This week: invest your time.

We often think about investments in terms of finance. But our most valuable resource is time.

We waste and underutilize this valuable resource by devoting hours to amusement and minutes to investment.

This week, let's flip the script.

Cont...
Amusements are fun but boring activities yield immense future dividends.

This week, let's:

1. Think & plan for the future.
2. Read & learn something new.
3. Teach & help someone become better.

Time investment > amusements.
Every week, I focus on something small but impactful and share it here in hope that it will help or inspire someone.

Follow me to receive these weekly nuggets.

Have a great week ahead.

3 things about starting a new business.

1. Don't ever start big.
Even if you have the funds to go big. Start small and scale rapidly.

2. Don't stray too far from your area of competence.

3. Start with 1 business model, in 1 market, with 1 unified mgt structure.
Business planning is great but it's impossible to game plan all possible failure scenarios.

Starting small gives you the opportunity to fail "small" before you achieve scale.

You can quickly rise again if you fail "small." Big failures are tougher.
All businesses experience failures.

Even the most strategic businesses fail at some products:

1. Apple Lisa
2. Google+
3. Facebook Workplace
4. Windows Phone
5. Amazon Fire phone.

Start small to domesticate the market. Then scale rapidly afterwards.

I am sincerely shocked that so many people think it's OK to yell at customers if they "deserves" it.

Is it OK to yell at your subordinates if they make mistakes? What about your spouse? Younger siblings?

There is NO excuse for either physical or verbal abuse.

None whatsoever.
When you feel the impetus to yell at an unreasonable customer, just assume for a minute that you're running an international business.

You will lose your job (on the spot) if you're rude to a customer in an intl business.

Control yourself, smile, and ask how you can be of help.
I once fired a lady from my company and she went on to join another company that hired me as a consultant.

She decided that the best way to show me she's the new boss is by being rude and obnoxious.

I told my people, "Remember, she's the client. She pays our salaries."

7 ways to make 2020 better than 2019 (part 2)

No 5 to 7

- A THREAD
5. Work.

Hard work never killed anybody.

Last month we kicked off a soft launch of Overwood (overwood.ng), a FinTech investment platform I lead, and I had to work 14 hours every day in December.

Hard, intense, strategic work is the only way to move forward.
6.Invest.

Open at least two investment accounts to diversify your investments. You obviously don’t want to place all your investments in any single basket.

Read this thread to understand why this is necessary.

 “It’s About Time!”
by @DickieArmour


You have 24 hours a day.

But how do you spend your time?

This #tweetstorm is a wake up call.

It’s about time, and how you spend it.

#Time #TimeManagement #24Hours #itsabouttime
2.
 Let’s assume each day begins and ends at midnight.

Let’s assume we work for 10 hours a day, 5 days a week.

That leaves 14 hours.

We sleep for 8 hours a night.
3.
 That’s leaves 6 hours every week day.

And 16 hours each Saturday and Sunday.

That’s 6 x 5 = 30 hours Mon - Fri + 32 hours at the weekend.



A total of 62 hours a week, of your time to spend.

📊#Time for monthly #stats

Good news! #ISIS activity on @Twitter decreased again in June: 7 195 new 🎯That's 12% less compared to May.
Again, 88% of these accounts were hacked: old, inactive, weakly protected.
They could easily be frozen in bulk. 😐

Thanks everyone!

📊Time for monthly #stats

In average, we found 240 new #ISIS accounts per day in #June2019 (May: 263). Always the same guys, coming back again and again, spreading mostly the same propaganda month after month.
A bunch of losers...

#opiceisis
📊Time for monthly #stats

Less good news now. With 6 903 suspensions for 7 195🎯, the outcome (96%) slightly dropped again, by 1%.
@TwitterSupport provided a lower service this month for #ISIS accounts removals, both in terms of quantity...

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.

(1) The extreme accommodations being offered by Grassley & Mitch are the greatest #BlessYourHeart in history.

They know she will NEVER repeat her allegations under oath.

They know the votes next week WILL be 11-10 then 51-49.

They know Kav will NEVER be impeached.

#Chill
(2) OK I used a little poetic license in Tweet #1. They can't know exactly what the votes will be; there's more than one way to #ConfirmKavanaugh next week. Any judge *could* theoretically be impeached on a new issue, but IMHO Kav is the least likely person ever to commit crime.
(3) I've had it with all the shrieking over this confirmation. No, ongoing Democrat slime ball tactics to undermine Kav once he's on the SCOTUS are not going to succeed. Haven't you learned this by now?

The more they try, the more they show voters who they are. #WalkAway
