10 People that influenced my business and what you should learn from them

Author Henry Omenogor

In anything you do, there are those behind, there are those who influences you. There are those who you get inspirations from. I have therefore decided to write today on those who has influenced my life, my business and this site to stay up and running with quality content. It has been challenging posting on daily basis for years on several blogs. It is therefore important that I write today those who influence me to carry on.

1. Steve Jobs: This icon is late but he lives. He has had a lot of influence on me with thinking about using creativity to change the world. I love Jobs just like so many people love him even when he is dead. The lesson he has taught many is that you need to create and get rich through adding value to lives. Today, the ipads, notpads, androids all are applications for communication technology. He transformed apple into a giant

2. Joe Vitale (Mr. Fire): I am an avid fan of Joe Vitale, the man of the Film The Secret. He calls himself Mr. Fire, But I call him “MotiFire”. Joe Vitale’s books, Life and Success gives me inspiration. In fact, at the end and beginning of each year I go back to read one of his his book titled Attract Money Now, which I call my second bible. Joe was a man who lost everything and started sleeping outside but discovered the secret of attracting money, love and happiness into his life. Since then, he has been a source of inspiration to many. His book tells me to ask for more help, the power of mastermind and JVs.

I have used lots of Joe’s principles to attract the right partners, even in online business into my life. I have also recommended this principles during my trainings to some of my attendees and I have testimonies.

I will kindly plead that you download Joe’s “Attract Money Now” as he has made the ebook free online. Read it and let it change your life. Click Here to Download attract money Now for free

3. Ronda Byrne: Ronda Byrne is the Author of the book The Secret. I read The Secret book and watch the DVD quarterly each year. The Secret is a book that has influenced my life since I got in contact with the small book. I used the secret to start publishing my magazine “Start Your Own Business“, through the power of visualization. After reading the book, I tore the cover of a magazine, wrote the name of my magazine on a paper and covered the name of the magazine with mine. Then pasted it at my bedroom door. I asked my wife to always visualize that she is seeing our Magazine instead of that magazine. In six months, we have hit the news stand.

Originally, I am a writer but not a published author. I used The Secret to also start my book publishing business which I still run today. Look for The Secret book and the DVD to buy and use it.

4. Mark Zuckerberg: This guy won the list of people who has influenced my life as he personifies courage. I borrowed some life techniques from Mark as I embark on various challenges each year. In 2012 for exmple, I am concentrating on using the next 6 months to learn Twi Language as well as Eat only Vegetable diet with no fish or meat. I will be a vegetarian for six months and have the experience. My influence on taking odd challenges was from Mark.

On the business side, I have lined up challenging creative concepts that will be born on the 1st of January, 2012.

5. Jesus Christ: I am a Christian. I do realize the impact I had this year with studying the life of Christ. Everyone has their belief system. I am anchored to a higher power and you can call it different names. Reading and studying His life gives me sense of perseverance, persistence, patience, love, contributing to humanity and believing it was going to be alright during challenging times. I have learned to put him first as the Chairman of my various businesses. To know more about him visit Jesus Christ Website

6. Jack Vanfield and Mark Victor Hansen: As an author, I keep reading to write. I must confess that these authors of Chicken Soup for Soul, 101 Stories to open the heart and rekindle the spirit is a great book. It has influence in my life. In fact it is a daily routine for me and the powerful stories has left great impact in me.

7. Bezos of Amazon: The founder of Amazon, Bezos makes the list of business people that influenced me and my life. His concept in creating Amazon is anchored in seeing what the future holds and thinking the future.

9. Jack Ma, Founder Alibaba.com, a China company: Jack is on the list of people who has influenced me. He had concept of creating an online trading shop that sells everything physical products and shipped to anywhere in the world. His secured payment system with escrow.com is a great alliance too. I run very small import business from Jack’s second site Aliexpress.com where I buy technology related products. Jack is an influence. You can read about Jack Ma here

10. You MY Reader: Yes, you, I mean you reading this article. Like any human beings, I am a bunch of mistakes as I live daily. In fact, some ideas that I try to implement don’t work. This is because I test and test and test. I pick the one that works and leave what do not work. I will still make mistakes tomorrow I already know. But in the process of running businesses and blogging, you will see both the good and the ugly.

In fact, I have met many good people that we connect, even as partners in business and I have also met the worst kind of people in the process. I have been able to work on my emotion and nothing makes me flare after knowing and experiencing the fact that we are all human. I have learned to forgive the ugly ones even before they become ugly, this way, I live and blog comfortably carrying my business on. You are my biggest influence and I appreciate you so much too. It is you that gives me the courage to keep posting on this blog, otherwise, I would have long given up. But since I swore to always write what is beneficial to you, I will keep doing it. Readers must know that sites need to be sustained and money made from this blog to keep it going so you can still read and make success.

Thanks for influencing me too.
