Have ALTARnatives and not alternatives

The other alternative headline to this subject is : The ALTARnative approach to business and relationship. Have ALTARnatives not Alternatives. I love it and that's the way I get even with people.
Alternatives could be positive or negative but ALTARnatives is always positive
How can  I drive this point home, yeah! I remember what I did this morning.
In Ikeja  City Mall where my office is, there are only two resident banks. I have account with each of them. I was at one of them this morning to deposit some cash but the queue was too long. I simply went to the other bank and in few minutes I was back to my ever busy salon. Who will sue me for this act? No one because it's not unlawful. I'm where I am today because I had ALTARnatives while working in the bank. When the banking door closed, the beauty door was opened and I deliberately worked in.

Alternatives has negative and positive side unlike ALTARnatives. For instance, if my wife denied me sex, I do not look for another lady to satisfy my sexual desire, I confront my feelings and hold on until when she is ready for me. With Alternatives you  look for the very easy way out. With alternatives, much focus is on the acts and not on the consequences. The ALTARnatives focuses on the positives. The ALTARnative approach to business and relationship is the best 

Never give up

After watching the first half of the match between Super Eagles of Nigeria and Bosnia in the ongoing world cup, 
Here is my 'take away', don't be too quick to give up on people. You never can tell their tomorrow. 

Some ladies gave up on me in my 'yesterday' not knowing my today and tomorrow. At a time when I lost my job, my phone stop ringing, many friends turned their back on me...

But today, like the Super Eagles, I have only scored one 'goal'. I have not reach my destination yet...

God's grace and mercies abounds

Business Attitude

If I have my way, I would introduce a course in our universities called BUSINESS ATTITUDE. Is there any such course yet? Business is a being who has Character, Attitude and Personality. Character can be studied, personality can be copied but Attitude comes by impartation. Attitude is deeper than the rest and it drives character and personality. For a product, attitude is like the content but for a service, attitude is the style. In business, attitude is the unique thing! What is unique about you is your attitude.
It takes a miracle to change attitude and that is why Attitude should be taken seriously.

Business and Sexuality

 


Business like every other career or profession is about satisfaction or fulfillment. Every trade or profession has or should have an icon or symbol for easy reference likewise business itself. A cross for instance is an icon that represent Christianity. So the icon for satisfaction in the business world is a sexy lady. Check out the billboards and images on most products, you will find sexy ladies as icons. The lady is universally accepted as icon of satisfaction in the business world. Who doesn't have sex or lust after her? The feeling you get when you do is incomparable. Most product manufacturers and service providers offer or promise their customers such feelings through their products or services.

The new trend in the business world is, instead of putting images of sexy ladies on products, the products itself now take the shapes and forms of sexy ladies for such products that's targeted at male while those targeted at female are muscular in shape e.g lipsticks. As for services, much focus is not on the acts or arts but on the foreplay, the ambience, the scents, the decor or the process. 

As a businessman, how do you maximize these potentials. The options available while carefully observing businesses are: most businesses focus more on the profits or what is in it for them; some focus more on the processes, the ambience or packaging and marketing but very few are able to strike a balance between both ends and these few businesses are the ones dictating the trends.
