This image below is a reflection of how little things compound over time:
The man’s name is William McElligott. A truck driver who would drive his truck with the window down.
Over time the side of his face that always faced the open window, exposed to wind and the UV light from the sun; began to age faster than the other side.
And this is why the right side (in the image) is that wrinkled.
Completely insane right?
This compounding effect with time happens in all areas of life. Your weight, finance…little drops fill the bucket.
Show up every day. No matter how small the time. Small efforts over time adds up.
Success = Time x Compound Effect.
Small daily effort is better than going full speed and running out of steam.

Giving the poor money will not get them out of poverty. Poverty is a mindset.
Let me explain with a true life story. Tai Solarin was a big critic of IBB during his reign as military head of state.
He believed IBB should give soft loans to the poor…
He argued that when this loans are given to poor Nigerians and they start a business. More people will be given the loan - and with time the number of poor people in Nigeria will reduce.
He said this so much that one day IBB invited him to Aso Rock
IBB told Tai that he had heard his criticism & pleaded that he should head the program. Tai agreed.
Immediately IBB created a people’s bank, pumped in funds into it - and the sole aim was to offer and service loans for poor people.
How to Build Connections with Successful people
===== 1. It is easier if you are famous….build a celebrity status in your niche and their DMs will be more welcoming.
2. If you don’t have the above, get a mutual friend to make an introduction. For instance, befriend the PA…
…offer something of value to the PA or a friend of theirs who is more accessible, then get them to make an introduction.
3. Successful people always have people asking them for things, don’t do it. You can get what you want by just hanging out with them and being valuable.
4. Don’t “wash” them. If you wash them they will sense it, and you become a nuisance. Nobody likes a kiss ass. Give only heartfelt compliments. If you are asked for an opinion say what you think, not what you think they want to hear.
Ownership & Distribution - the two words that make men & women wealthy. I’ll explain.
You have heard terms like:
- Sole distributor of xyz
- Majority stakeholder
Haven’t you wondered why these terms always follow rich people?
It is because wealth is about ownership, and how big your distribution network is.
I will explain
The endgame of wealth is to own 100% or at least a portion of something valuable, and then distribute it in such a way that many people spend to use it.
Example - Microsoft (majority stakeholder is Bill Gates) - Ownership
