Joesupreme is a nickname to enable my contacts and friends from all backgrounds to remember me and easily pronounce my name.
My given name is Joseph Kyere born and bred in Ghana (West Africa) till I migrated to Canada in 1987. I currently live in Ontario, Canada.
I have worked in warehousing (shipping & receiving), the financial services industry (personal banker) and over 6yrs in Transportation. I owned and operated a tractor trailer servicing some provinces in Canada and most states in the USA. I am currently pursuing my writing, marketing and investment business that I had always longed to establish.
The last but not the least, I definitely believe in ALL that the Bible teaches about God and the provision of reconciliation with HIM through His son Jesus Christ. That is my faith and mind set. I continually strive to always have a clear conscience in all my dealings. Do unto others as you want others to do unto you.
W.I.I.G.S. (wiigs) is an acronym that denotes the 5 ways to acquire wealth. This is my summarization of it and I hope it is simple enough for all to comment.
W. This stands for WORK. We all have to work in order to achieve our financial goals. That is the most important and universal way in this universe to acquire wealth. This is by means of skills and abilities that every human being possesses to contribute to their society so that they earn a living. Be very diligent with this way and you will better your chance of gaining great wealth.
I. This stands for INVESTMENT. We have to invest some time, money and resources to propel us to achieve our financial goals. Our investment mixed with work increases the odds yet again.
I. This stands for INHERITANCE. These are some very fortunate individuals who relish in the toil of others family members. They are just handed down enough wealth needed to build upon for greater wealth. Some fail miserably because they are not conditioned for that kind of responsibility. Those that get an inheritance and mix it with work and investment do even greater things.
G. This stands for GIFTS. A gift of financial wealth that does not match the required effort put into acquiring it. I believe God has a say in every gift. Sometimes I associate that with gambling, where someone buys a $2 lottery ticket and ends up winning some crazy amount. This is very rare though and if I may add, those who chase that hope are more hurt than they know.
S. This stands for STEALING. This is when some people use immoral and illegal ways to achieve their financial goals. Lying, cheating, scamming, robbing, even killing to increase financial wealth.
Obviously you are informed enough to pursue attaining financial wealth the right way.
WORK and INVEST but please DO NOT STEAL
Look up how Wikipedia defines the word dictator and read on with an open mind. The association of God and the word DICTATOR is thought provoking. I have struggled with thoughts like this one and numerous thoughts about God. Why is He? Where is He? Which is He? What is He? When is He? And finally who is He?
GOD as a Dictator is a RULER who ASSUMES SOLE and ABSOLUTE POWER with CONTROL but, without HEREDITARY ASCENSION.
Reason one, HEREDITARY ASCENSION:
We still don’t know where He came from. We grabble at scenarios and thoughts as to God’s origin but that is a futile exercise. We know many people occupied this universe and for sure God was before them. History even at times cannot trace the origin of some great people and I don’t think it will satisfy the hereditary ascension of God.
Reason two, HE IS THE SOLE RULER:
God does what He wants, when He wants to do it, how He wants to do it, how many times He wants to do it, at anytime, anywhere and He does not have to ask permission from anyone including me or you. Don’t be offended by such a dogmatic and arrogant statement because my third reason might shed some light on this. Sometimes don’t you have moments where you want to question God? Bring Him to bear for what you are experiencing? He can choose to answer, ignore or teach you something about what He is doing.
Reason three; HE HAS ABSOLUTE POWER with CONTROL:
Let us look at 3 important words. ABSOLUTE (loosened from limitation or condition, complete in itself). POWER (Power refers broadly to any ability to effect change or exert control over either things or people). CONTROL (Control is used in a variety of contexts to express “mastery” or “proficiency”). Yes that is why He is the sole ruler. He has the absolute power and control. This is not a human dictator who might have military power and control for a while. That is why human beings cannot compare to the ultimate Dictator.
Without limitation or condition and with mastery and proficiency, God is complete in Himself to effect change or exert control over things or people! That is why it is said so many times “The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom”.
In these tough economic times, the thought of having and running a home based business may be very appealing to many people. While this type of business can be quite successful and provide some excellent rewards, there are some serious challenges to consider before jumping right in. It’s not to say that one shouldn’t embark on this journey if they feel truly passionate about it, but it’s worth considering certain things.
You will not get a regular paycheck, particularly at first. Running a home based business takes awhile before you really start to see some profit. So if you are looking to get your business up and running quickly and hope to be relying on this as a viable source of income, be very careful of this premise. It’s also rather important to consider that there may be many more people out there trying to do the very same thing as you.
If you are running a business focused on gift baskets for example, with the economic times being what they are, there is likely far more competition out there. What would have been limited local or online competition has grown exponentially with continued layoffs and people trying to find a “Plan B” for their family finances.
It’s also quite important to realize that running a home based business is not often a 9-5 type of job. This will require some serious time input on your part, especially at the beginning. If you are looking to make this work but only within the few hours a day that you can truly dedicate to it, then really think it through. To be successful with this type of business, you often have to dedicate a good chunk of time and miss out on other life events in the process.
