For starters, the Patriology 3in 1 book opens up with ‘Start Your Startup!’ The 12 Ps of business and Career success, a wow! book on business and entrepreneurship that contains insightful enterprise thoughts on starting and sustaining a business which I have decided to gift to young startups, entrepreneurs, business tech founders and professionals in today’s volatile, oversaturated and business driven world.
With due acknowledgement to all the awesome numerous business and enterprise books out there, Start Your Startup is a timeless business book that practically guides and inspires you until you delve into that startup idea and thrive in it. No matter whom you are, an entrepreneur, an aspiring startup, a business leader or just curious about this entrepreneurship thing while working your 9-5, and deciding whether you are made for it or not, this is the kind of book you want to read on the Go, and also have in your book shelf for the rainy day. The book covers 12 key questions and answers on launching your dream business, the starter Kits you need no matter where you are, how to use technology innovation and human capital to scale up, the importance of building legacy business structures and more.
The second book, Nuggets 700: is your inspirational companion, which explored various areas of human desires and how it is important to find our purpose in life. The book also shared thoughts on the concept of embracing our spiritual DNA if we are going to fully express our life, business and career goals optimally.
The fact is, this thing called ‘purpose’ has been explored overtime in books and by many motivational speakers but we cannot refrain from sharing its importance today and for generations to come because when the purpose of a thing is not known, abuse is inevitable. If you don’t know your purpose in life, you may abuse yourself and others. Therefore, purpose is all about being useful and living intentionally; it is a deliberate and strategic act of daily growth backed with impactful lifestyle.
An interesting excerpt on the need to find one’s purpose by Dr. Tony Rapu states thus: “Purpose is about knowing who you are and why you are born because if you don’t know who you are or why you are born, you will be disoriented in time, in space and in identity― Your purpose in life is not about you but about God because most of the time, it is bigger than you and it could be a burden too. Now guess what, you don't find your purpose. It is already in there and God orchestrates even your mistakes to take you to a place of purpose.”
The bottom line is, purpose is about living a life of impact and being intentional with it. There is a way you live intentionally that even when death comes, you will die empty. So, wherever you are, it is your duty to live in such a way that you will be an inspiration to yourself and to others. - Excerpt from, (Nuggets 700)
Finally, the 3rd book, Celebrity Decoded posits thoughts on personal reflections... ‘For every Star, there is a Scar; for every Glory, there is a Story… What’s yours?
‘Celebrity Decoded’ is a book on how to make yourself a Star in your field and specifically, written for aspiring artistes, entertainers and show business enthusiasts. For a lot of creative professionals, I know what it feels like to be known but still feel hidden even when sometimes, some of the things you require are decent living, social privacy and respect for your craft. One day you feel like you are validated and loved, the next moment, you feel like a shadow of your own self and question what you have created. How do you conquer this feeling and become a true star as you stand out in your world no matter the career path you choose? How do you decode your own epic and not feel bad for monetizing your talent's worth? I believe this is the right time to document and build lasting corporate structure in the entertainment industry across its various elements as we prepare for a robust global scale up, media market streaming and data content exportations, while young talents position to express their artistic essence and make a good life out of show business thereby leaving a legacy on the sands of time!
Celebrity Decoded gives you a theoretical approach to understanding the demands of the entertainment industry and the practical approach to living your best life while treading the path of fame and fortune. It is a practical book which provides an in-depth career revamping and creative insights that will make you stand out in the media, entertainment and showbiz world. No doubt the creative industry in Nigeria or should I say the African continent has created an impressive stampede on the global stage through its media, fashion, music and other creative exploits and there is a need for constant intrusion of show business knowledge, as well as wholesome clamor for a reliable industry structure and cooperate backup across our media and entertainment continent. It is a book that first advocates that, as individuals, there is a deposit of creative muse inside each of us that needs to be expressed and should not allowed to die. A talent is a hidden gift we all have and even if most of us engage in a 9-5 job, to survive, our skills and talents should be allowed expression beyond our comfort zones. This means, you can do your job and pay your bills, and you could also invest time doing what you love and eventually start gaining wealth and fame from it. This book will therefore serve as a pointer to explore the entertainment and creative industry from its business angle while inspiring you to look within your inner creative being and express yourself in ways that bring honor, wealth and fame to your personality, your career and lineage.
