Talent Management
I know a rapper who was so talented that I couldn’t believe there will be any point in his music career where his popularity would wane. Unfortunately, he’s begun falling gradually and I was so sad to see it. To me, the problem is mentorship. When artists get to that point where they are managers…

No Limit

Patience
A farmer has a cutlass in hand, before him stretches of grass to be mowed. The heat from the sun is enervating, yet he pays no attention. He pays no attention, to his aching back and waist. He is not discouraged by the little work done so far as against the vast unfinished job ahead.…
