\nThere exists a competition in Kogi state Nigeria where young men compete for the prize of a strong man. The competition involves eating goat meat. <\/span>A large amount of goat will be slaughtered and cooked in a delicious soup. Then, <\/span>young men, chaps will be invited to the feast. The last man to stop eating i.e. who eats a lot or the biggest amount of meat then emerge the winner. A very important condition of the feast is <\/span>that they are continuously flogged while they eat the meat: a <\/span>bittersweet experience if you choose to call it that way. The prize for winning <\/span>is two live goats.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nTherefore the winner is normally the one who can endure most while still \u2018enjoying\u2019.<\/span><\/div>\n
\nSometimes when we expect results either personally or in our business, there is a need to endure and persevere pain, difficult challenges, \u2018wilderness experience\u2019 etc.<\/span><\/div>\n
\nHere are some tidbits that were given to me by an elder to help in maintaining my life focus:<\/span><\/div>\n

\n4\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/span>always ask yourself questions relevant to your core competencies and whatever it is that you can be best in the world at;<\/span><\/div>\n
\n5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>all staff should be allowed to make known their deep-seated fears and doubts;<\/span><\/div>\n
