PII 001: The Secret to Succeeding by Creating Your Own Luck [FREE Podcast]

When I quit Guinness to pursue a longstanding dream of being self-employed, Andy R. Jones, then Benin Brewery Operations Manager, apart from uttering phrases like “Tayo simply refuses to Fail” while speaking at my send forth party, went further to send me the following super handwritten note in a Christmas card, days before I left:

“..I honestly believe you are one of those who will succeed at anything he does. Your commitment and effort has been outstanding….Thanks for all your hard work since I’ve been here – you will be sorely missed. I don’t need to wish you good luck, you have the ability to make your own luck.- Andy(R. Jones) ”

That was in 2001 – 14 years ago.

Over the years that have passed since then, I’ve pursued entrepreneurial success with the same diligent devotion to continuous self-improvement, with untiring persistence that Andy and other in Guinness came to know me for.

PII 001: The Secret to Succeeding by Creating Your Own Luck [FREE Podcast]

When I quit Guinness to pursue a longstanding dream of being self-employed, Andy R. Jones, then Benin Brewery Operations Manager, apart from uttering phrases like “Tayo simply refuses to Fail” while speaking at my send forth party, went further to send me the following super handwritten note in a Christmas card, days before I left:

“..I honestly believe you are one of those who will succeed at anything he does. Your commitment and effort has been outstanding….Thanks for all your hard work since I’ve been here – you will be sorely missed. I don’t need to wish you good luck, you have the ability to make your own luck.- Andy(R. Jones) ”

That was in 2001 – 14 years ago.

Over the years that have passed since then, I’ve pursued entrepreneurial success with the same diligent devotion to continuous self-improvement, with untiring persistence that Andy and other in Guinness came to know me for.

Just like it happened in paid employment (though this turned out to be a LOT tougher and took much longer) I am now reaping the rewards of doing the same thing.

Today, apart from enjoying excellent relations with my clients, most of who see me more as a friend than a service provider or consultant, I am also getting more and more lucky in the way I attract new clients and customers for the growing range of solutions I offer!

Yes. That’s how some people would describe it. Luck. But luck can be seen to be good or bad, depending on how one chooses to view it. My mental attitude, as a student of Napoleon Hill’s Success Achievement Philosophy, and Wallace D. Wattle’s Science of Getting Rich is that luck is what you make of it.

And if you choose to ALWAYS see it as GOOD LUCK, and you go on to think and act to make it turn out that way, then that is what it will become for you.

This is what made Andy, and others who have seen me in action conclude I have the ability to make my own luck.

The truth is EVERY willing person has the ability to do the exact same thing. My life is proof of it, as are the lives of many authentic achievers on record in history.

Tayo Solagbade's Performance Improvement IDEAS(PI Squared) Newsletter PII 001: The Secret to Succeeding by Creating Your Own Luck [FREE Podcast]

This pod cast offers you ideas you can use, to learn how to adopt the right mental attitude that will enable you make your own luck. If you’ve ever let anyone convince you that someone outside of yourself is responsible for the seeming bad fortunes you’re having in life, I urge you to stop dis-empowering yourself in that manner.

No one can make anything happen in your life that you do NOT permit in the first place by way of the thinking habits you adopt. Not even people supposedly armed with evil spiritual powers (whatever that means) to harm you.

Listen to this pod cast and liberate yourself from today!

Business Best Practice Ideas: You Do Not Have To Cut Corners To Make A Profit

Over the past decade or so, from the time I become self-employed in 2002, I have been “fortunate” to run into – and in certain instances – work quite closely with – some unscrupulous, or “not very honest”, entrepreneurs. In most cases, I was heartbroken to find that the impressions I initially had, tended not […]

http://www.tayosolagbade.com

Tayo K. Solagbade is a Location Independent Performance Improvement

Specialist and Multipreneur (i.e. a highly versatile/multi-skilled entrepreneur), with a bias for delivering Best Practice solutions to

Farm Businesses and others.

Since 2002, he has earned multiple streams of income providing individuals and organizations with personal development training and coaching, custom MS Excel-VB solutions, web marketing systems/web hosting,

freelance writing services, and best practice extension support services (for farm business owners).

Tayo is the author of the Self-Development (SD) Bible™ and the

popular Livestock Feed Formulation Handbook. He is also the developer of its accompanying Excel-VB driven Ration Formulator™ and the Poultry Farm

Manager™ software.

He has delivered talks/papers to audiences in

various groups and organizations, including the Centre for Management Development, University of Lagos, Christ Baptist Church, Volunteer Corps, Tantalisers Fast Foods

and others.

In May 2012 he was the Guest Speaker at the Centre for Entrepreneurship Development’s Annual Semester Entrepreneurial Lecture at Yaba College of Technology in Lagos.

On 1st April 2013, Tayo (who reads, write and speaks the French language) relocated to Cotonou, Benin Republic to begin slowly

traveling across the West African region.

His key purpose is to deliver talks, seminars

and workshops on his key areas of focus and interest to interested audiences (Email tayo at tksola dot com for details).

In a previous life, before leaving to become self-employed, Tayo served for seven years (October 1994 to December 2001) as a high performing manager in Guinness Nigeria. He rose from Shift Brewer to Training & Technical Development Manager, and later acted in senior roles as Production Manager and Technical
Manager.

In addition to constantly challenging the status quo and influencing positive work changes, he built a reputation for using self-taught spreadsheet programming skills (starting with Lotus 1-2-3, and later moving to Excel Visual Basic) – in his spare time – to develop Automated Spreadsheet Applications to computerize manual report generation processes in the departments he worked. Over four(4) of his applications were adopted for brewery level reporting.

Tayo holds a B.Sc degree in Agricultural Extension Services from the University of Ibadan, Nigeria, having graduated top of his class – with Second Class Upper Division honors – in 1992. He is an Associate Member of the UK Institute & Guild of Brewing, a 1997 National Finalist of the Nigerian Institute of Management’s(NIM) Young Managers’

competition, a Certified Psychometric Test Administrator for Psytech UK, innovator of Spontaneous Coaching for Self-Development™ (SCfS-D™), and Founder of the Self-Development Academy (SDAc).

When he’s not amazing clients with his superhuman skills (wink), Tayo works as the creative force behind his Daily Self-Development Nuggets blog – on which he also publishes The Farm CEO Weekly Newspaper (sent via email to paid subscribers) and his Weekly Performance Improvement IDEAS

newsletter.

You can connect with him on Twitter @tksola.com and Facebook.
