• The time you spend hunting investors is better used serving customers.

• Daily reading/listening compounds into superior decisions.

• Identity drives execution: study African history to restore confidence.

• Ghana’s informal sector is the fastest path to income—solve visible problems.

• Grow organically: reinvest profits before lifestyle upgrades.

• Debt recovery = honesty, negotiation, structured paydown, better decisions.
