Giant Strides

Believe it or not

I often ask myself “Why”, why do you think you can succeed or why do you think you know what people need etc.

By this time next week I will answer the question”why”. Head or tail( Half baked or complete platform) I will issue out a worldwide distributed press release and the only thing on earth that will prevent this action will be if no login is available on www.ziliot.com. I will also make the sacrifice of a few thousand email marketing campaigns and then I will take a break. I have to stay true to my mission and vision, I have to re-affirm to myself that I offered to sacrifice my time,energy,mind and will power to offer a liberating tool to small and medium size businesses and I carried this goal and mission even before I knew there was a tool called Facebook.

Because I so much wished for this, I spent so much energy and resources, it would be unfair to not take the last cup of water in the desert and give it for a cause I so much believed in. Whether the businesses adopt it or not, whether someone sees value or not will be their business and totally up to them. So I am saying that the last drop of blood,tears, sweats and even borrowed money will go into creating the awareness it can afford. I have been truly blessed to work with great people, I have seen the possibilities of saying “yes” and I have seen that there are “mighty forces” that aids those who believe or dare. I have learnt a lot and have endured in-spite of a lot. I am not giving up without a fight,no.

I will leave a tool with magnificent and unimaginable potentials and multiple revenue streams or possibilities, I will leave a masterpiece and a disruptive idea. It will be left for the might force to push it using the right wind because my dynamo has ran out of power. I started with zero and wanted to inspire many to start from zero as well, if there is any possibility to succeed from zero, I have seen it.

Despite the fact that it is very easy to start with something, it helps you run faster and succeed faster, I say if you have nothing start with a zeal and a blind enthusiasm. I dealt with procrastination a long time ago but I have to put this message up to ensure that I stay true to my vision and mission. It will be the hardest thing to take brief loan from a friend to send the press release and emails when I should take it to settle bills lined up but since this was my sacrifice, my vision,my passion, I sincerely hope all things are equal or work together so this disruptive innovation can released next week for small businesses worldwide to use and get revenue, create a new ecosystem for jobs and conduct safer business.I will always remain a visionary, I asked God for it and he gave it to me freely, if it is being doubted I don’t care, I care that the status quo be changed more than I care to make money

I understand that having an idea if one thing but implementing the idea is the most important thing. People succeed because of “who they know” and not “what they know”. It is also important to know something, don’t get me wrong. I bet everything on www.ziliot.com, give it the resources it deserves and watch it disrupt the industry, starve it of funds and it turns another idea. I have seen countless numbers of start-ups and I have seen the competition, I might be blind to my own ego or my own product. I have also sat down to gauge and benchmark and research the possibilities so much. I have studied why products fail and why they succeed and have tried to create a platform that has potentials.  Needless I say more, give it the necessary awareness required and watch the snowball effects. You cannot wink in the dark and expect the other person to see you, neither can you light a candle and hide it under the bed. It will not be automatic for me to learn to please investors to fund this product but you either take risk or not.Anything can happen to even the most sure of things

Startup visas worldwide

The vast majority of top executives at the leading Silicon Valley tech firms are white men. Women and Asians have made some inroads, but African-American and Latino tech leaders remain a rarity. About 1% of entrepreneurs who received venture capital in the first half of last year are black, according to a study by research firm CB Insights. http://edition.cnn.com/2011/11/11/tech/innovation/black-tech-entrepreneurs/index.html

Seriously? I went to get a US visa to attend an event in the Silicon valley of which the participants will leave Finland to there tomorrow 14 th of November but I was denied visa because I hold a Nigerian passport, I don’t have enough money in my account(Of which the one week trip was paid for by the local government here) and I have a student visa from Finland even though I showed I registered two companies and I am working on a technology startup.
Be sincere the blacks in America did they drop from the sky or they came to America some way or somehow? Take it or leave I am on a mission and if you had Nigerians who ran away with one week visa did they build companies? Come to think of it should I become an undocumented immigrant or should I just build a dream company and see it change lives. 

This kind of article just shows the disconnection with the government and the people, what’s wrong with getting visas to the Silicon valley? You should be glad the person who is going to the silicon valley has some skill that can be leveraged to build companies and give your citizens jobs. I guess any government that really cares about jobs should take a second look into giving visa to immigrant “stupid” entrepreneurs

Consequences of life?

At various intervals of my life I have tried to be a better person, I took steps to ensure that it was possible but events in life turned out to limit my abilities. When people will hear my story of being a bad person, would they make an effort to understand why it happened? No they will not they will scream blue murder, crucify him.

If I didn’t try hard, I would say I did not try but I do put meaningful efforts to set my acts straight, I don’t rush decisions and try to follow things to understand another persons point of view or do things blindly with trust but when they trust fades because of one thing or another I get to act out my anger or hard attitude and there I would be labelled whatever bad name that is available.

Should I be happy that I just tried? No I keeping trying and taking steps, I take the wrong steps even as a result, and as a human I am prone to mistakes and confusion. Whoever is not confused at some point about some issue should cast the first stone? There are saints who get everything right the first time, good for you if you do but I guess it is also wrong to give excuses for my actions but accept the consequences.

For the people that life works out they way they wanted or imagined or planned it, good for you but still there are people like me to fail in a lot of areas in their life and they work hard to correct the wrongs they have done.

The trend of my life and where I want it to lead

Wait a minute, what is it that I set to do since I was born that was always easy? At the end of these things I get records, earn respect and get to the next challenge or task. I remember how many times I tried to play football in a full field, I couldn’t grasp it, I wasn’t allowed to play in most teams but later on if I don’t play then its not going to be fun. I remember how I learnt how to drive, I bashed the headlights, back bomber and others but I learnt how to drive and I even thought someone else.

I tried to enter university and I couldn’t, I struggled all the way , I had a second chance by the second chance giving God and he helped me out. I graduated without visiting any resit class, I did’t bother about anything than graduating (getting to conclude) because I already made up my mind to be the greatest in my field. So I managed to leave in two years I didn’t care about my grades but did enough to just pass. I used to wonder what is meant by the spirit of God being in a person, I went to church since child birth as a visitor or number but couldn’t grasp anything more than religion. When the time came after attending everywhere, praying everywhere, fasting everywhere I got a simplified version and I got the baptism of the spirit and began speaking in tongues. I wanted to see things, have visions and dream dreams, I prayed and this time it started happening. So what happened previously?.

The story goes on an on, even to until this very hour but looking back I see a trend of which I always get the best part out of every-situation even though it starts very difficult. I remember when I set to join technical department in church to help out and also learn how to manage sound which fascinated me, I spent all four years or so without understanding well but it only took me a day in a life performance which I just walked close and I took over mixing of sound like a pro and delivered very well until this day I handle it like a pro knowing the rudiments. So this means that I am going to come out strong, but I don’t just want to be strong, I want to impact lives, leave a mark positively, create opportunities and show that if you dream it, you can achieve it. I want to be a story that will be told to inspire someone to be blind, to be stupid and just believe. I want to inspire a very poor person with no help whatsoever, with no source of lively, with no parent or with  zero money to stand up and change his or her world. I will never stop until I get it done.

I also want to be an answer to the “Name of Jesus” when someone ask God using the “Name of Jesus” , I want to have the resources, financially or materially or with ideas to help the person out and the person will give glory to God
