Every morning when I wake up, I make up my mind to solve as many problems, before retiring home

Passion is what drives me forward. Passion is what makes me go to bed at 2am and wake up at 6am.

Don't kill the competition. Competition is healthy for businesses. It keeps you the entrepreneur on your toes.

If you don’t have ambition, you shouldn’t be alive

Manufacture, don't just trade. There is money in manufacturing even though it is capital intensive. To achieve a big breakthrough, I had to start manufacturing the same product I was trading on; which is commodities.

You could easily tell that hardwork and perseverance go hand in hand with patience. We often hear people say patience is worth it, yet we don't practice it. I did and look how well it worked out for me.

I enjoy myself a lot but I derive more joy in working. I believe in hard work and one of my business success secrets is hard work. It's hard to see a youth that will go to bed by 2am and wake up by 5am. I don't rest until I achieve something.
