Baby Steps

The world is what one makes of it. People choose to be ambitious, people choose to poor. Life is to some extent, series of random events. The final outcome or end result of an event is determined by re-actions, behavioral response to an event.

The human life is a sum of events and re-actions to those events. In other words, we own our destiny, and the choice we make in re-action to favorable and unfavorable events shapes that destiny. You, see people in different circumstance react in different ways. In this world there are those, who fight to attain their rightful place in the society. And there are those who sit and let the car drive it self. There are people who only pray and perform sacrifices hoping that the gods will favor them. How wrong are they? It is stated in the Bible that Heaven will only come to the aid of those who help themselves. It pays to know that Good luck is where hard work, productivity, proper planning and timing intercept one other.

I started this blog, because I want to establish what I call a FOUNDATION. In other words I want to begin looking for ways in which I can establish an enterprise that will have positive impact. A small part-time business, pretty much sums it up.

You might be asking yourself, what led you to do this?I became tired of letting things take their natural path. The current global recession, marked a turning point. The global financial downturn has taken the world by storm. Never since the great depression as many financial institutions, banks, Automobile dealership, fall by the waist side. Realistically speaking, my chance of getting a job in this economic environment is extremely slim.

I spent my time researching on using my skills and interest to make a difference in the world. Today's world certainly needs heroes, people who rise to the occasion and turn things around for the better. I have been working on ideas such starting a small business/ entrepreneur, sustainable product design development, and alternative energy(solar energy) for Africa. I have attended a conference on solar energy in Boston recently. I am a member of meetup.com, a social media site for small business and networking events.I attended a conference last week at RISDand Brown University, A better world by Design. I will talk a lot about this eye opening event later.

The reason I am doing all these things, is to set up a building block, a foundation for a meaningful life with positive impact. Right now, I am prototyping ideas and having people share their thoughts and opinions about it.
