Some months back, Doctor Samuel got our conference hall teary-eyed during his speaking session.
Doc Samuel, who had become a renowned pediatrician in the country, shared that he was a product of a widow who sent him and 7 other siblings to formal school while selling puff-puff.
They joined their mother hawking puff-puff in the streets of Mutengene as early as mid school years. They got into every kind of hustle over the holidays to add to momโs efforts to see them through school.
Street hustle has undoubtedly transformed lives of children and families.
Many can relate to Doc Samuelโs story, and others have different experiences.
Hustling in the streets might not be admirable to some, but have winning cultures successful people give attention to.
1๏ธโฃ The Culture of Authenticity
Street hustlers are not afraid to be themselves. They have reconciled with their background and even identity.
Hustlers are proud of what puts food on the table, operating within moral, ethical & legal bounds.
Authenticity builds trust and genuine connect with people, teams and /or customers.
2๏ธโฃ The Culture of Creating Own Opportunities
Hustlers donโt wait for opportunities to come to them - they create their own opportunities.
This mindset will help you stay proactive, having a competitive edge in the marketplace and staying relevant in business.
Hustlers know that no one is coming to help them. They do not wait for destiny helpers. They are conscious that their well-being is their responsibility.
3๏ธโฃ The Culture of Consistency
Hustlers are not controlled by mood swings. They show up daily.
Moving out daily puts food on the table. Theyโd starve the day they give excuses.
On several occasions, people/ businesses show up for public opinions and fail to show up for themselves.
Showing up daily is more than just the meal, bills, and wanting to prove a point. Showing up daily is a symbol of strength for them. Showing up daily is a demonstration of hope.
Cheers to life and business success.
