Just starting out in business? See Linda Ikeji’s inspiring words of wisdom

LAGOS, Nigeria – Celebrity blogger, Linda Ikeji was not born a rich girl. She was practically a pauper some years ago, but today the story is different. Now, about 40, the billionaire believes it is never too late to make it in life. She has learnt through experience that delay is not denial.
Besides, she said it is practically impossible for you to fastrack it through prayer and careful planning. For her, success has nothing to do with how much you plan or work but that all that you need is nothing but patience and trust in God’s perfect timing for what is meant for you.
As she puts it, the keyword is patience, never give up and continue working with increased determination.
“God will come through for you as long as you keep the faith, refuse to give up and keep working. Sometimes the delay is God preparing you for greatness beyond what you even envisioned.
“So don’t be down that you are not where you want to be now. Your breakthrough is coming! It may be taking a long time, but God didn’t bring you this far to leave you and you didn’t bring yourself this far to give up. So increase your determination, increase your drive, do everything with all your might and be patient”, she said.

The first time I stepped foot outside of Nigeria was in November 2011. I was 31. Before then, I’d never entered an international flight. I never had the opportunity to travel abroad and definitely couldn’t afford a holiday. I always wondered what the outside world looked like.
.
Fast forward to 7 years later. Now I can travel to any part of the world I want…maybe even take 10 people with me and give them a luxury trip. And throw in shopping money inside sef…lol.

I have learnt through my own journey that delay is not denial. Sometimes things will come when it will come. You can’t hurry it along no matter how much you work, plan or pray. What you need is patience and trust God’s perfect timing for what is meant for you.
God will come through for you as long as you keep the faith, refuse to give up and keep working. Sometimes the delay is God preparing you for greatness beyond what you even envisioned. So don’t be down that you are not where you want to be now.
Your breakthrough is coming! It may be taking a long time, but God didn’t bring you this far to leave you and you didn’t bring yourself this far to give up. So increase your determination, increase your drive, do everything with all your might and be patient.

Your time is coming! Oh, it will come…and soon! The question is; are you ready?
