I don't care about your background,class or current financial situation.Just know that you can be anything you want to be in this life.On June 19th when I added another year,I had cause to reflect on my life,I sat down to look at my transformation from the poor girl to a journalist (who interviewed the likes of General Babangida and his wife,Maryam) and now,an Internet Marketer.I realised that at every point in time,I made a conscious decision to achieve that status and worked hard for it.Ok,I know you seem a bit lost,so,let me go back into memory lane.

I was born in Ghana to the Adeoye family,a semi-literate one.I am the fourth of five children but from day one,I determined to be literate even though my parents were semi-literate and they were willing to sponsor our education to University level.For my primary education,I attended Cambridge Preparatory School in Korle Gonno,Accra.For me secondary,I attended Accra High School and I must say this School influenced my life a lot.For starter's,the motto of the school is 'Redimentes Opportunitatem'-a latin phrase meaning-make hay while the sun shines.This greatly influenced my actions then and even now as I always strive to do things as at when due.So,whatever you are doing today,please make hay while the sun shines.

It was while I was in Accra High School that the seed of becoming a journalist was sown.There was this career lecture that was done when we were in Form 3.The lecturer talked extensively about the different career chioces available to us and one of the careers happened to be journalism.There and then,I made up my mind to become a journalist.I passed out of the secondary school and in January 1995,my parents asked me to come to Nigeria.Settling in Nigeria,I tell you was not easy at all.I remember the first day when I wanted to enter a bus,I almost fell down because in Ghana,a bus will wait for you to enter,not the way we jump into buses here in Lagos.I am not saying this to deride Lagosians but to tell you about my struggles to adapt to lagos life,although,I have come to get used to it over time.

When I got here,my brother started the process of registering me for JAMB,while that was going on,a family friend introduced us to Nigerian Institute of Journalism's evening programs.The idea was to keep me busy while I process my JAMB.So,I enrolled for the Diploma in Public Relations' course.Although I was doing well in the course,I was not happy,I wanted to join the Journalism class.It was not easy changing but I was determined and I even lost the 6 or so months that I spent in the Public relations class as I was told I have to start afresh.It didn't bother me however,because I had the dream of becoming a journalist.I graduated after 2 years and then got a job with City People.This job,no doubt,exposed me to the creme-dela-creme of the society and the height of it was when I got an interview appointment with General Babangida and his wife.Everybody in City People respected me after then,but there was still this nagging feeling,this feeling of emptiness that I had not yet started fulfilling my purpose in life.So,in August 2007,I decided to throw in the towel,even though everybody felt I was wrong.I just had the conviction that that was the right thing to do.

Prior to that time,I had started my Internet business,attended Dr Ojeagbase's Internet bootcamp and was doing it on a parttime basis.Then,I used to call myself an employee by day,entrepreneur by night.Those were really heady days as I will not sleep for days but I knew what I wanted,so,I did not mind the sacrifice.Fasttrack 2008 and I am on my own as an Internet Marketer.Only God knows what I will become next but I have told my story above to encourage you that you can be anything you want to be in life.It doesn't matter where you are coming from,it doesn't matter who you are,it doesn't matter where you are presently,you can be anything you want to be in this life.Nothing can stop you,YOU have all it takes to achieve your dreams.As you go through this week,affirm it to yourself,tell yourself 'I have all it takes to achieve my dreams,I can be anything I want to be in life' and I tell you,the Lord who made my dreams come true,will make yours come true.

Nothing is too great for you to achieve,there's no mountain too high for you to climb.Or have you not seen the new Peak Milk advert? It says the peak is in you.So,if your goal is to make a million bucks from the Internet before the end of this year,it's not too high,you can achieve it and to assist you,I have an Internet Millionaires' Summit coming up where I will teach the exact secrets I have used to generate stupendous wealth from the Internet.Plus,I shall teach you the exact secrets I have used to successfully quit my day job,just by doing Internet business.

Na wa o!!!!!!!!!!!! Till you read some peoples' story, you will think they had it easy from day one. Little do i know i was with a dual citizen when i was in Lagos. I'm sure that soon, we will use your citizenship in Ghana to organise a seminar there. (Don't mind me)

Sincerely, your story awaken the giant within me and i am sure, something will begin at my end soon. May be i'll be the one to bring you my base here for seminar.

I wish you more prosperous life as you touch more lives. Imagine yourself at age 80 (if Jesus tarries), mentoring your grandchildren about online biz, can you? As far as your eyes can see............
