Want to succeed in business and academics? Kill the thought that you are depressed.

A lot of people walk around feeling depressed, and it is becoming a world wide problem not just to themselves but to their parents, siblings and the society at large.

Depression as known has caused a rising amount of suicide on a daily basis, research showed that ever 40 seconds, someone commits suicide!

Not just about suicide, it has caused a lot of people to give up on themselves.

Disappointments and failures are inevitable as humans, we face them in business, academics, career, marriage and so many other daily routines.

An entrepreneur or student who wants to achieve much must know that, he must fail. Of the greatest stories of sailors, I've never heard of a smooth sail. So is it in business and academics there is never an easy way to business success or academic excellence, and no successful person today got there feeling depressed.

What is even depression? Here is how Miriam Webster dictionary defined it-

 a state of feeling sad

: a serious medical condition in which a person feels very sad, hopeless, and unimportant and often is unable to live in a normal way

Many people think they are depressed when actually they are not. And if you keep holding on to that feeling, it's very impossible to embark on life changing adventures.

What if steve Jobs got depressed about his rejections applying for jobs, what if steven Spielberg got depressed and gave up on DreamWorks™, what if Donald Trump got depressed after he went bankrupt.

This is something most motivational speaker never teach, but check the records yourself. Only positive minds achieve what they set their minds to.

Have you read the book "As a man thinketh"? If no then go on the google play store and get it or even better visit your book store.

Kill that thought in your head that you are depressed, you are not. Did your sales decline, go to your desk and write a plan, did you fail in school or an exam? Read and comeback again, that's how to succeed.

Why government job? Here are 5 businesses to startup in Nigeria.

While a majority of the Nigerian population are forcing their way into the public sector to meet ends, a lot of opportunities are dieing down, and remain untapped in the country.   A nation that have produced the richest man in African, richest woman in Africa  and a growing large telecom company, but yet its citizens still run to government to offer them jobs.

Sir Isaac Newton would pass for the definition critical thinking personified. It was recorded that Newton was taking a peaceful walk in his garden when he suddenly spot an apple falling from a tree. He sat thinking why the apple did not fall sideways or went back up, but fall down to the ground. From that unfolding, he embarked on a research and came up with the law of gravity. Yes, whatever goes up must come down.   But you know what? Apples fall everyday. Yes, the little things that happen to and around us daily are like the falling apple in Newton's garden.
