- 0:00And I'm hoping that you lend me your attention for the minutes
- 0:03that we have and God will bless everyone in Jesus name, Amen and
- 0:08Amen. And so there are a few things
- 0:10that I just want to discuss with us.
- 0:13I Ministries provided me the privilege and the honor to meet
- 0:19really very successful people. I have met Gillon Ayres, I've
- 0:22met very wealthy people. And the advantage you have as a
- 0:28man of God is that you pray for everybody.
- 0:31So I mean, either ways, there were a way of getting close to
- 0:35you. And so sometimes you're amazed
- 0:38at the tremendous things that people are doing from
- 0:40agriculture to tank to real estate and so on and so forth.
- 0:44But there are a few keys that I believe are responsible for the
- 0:52results that we experience in our lives and extending to our
- 0:56various organizations. Thank you.
- 0:59Thank you, Prescott. OK.
- 1:01And I just want to inspire us and challenge us.
- 1:05I know that business and corporate life is not without
- 1:08challenges. And I'm hoping that a few things
- 1:12that I'll be sharing with us will help to drive our companies
- 1:16forward. And of course, at the end of it,
- 1:20who have the opportunity to just receive a prophetic word over
- 1:24our businesses. And I hope we still believe that
- 1:26the prophetic is a contributor to success.
- 1:29Oh, it does. Oh, it does.
- 1:31I'll tell you this up hard. It does, it does.
- 1:35The prophetic is powerful. It's a system of advantage to
- 1:39those who understand how to deploy it.
- 1:42Father, we thank you for this opportunity.
- 1:45I pray that you speak through my lips and.
- 1:47Defy everyone. And I pray in the name of Jesus,
- 1:52that it will be a great experience for us all in Jesus
- 1:57name. So the Bible says the labour of
- 2:01the fool. There is something called the
- 2:03labour of the fool. The fool there not been an
- 2:06insult is a description of a kind of person.
- 2:10And it says the labour of the fool.
- 2:12Weary yet every one of them because he knoweth not how to go
- 2:17to the city. So there is a way to go to the
- 2:21city. But he says it's possible to
- 2:23dissipate energy, and that includes finances.
- 2:27And there are so many people who have the zeal to build
- 2:31businesses, to build organizations.
- 2:33But for many, they do not take the time to learn how to win.
- 2:38I hope you know how to win is a learnable skill, not just how to
- 2:43do business. You can learn how to not fail.
- 2:46You can learn how to win and many people do not take the time
- 2:53to really understand the principles that make for
- 2:57success. Success, I have learned, is
- 3:00programmable. My success at any level is
- 3:04predictable and it rests upon very exact principles.
- 3:11With with razor sharp precision, you can lay hold to the
- 3:16principles that make for success and replicate that result
- 3:21everywhere and anywhere. So I'm not just speaking with
- 3:24him by as to business people alone, some of us are leaders,
- 3:28some of us are probably ministers, some of us are
- 3:30corporates. The principles apply to everyone
- 3:33whatsoever. And I want to sell you a few
- 3:37ideas and a few thoughts and I hope that you'll find at least
- 3:41some of them very meaningful. So here's the first key.
- 3:45The first key I've learned to being successful and allow my
- 3:50bias, speaking as a preacher, is that you have to realize that if
- 3:55God does not become the foundation of your journey,
- 3:59there is no guarantee for sustainable success.
- 4:02And immediately it may not. It may not make sense because
- 4:06our world is full of people who seem to have been successful
- 4:10without God. You see, the thing about success
- 4:13is that it can be very deceiving.
- 4:17For many years you will think you're doing well until one
- 4:20season comes before you. And it can humble everything.
- 4:24We've seen organizations run for decades successfully.
- 4:28They wrote books and I don't want to mention the names of any
- 4:31brands. I hope you're not part of them,
- 4:33but I mean, there are brands that you would never believe
- 4:36would go down and suddenly something happens.
- 4:38You see, the way technology is going should already inform us
- 4:43that if God does not help you, within a year you literally can
- 4:47go out of relevance. One person can come up with one
- 4:50solution and one product that pushes your investment of many
- 4:54years and makes it obsolete. So my conviction is that in
- 4:58desiring to be successful, the first port of call is that you
- 5:03must come to a realization that there is a God in heaven and
- 5:08that your success in life is first and foremost with respect
- 5:12to your connection to Him. Hallelujah.
- 5:15Are we together? I'll show you a portion of
- 5:17Scripture. I'm not sure there's provision
- 5:19to project it, but you just write it for reference.
- 5:22First Chronicles 29 and verse 11 and 12.
- 5:27You may want to take the time when you get back to look at it.
- 5:30It's an acknowledgement of how powerful God is, that all power
- 5:36belongs to Him and that He reigns over all.
- 5:39God is able to pick a man from a dunghill and to set that place,
- 5:44that man among kings and among Princess, and is in the Bible
- 5:48where God himself brought down kings.
- 5:51Kings became animals because of the extent of their Abu Gaz.
- 5:55The Bible even says there is only a fool who says in his
- 5:58heart there is no God. So precious business people,
- 6:02corporate people, in as much as we live in a world today that
- 6:06shies away from anything spirituality.
- 6:09I'm not talking about being a fanatic, I'm talking about a
- 6:13resolve that everyone was created and it is only wise to
- 6:18acknowledge the Creator. The Bible says in Proverbs
- 6:21chapter 3, five to seven, it says trust in the Lord with all
- 6:25your heart and to lean not unto your own understanding.
- 6:29Then it says in all your ways, all your ways acknowledge Him.
- 6:34You know what it means to acknowledge a man.
- 6:37To acknowledge a man means to declare how vulnerable and how
- 6:45the the extent of need, the value, the contribution, the
- 6:50role that man plays in your life to acknowledge him and he says
- 6:54he will direct your path. Then he says be not wise in your
- 6:58own understanding, fear the Lord and turn away from evil.
- 7:02So key number one, business people is called a Kingdom
- 7:06summit. Talks about Kingdom champions.
- 7:09That word Kingdom is very important.
- 7:12It means we are a people who submit to the government of
- 7:15heaven. Hallelujah.
- 7:18Are we still together? So the first key that I want to
- 7:20give us is paving a path. A path that leads to success is
- 7:26that you must acknowledge. God, now many of us here are
- 7:32intelligent people, very learned, many of us are very
- 7:35skilled, very connected. But I can tell you every other
- 7:39factor can be there. And still your business will
- 7:42fail if you. For those of us who read our
- 7:45Bibles, there was a time Peter had his net.
- 7:49The net was there, the boat was there, he was at the right
- 7:53place, the sea, he had the skill, and yet he did not catch
- 7:57fish. There are times every variable,
- 7:59you check all the boxes. And in a very strange way it was
- 8:03still not adult. It is as such times you will
- 8:07meet the hand of God who can move over you.
- 8:10And perhaps a business is struggling.
- 8:12Yeah, you've done everything you know to do.
- 8:14I'm praying that as you listen, in the name of Jesus, may grace
- 8:18come on your business, and it would take that business to new
- 8:22highs. You believe that?
- 8:23Say Amen. Don't be ashamed of saying Amen.
- 8:26Say it well, say Amen, Praise God.
- 8:31So the first key is that you must pay the price to know God.
- 8:35Daniel 1132 But the people that do know their God, they shall be
- 8:41strong and they shall do exploit.
- 8:44I'll tell you this, we have a narrative that there are many
- 8:47people. Who?
- 8:48Do not subscribe to spirituality and yet are successful.
- 8:54I don't mean to insult your intelligence, but I have
- 8:57interacted with billionaires. I've interacted with very
- 9:00wealthy people. That narrative is not true.
- 9:04It's not. It's not true.
- 9:07Everybody bows to something, even in the name of that sorting
- 9:13is yourself. Everybody bouts to something.
- 9:17Are we together? Trace the name of the law for a
- 9:20hinder, enviable sustainable results you see in the lives of
- 9:23people they may inaugurate in public.
- 9:26But take my word for it, there is no one who excels beyond a
- 9:31certain threshold nationally, transcontinentally, without an
- 9:37allegiance to the realm of the spirit.
- 9:39It's not true, it's not true, it's not true.
- 9:43I have prayed for many people. I have counselled many noble
- 9:47people. Some of them have opened up
- 9:49sincerely. You will be amazed at the things
- 9:52that people have done behind the scene, away from the board
- 9:56rules, away from all of the public conversations.
- 10:00So settle it once and for all that if you see a man rise above
- 10:05and beyond a certain threshold, it only reveals that a spirit
- 10:09has come in partnership with you, either a demonic spirit or
- 10:13God himself. But no man unassisted by his
- 10:16spirit can rise beyond a certain threshold.
- 10:21Do you agree with that #2 Very quickly.
- 10:24The second key that I'll give us in this business forum is that
- 10:28you must contend for transformer.
- 10:33You must contend for transformation.
- 10:37Superior beliefs, superior beliefs and I'm I'm happy these
- 10:42kinds of conversations. I was just appreciating Reverend
- 10:46Julian for putting this kind of follow.
- 10:48These are the kinds of conversations that need to go
- 10:51on, especially across the African continent.
- 10:54I'll tell you this. The Bible says let this mind be
- 10:58in here, which was also in Christ Jesus.
- 11:02Did you know that if you have a a loser's mentality, you don't
- 11:07need a demonic attack? You will fail.
- 11:09Satan does not even need to waste his time around me.
- 11:12Are we together? You will never succeed beyond
- 11:16your perception. You will never succeed beyond
- 11:19your mentality. And most people do not take the
- 11:22time to probe. Into the.
- 11:24Health of their mindset, desiring to do business.
- 11:29It takes more than the ability to create products and services.
- 11:33Everything is built twice, first in your mind and then physically
- 11:38destroy anything that is built but was not destroyed in the
- 11:41mind. You only wasted your time.
- 11:43Everything is built. Twice I'm inspired by Genesis
- 11:4711. Very interesting story.
- 11:50The Bible talks about the building of the Tower of Babel
- 11:53and in that statement in that. Story The Holy Spirit is not
- 11:58mentioned, a demon spirit is not mentioned, just men and their
- 12:03minds. And they insisted to build a
- 12:06tower that took only God to destroy.
- 12:10I can tell you this, the mind of man is a miracle.
- 12:14I have invested a major part of my life studying the mind.
- 12:18I have studied the mind from the standpoint of philosophies, from
- 12:22psychology, not just religion. I have read books.
- 12:26I have investigated this miracle of the mind.
- 12:29And so, with all due respect, I'm not speaking in ignorance.
- 12:32This is not his preacher speaking.
- 12:34I understand a bit about how the mind works.
- 12:37It's impossible to limit a man who has invested in transforming
- 12:42his mind. I'll tell you how the mind
- 12:45works, ladies and gentlemen. Sir.
- 12:48Isaac Newton postulated many theories in his study of
- 12:52mechanics. He studied universal bodies and
- 12:56he came up with a few postulations. 1 of it is called
- 12:59the Universal law of Gravitation, and here's what it
- 13:02says, that everybody in the universe attracts every other
- 13:07body. My apologies to those who are
- 13:10not science based. With a force which for any 2
- 13:12bodies for instance, is directly proportional to the product of
- 13:17their masses and inversely proportional to the square of
- 13:21the distance between them. I'll give you in a layman's tab
- 13:25what that means. Now listen very carefully.
- 13:30What that means is that every entity on earth.
- 13:34Exhibits magnetic properties. Not just anybody, provided that
- 13:41entity is on earth that includes you, that you exhibit magnetic
- 13:46properties, and that everything you are looking for is also
- 13:51looking for you. But not this fashion of you.
- 13:55So there is a fashion of you that your balls are looking for.
- 14:00And if they do not find that version, they will never come to
- 14:03pass. Who is learning?
- 14:05So we have all kinds of grape drinks.
- 14:07The thing about success is not really the results.
- 14:10That is rewarding is the kind of person who needs to change to
- 14:15achieve that result. That's the most rewarding part
- 14:18in the journey to be successful. It's not achieving the goals or
- 14:22the transformation it will require.
- 14:25The person who knows becomes the final product at the point of
- 14:29receiving. Your goal achieved is more
- 14:32important than the goal achieved.
- 14:33Do you understand what I just said?
- 14:35Yes. So you must contend for
- 14:37transformation. We have all kinds of limiting
- 14:40beliefs in Africa. We have all kinds of limiting
- 14:43beliefs among businesses. Who would have believed that
- 14:47some young boys will come up with an idea called Facebook,
- 14:51come up with an idea called, I mean, Elon Musk and all of these
- 14:55guys? Did you know that their ideas
- 14:58have had more participation even than the Christian faith?
- 15:02We have about 2.6 billion professing presents on earth out
- 15:07of the over 8.2 billion people on earth right now. 2.6 billion.
- 15:14We're not talking of butt sliders.
- 15:16We're not talking of Sulo Christian sex.
- 15:18I mean everything is in that mix.
- 15:20So 2.6 is not really. If you filter everything out,
- 15:24you will still cry again. So let's let's have the 2.6
- 15:28billion. And how many of you know how
- 15:31many people subscribe to Facebook, how many people
- 15:35subscribe to I mean, you, you can't you.
- 15:39We need to think. We need to stretch our minds.
- 15:42Tell someone, stretch. Say it again, say stretch again,
- 15:46say stretch. You see, we have a lot of
- 15:50subsistence thinking in Africa and all we are concerned about
- 15:55is making my immediate environment fine.
- 15:58So you see a lot of dreams that don't expect to last.
- 16:01I don't know how it is in East African care, but back in
- 16:04Nigeria we hardly have. 3rd. Or 4th generation anything.
- 16:09It starts and ties with the founders.
- 16:13I don't know if that's the experience here.
- 16:16You see that now. Visions don't outlast the people
- 16:19who begin it, because there was no plan for for succession.
- 16:25The people just wanted to be comfortable.
- 16:27They were tired of poverty and insisted that they will find a
- 16:30way out. And after finding a way out,
- 16:32they didn't care what happened again.
- 16:34And you find out that people have great visions.
- 16:37They rise and fall. In their lifetime.
- 16:40It's a mentality. You go to the West, you see
- 16:43visions that are hundreds of years old in sustained by
- 16:47intelligent mindsets. I'm praying for you that any
- 16:50limited belief you have that is keeping you small.
- 16:54Is that gentleman here, Reverend Julian, the gentleman who does
- 16:57the fish, is he here? Where are you?
- 16:59You see this gentleman. Let me just using for for I mean
- 17:02stance. I was so impressed to know, for
- 17:05example, that. I think 2 years, two years ago,
- 17:09you came to Ray Murphy's with how much, $300?
- 17:15And right now? I understand he's one of the
- 17:18biggest importers, exporters of tilapia.
- 17:24Two years. Listen, I don't believe in get
- 17:29rich quick, but I also don't believe in get rich slow because
- 17:34your life is a function of time and you don't have all the time.
- 17:39Spending the rest of your life chasing after money is a course
- 17:42I tell you on time. You'll never be able to make
- 17:46Kingdom influence if your goal is just money.
- 17:49And so it's important to get that thing out of the way on
- 17:51time so you can live a meaningful life making a
- 17:54difference in people. I'm using his situation as a
- 18:00case study that in two years a man can transit from $400.00,
- 18:06and now he's leading the field. Please sit.
- 18:09We need to be careful. The kinds of narratives we
- 18:12receive. You can't believe.
- 18:15No, no, please don't get me wrong, I'm not, I'm not trying
- 18:17to insult your intelligence. But there are people who think,
- 18:22do you know in Africa we rejoice over we rejoice or we frown at
- 18:31people when they succeed early. It's a subliminal programming.
- 18:36My, my apologies. I hope I'm not turning tables
- 18:39here. I come in good faith.
- 18:40You see, you go to China and you go to other parts of the world.
- 18:44You see teenagers doing things. You'll be surprised.
- 18:48Some of the things we brag about is commonplace in some of these
- 18:51regions because there is a programming, it takes up the
- 18:55lead of their mind early. We need to begin to re engineer.
- 18:59Ourselves in Africa and across the business space to know that
- 19:04our limitations are engineered by our mindsets.
- 19:09If you can take off that lead, only God knows what you can do.
- 19:14I made-up my mind as a young person that my only limit in
- 19:17life will be the voice of God and process.
- 19:20I don't see mountains. They don't exist in my world.
- 19:23I literally mean it. Mountains.
- 19:25No, they don't exist in my world.
- 19:29So look at your business from where it is now.
- 19:32Are you able to scale 100% in one year, In two years?
- 19:38There you go. You see your mind.
- 19:40A part of it wants to agree, but a part of it is saying I
- 19:43possibly you are joking. It is on to you according to
- 19:48your faith. I'm here to challenge someone.
- 19:50You can double, triple, quadruple your annual returns.
- 19:54I'm telling you, I'm challenging somewhere, whether it's in the
- 19:58oil and gas, whether it's in real estate, provided there is a
- 20:02demand. So before we talk of products
- 20:06and services, it's important for us to know that reengineering
- 20:10your mind, having a winner's mindset, a winner's mindset.
- 20:16You must go ahead and begin to walk upon your beliefs.
- 20:20Take it off the lead. No organization rises above the
- 20:24mentality of its founder, your organization.
- 20:28Will rise and peg itself at your mentality.
- 20:34So I'm challenging someone to be angry.
- 20:37Please can I have this bottle of water?
- 20:40Thank you not to drink. Tempting.
- 20:43Now look at this. How many of you know that
- 20:46whoever is the, the, the the company behind this, there are
- 20:52people who have become do you know the annual turnover for
- 20:56water in Kenya who has kept find out, do you know the annual
- 21:01turnover for just water business?
- 21:04What I'm using something we all have that is 70% across the old
- 21:08the earth. We're not talking of oil, We're
- 21:10not talking of corn or whatever. It is just water.
- 21:14There are people who have become billionaires in dollars with
- 21:18this. Now what's the difference
- 21:20between this one and the one in the river?
- 21:24Someone believed that you could turn something that is so
- 21:28abundant and yet make. People pay for it.
- 21:34Whether you believe you are able to or you believe you are not
- 21:38able to, you are right. I.
- 21:48Listened to Earl Nightingale. Earl Nightingale was reported to
- 21:54be Dean of personal development, one of the people who have
- 21:58influenced the personal development of of, you know,
- 22:02industry, industry and ride from Napoleon Hill, you know, Earl
- 22:09Nightingale, Bob Proctor, all of these guys.
- 22:12And he gave a story. And I want to give that
- 22:14illustration just to end this point.
- 22:17But a gentleman was coming into a new territory and he just
- 22:21walked in and saw a farmer just trying to walk on his garden.
- 22:25And he said, I'm a young fellow, can I have a word with you?
- 22:27And he said, yes, Sir. He said, I hear this territory
- 22:30is full of crime, rape, bad people.
- 22:33I hear things don't work in this territory.
- 22:37And the farmer looked at the man, took a breath and said, it
- 22:40is true, You are right. Then the man left.
- 22:43A few hours later, another man came jumping, almost could not
- 22:47hold his breath, excited. And he said, my young farmer,
- 22:50can I talk with you? And he said yes.
- 22:52He said I hear this place is. Full of lovely.
- 22:54People, you are people with nice nightlife, you are happy people.
- 22:59Is that true? And he took a breath.
- 23:01He said yes, you are right. Both people came and they found
- 23:05whatever they were looking for was available in that place.
- 23:09So if you are in Kenyan, you believe all that is here is
- 23:13poverty, failure, rape, crime. You said that, he didn't say
- 23:19that. But if you believe that there's
- 23:23abundance and your portion is also there, there's increase.
- 23:27You are right now it's up to you to believe.
- 23:31Are we together? Say this after me.
- 23:33Say I believe I am victorious. Say it against that I believe I
- 23:39can scale heights in business. Absolutely.
- 23:44The power of a superior belief system.
- 23:47Jesus believed he could save the world, and he did.
- 23:50He didn't just die because he came from God.
- 23:52He believed he could do it #3 very quickly.
- 23:57The third key that will enable us to be strategically
- 24:01successful is that we must invest in strategic knowledge.
- 24:06Please write that down. Investing in a change of mind is
- 24:10not the same as investing in knowledge.
- 24:14They work closely, but they are not the same.
- 24:17There are three. Levels of knowledge everyone
- 24:19must get acquired in order to succeed, and I'll give that
- 24:23quickly #1 the highest is the knowledge of God #2 is the
- 24:28knowledge of the laws and the principles that govern the
- 24:32universe. Please do not forget this, the
- 24:35knowledge of the laws and the principles that govern the
- 24:41universe. And then the third level of
- 24:43knowledge is knowledge in your area.
- 24:47The technical knowledge needed to run your business.
- 24:50You see that most people make a lot of mistakes.
- 24:53They just focus on the area of business and they think they're
- 24:57knowledgeable enough. No, you need to understand the
- 25:00laws and the principles that govern the universe.
- 25:05How many of you know? Please look up this this.
- 25:09An elevation here, but not no, for instance.
- 25:12Assuming I were not, I were not aware of gravity and I just.
- 25:18Took a step by mistake. Would gravity forgive my
- 25:21ignorance? It assumes that I chose to fall.
- 25:25Am I right or not? Now, I may be a sincere person,
- 25:29but I will still fall. If you do not understand the
- 25:32laws of the universe, you will feel woefully, even if you are
- 25:37skilled. So there are many skilled
- 25:39people, there are many gifted people who do not understand the
- 25:44laws. I'll give an example.
- 25:46Violating just one law called the Law of Honor can make you a
- 25:50failure forever. Even if you are productive, the
- 25:54law of honor can close a door. Another law, the law of protocol
- 25:59to understand the system of protocol as per every
- 26:03environment, when Pharaoh or Joseph was going to stand before
- 26:08Pharaoh, he had to shave himself because Egyptians did not keep
- 26:11beards. If you do not understand
- 26:14protocol, your product will never get.
- 26:17Into certain quarters, I'm just. Sharing with you a few.
- 26:20Laws are we, are we together #3 is the law of conversation.
- 26:25Words are powerful. Nations have gone to war because
- 26:29someone did not know how to speak right?
- 26:33There are people today who have become billionaires not because
- 26:36of the dexterity of their products, but conversation we're
- 26:39not doing. Unfortunately, we may not have
- 26:42the time to do leadership, but I'll tell you this, there are 5
- 26:46levels of conversation. I'll give you only two and hope
- 26:49that you figure. The rest out.
- 26:52You must know how to speak 2 people.
- 26:57You must know how to speak with people.
- 27:02You must know how to speak for people.
- 27:06You must know how to speak through people.
- 27:10Not knowing this alone will turn you into a failure.
- 27:13There are certain conversations that should be said, but not by
- 27:17you. And if you do not know how to
- 27:20speak through people, you will lose partners in business.
- 27:25Are we together? It will become an enemy of many,
- 27:28many governments and many rival businesses.
- 27:31Because if you speak to everyone, you are already in
- 27:35era. There are people you should
- 27:37never speak to. To speak to means to give you
- 27:40the structures. There are people you speak with
- 27:44as team spirit you help. Them understand that I'm not
- 27:48just. Here, to give you instructions,
- 27:51what we are billed as together. You must know how to speak for,
- 27:56to defend the interests of your partners, to understand the
- 28:01principles of being an ally. Your mission goes to war, except
- 28:05and unless they verify that their allies are with them.
- 28:09To speak for them. You must know how to speak
- 28:12through people. So many leaders just not
- 28:17understanding the law of conversation.
- 28:19You find out that you have your products, you have your services
- 28:23and the person you should speak for, the person you should speak
- 28:27with, are we together? You are now speaking too.
- 28:33So you come desiring to have your product coming to Kenya,
- 28:38same from India say from somewhere in Africa and then?
- 28:43You meet a lot of people who are already successful and you speak
- 28:46to them. Unfortunately, the product will
- 28:49not get there because you give them instructions.
- 28:53You do not become successful at your own towns.
- 28:58That's just an example. Is someone learning now, Presco.
- 29:01There are laws of the universe, the law of patience, for
- 29:04instance. The law of insistence.
- 29:07You know what it? States.
- 29:08If you insist on a door, it will.
- 29:11Open. In fact, there are certain
- 29:15doors. If they open too early, it's
- 29:18most likely the door to a prison.
- 29:24Someone learning? How about the law of growth that
- 29:30everything will rise to much 11 of growth.
- 29:33Success is not what you pursue. If you're seeking success,
- 29:37you're already failing. Success is what you attract not
- 29:40just by what you buy and sell, but by who you become.
- 29:44Who you become is a greater variable in determining your
- 29:47success than what you do. It's not really what you do that
- 29:52makes you successful is who is doing it.
- 29:56Who you become is of greater value to your becoming
- 30:00successful. Are we together?
- 30:03It's true. So I'm just giving you an
- 30:05example that you must go for knowledge.
- 30:08Most business people focus only on the area of the products and
- 30:12the services that they provide, and you find out that they fail
- 30:16in understanding the fundamental laws that make for success.
- 30:21Their conversations are wrong, but their products are
- 30:24exceptional and they wonder why it's not received.
- 30:28You see, it's a business. Forum.
- 30:30So I have the liberty to. I'll not stay for too long, so
- 30:34don't worry. I mean, we'll find somewhere.
- 30:40Are we together? Now I'll tell you something
- 30:43about wealthy people. I know many of us are wealthy,
- 30:47but there are there is a psychology in selling ideas or
- 30:52products to people. Poor people always think cost.
- 30:58The language of a poor person is how much it doesn't matter.
- 31:01For a difference of $1.00. They come pick something, no
- 31:06matter how sick or whatever it is.
- 31:09They are motivated primarily by cost.
- 31:12Middle class people are motivated by value, so they will
- 31:18pay for it, but you must give them a reason.
- 31:21How is that better than this? Wealthy people are motivated by
- 31:25experience. That's the reason why you can
- 31:29put tati toils in the penthouse of a hotel.
- 31:32Who needs tati toilets? What for?
- 31:36You know, the person is not going to use tati toils, but
- 31:39there's the experience. So if they're eating, they eat
- 31:43with their mind, then they eat with their mouth.
- 31:45So the person serving is as important as what has been
- 31:48served. Now you come to a poor person
- 31:50and it's not an insult. I hope you, the person is also
- 31:53bringing it is $1.00. Let me have it.
- 31:55I need to get that out of the way.
- 31:58The middle class people think value so they will buy, but you
- 32:02need to have a conversation. So tell me why I should buy this
- 32:06for $10 as against this for $8 and you?
- 32:09Tell the person, well I can tell you that this is a product of
- 32:12the latest research is this and that and that and oh I see, OK,
- 32:16I will have it now just knowing this already cultures how you
- 32:20sell. If you sell to everybody at the
- 32:23same level, be sure you will not rise to certain heights.
- 32:28This is consultancy one O 1 free of size.
- 32:30I put together praise the name of the Lord.
- 32:36So there are all kinds of people trying to sell to everybody.
- 32:39And then the person is looking shabby.
- 32:41He does not believe in his vision.
- 32:43He cannot. If you cannot tell me what you
- 32:46are selling in 2 minutes, I don't take you serious.
- 32:52Is that? Harsh.
- 32:53My apologies. But if you cannot tell me, I
- 32:56mean it if I pick someone right now and I say what do you do if
- 33:01you cannot articulate your value in 2 minutes?
- 33:05Go back to the drawing board. It means we're not ready for a
- 33:08conversation. Oh well.
- 33:10What? I do is that I, I really I, I do
- 33:15a lot of things and it comes out and, and, and so I, I, I.
- 33:19Do all kinds of things and I'm into real estate.
- 33:22What does that mean? You see, every man's need is his
- 33:28point of connection. If you cannot show me how I need
- 33:31you in 2 minutes, then you most likely will not get my
- 33:35attention. Everybody who really is wealthy
- 33:37and has money is busy. You must master the art of
- 33:41securing the attention of people.
- 33:43The first key to influence is attention.
- 33:46If you cannot secure a man's attention, then you are not
- 33:49going to be able to sell any idea to them.
- 33:52Is the reason why they invest billions in branding products.
- 33:56You see that now? So if I'm to sell you something
- 33:59in 5 minutes and I come and say get this, this is good for you,
- 34:02poor poor. Marketing.
- 34:05You'll not get. Anybody's attention that way?
- 34:07Someone comes and he's 2 minutes.
- 34:09He tells you there's a statistics of people who are
- 34:11dying because of bad water. And he shows you a now, now that
- 34:16that gets to you, bad water. So many people have died because
- 34:20of bad water, children and men. And it's said that this, this is
- 34:24for taking bad water. You have a 50% chance of getting
- 34:27cancer before 15. Now you're getting my attention
- 34:31in 2 minutes. I, I don't really believe in it,
- 34:38unfortunately, but it's one, it's a very potent marketing
- 34:40principle. Unfortunately, people make you
- 34:44aware of the problem and they bring the solutions.
- 34:48Because if they bring the solution you don't understand
- 34:50the gravity of the investment that went into it.
- 34:52You most likely. Frown out the price so they make
- 34:55you see what you would have gone through without their.
- 34:58Help. Then they now say here I come,
- 35:01and then you run at. It are we together?
- 35:06Please go for knowledge. Go for knowledge.
- 35:08I'll tell you this the primary assignment for those of you who
- 35:12are founders CFOSCEOS. And everything you know,
- 35:16executive, top executives learn to delegate so that you can have
- 35:23time to think and do that organization.
- 35:27If you do not master the art of delegation, you will run down
- 35:31your organization. There are people who are so
- 35:33insecure they cannot trust others with certain, you know,
- 35:36things. They want to make sure they put
- 35:38their eye everywhere. Your organization will fold to
- 35:41reflect your insecurity. You must trust.
- 35:44People and then you are now able to innovate.
- 35:47To think I was in San Antonio and whilst just to fly from
- 35:54there to Canada and we're having a conversation with my host and
- 35:59he said something. He said they were invited for a
- 36:01meeting in America there and they were shown in technology
- 36:06that will only come in 2035. What they give, they give, they
- 36:12call the group of them and they give them a simulation of that
- 36:15technology 2030. 5. When President Jonathan, the
- 36:23former president in Nigeria, was the president, he went to Israel
- 36:28and they had a conversation with Benjamin Netanyahu and Netanyahu
- 36:32told him that the rice that Israel will eat.
- 36:36For the next 15 years was already on ground 15.
- 36:40Years on ground. It takes knowledge.
- 36:47It takes knowledge. You must know what to do.
- 36:50You must know how to package your valid in a way that serves
- 36:55and in a way that sells. Is someone learning?
- 36:58Go back and be be the brightest in your area.
- 37:03Don't be ignorant. No, if you cannot explain what
- 37:07you are doing, the value that you bring to the table in 2
- 37:10minutes, you don't know it enough.
- 37:14Please go. So just don't feel embarrassed.
- 37:20Sir, what do you do? Can I ask you to start, please?
- 37:24What do you do? Yes.
- 37:27OK. Well, you are upstanding.
- 37:28What do you do in one minute? No, don't, don't.
- 37:32Don't try to be nice. Just the products, not What do
- 37:35you do? Do we sell commercial real
- 37:37estate? You sell commercial real estate.
- 37:38OK, that's fine. That's all right.
- 37:39Please sit. What do you do, Sir?
- 37:42Yes. You're businessman or you're
- 37:48just. OK?
- 37:48OK, so that's fine. Please sit.
- 37:51Who is? Who is?
- 37:52Into real estate. Here.
- 37:53Let me see your hands. Now.
- 37:55When you say real estate, what exactly do you do?
- 37:58You sell houses, you build, You are an agent.
- 38:01Commercial properties. What exactly do you do?
- 38:05The development sell homes, see it mention for me the top 10 or
- 38:11the top three real estate companies in Eastern Africa.
- 38:17Don't answer, don't answer, just think about it.
- 38:24Do you have the answer? Can you tell me?
- 38:27Can you tell me the most thriving real estate companies?
- 38:30Now, who is into agriculture? Just for instance, any agro,
- 38:36allied packaging, processing, farming, whatever it is you see,
- 38:40if you cannot tell me the top three people in your field, I
- 38:44don't consider you serious. It means you've not taken time
- 38:48to respect their sacrifice. What took them to the top?
- 38:51How then, do you want to get there?
- 38:56Is someone learning now? So if, for instance, you're a
- 39:02journalist. Who are some?
- 39:04Of the brightest minds of journalists in Kenya.
- 39:07Do you know them? I'm saying this because it's
- 39:09going to lead me to the next point.
- 39:10I want to teach you the law of relationships.
- 39:13You are as fortunate as those who believe in you.
- 39:17You are as fortunate as those who are willing to invest their
- 39:21time, their energy, their credibility in supporting your
- 39:24vision. I'll tell you this.
- 39:27Most people think that just because you have a brilliant
- 39:31idea, a brilliant product, a brilliant service, it then means
- 39:36you will sell, you will scale and you will make money and you
- 39:40will do well. Unfortunately, not some of the
- 39:43people today. Who?
- 39:45Are turning over to the billions may not necessarily be the most
- 39:49competent people in the field but I want you to know that
- 39:53selling business is relationships this is true it's
- 39:58true who hates. You does not matter, but who
- 40:02likes you matters or truly, truly are we together praise the
- 40:08name of the Lord. So you must.
- 40:11Invest in strategic quality relationships.
- 40:15If you're writing, let that be the next point.
- 40:17I hope I'm I'm. Contributing something to your
- 40:19time my wasting your time. Strategic Relationships.
- 40:24You must know how to build alliances, and I'll tell you
- 40:28this, in building relationships, when people perceive you to be a
- 40:33parasite, you're already in trouble.
- 40:36The best way to build relationships is to be a
- 40:39contributor. Don't come and slap it on the
- 40:43faces of people. They know you don't love them,
- 40:45they're just hoping to use you as a ladder or you are trying to
- 40:49use them as a ladder to achieve goals.
- 40:51Don't find what you mean immediately.
- 40:53You must love people genuinely and invest in people genuinely.
- 40:58I'll tell you this, when I train our leaders, there are 4
- 41:01expressions. I hope I bring them very
- 41:03quickly. Also, Julian, as subtle as these
- 41:07expressions are, I read many years ago, the book by Dale
- 41:12Carnegie, How to Win Friends and Influence People.
- 41:15How many of you have read that many, many years ago?
- 41:18And I think it's a book worth reading.
- 41:21And you need to understand the law of relationships.
- 41:25And I would later come up with four expressions that are power.
- 41:32Keys to maintaining relationships.
- 41:34I've done many teachings across the subject of relationships,
- 41:38but I'll give you 4 of them and I want to experiment it right
- 41:41now. The first is thank you.
- 41:44Write that word down or that expression.
- 41:47You will be surprised how your turnover can triple and
- 41:51quadruple because you train your people to understand the power
- 41:56of gratitude. Everyone say thank you.
- 42:00Once again, say thank you. Thank you is a declaration of
- 42:03your respect for the value that people bring to your life and to
- 42:08your organization. Are we together?
- 42:11Thank you. Now someone comes to your
- 42:13restaurant and there's a system to say.
- 42:16Thanks for coming. Don't just tell them.
- 42:18Come again. No, come again is not a wise
- 42:22expression. Thank you for coming.
- 42:24Has already made them indebted to you.
- 42:27Gratitude is powerful. It has a multiplied effect when
- 42:32you tell people thank you. It's there's a psychology tweet.
- 42:36Aside from the fact that it it's a God like behaviour, it makes
- 42:41people know you are genuinely interested.
- 42:43It makes people know and perceive that the value they
- 42:46bring before you is appreciated. They will come again.
- 42:50Everyone say thank you, don't be embarrassed say thank you.
- 42:54Maybe not to be try to your neighbor say thank you.
- 42:58Thank you. Thank you for thinking.
- 43:03Never take people for granted. Thank you, Sir.
- 43:07Thank you. Someone helps you to do
- 43:09something. They help you to lift a burden.
- 43:12They help to accelerate a registration of your company.
- 43:15They help you to drop one process.
- 43:17Take the time to say thank you. I'll tell you something about
- 43:20gratitude. Gratitude was much the sacrifice
- 43:23invested. So if I give you $100 and we say
- 43:28thank you, if I give you $10,000, you say thank you.
- 43:32If I give you $1,000,000 and you say thank you, you are not
- 43:35grateful because their mouths are not the same that listen.
- 43:38In saying thank you, you must insist that the person you are
- 43:42communicating gratitude to perceives that you are truly
- 43:46grateful. You can get that.
- 43:54If someone is kind to you 20 times, how many times do you say
- 43:57thank you? 20.
- 43:59You don't use one. Thank you and say I hope it
- 44:01covers from January to December. You were nice to me.
- 44:06I mean you brought 500 million to my company and I'm really
- 44:11very happy about that. And just to let you know.
- 44:14That I'm grateful. No, thank you, Sir.
- 44:17God bless you. You can't say thank you #2 very
- 44:21quickly. I hope I'm not wasting your
- 44:22time. I'm sorry.
- 44:24Write that one down. Or that expression.
- 44:27I'm sorry can deliver companies from losses and pay.
- 44:32I'm sorry is a declaration that you are human, that systems can
- 44:36fail. Are we together now?
- 44:38Never be embarrassed the that God like perfection may not
- 44:43easily. Exist with you.
- 44:45There are few businesses that do not have administrative lacuna
- 44:49or whatever it is. And when you find out that you
- 44:52fall short of a standard, don't argue, don't try to waste your
- 44:56time. Many times will remain.
- 44:59If you can say I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- 45:02Could be a letter. I'm really sorry things went
- 45:05bad. I hear my staff treated you bad.
- 45:08I'm truly sorry, I take responsibility for this.
- 45:11You can be sure to make sure that this does not repeat itself
- 45:15again. And the clients say I want to
- 45:17work 50 years with this man. Many emerging businesses do not
- 45:23know that your product can be exceptional, but your character.
- 45:27And your behaviour can put a seal.
- 45:30On your growth, I'm sorry. It's a declaration that we're
- 45:33all human. Like we say to air is human or
- 45:36to forgive is divine. Now you try it, let's say
- 45:38together say I'm sorry it didn't do anything, but just say it.
- 45:43Say I'm sorry. I will nothing.
- 45:49The third word Very. Quickly please TLEASE please.
- 46:00It's a declaration of courtesy. It shows that you have trained
- 46:05yourself and you are qualified to speak in certain quarters.
- 46:09The word please is a profound expression of respect for
- 46:14people. Don't tell someone call me back.
- 46:20Who are you and why should I call you back?
- 46:22I am the CEO of XYZ. Call me back.
- 46:25And you caught the call and with the cutting of that call, you
- 46:28lost $1,000,000. Please, a declaration of
- 46:32courtesy. Please.
- 46:33Could you just adjust for a moment?
- 46:35I'm so sorry. Please could you give me 5
- 46:38minutes? I'll be back.
- 46:39I have respect for your time of 5 minutes.
- 46:42Again, Say please, everyone, say please.
- 46:47Now the final word. There are two more.
- 46:51God bless you. It's largely for spiritual
- 46:53people. There are people who are not
- 46:54interested in God bless you. But at least it's good to law
- 46:58now the last. Should I teach you?
- 47:01I wouldn't teach you that they were.
- 47:10I'm sorry, we are peacekeeping. OK, OK.
- 47:15Thank you very much. Your your attention.
- 47:18My my apology. Just this.
- 47:20Thank you. Thank you.
- 47:21That's that's fine. That's fine.
- 47:22That's fine. That's fine.
- 47:26For the last, you have to find a way to give it a business
- 47:29context. It's actually the expression I
- 47:32love you, but that's why I said that.
- 47:33That's. That's a reason no one around
- 47:35telling everyone I love you and someone will told me I said do
- 47:38you. Really mean it?
- 47:41You mean it? I thought it was business now.
- 47:44The whole idea, Medina. Dear sorrow, Julia.
- 47:53I hope I'm not messing up your business now.
- 47:57You'll find a way of communicating now.
- 47:59Yes, yes, here's. The point.
- 48:00The point is not saying I love you.
- 48:02The point is, people do not care how much you know until they
- 48:09know how much you care. I'll say that again.
- 48:13People do not care how much you know until they know how much
- 48:20you can. People may forget what you say,
- 48:24but they'll never forget how they felt in your presence.
- 48:30I'll do an experiment. Sir, please may I politely ask
- 48:34you, is that your wife? Please may I request that you
- 48:38all stand and come? Here's what I want you all to
- 48:40do. Please give these two people a
- 48:43resaudy round of appeals and don't stop.
- 48:46Please girl, Sir, please tell me.
- 48:48Keep claping them, Sir. Keep claping, then stop.
- 48:54Flap it. Don't stop.
- 48:57Did Gabby go ahead? Don't stop.
- 49:03Now. Watch this.
- 49:05Thank you. Thank you.
- 49:06This is an experiment. Do you think they felt good now?
- 49:12It didn't matter what they did or what they did do, though.
- 49:16I politely requested husband and wife that they come stand here
- 49:20are we together and I ask you to celebrate them.
- 49:23Now you talk against me to them and watch their response.
- 49:31You meet this man and this woman and say this man is a bad man.
- 49:35Don't patronize. The business is dead on arrival.
- 49:39I've implanted a memory in them. That I love them, That I care
- 49:43for them. Are you seeing that now?
- 49:47The highest psychological need of every man You may write this
- 49:50down. The highest psychological need
- 49:54of every man is the need to feel loved, the need to feel valued,
- 49:59the need to feel appreciated. The highest psychological need,
- 50:04including the person listening to me, including the person
- 50:06typing or writing while I speak, is to be loved, to be valued,
- 50:13and to be appreciated. Please do not forget Loved,
- 50:19valued, appreciated. Please look up if your products
- 50:24cannot. Heal that psychological urge,
- 50:28that need then you will not thrive.
- 50:30You cannot be a leader in the field.
- 50:33So it's an experiment and thank you, by the way, very.
- 50:36Much you see that now so. I'm asking this man and his dear
- 50:42wife to come stand, and then you celebrate them.
- 50:46I didn't see any of you frowning while you were clapping.
- 50:50You were clapping for them, and yet it made you smile.
- 50:53That's the power of love. Every culture, every race, every
- 50:59religion, it doesn't matter who. You can become a billionaire
- 51:03showing love. Love is a stream of incomes.
- 51:12We're together. Let's celebrate them again.
- 51:15Thank you. OK, so they flew all the way
- 51:23from India to come and meet you. They flew all the way from India
- 51:27to come and meet me. You see that?
- 51:30Let me imagine this. Everything else, they flew all
- 51:35the way from India. The whole family.
- 51:39The whole family. You see that now?
- 51:42That means I have a home in India.
- 51:46I got myself real estate by showing it on.
- 51:51I'll tell you this, never make people feel worse than they
- 51:55already feel and make sure your organization does not do that in
- 52:01seeking to drive profit. Respect the emotions, the
- 52:05feelings of people. Sometimes we're obsessed about
- 52:09making profits. We cause people to bleed while
- 52:13the dollars keep adding to our tables.
- 52:16It's important to be thoughtful, to be cautious, and that's the
- 52:20reason why any organization that rises beyond a certain threshold
- 52:24and cannot tell me what community development projects
- 52:28they're involved with, I don't have respect for them.
- 52:31I'm sorry, but that's the truth. I need to see that you're not
- 52:34just taking what you are giving back may not be much, but do
- 52:39something. It's always one person at a
- 52:42time. Is someone learning.
- 52:46Let me give you one more key and I'm done.
- 52:49So we spoke about a number of things, acknowledging God as the
- 52:53basis, as the first key. Second, contending for a
- 52:57superior mindset. Still remember #3 that you
- 53:01contend for knowledge, understanding the laws of the
- 53:04universe, and then of course, your skill to be productive and
- 53:09all of that be given to continuous learning #4 master
- 53:13relationships. You must master relationships.
- 53:16And I'll tell you this, I come to Kea all the time #1 because I
- 53:21love Kea. I really do.
- 53:23I really got those KLT Kea's. You can love the tea and love
- 53:28love the people. I love both the tea and the
- 53:30people. In fact, I had a cup of tea
- 53:32before coming here. Kenyan tea, Kenyan tea.
- 53:35So. And then there's Kenya in me.
- 53:38So are we together? But I'm here because of my
- 53:42relationship with Pastor Julian. He's a good man, so.
- 53:51Many of you share. Travel around for senior
- 53:54executive business meetings and you know that sometimes it's not
- 53:58a money issue. There are people who have gone
- 54:01through years of pain to aggregate and distill knowledge.
- 54:05Doesn't matter how much you have, you don't pay for those
- 54:08things with money. You pay for it with
- 54:10relationships built over years. You you see it now.
- 54:15There are 6 currencies. We used to be wealthy.
- 54:18Money is the least of them. If all you have is money, you
- 54:21are poor because there are things money cannot buy.
- 54:26There are certain things you purchase in life when you bring
- 54:29money life or say no, you need to pay with relationships,
- 54:34strategic relationships, everything money can buy,
- 54:38relationships can buy. You see that?
- 54:42And I'm telling you this, for some of you who are here,
- 54:46network in a very, a very productive way.
- 54:53Don't leave this place without having one friend, one good
- 54:57person. Are we together?
- 54:59So here's what I want you to do. Please all stand if you can,
- 55:04with all due respect, aside from, you know, our special
- 55:07guests who are in front, I'm going to ask you to do something
- 55:10and I'll give you the next one minute, please aside, you don't
- 55:12need to come to the front. I'd like you to walk up to two
- 55:16people and tell them I honour you.
- 55:18I appreciate you and it's good to see you.
- 55:21Go ahead, don't ask you, just do what I'm asking me to do.
- 55:25Whether you know them or not, I honour you.
- 55:29I. Appreciate you.
- 55:31It's good to see. Come on to here.
- 55:49I honour God, I. Appreciate you.
- 55:50I'm watching smile. While you put that, you could.
- 55:57Give them a handshake. You could give them a big heart
- 55:59for you. I truly appreciate you.
- 56:02I don't know what you do, but I appreciate you.
- 56:09Amen. All right.
- 56:09Thank you. Please.
- 56:10With a hand clap. Return back to your seat.
- 56:12We're wrapping up with a hand clap.
- 56:16Return back to your seat. Thank you very much.
- 56:20Thank you very much. Thank you.
- 56:22Please you maybe sit there. This will be my final thought
- 56:26and please lend me your attention for one last time.
- 56:29This will be my final thoughts and it's the final key I want to
- 56:33leave with us is called the power of legacy.
- 56:39We've spoken about a few things that can help us to be
- 56:42effective. But our conversation is not
- 56:44ended well until we discuss the power of legacy.
- 56:49The Bible says a good man leaves and inheritance his children's
- 56:55children. You have the time you you mean
- 56:59to listen to my message Redefining inheritance.
- 57:04I teach them that there are five things that qualify to be
- 57:07inheritance. If the only thing you give your
- 57:10children is real estate, you really did not give them an
- 57:13inheritance. The first inheritance you
- 57:18transfer to the generation after you are your convictions.
- 57:24Never give anyone the result of your convictions without first
- 57:28giving them your convictions. Is the reason why wealth fails
- 57:34with the children and the grandchildren.
- 57:37So the psychology kind of wealth, this is the result of
- 57:41study. Am I doing something wrong?
- 57:43I need another mic. Would you help me with it?
- 57:45I'm wrapping up. Thank you.
- 57:47Thank you, Thank you. Can you hear me?
- 57:57Are we together? So usually as a generation,
- 58:04somebody say no. OK.
- 58:05My sound people really just thank you.
- 58:09So you have the first generation that builds wealth from scratch.
- 58:14They usually come from a background and a foundation of
- 58:18abject poverty. No help, no assistance.
- 58:21They work their way through the ranks until they become wealthy.
- 58:25Are we together now? Their children may or may not
- 58:28experience the time of poverty until they become wealthy.
- 58:32So when they hand over wealth to the children, the children
- 58:36usually maintain the wealth that's been made.
- 58:40But now the grandchildren, while the children of their children
- 58:43are usually born in wealth and affluence, they have no history
- 58:48of whatever it is that happened. And if you do not transfer your
- 58:52convictions, they do not know what it means to be poor.
- 58:56They do not know what it means to grow wealth.
- 58:59They just came in. They were born billionaires.
- 59:02They were born multimillionaires.
- 59:04They were born with relationships.
- 59:06That was not a harvest of their diligence.
- 59:09So they will take life for granted.
- 59:12Are we together? Is the reason why many
- 59:14grandchildren or a generation, they don't have regard for
- 59:18people. They don't respect anyone
- 59:21because they find people respecting them.
- 59:23It's not a product of their personal growth.
- 59:26Many things that come to their lives are not a reflection of
- 59:29their transformation nor a reflection of their growth.
- 59:32Life is so cheap they they undermine the real cost of
- 59:37becoming successful because of the leverage of the generation
- 59:40before them. And they begin to behave like
- 59:43the prodigal son until they spend their wealth riotously.
- 59:47So by the 4th generation, the wealth's depleted and the 4th
- 59:52generation have to start again like the first generation.
- 59:55I said all that to tell you the true test of Surface is output.
- 1:00:01Excel once you are here is that if you can transfer your
- 1:00:05company. Or transfer your ideas.
- 1:00:08If your ideas outlive you, then you are successful.
- 1:00:16That's good. Jesus brought an idea.
- 1:00:19I'm amazed that after spending 333 1/2 years, if I were Jesus
- 1:00:26after resurrection, I won't go to heaven.
- 1:00:28I will supervise everyone who listens to my gospel.
- 1:00:32I I, I after that, I'm shedding my blood.
- 1:00:35No, I wouldn't take, I wouldn't take you have to believe in me.
- 1:00:38I'm not going to give you a chance, whether or not you, I
- 1:00:41mean, the fact that I died for you.
- 1:00:46I mean, it's just me. I mean, I'm just, I'm just
- 1:00:49thinking honest. And Jesus was secured enough to
- 1:00:54trust of people, 120 people, and he left the same Holy Spirit.
- 1:01:01He left us the Holy Spirit, left us the Word and went to heaven.
- 1:01:07There are many people today who cannot immortalize their impact
- 1:01:12by pouring into success successive generation, the
- 1:01:15generations coming because they are more interested.
- 1:01:19In being the face behind their impact, you have to be secured
- 1:01:23enough. It is my personal conviction
- 1:01:27that the moment you hit 35 it is an error.
- 1:01:31To start thinking and keep thinking about yourself alone.
- 1:01:35The moment you hit 35, the validity period of selfishness
- 1:01:40is over. I mean, this is my world.
- 1:01:44I'm just sharing with you my thinking and.
- 1:01:50I can look at your faces. And know that some the moment.
- 1:01:57You hit 35. You can't think about yourself
- 1:02:00again. You must think about the
- 1:02:02nations. Reverend Julian has thought
- 1:02:05beyond himself. That's why he's able to bend
- 1:02:08over backwards to allow for these conversions.
- 1:02:11I want to speak. To CEO's.
- 1:02:13Captains of industry, many of you who are turning over to the
- 1:02:17millions and the billions. When all is said and done, it is
- 1:02:22not the dexterity of your product, it's not your reach,
- 1:02:25it's not the awards that are on your table, but the lives that
- 1:02:29will be impacted after you are long gone.
- 1:02:33That's the true proof you succeeded.
- 1:02:35The Bible says one generation will declare his priest to
- 1:02:38another. Beyond being a man of God, my
- 1:02:41greatest desire and legacy is that if Christ tarries and I
- 1:02:47exhaust my time and I'm gone. But a generation will know that
- 1:02:52a man called Joshua Salman walked upon the earth.
- 1:02:55Loved Jesus and inspired a generation to do the same.
- 1:03:00It's a nobler thing that having a car, a house and an award and
- 1:03:05I'm selling for us. As I wrap up this mindset.
- 1:03:10Think beyond yourself. Nothing leaves and tries
- 1:03:15effectively when it is self-centered.
- 1:03:18The mango tree does not eat its own mango.
- 1:03:21The orange tree does not eat it's own orange.
- 1:03:25The banana tree does not eat it's own banana.
- 1:03:28Everything that is written is set up because it leaves to
- 1:03:33serve the purpose beyond itself. I'm hoping that with these
- 1:03:37conversations have been able to add to someone, perhaps maybe a
- 1:03:41little to just add to your business, add to your
- 1:03:45understanding of leadership. And I'm hoping that when next
- 1:03:48we'll see we hear that his testimonies of strides from one
- 1:03:52level to the other. Now I steep over your lives in
- 1:03:55the name of Jesus Christ for every business that is here
- 1:03:59represented. You can sit, you can stand.
- 1:04:01You don't have to be very comfortable.
- 1:04:04I'm praying for you, particularly for the businesses
- 1:04:07that are going through any and all kinds of crisis right now.
- 1:04:11Maybe some final debt, corporate debt.
- 1:04:14You are in trouble. You are trying to reinvent
- 1:04:17yourself. I pray and I agree with you, in
- 1:04:19the name of Jesus, that after rima faced by the power of the
- 1:04:23Holy Spirit, let grace be released upon you in the name of
- 1:04:27Jesus, from real estate to agriculture to tech, in the name
- 1:04:32of Jesus Christ, I declare that by God you will.
- 1:04:35Run through a troop. And by our God, you will leap
- 1:04:38over walls. I declare that God will reveal
- 1:04:41dears to you. You will receive.
- 1:04:45You will receive them in visions, and those ideas will
- 1:04:48drive your company to the next season.
- 1:04:50In the name of Jesus, you have received me.
- 1:04:53I pray that the blessings that follow the prophetic, let it
- 1:04:56rest on you. Every struggling business I
- 1:04:59decree and declare rise out of that water.
- 1:05:02I command every earth's head that's gone down, let it float
- 1:05:06in the name of Jesus, and I declare that you go forward.
- 1:05:09I pray for the business landspace in Kea.
- 1:05:12Let it move to the next season. Being Jesus, same, I pray.
- 1:05:16Thank you very much for giving me your attention.
- 1:05:18The Lord bless you.
