[Discriminatory quota system a necessity]

Blow the candle if you can, but the truth shall remain still illuminated in the smog of dim. The issue of quota a lushy hemp to smoke in court. The quota system has been at the centre of countless activities in many an organisation, with sports leading the fray, business in follow, and various institutions making up the chunky remainder.

A pop-in into any sector, stats are used and quotas make part thereof. The subject of quota has for long been a taboo to many territories and to date remains under carpet. We can't shy away from the fact that we are different as a people, and that from that difference lies a number, and in the makeup, quota has a place. Quota is a discriminatory rule method as a system in that it is used to cut others out, but sadly as a must for the purpose of control and beneficiation, a measure that has to be deployed in the process unfortunately.

Discrimination could be cited above reasonable purpose to justify a cry for racism, sexism, xenophobia, tribalism, and many other categorisations like age, education, financial status, religion, etc, as usable negatives to win arguments. Quota is a fixed number or amount in percentage that constitute an assigned minority versus majority in opportunity limitation, and it's plainly straight as that. But then again, in all total honesty, in order to rule in harmony one leaves a trail behind of casualties and same occurs with quota. To level the playing fields you always have those collecting the wounds to showcase. 

Though not neutral and perfect, quotaism is a good system that but some use to destroy dreams, passions and aspirations of others through to demonize it. Hate it not, rather look at it with you in its majority makeup and with no power to fight except its enforcement in your favour. Yes, if find yourself in the minority it's tough but look at it again as a necessary means of regulation needed to be observed and put in place for a reason instead of disparaging it.

In conclusion: think of typically the number of foreigners in a company, with 70% of them being the majority whereas the locals making up 30%. How will it feel if you don't get afforded a chance at employment because of a foreigner being favoured? And worse, be that the employer emphasize that they undercut the minimum wage tabled by the ministry of labour, thus making sense for any owner of a business. Then, when quota is applied, it switches the norm and turn the tide around by requiring locals make up the majority of labour force and the foreigners be in the minority. It's fair yet discriminatory, exclusionary and to some extent, yes, racist, but a just move with reasonable grounds when enforced in good faith. Therefore, however we may argue its harshness it but necessitates the fairness that's needed in any society, entity and otherwise as a balancing act...dp

[Hope is capital]

'Life is a concept, give it your idea of self and navigate through its many assigned courtesy routings in your path' [1]. This takes me to the paramount element of life, which is hope, shortened as "have open plan everyone" by this old man I once had sat next to in a minibus on a short trip one day. I never forgot that, it at times come back when times are a bit tough for me.

We at times mislead ourselves in the choices we decide upon in our paths, and end up frustrating our hopes. Of all things that keeps people glued together, no matter what their relation is between them, is hope and love. It may be out of common interest or any other reason, but, it is hope that gets us by as long as there's an end goal in the course. Hope is capital, hope gives shape to deportment in living beings, yet steals no straps of shine. We hope before many other wishes, we hope everyday.

'Hope gives life a promissory stand' [2]. Powerful as may the statement in ring to thought, but cold a truth to the gold pain is to the plated treasure reality in evidence is. If you don't have experience of hope, then chances are you are depriving self the rudimental benefit of knowing bitter sweet hurt, reserved room for disappointment, commonal wish convergence, that sole corner of your condition to your amen. To have hope is a mixed feelings affair that though one can't survive the thrive train without. You just have to be there to be in the thick of its active non-positive passive sentiment.

In conclusion: 'it encompasses internecine aleatoric mutuality, but not above all else, yet commonly first to break of thought in almost all; and that's hope' [3]. Day by day we live by it, and we fall by it,  because it affords the mind that feeling of pro-certainty. One important aspect of it is that it limits no heart to its hold. Nothing is as democratic as hope, hence it is capital...dp

[Bespoke is luxury re-experienced]

Time and again, most of us only hear about bespoke, we actually don’t know the feeling of it. In truest application, bespoke is rarely enjoyed as it’s for the select few who have endowed pockets, to put it bluntly; whereas luxury is a tailored feeling, an experience personalized, looking special, and made to civilly know who you are individually in nestled flippancy of expansive opulence. Bespoke is you, by them, for you; bespoke is cut out of what you’ve carved of self in the epitome shape of success.

The world is divided in two living standards, the have nots and the haves, and there’s nothing we can do about it in that it’s either you have or have not, and that not referring to sole confines of corporeal material things but also to intellect and your whole being, in that you have to think in gross and exude net opportune levity. As a person, you have to exist in one category and unfortunately if you fall into the majority are living a languid default type of life cast. Anything minority is exclusive, aspirational and treated as elite, and so should you be.

Having money is known by everyone but not enjoyed by just anyone. When you have money, you go through life laps in different lanes unfamiliar as others. The refined unfairness of life to the have nots is the discomforting fact that the moneyed pay less for leverage because they pay more for benefit, thus they’re made to experience their uphill status. Convenience, dignity, privilege, all fall from the basket filled with choice for the moneyed, reason simply being that they aren’t many and are easier to manage. What they get accustomed to is specificity that’s answered with attention-to-detail volume of diaphanous courtesy by custodians of luxury. In an expensive nutshell, luxury is an investment in premium objects of desire that’re purely targeted at a specific number and type of individuals with high return margins assurance. Luxury is a soft discrimination that offers ethereal safety to the haves because it knows class and market, and to those who knows it, luxury is an open highway statement of affluence. Trust me, to know it in feel of, you just have to attain it.

If are ever to be that lucky to be important for any brand, know you’ve made a mark. It’s not common for a brand to know you by name and do a product with you specifically in their minds. It takes purchasing power to make such happen to your life, and that’s bespoke. There’s no need to chain yourself around certain people as it’ll only deprive you the chance to enjoy your own degree of luxury. Bespoke is about you bringing out yourself and expressed through an object of desire to make it extraordinarily a representation of you. Luxury is about value, and bespoke is about price, so, uncloak your blinded self to rarity.

In conclusion: luxury is when your health matters to the feeling provider and the stakeholder of experience, for them losing you an expensive grind to article. Bespoke is about priced quality that makes you be taken serious, being respected enough to be listened to, being given preferential access, being a priority to others, and being followed out of their own interest for the comfort of your impression to their gain. Luxury is time in your sheer power, luxury is surreal taste acquired, luxury is ability to possess high-ends, luxury is what you leave behind, and luxury is everything you are that’s not everyone, because luxury is celebrated, and so is anything that we’re not yet wish for. Be the reflection of hope and desire, luxury doesn’t go beyond that in most at times; hence bespoke is luxury re-experienced, just that the bottom-line is, not all of us can afford it...dp

 

[Who's in charge of your thoughts?]

At times one asks themselves whenever witnessing some of the things that do happen around us. It may be by a crowd, a group or an individual. How people behave is very much questionable to say the least. But, one thing I wish they do always before they act, is think. People of late do things without first thinking their prior actions through, and that a certainty of bad to be come the end result.

The power of politicians, brandfluencers, celebrities and media sensationalism agents, make a large mixed bag of elements to blame for the shameless social ills we're faced up with daily. The level of justification for wrongful deeds a serious stuff of concern for me. It may be argued that the behaviour is stemming from a figure of authority or influence wielder, but people need to think and analyse to see the implications of each of the calls they answer to.

I recall one African parliamentarian recommending compulsory programme for political deployees to help kerb the rate of wreckless statements uttered by politicians in their country, and now for me a must for any person of public interest. The reason for what that man was meaning was that, the abuse of one's influence. The platform is afforded to fools who use it to advance hate, racial tensions, economic sabotages, anything that's against the growth and development of economies. Those counter-sentiments needs to be scrutinized for their origin.

Be careful of what you run with, there're elements in society that're ever on campaign push of sort and if not awoke could leave you battered with your dignity and social stance in tatters.

In conclusion: truth is, thoughts are either from the utterer as the source or from the utterer as a conveyor from the source, and once that's established can we then be certain what to do in tackling the statement of utter. Each said statement is like that, originally yours or taken from somewhere. And, whenever encountering any negative or positive vibes from an utterer should question the target, the purpose, the impact, and everything will be well dealt with accordingly.

But then, where there's action accompanying those sentiments, what to do? It ain't easy but with origination in the light can that be neutralized. If the element is the source then it's direct, and engagement is quicker whereas with the conveyor a time consuming process that but at last to engage with the source. The challenge is, when one does something, they ought to ask selves what they want to achieve with the action effected. Also, they should ask who's benefit will it be thereafter, 'cause at the end of the day it's the source in charge of your thoughts that we engage not the conveyor thereof.

Avoid the harshness that hits your emotion and physique by interrogating your thoughts before put to action. Do as you think, not as the other does, that'll guarantee you charge of your thoughts. If are to move with someone else's thought, should be well aware of the intent for that and the consequence. Cease being used, be in touch with control of your thoughts and actions for they complete the you we engage with, we judge, and conclude on. So, be in charge of yourself...dp

[A funeral is no investment]

Sorry to be blunt but it's the honest truth you ought to hear even if it makes you hate me afterwards, but, a funeral is not an investment. As much as they may sell you the idea of a dignified send-off for your akin, none will say it's not worth it, but I tell you it's not worth it. It worries me every time I see a funeral cover ad. What you really need today is an educational plan to cover your child's future education, an investment plan, a personal injury cover and a life cover, apart from your business insurance, or personal earnings protector, and home insurance.

How many funerals have you heard of people left feeling grumpy after, with regards to lack of appreciation by the deceased's family over their unacknowledged contributions towards the success of the burial? Same can be said about a wedding ceremony,  it ain't worth putting in too much you don't have. A funeral is worse in that it costs to organize in time and costs more to postpone, leaving you with the sole choice of proceeding with the organizing of it, unlike with the case of a wedding.

A funeral can be used to score points if you have deep pockets to show off in order to prove to whomever for whatever reason. But for ones like me and you, one needs to think carefully before committing to assisting financially if not your akin. Not that I condemn relief, but do what is necessary and not over also. If things aren't as you wished, don't make loans if you don't have a solid plan on how to repay back the money lent. You can afford to cut on some unnecessities in either a funeral or a wedding. This showing that there's a lot we can do without in order to bury our loved ones. Most of the time the things we add onto the necessities are those we want for our statuses and not vital for the event.

In conclusion: if not a glamorous funeral, it'll be news of today and come tomorrow there'll be a new story of the day to talk about. To die isn't fashionable and so is burying, but then, why us want such an unimportant element into it? What's more important about a funeral is affording the basics and as for the rest it's what we want for us to boost our egos whilst at the same time find that we're even not doing what the deceased would normally do. Organize a send-off that is aligned to the deceased. Another factor to the funeral is the message we leave the bereaved family with as it lasts with them longer than many may think, it should be tailored per the deceased's journey with us, and not think will sit well with us and special others. The theme should reflect the image of the deceased, nothing more if not a bit less...dp

[Slog to tranquil]

The route you travel as a businessperson is one of many wonders. In the world of business there're lots of factors that're in the way of you doing well. Running a business is a choice not an obligation, else you won't feel it's joy. But then, you should know beforehand that the joy I am clamping on is of the pitfalls in the whole process of your journey, as being in business is that, a journey. If it be a trip, I'm afraid your face will disappear from our eyes soonest.

Business is anything and everything to anyone who choose to see things in a way not others see them, thus it's an open sesame. It's about spotting of a challenge to opportunity, identifying the prospect, analyzing the players therein, and what you have to satisfy the need in the gap. Building that a testing process of stresses and strains. But one thing I don't want to hide though, is the living of your vision innate prior to your success via a myriad of enabling factors that include among others; lifestyle, secrecy, belief, and knowledge hoarding; a variety of elements that will spell out the exact material you are, in that, you just have to be a certain one in order to make the right cut.

On its own, business is a world. And, finding your path to your tailored success in it a lot of work. It goes to how you want in as, for instance; as a sole proprietor, a partner, or group of entities. In those again will be what you want to be in as; a business owner or investor. Further, if you own it, will you be an active role player or a passive one, or a totally a non-partisan member? There're intrapreneurs, entrepreneurs, and business executives, it depends on your outlook on your honest choice with the material you are.

An open secret about business and its operation is the slaving to it in your build up, which goes bi-ways as building of self and building of the entity. And, sadly, both will have to be sustained that way. With it, it's always tough in the beginning as you already know by now, but not saying get out of the kitchen. Stay put in your pressure until you find a solution to your comfort in it, and trust you me when I say that discomfort is precious for you. Success in business is about holding on to that dream of your end goal. Whenever you feel discouraged, dial that and it'll transfer you to that corner of your vision, where you'll refill your passion for the journey, and come back more determined to disgust your detractors. Your soul will need that from time to time.

In conclusion: it ain't easy yet not difficult but hard to achieve, because it's doable. I laugh alone at times, looking at my future lebras, how they experience stress in contrast to where one is and still experiencing my kind of stress. My future me lives with the stress of growth and attained levels to maintain, whilst today me is battling stresses of debt, access, acceptance, belonging, security, a lack of everything certainty assured, and but going places step by step despite talks undermining the purpose serving.

My cheap thrill is the best thing about me happening in the hater's world because it makes them voice out their worry, which is enough to keep me going. You don't want to work because you think you're better, it's ok, let them say it, you know your end goal and stay its course for one good day they'll be saying how they knew you were that for it. Business is a slog to tranquil, you just need to stiffen your neck for your dream, for the sake of your successful journey. Remember: 'the hard choice of today your lay for the soft choice of tomorrow, rest assured for you're in the right lane they so wish you leave' [1]. Push not to remain a startup, thrive rather for the rank of a small business, then you know from there it's a step up to medium enterprise and building. Good luck in your objective...dp

[Homogeneity in your aspirations]

Do you ever dream about your business partner/s? If yes, what's the most thing that dominates those dreams? Why is it that? It may sound homo or perverted in a way to those of you who see compounded probing as weird and awkward than is progressive, especially if still rooted in the doctrine of Puritan oriency. The core here is establishment of your optimism in your currency about your future through your dreams; in simpler terms, homogeneity in your aspirations.

Your outlook on life plays out in many a mode of thought transfer, and through your dreams rested a fountain to unearth elements that makes the essence of that. How you relate with your partner/s shapes the narrative of your future with them, something that's important when you look into forming a working business relationship with someone or some persons. Your dream is an averment that speaks volumes, let it be your guide same as is a counsel to an attentive sole.

Entrenched in dreams are hopes, hatreds, vengeance, love, inclusion, exclusion, repulsion, connectedness, and many more key aspects of one. It is from that that you in your own get your path to trek. It solely depends on the energy that the draw card release for reach from it and but, the bottom line is it all reflects what you wish for or have as a blueprint of your mental tatoo.

In conclusion: a dream is crucial, it's an outlet that the dreamer has to explicitly communicate their message about self in relation to them with others and their thems. It is a guide about their placement of them and their thems that will probably be an indicator of where you too will be placed, because it springs to a mindful head what it spells out. But then, what if you're one partner that never featured in their dreams? What does that mean to you? And, if you're featured, where are you placed, and how does it feel?

Sift through their dreams what you feature as in their currency and in their future, and out of that, place yourself in either a bracket or outside of it. Never let anyone determine your future, let them influence your success of future, thus you ought to fight for your dream. Find mates who are of same spirit and mind for your dream, and as a conforth form a solid formidable collective of commonal sync...dp
