Democracy

You are the enemy of autocracy
You bring literacy ekasi (ghetto)
Democracy is the rule of the people
By the people, for the people
Through the people
Amandla ebantwini
Inhlonipho emphakathini
Ubuntu ebantwini

Democracy you are the solution to Africa`s autocracy
You are the cousin of liberty, equality and fraternity

Thumbs up to all democrats!!
For many souls
Have been lost in political battles
Many remain with political scars
Their hearts are decorated with sores
Many have been lost in demonstrations
In their plight for social emancipation

Cowards say: in democracy the minority will have their WAY,
The majority will have their SAY
Alas!! For today we a generation of valiant soldiers
Soldiers who won’t bow down
Until the majority have their WAY

This surpasses the desire for money or any gain whatsoever!Money cannot buy you a vision but a clear vision can get you money.

The influence in a leader

Every song comes from another song, every leader succeeds another, every story end is the beginning of another, every person is from a successfully fertilised sperm and every story repeats and continues another. Likewise success breeds success and so shall the sperm of success when natured, monitored and groomed well it shall produce success. The power of influence can only be useful when put into motion , the same applies with leaders who have influence but don’t direct it towards transforming societies. The power of influence however cannot function without the necessary environment.Influencial leaders are people who are able to create a conducive environment for them to exert that influence, they don’t force people to buy into their vision but their works act as a bait to lure followers. Influence is earned over time, remember that there is always competition for it .In the same fashion only a competitive sperm can result in fertilisation. “We are all cut out from the sam...

The power of motivation

The power of motivation is the positive feeling that we give to others ,that jump- starter ,that push ,that support,that understanding,that voice that says to someone :"Yes you can do it " makes a difference on a daily basis .The power of what we say to others has the potential of nurturing great leaders or to totally destroy them ,for indeed there is power in what we say .As such a good leaders have the ability to motivate ,to acknowledge and appraise good perfomance that is  done by others Motivation is spiritual and leadership is viral.Motivation is not a new subject but an old theory which is still practical and relevant in both leadership and management   today,tomorrow and in the future.Stay motivated!!
