LEARN TO BE POSITIVELY SELFISH!

PROTECT YOUR HUSTLE - Learn to be Positively selfish!
If you are trained in some unique skills say designing some good wears, doormats, clothing, sandals, etc and that is the hustle that feeds you, it is okay to be "Selfish" whenever anyone comes to you to train them.
Have you ever seen coca-cola share their formula? They were founded on 29th January1892, over 120 years later, no one knows the formula for their syrup that makes sodas across the world.
Again, did you know that there’s quite possibly no fast-food item that’s quite as mythical as Colonel Harland Sanders’ Original Recipe fried chicken, which has served as the cornerstone of KFC’s menu since the recipe was perfected in 1940
The recipe, comprising of a blend of 11 herbs and spices is one of the most tightly guarded trade secrets in the restaurant industry. This recipe is locked inside a vault at KFC’s headquarters in Louisville.
Hear this, even KFC’s head chef, Bob Das, revealed in a past interview that he doesn’t know the secret formula; it’s only known by a very small number of the company’s highest-ranking executives. And he’s been with the company for nearly 20 years!
And that is why both Coca Cola and KFC are such successful, success at times, demands self-love and some sort of positive "selfishness"
If you become too generous in your trade, you will find yourself out of it if you trained an individual with financial muscles.
Tomorrow, he will have a big shop in town, complete with an online presence and great marketing. Soon he will be on your TV discussing how he made his millions without mentioning you, as you struggle with rent and other financial obligations.
If possible seek legal protection and ensure your idea is legally protected.
Word on the street has it that, even the original Mpesa idea was by a commoner who never knew how best to invest in that golden gem. So somehow Safaricom landed on it and through their ever shining, alert, and creatively insane team, they legally protected it and run away with it. In 2020, Mpesa had a revenue of 84.4B.
Had the commoner fought to keep some rights to it, he would be counted as one of Kenya's wealthy men. Compare him with graffiti artist David Choe and Facebook.
In 2005, Sean Parker, president of Facebook at the time, asked David Choe to paint his famous murals on the office walls for $60,000 or company stock.
Choe chose the stock, and when Facebook, in 2012, had their initial public offerings of stock, to raise $5 billion, Choe made an estimated $200 million.
The murals are still in the Facebook offices today.

THE FALLEN GRACE - WITNESSED

Let me tell you something about God's grace.  Ever wondered why some mighty preachers, gospel artists, motivation speakers, etc., who used to run the airwaves, no longer do so? Ever wondered why a gospel artist, who would step on a stage and the masses go crazy can longer even attract 1000 views for their really good music?  Even wondered why your favorite motivational speakers literary receive no attention like they used to? And that preacher who would literary command the whole nation to touch radio for prayers and a huge % of households would follow - can no longer even attract the same? A preacher who would their church full to capacity forcing the need for more services, can no longer witness such? So they resort to staging miracles to get hold of the members? And this too does not because day in day out they are exposed? This is because . . . When God releases his Grace upon your life, everything you touch turns into gold.  Now, our failure is when we receive these ...
