The Accounting Business

I grew and had employees working for me. This made it a business. I would raise capital for startups, business proposals, cashflows and keep clients books of accounts.

The little boys we hired misbehaved at the clients office we were housed and they were kicked out. The client requested that no one but me do the books. I was left with no option but to layoff the kids.

I had a partner who we multiplied the business with due to the hyperinflation in Zimbabwe. We shared two clients each. I got the more demanding and difficult clients.

I lost a client due to asking for timely payments. I did internal audits for a clothes retail shop called BQ in the Rainbow Towers. The other client paid less than $1 a month in Zim Dollars but I kept them but it has gave me good fruit they now give me good money. Another new client paid in fruit Juices.

With time I reconciled with the Internet Cafe in the Rainbow Towers who had sacked me for demanding timely payment. As I write last month I was fired a second time because the manager and I did not have some good chemistry. We have since reconciled. I have lost both the clothes retail and the juice retailer due to low business and change in the economy.

I am left with two clients and keep thinking. That led me to the vehicle sales business.

The Farm Produce Business

This was the first business that I established after employ. It envolved farm produce retail.

I had no capital at all, I was idea rich. A friend financed the project.

We bought a VW Golf for purchases and deliveries. It cost $430.

We registered the company and formalised everything.

I saw all things work together for the good for those that love God when the financing partner pulled out. I was stuck and and no business to run.

When a door is closed several are opened another business was birthed.

Starting A Business

I had just read a book called Rich Dad Poor Dad and was challenged. I knew it was within me to start a business. I became serious and opened it.

My adult work work experience has always been with Entreprenuers. This had a big impact on me as I could say if they did it why can I not do it.

I worked with Pat-nel Asset Managers, Royal Car Sales and KFM Consultants. I knew I could do what other humans have done and even more.

My first step was to write a letter of resignation on 30 November 2006. This was a step of faith into the deep end.

Introduction

My observation of life is that as a Christian you will always prosper. You may fall several times but your rise is certain.

I lost both parents by the age of 20. I had promises of people who would look after me and my siblings but it did not come to be. My encouragement was that, the time people wanted to give to Abraham he turned it down saying the people would boast saying we made Abraham rich. Abraham said God has made me the rich man I will be.

I had to work during my university years to make ends meet. How did I get opportunity to work in a country with 90% unemployment. It was because God has spoken that he is the father to the fatherless. He has not looked back but continues to provide.

Jesus is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.

I was 10 years of age when I got born again. I had not heard of a thing that is called born again until I heard of the story of Nicodemus. I made the decision and ran for it.

Imagine before I was born Jesus had died for me. My sins were forgiven, they still are forgiven today and will be forgiven tomorrow.

Why do you not receive Jesus as your personal saviour.

I did it, and I was born again.

Receive Him
