If you want to be wealthy and have access to the good things of life and still have peace of mind, then you need to learn the little secret I discovered years ago that took me from flat broke to being able to afford whatever I fancy today ...
Dear Friend,
Recently, I had cause to reflect on my life, how I came to be where I'm today, considering where I was coming from. I was surprised to discover that my transformation was due to all the information I was fortunate to come in contact with as I made my journey through life.
As I made use of these powerful information, I was steadily progressing in life, although this was not so obvious initially when I started. But years later, as I looked back on my life, I realized that I had been on a continuous journey of positive progress. For example, when I was about 24 years old and in the Nigerian Army, I was always broke, my salary having being consumed by pools betting. I wanted to be wealthy. I've always had that desire, even at 24. But I did not realize that betting on pools, or getting involved in any form of gambling, would bankrupt me, rather than make me rich.
Then I stumbled on a booklet titled Seven Laws Of Success written by the late W. Herbert Armstrong, Founder of Worldwide Church of God. This booklet changed the entire course of my life. It taught me how to set goals and achieve them. To read the booklet click here .
I always considered myself a fortunate man. Fortunate in the sense that from that early stage, I had committed myself to applying any information that I'm convinced would help me achieve a goal I'm trying to reach. Later on in life, I discovered that this is one of the most important secrets of success.
You see, what you know is of no value to you unless you apply it, that is, put it to practical use. Unfortunately, this is what many people around the world, who desire to change their lives, are leaving undone.
They read books and manuals, attend seminars, get ideas and tips from their mentors and go through practically all the recommended processes for achieving success. But they fail to apply the things they learn. And they expect miracle to happen. No, it won't. You must apply what you know before you can see the result. Period!
From that 1974 when I read Seven Laws of Success until today, I've been devoted to searching for useful information and applying those that are relevant to the direction I wanted to take in life. And doing that faithfully took me to where I'm today.
I know the question you're trying to ask me right now. And I will answer it. But before I do so, I want to appeal to you to PLEASE try and understand that I'm not about to brag about where God has brought me in life by saying any of the following things.
The only reason I'm mentioning them here is so that you can see, clearly, that with a little effort made consistently. you, too, can move from where you're right now to where you want God to take you.
You see, I joined the Nigerian Army in 1968 at age 18 with only a first school leaving certificate, otherwise known as Primary Six Certificate. That was my educational status until I read that little book I told you about.
It was in the booklet that I learnt that I had to acquire specialized knowledge and improve my formal education if I truly desired to make it in life. And if there was any one thing I wanted so badly, it was to make it in life.
So I responded to this new information by enrolling for General Certificate of Education (GCE) examination and a home study course in journalism, specializing in sports writing.
You can read more about this aspect of my life in my first book, How To Make It In Nigeria Building Your Wealth From Ground Floor Up. (To get the information click here ).
That was the beginning of my rise in life. I went on to become the sports editor of one of Nigeria's leading newspapers, The Guardian. But another remarkable turning point in my life was to take place in December 1983. I again stumbled on another book, Think And Grow Rich , authored by Napoleon Hill.
To understand just how powerful my little secret is and why you must consider yourself fortunate that I'm revealing it to you here, Think And Grow Rich has helped thousands of Americans to become financially free even beyond their wildest imagination.
People like Mary Kay Ash, Mark Victor Hansen, Melvin Powers and Earl Nightingale, to name a few well known Americans, are among those who ascribed their successes to the impact the book had on them.
These great Americans, and others like them who were influenced by Think And Grow Rich, readily admit that America is a country with unlimited opportunities such as has never been known to man in the history of the world.
For me to apply the information in the same book in Nigeria where opportunities are not only scarce but you have to practically wring it out of stone to get just a little drop of it, and still make it to the top by God's special grace as I've done, must convince you without any iota of doubt that my little secret will help you immensely if only you will make up your mind to adopt it.
So by just putting into practice all the things Napoleon Hill recommended in his book, I made up my mind to become an entrepreneur within a month of getting hold of, and reading, Think And Grow Rich .
About a year later, November 1984, that dream became a reality. (My first book also tells all the story about this dramatic turn around in my life and how I built my flourishing publishing empire).
Today, that first business that my wife, Esther, and I started in 1984 is still waxing strong as the pioneer and leading sports publishing enterprise in Nigeria, contributing to the economic well-being of my dear country to the glory of God. (To learn more about my sports publishing business, click here ).
In addition, we founded Success Attitude Development Centre (SADC), a non-governmental organization, in 1995. SADC has more than a dozen out-reaches (For more information about the NGO, click here ) and is responsible for raising and nurturing successful entrepreneurs in Nigeria through the monthly magazine that we also launched in September 1995, SuccessDigest (To learn more about the life-changing magazine, click here ).
The reason we founded SADC was because we realized what God had done for us, lifting us from our lowly station in life to where we could enjoy the good things of life and never have to worry about where our next meal would come from or worry about money generally. We then decided that we needed to show the way to others who may wish to transform their lives the way we did ours.
This website is helping us to accomplish this desirable goal. In my Wealth Library, you will find practically ALL the important resources that I ever used to come up this far in life: books, manuals, reports, seminars, audio cassettes, videos, CDs, DVDs. You name it.
Some of these resources are my original works. Then there are others that I endorse because I find them to be powerful and would help you achieve your goal faster. You will also meet ALL the people around the world whose works have contributed immensely to my life, blessed and enriched it.
Be rest assured that these resources will do for you what they did for me. They are all yours to access and make use of as you like.
Just before you open the doors to my Wealth Library, let me share this word of encouragement with you. Please don't focus too much on where you are right now. It doesn't matter at all. What matters, which is what I want you to keep in mind, is that you can get to that station in life that you want God to take you, your age and present financial circumstances notwithstanding.
Welcome to my Wealth Library. You are about to discover the secret of my wealth. My prayer for you is that you become even richer than I am for gaining access to my private library.
God bless you.
