Avoid the Trap

When you are in a quest for success, you will not be in an easy road.  

There are many hurdles and barriers that you need to overcome.  Sometimes it is daunting to go through all that but it is part of the test as they call it.  Nothing is easy otherwise everyone can get it.  Only the best and the brightest and those that persevered will ever reach the top.


Many of our successful folks would narrate their life stories on how they were faced with so many obstacles, hardships and difficulties.  The path is not easy at all.  Its doable and not impossible as they confidently exclaim.  They proudly proclaim how they did it along the way.  When they almost gave up and caved in to pressure, in the nick of time, just a little bit of patience and endurance, they made it.
However, we dont normally hear from them about traps.  We hear a lot about things that blocked their way but we never really hear about the times they were trapped or lost their way.  The only reason for that is to avoid embarrassment. A trap is an embarrassment.  They should have known better but they got caught in a trap and had been diverted, thus, their quest was delayed.


Traps are things that makes us stuck and unable to move when we want to.  These are things in life that prevents us from moving towards our goal.  These are bad habits, bad companies and bad relationships that syphons your time, resources and self-respect.  As business people, these things need to be avoided.  You need to avoid these distractions at all cost.  



Once you avoided these traps, the rest will be easier, things will be better.  You will have the strength and ability to direct all your efforts towards your goal and this time, you will be wiser and better.

What the Elites Don’t Want You to Know

‘You are the author of your life.’ I’m sure you have heard this a thousand times before as this cliché has been said by a lot of great speakers to motivate their audience. But somehow, you most likely believe that some lives are authored by bloodline especially for people who are born with a silver spoon in the mouth. And you know that the quote ‘ You are the author of your life ’ is only applicable to regular people so that they couldn’t blame anyone for the poverty and scarcity they experience. -The Trap- Now let me tell you some truths that might shock the very core of you. The things that the world and the media has led you to believe are façade and lies to stop you from being free from the trap. And when I say trap, I mean that 9-5 job you’ve signed for. Trap is the routine that you do, an endless cycle of going to work, receiving your paycheck monthly, that’s not even enough to cover all the dues. Trap is also the miserable and dangerous world that you believe you are ...

A Gem Not Far From a Crowded City

Is your dream house unaffordable? Try looking for it in Fergus.   Fergus is the largest community in Centre Wellington, a township within Wellington County in Ontario and it is just a bit over one hour drive from Mississauga and Toronto. It lies on the Grand River about 18 km NNW of Guelph. The population of this community at the time of the 2016 Census was 20,767, but the community is growing as new homes are being built for sale. Fergus became an independent town until 1999 when the Township was formed by amalgamating Fergus, the Village of Elora, Ontario and the Townships of Nichol, Pilkington, West Garafraxa and a part of Eramosa. Fergus is has a number of natural settings such as the Elora Gorge and Conservation Area, and Belwood Lake. It is a mostly residential community filled with streets lined with trees, many stone buildings, modern schools, and many parklands suitable for recreation and picnics. It is laid out on a rectangular grid, with the Grand R...

Three Things Every Businessman Must Have

Maybe you are curious what it takes to be a successful businessman. Truth is, the things that I had learned more from them by merely observing them is twice as much than what I learned from the entire time I sat on my business management class from college. Here are the three things I believe that every successful businessman should have regardless of the field or business industry you are in.  1. Consistent Energy. In anything, consistency is always the name of the game. In business, consistency of the energy is one deciding factor whether the business will prosper or not. What is very consistent with all the successful people is the fire, the drive, and the passion. They just don’t let the vibe die. I guess enthusiasm is the word.  If you are not as enthusiastic and excited as before, your clients/customers would actually feel it. Whether you believe it or not, everything is made up of energy. Even your place of business has a vibe itself. I can still remember when...
