the dark horse of love relationships
In a constantly confused and confusing world, I have grown tired of the nonsense surrounding love relationships and marriages, and I strongly despise the counterproductive narratives that are so common these days, which contribute a whole lot to the increasing rate of failed love relationships and marriages. The ever increasing consequences borne out of failed love relationships despite the very many relationship materials available, along with the clamor of many who have reached out to me for counsel and advice regarding these relatable issues, has driven me to address these issues in a direct, blunt and concise manner in THE DARK HORSE OF LOVE RELATIONSHIPS; the kind of advice one gets from a parent, brother, sister, or friend who shows you tough love by not sugarcoating anything but telling you the truth that many will either not tell you or will adulterate it in order not to hurt your feelings. I sought to “hurt your feelings” with loving truth so that you turn out well as opposed to not “hurting your feelings” and allow you fall into a ditch. I take it for granted that we all understand the importance of having people with this mindset around us. This book goes straight to the point, and in it you will find timeless truths and concepts that if you understand, and faithfully make them your reality, you will be shocked, pleasantly shocked, as to how in such basic, underrated concepts lie the secret to truly blissful love relationships.

Life is full of highs and lows, and four friends—Rudy, Morgan, Alex, and Ola, are about to face their lowest lows amid their highest highs. After losing her two daughters in a fatal car crash, Rudy ends her loveless marriage. But just when she thinks the worst is over, she will be confronted by a loss that truly shakes her to the core. Morgan, on the other hand, is still recovering from the shock of her husband’s affair with her friend, Alex, and is doing her best to settle into life as the single-mother of an adopted daughter. Unfortunately, life does not think it has dealt her enough blows yet, and will stretch its prying claws to snatch her sweetest joy. Then there is Alex, who abdicates her throne as the CEO of a reputable hospital to follow her passion—leading a non-profit organization in its quest to build schools all around the world.

will you marry me?
Your choice of a life partner will define the rest of your life and this is not something to take lightly. I won’t bore you with so much in the introduction. I will simply invite you into the book to examine your considerations and weigh your thoughts. In the end, you will find yourself putting your suitors on the right scale or putting yourself on the scale to see how balanced your considerations are. When I see marriages fail, I feel terribly bad because the trend can be arrested if single people can be told the truth. The truth is not far, many of these marriages did not fail at the marriage phase, marriage was just the imploding ground for a relationship wrongly founded. It is my hope therefore that you will find this book simple and easy to read. I pray also that as you follow the wisdom shared in this book, your testimony will be that, ‘I read it, applied it and my life has turned out so good!’ Enjoy a great read.

dear leader
Anyone and everyone who has led exceptionally well discovered a sense of meaning and significance in life. They discovered that leadership is not a role to be played, but rather, it is a life to be lived. It is a 365-day way of life. Leading is not what you do once in a while. I am a firm believer that what you do every day will determine your yearly outcome. Whatever you do consistently, for a long period of time, becomes your habit. For leaders, leading every day is important, and when I say “for leaders”, I do not mean a particular set of people or a selected few as it were, I mean anyone including you.

How to read a financial statement. In this book you will learn how to chase your dreams rather than being used as a bite for others.
