Woke up this morning with the rays of the sun hitting me directly on the face and to the crow of a rooster!! It was sunny at 06.30 GMT during the raining season in Abuja, Nigeria.
A day previous, I heard on CNN that Haiti is still having 1.6million homeless people six months after the devastating earthquake and I said to myself, GOD loves Nigeria.
Nigeria is the most populous black country in the world, 150Million with a lot of diverse cultures, traditions, tribes and religion.
Nigerian might not have consistent power supply, a wide gap between the haves and the have nots, not have a good educational system, transportation system, medical system etc.
One thing Nigeria has in abundance as a country apart from people that are hardworking and resilient is NATURE!!.
Diverse nature from lush green areas in the south to the desert encroaching areas up North.

Where do I start From?
Been thinking of a business I can do for a long time. A business that does not not have the cumbersomness of inventory, human resources, large capital cost, office space etc with the advantage of enjoying what I do!!
Enjoying what I do is entirely another kettle of fish!
I am a 38years old Nigerian, married to a great wife with whom I have two outstanding kids.
Been working for the past 15years as a system analyst, application developer, financial products developer, strategist, just name it.
Do I have fulfilment in what I do? I dont know. All I know is that my bills get paid.
I remember Chris Eubank a retired boxing champion once said, I don't like boxing but it pays my bills!!!.
Can I ask you two quick questions?
Do you love what you are presently doing?
Will you love to do it without being paid for your services?
Think about it!!.
Recently, my thoughts have been pre-occupied with the happenings in the financial sector of the Nigerian Economy in which I work and I think everybody in that sector needs to have plans A to Z!!
Am I against the reforms in the financial sector, NO! but the way it is being carried out leaves a lot of room for doubt in the mind of onlookers like me!
We will have time to talk about this some other time.
