make clean six figure money for yourself in 2016

facts you must know to help you actualize your dream of making a million naira in 2016:* successful entrepreneurs reach out for new goals and ambitions. They get wealthy by focusing on one thing they are very good at. They develop that one thing until they are best at it. So what one thing are you good at? What's your one thing? Successful entrepreneurs do not believe in trading time for money. No matter how much is involved. If you want to make financial impact in life, you must realise that it may be OK to trade time for money just for a while but at some point you must have to focus and apply LEVERAGE. In the world economy today,entrepreneurship is growing exponentially because of the endless possibilities and upsides involved. Why will you let such opportunity slip by you? Fear? FEAR OF: launching out?, failure? Or worst still fear of other people's opinion? Successful entrepreneurs are people who want extraordinary life, and they don't go with the mindset of being accepted or liked by everyone. Don't forget that those who care about what people think or say about them will always be limited by other people's opinion. Successful entrepreneurs trust themselves, believe strongly on themselves with great confidence. They are people who have developed thick skins and mental toughness. They are self motivated, they give themselves the support they couldn't get from others. Don't forget again, the reason most people do not succeed is because they live their lives on what people think or say about them. I challenge you to get lost in your own thing and I assure you that when you succeed, people will celebrate you. Today, Nigeria is celebrating people like Dangote, chairman innoson group, cosmos maduka,chair person Emzor pharmaceuticals, the list is endless, just fix your name too because you will soon be celebrated for your contribution to mankind.

Building up your soft skills

USING HUMOUR ( LAUGHTER AND PLAY)
       You can use humor to build and maintain successful relationships. Over the time we have been told that  laughter is the best medicine. This is because laughter relieves tension and stress, it  elevates mood,enhances creativity and boosts energy. You can learn to use this tool ,humour, to build or strengthen your relationship with people. Another truth is that laughter is contagious, just hearing someone laugh primes you to a smile.
          Conflict is an inevitable part of all relationship. How you manage conflicts can determine how successful your relationship can be. Humour when used skillfully and respectfully can quickly turn conflict and tension into an opportunity for shared fun and intimacy. You need to develop an effective use of this tool  and while using it ,be sensitive to the other person.

How to build up your soft skills

A lot of people have written books and articles about this subject matter, but the fact remains that no matter how many books you read,if you don't put up a practical or conscious effort to build yourself up, it will just end up as added knowledge without impact on you. So to stand out in life .you need to :
     1. Connect with people
      2. Learn good listening skills
      3. Study and use body language
      4. Learn to recognise and manage stress
       5. Manage your energy
       6. Use humour
       7. Be kind to yourself
   These skills are skills that will put you in a valuable position in your school, office, business, family,community,place of worship and everywhere you find yourself.
     😀managing your energy : this is all about how you balance hard work with rest and play. All work and no play makes jack a dull boy. To effectively manage your energy , SCHEDULE IT.   Schedule fun or relaxation activities in advance and stick to them. To be effective on this, you can enlist family and friends to help you unplug.
    Manage your energy so you can manage your time. These days, there are just too much work to do in one day that sometimes  a lot of people end up exhausted with half finished tasks.
   The problem lies in how to keep our energy level high to ensure that you finish at least one of your most important tasks for the day. And the fact remains that what we need is more than time management , we need energy management as well. Discover you high-energy hours , your body clock and then prioritise your task. That way you will become more productive.
       😢 study body languages : know that reading body language is a complex task. As people  are complex so are their nonverbal behaviour. To be able to read a person's body language accurately you may need to study that person for sometime. This is because there is no general rule here . some people when lying , break their eye contact while others try to maintain more eye contact than usual ,when lying. Body language can also differ according to culture,  in some culture, a lowered posture may indicate submission while in some culture it may be a sign or invitation for wrestling.
 However, it is important to understand body language when relating to people  such as facial expression. You can actually develop your ability to accurately interpret happiness, contentment, excitement, anger,sadness,fear,disgust , etc
😣😁😇😬😈you can comment on any point that doesn't go well with you.

Leadership skills: developing your soft skills

The need and importance of having solid people sills,also known as soft skills cannot be overemphasized. If you aspire to be a leader with an impact, you need a well formed or developed soft skills as much technical skills to succeed. What are these soft skills?
*Ability to relate to others
*strong communication skills
*patience with others
*the ability to trust others
* Knowing how and when to trust others
*active listening skills

      The list is inexhaustible. The fact remains that you need to have a thriving relationship with people ,if you must make positive impact as a leader.
   People do not only need effective soft skills only in their jobs or businesses, but also in their lives and social circles.
      People who have wonderful or developed soft skills are often people who are good team players. They are people who remain calm and effective under pressure, people who act with grace in stressful situations. People who listen well ,admit mistakes and learn from them; respond well to criticism and of course , who show high self and situational awareness. You must not forget that people who have these skills well developed are said to have emotional intelligence and those who lack them are said to have personality issues.

       If your people skills are really top-notch you will be perpetually in demand in every circle of your endeavor. What is your take on this.? Are we on the same page?
