Controlling time seems to be a continuous challenge for all of us, how can we get more control and enjoy the day and life more. Here are a few ideas that work.

Stop Tolerating Things that Drain away Your Time and Energy
Tolerations are like a dull headache or stiff neck that never quite goes away. You learn to live with it and each day you climb over the annoyance and get your work done anyway. It is not until something happens to remove the headache or stiff neck that you realize how much energy and pleasure has been sapped from your daily life. The sad thing is that, removing these tolerations is not all that hard or expensive, it just requires awareness and a decision to be done with “it” or “them” and taking action. So TODAY is the day and NOW is the time to uncover your tolerations and start reducing and eventually eliminating them from your life!

How Does Your Business Stack Up to your Competition?
Recently we have been hearing more and more about business failures like Circuit City and Linens and Things. These “Big Box” retailers showed tremendous growth over the past years.

Over two decades ago, when the social norm for a female in Nigeria was everything but being an athlete, Onyali went against the norm getting involved in the sport of track and field and continuing on to compete for Nigeria and Africa, on a national and international level.

Onyali now embraces a new and frankly speaking daunting task, manufacturing and distributing the first ever sports apparel wear in Nigeria.

The world of the internet is inundated with self proclaimed "experts". These "experts" will sell you their ebooks, information, ideas or services and seem to have all the answers for those who aren't experts in the fields they claim to be.
