I listened in live to this radio show called UNSCRIPTED and this episode was raw, powerful and as real as can be.
So in the spirit of MOTHER’S DAY, I bring you a soul-searching, heartwarming episode for your strengthening
Around my estate, there is a UBA ATM Machine. It has been there since I moved into this estate 2 years ago. If my guesses are right, most times than not, the 2 ATMs are always OUT OF SERVICE or TEMPORARILY UNABLE TO DISPENSE CASH. This was the norm. It got to a point when I really did not bother checking the machine anymore.

I cannot say this enough. No matter how much you pay for coaching, your coach is not responsible for the actions you must take to get your outcomes.

One of my Priority Coaching clients told me his only challenge is HOW TO NEGOTIATE. He said ‘Coach, I always leave a transaction feeling cheated or underpricing my services’. He lamented. His further frustration is that he has done business for many years but his personality always interferes with his capacity to negotiate fair and square.
I had a brief intervention session with one of my darling protégés today and I shared this epiphany. She requested that I make it public and I argued. But tonight, I feel inspired to share this. Perhaps, someone will be energized by God through this.
