Asante sana Dan for your kind word. It surely goes a long way.
Very soon, I’ll embark on another installment of interviews with entrepreneurs who are quite an inspiration to us all.
My best wishes in your endeavors too.
Cheers!

Thanks Pete for the invitation to back to the Walkabout. I know for a fact that blogging is really easy in theory. You have to keep digging deeper into yourself to do it consistently in practice.

By the way I loved your report on Kenyan entrepreneurs. I wish you could have a living document with more stories on that.

Here are a couple of extra quotes from Obama

* “Making your mark on the world is hard. If it were easy, everybody would do it. But it’s not. It takes patience, it takes commitment, and it comes with plenty of failure along the way. The real test is not whether you avoid this failure, because you won’t. it’s whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere”.

* “Focusing your life solely on making a buck shows a certain poverty of ambition. It asks too little of yourself. Because it’s only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself that you realize your true potential”.

All the best and may the walkabout move from strength to strength.

Thanks for this Pete. To add to this, my life coach told me it takes three things:
Purpose
Discipline
Focus

This and a balanced life will get you anywhere you want to go.
