full expression. Let that winner take you to the top of life. Look into the mirror and speak gracious
words that bring pleasure to the soul of a man. I always tell people that are close to me that I believe in
them. A lot of negative energy flies around and I have decided never to be part of the people peddling
negative energy. I have learnt that words are important. Words will either make or mar a child. Parents
must learn to speak life into their kids, husbands must speak words of life to their wives and vice-versa. I
remember the words of my master who said "all things are possible to him who believes" ....What do
you believe?

 CHAPTER SIX

NO TURNING BACK

We are gradually coming to the end of the journey. We decided to make it simple and short. The
journey of consistency is not an overnight job. It is a gradual process that one must grow into. Worthy of
mention at this point of the journey is to burn the bridge behind us so as not to turn back. Any man that
puts his hands into the plough and looks back becomes unfit. Truth is there will be times when you will
feel like giving up on your goals and targets. It is normal to feel like giving up but I want you to
remember that when you come to such a point in your life, you have the option of stopping or
continuing. There is always a choice before us to make. Even if it happens that you pause for a while,
make sure you resume as soon as possible. Never quit, never stop. Let me end with this funny quote
that has always been with me for a long time "Aspire to acquire what you desire even when you are
tired, do not retire but refire to acquire what you initially admired". If you can't fly, make sure you are
running, if you can't run, make sure you are walking, if you can't walk, make sure you are crawling but by
all means you must keep moving. The sky is large enough to accommodate all birds. There is a destiny
that you must fulfill by all possible means available to humanity. Stay with the goal and stay consistent.
We shall meet at the top.
