I went for an assignment today at the launch of Global Access Savings and Loans owned by Mr Kofi Amoah, owner of Citizen Kofi. I was picked up with my photographer to the launch at his new hotel at kokrobite. We got there a little late but the sea breeze was able to wash that away.
The hotel is situated by the beach and i believe by the time it is completed, it will will be rated as a five star hotel in the country.
Well I have never seen Mr Amoah personally. I only hear of his name. Soon the occasion started. The former Vice President of the Republic of Ghana Alhaji Aliyyu Mahama, graced the occasion with the beautiful actress Nadia Buari and Ghana man, David Dontoh. Speeches were read by Managing Directors and Board Chairmen of the company and soon the man himself Mr Amoako was called to deliver his speech.
I really did not really listen to what he was saying but i believed he was promoting his company by saying good things about it. All i remember i heard was he appealing to the government to invest more in the private sector which creates more employment for people in the country.
Later there were live performances from the highlife guru, Gedu Blay Ambullay and Beautiful sooth singer Irene Logan. Soon the programme was over and my thought were all flushed on talking with the big time entrepreneur, Mr Kofi Amoah. one question on my mind was to ask him how to be make money and be rich.
I approached him after lunch and said hi! Mr Amoah! i asked? Have ever read the book Rich Dad and the poor dad written by Robert T. Kiyosi before? he replied; yeah! Do you remember what Robert asked his rich dad? he asked what? he asked his rich dad "Teach me how to make money"! So I am asking you to teach me how to make money as my rich dad. Then he laughed!
"Well Making money and being rich is not difficult. It depends on on your attitude and the way you think!
I asked him how! And he replied! YOu have to task oriented. You should know what time your are doing this and that. Example: If I say i will be walking to Kumasi in five days. I should be able to get to Kumasi in five days. I have schedule my tasks to fit my time thereby accomplishing what I want to do.
You also have to Goal oriented. make sure you are able to achieve your goals at the desired time..... To be continued
