THE BIG PICTURE

We are living in difficult times, a time of competition and innovation. Time of information, a time when it is clear that the rich live in abundance while the poor live in scarcity. Where does this dichotomy come from? What do people do to be different? How is it done? And then why do we do what we do? 

 

 Asking these questing of “WHY”, brings us closer to discovering how, where, when, and what we need to do to make things better for ourselves, for others and for the Universe. The reason why we do what we do is because we are driven by purpose and believe.

Simon Sinek describes purpose in his book “THE INFINITE GAME” as an endless feeling of fulfilment and passion to doing what needs to be done throughout our life nor matter what risk involved. It is our IKIGAI (the Japanese Formula for Happiness). Our sense of purpose is what leads us to The Big Picture.

THE BIG PICTURE is a clear mental definition of what you want to achieve. Napoleon Hill in his book “Think and Grow Rich” says "whatever the mind can conceive and Believe, it can achieve". The Big Picture concept describes the time and moment when we feel everything (at least what we want) is better than before. It represents the result of working hard every day with passion, our purpose in life and often is a combination of many other small achievements to become a new system or new lifestyle. It is applicable to every sectors of our lives and requires a mastermind alliance or synergy of visionaries or Visionary and followers to achieve it.

Examples of the BIG PICTURE concept can be

  • The vision of developing a digital system that’ll enable a global market for farmers in Africa to trade and boost the economy of Africans.

  • The vision of uniting all African countries to a common currency

  • The vision of all or Majority of Africans to believe in the African Tradition and Culture.

  • The vision of African youths investing time and energy to becoming self-employed after their university education or Degree.

  • The vision of considering skillful and talented African youths into positions of Leadership for the growth of our nation and Continent.

8 STEPS ON HOW YOU CAN ACHIEVE / ATTAIN THE BIG PICTURE OF YOUR LIFE?

  1. Considering you have identified your purpose, compare the standars of the life you are living now to that which you want it to look like(The Big Picture). identify the things around you that can serve you to build a working prototype of the big picture.

  2. Put the idea of improving the present status-quo on paper.

  3. Design small executable steps towards the attainment of your purpose and schedule each activity to be carried out into fix time frames.

  4. Do a little of it every day.

  5. Analyze the results of your current innovation and share your ideas with like-minded people as you.

  6. Repeat step 1 to 4 together with your team in an incremental way and then

  7. Take it to the market or Public.

Putting into mind that nothing good comes easy, be determined to achieve the BIG PICTURE of your life until you die.

Racism versus Growth

  T he problem of racism today is not the fact that a certain group of people are being discriminated against on the basis of their race but rather, it is the fact that people tend to inject racism into everything that there is. It has become the reinterpretation of everything that exists. As long as something does not promote a certain narrative, it is automatically tagged as being racist. It has gotten to a point where the very people who claim to be discriminated against are the ones propagating the worst form of racism. They have forgotten their roots and have lost focus. They have little to no idea why they are fighting. In other words, they are fighting against something which is contrary to what they think it is. In fact, they are now fighting a different fight, one which is not theirs and which is rather counter productive. Whether or not they have noticed the adverse effects of their actions is questionable but one thing remains clear and that is the fact that they love th...

Gender Equity VS Gender Equality

GENDER EQUITY VS GENDER EQUALITY As written in the  first book of the  Bible ,   God  first  made man and later made woman for fear of loneliness. But come to think he took time to make the woman from the man’ s rib means to an extent , a woman possess   so me capabilities  of the man  with the exception  of  fertilization . Women were  initially  created to assist men.  Assisting in a good sense does not solely mean working under someone. An employer can still assist an employee  wit h some needs he/she can not possess. This is to say that women can still assist men from any position  be it at professional level or at home . The first characteristic of a woman is management.

A Game Changer: The YYAS Program

            I'm Mbun Tangwe Ryan. An 18-year old final year high school student in and from Cameroon. If you're like me then you know that Education is a human right that too few people (especially us Africans) enjoy. I believe we as Africans have the power to change that narrative. Education is classified into Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary (university and beyond) education.     Many African students have what it takes to access the tertiary education they desire and deserve, but still, many of us still find ourselves stranded in that area because we lack the necessary information we need to get us where we dream to be. We lack knowledge on the world of work, education options, and we need career guidance.   The Yale Young African Scholars (YYAS) program was born to solve such issues and many more.  It is a cost-free intensive academic enrichment and leadership program designed for African secondary school students...
