Book review: Conversations of Managers

Without questioning, management skills are vital for any individual or organization to succeed and achieve their quest for existing. To have a wonderful career, relationship, life or business, you must be a good manager. Show me a very unhappy human or a failing organisation and i will show you a poor manager behind that. A manager either at individual or organisational level who fosters good management skills is able to propel their mission and Vision and succeed with ease. We are not all born managers, management is an art and a skill each of us can learn. Since the formation of THE MANAGER RESOURCE CENTER many people were introduced to an easy way to acquire management skills. The manager resource center is a management training and consulting center that trains and equips managers with distinctive skills for peak performance for organisation and personal development During the start of this year, the founder and Leader Mr. Patrick Obita went on a quest to publish conversations and thoughts on diverse topics and turn them into a book. The conversations are a collection of thoughts as shared by top East African managers and extraordinaires through the Center’s online and physical interaction platforms, events and

The Champion’s Mojo; Not just a book but a tool for transformation

Sometimes i sit and wonder with myself what kind of cosmic powers had possessed me to write the book. It all happened from a Kensho moment i was exposed to, during the awakening from the moment, i made it a habit to write down key lessons and concepts that i had grasped, and guess what, those notes of ponder and reflection turned into the mighty book that is changing the face of life and work. To me and many readers, it is just not a book but a transformation tool. See, the Quest for human transcendence is about acquiring a new set of competencies, perspectives and behaviors that radically propel one to go to unimaginable spaces where they think and act differently, have different motivations and aspirations to a oneness personality. It is only a spark, an appeal and magical perspective that one needs to soar in such times, build self-awareness, develop strengths and attract extra ordinariness. The Champion’s Mojo book is a not just a book but a tool to harnessing that inner spark and appeal that assist you to achieve unimaginably. To those seeking to see unimaginable shifts happen in their journey of life, Champion’s Mojo, serves as

Financial infidelity; so disastrous than intimate infidelity

​Financial infidelity in marriages and relationships is so common. It is not a new thing. In fact it is the new Normal. But, it is so disastrous than even intimate infidelity.  Would you rather cheat or be cheated on intimately that financially when in a marriage or committed relationship? Such questions are unceasingly debatable but truth be told relationships and marriages (of today) are mainly spoilt by financial related infidelities than Intimate infidelities. Take a look! Intimate infidelities are easy to hide and manage but financial infidelity manifests gradually and grows like cancer to never be cured if taken to some level. Have you ever lied, hidden to your spouse about Money and assets? Sounds obvious i guess! 😉  Financial infidelity is the secretive act of spending money, possessing credit and credit cards, assets, holding secret accounts or stashes of money, borrowing money, or otherwise incurring debt unknown or unwilling to one’s spouse, partner, or significant other. It is so disastrous than even intimate infidelity. Could your partner be seemingly intercepting some of their/family financial details and plans? Are you noticing they are buying a lot of stuff yet you are not informed? Is money being transferred for reasons they haven’t

I didn’t find the magic, magic found me!

Sure, I have the audacity to say that I am the most fortunate man to have transcended (mark the word transcend) and let go the obstacles and hindrances that had stopped me finding my flow. To me it all found me.  Many of my peers didn’t make it yet they were looking for it. Whereas others find their flow and passion, to me it found me.  I just got the realization after a kensho moment, I didn’t go seeking for it from the start.  During a Kensho moment that hit me hard in 2017, I got an awakening, which resulted me writing the mighty book THE CHAMPION’S MOJO . This moment gave me a very massive shift and realization that shall ever remain etched in the records of my life. In the Champion’s Mojo, not only was I writing for readers, but also my awakening. Magic and flow found me and my passion and purpose got unleashed. And like all humans, when your flow finds you, you have to do the work, the work to unleash and marvel the magic. During that period, i realized the magic was inside always, I found a framework, codes and hacks to dig deep to find more of it, I claimed

These types of women are hard to date or marry!

Stories of being loved and falling in love give us great  experiences,  we  feel inspired to speak about them because they seem to make a great deal for our lives at the moment, what we hide is the time when we realize we picked the wrong card possibly flagging us signals of grief, regret and frustration.  Love and relationships are a very long topic as I share most of my reflections about them in my upcoming book dubbed; FAMILY SOUP. We have all faced or known someone whose relationship fell in jeopardy because they never thought twice about the kind of person they moved in with.  This is very common.  Today’s article is not about giving you tips on how to know that someone but to show you types of women that are so hard to date or marry (on the side of us men since i am a man). The expressions are not in any way personally directed to anyone but a perspective on people behaviors and attitudes and how to weigh what you can manage or not, after all we have different preferences in life. But generally the following are hard to deal with often., The Insecure &

Poeple who are not skeptical live like dogmatic donkeys!

If you are not questioning, not getting skeptical, you die with the Donkey Mind There is an old adage that states that; Dogmas are like two hungry donkeys tied together in short ropes on a lane with grass on both sides. They want to eat off the grass that is on each side of the lane but the rope is short. Both donkeys pull harder hoping to drag the other to their side but neither can move an inch. The animals become very frustrated and tired and none can reach the grass. In the absence of dogma, they would have stopped and tried to figure out how to eat.   The animals can decide to take turns. They can move together from side to another. “When you think in absolutes, the only ‘bush’ that matters is the one that you can see. When you believe you possess the truth, your subjective beliefs blind you from seeing other options”. When the donkeys stop trying to pull each other, they reframe the situation. They are able to consider other alternatives and start working together. By being receptive to new possibilities, the donkeys would achieve their goals — they move from conflict to integration. Our disabling

Every relationship should have a return on Investment

Given a deeper understanding, relationships are about give and take, however, in healthy relationships there is an overall healthy balance of practice to give and take without having to kill yourselves getting that balance and there is certainly no need for lots of drama to achieve this. Nicholas K Quest Quotes Return On Investment (ROI) within relationships refers to the ratio of what you’ve gained or lost against what you invested into the relationship. This is not about financial or material gain or loss. This is about The Three Es: Emotion, Esteem, and Energy. It’s very difficult for you to take the relationship out of negative equity – that rather uncomfortable place where your investment is now worth less than what it was when you started. You’ll effectively have to continue to pay out emotionally even though there is a deficit and this can be soul-destroying. If the market (your relationship) continues to decline, it can be very difficult to pull yourself out of the relationship black hole because you will struggle to know who you are or what you are personally worth, particularly because if you date emotionally unavailable people, you tend to derive your worth from them and

Definition of Championship: To stop wallowing and start allowing!

The starting point for any recovery is to stop wallowing in your misery and accept the reality . Whether it’s a relationship, job, business or finances, You must accept the reality first, stop wallowing in misery and allow the best to happen. Yes, it’s a bummer. Yes, you’re likely the victim of somebody else wrongdoing or your own doings, or uncontrollable circumstances. Yes, it’s devastating. But Most important of all;- None of that matters now. What matters is what you do about it. When a not-expected event happens, just stand strong and know what’s done is done and there is no turning back. Resisting what’s already a fact is futile, so don’t waste your energy – accept the reality. I have seen lots of men and women who try to resist the reality, its very bad, trying to resist the reality makes you lose power to restart and revive what have been messed. Living in the past only makes forward progress more difficult. Some things will be mended as you keep going. Leave what happened to take care of itself for now, accept the setback, let go of it, and commit to forward movement and revival of few damages incurred.
