Four weeks ago, we opened the doors of DREAM Academy.

Just in case you don’t know what DREAM Academy is, I’d tell you.

D.R.E.A.M Academy is a personal and professional development academy that teaches you how to fulfill your DREAMS by leveraging relevant information and creative strategies.

D.R.E.A.M is an acronym for Developing Reformers, Entrepreneurs, Advocates and Managers and our mission is to groom a new generation of leaders who will create positive transformation in their own lives and subsequently in the socio-economic sphere of their Nations.

God planted the idea in my mind over three years ago but I’m glad it came to fruition last month. We called the first session of the Academy, “THE PIONEERS”.

It was an experience which many of us will never forget.

We had five days of practical wisdom, cutting edge strategies, thought-provoking discussions, team tasks, networking and indescribable yet pure fun.

Also, just like I had promised, the BEST TRAINEE went home with a BRAND NEW iPad 2. We had an extraordinary time learning from one another and from our EXTRAORDINARY facilitators who gave us much more than we bargained for.

Testimonies are still pouring in and I’d share some of them with you some other time.
My heart is filled with joy because I know that several lives have been positively transformed and their results
with speak for them over the coming days and years.

If you were one of “THE PIONEERS” who attended the first season of DREAM Academy, I’m saying a heartfelt
“THANK YOU”. God bless you beyond your wildest dreams.

If you were not at DREAM Academy, I wish you were. I hate to say this especially because I don’t like it when people
say it to me but you missed. Not to worry anyway because we recorded EVERY TEACHING SESSION and we have them in Mp3
and Mp4 formats. You’d really love them. The good thing is that you can PAUSE, REWIND, FAST-FORWARD and PLAY
all AT YOUR OWN PACE.

Even if you were there, you will still learn a lot more when you watch the videos or listen to the audio.

If you are interested in getting copies, just indicate by leaving a comment in the box below. Also, fill in
your email so that we can get in touch with you.

Stay on top and whatever you do, remember to LIVE YOUR DREAMS.

I am excited that November is here.

The year started on a really bright note for me and I am grateful that things are even much brighter now. I really hope you can say the same. What I have tried to do all through this year is to shine the light which I have been given by God on other people’s pathways.

I believe that we have LIFE to give LIFE.

We are BLESSED to BLESS others.

I congratulate you because you are still alive and you have another opportunity this month to give life to those who come in contact with you.

If you feel like you haven’t really accomplished much this year, not to worry, you still have 60 whole days to make things happen.

Congrats again. Now go DO SOMETHING REALLY SPECIAL this month.

The news is everywhere. Steve Jobs has breasted the tape at the end of this human race.

One thing is clear. He made his MARK. (Excuse my pun in the title.)

He was a genius whose creativity has helped to shape to shape mankind forever.

Men and women, boys and girls from all over the world will continue to shower encomiums of him for a long time to come, not because of the duration of his life but because of the impact that he made.

He lived and he changed the way millions of people live. He was not oblivious of the fact that life was an opportunity to give and not just to get.

Some have said, “Three APPLES changed the world. The first one tempted Eve, the second inspired Newton and the third was offered to the world half eaten by Steve Jobs.”

That Apple is Steve’s gift to us. It’s a gift that keeps on giving.
His life should inspire us to give also. First, we must give all that we have to God, the real owner and giver of all good things.

Next, we must give to those around us.

Thirdly, we must give to those yet unborn by pouring out all that God put in us through goods, products and services that will continue to live long after we breath our last.

In Steve’s words, “Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.” That’s good advise, you’d agree.

Even in his death, Steve Jobs still speaks.

Over the years, I’ve hosted one day events-workshops, trainings and seminars. Many attendees of such events still send in their testimonies. It’s always been my desire to deliver greater value than you’d ever be able to pay for and by the grace of God, that has always been the case.

In the real sense, you can’t pay for the actual value you derive from our events. DREAM Academy promises to be even more rewarding for you because it is not a one day event. It is 5 days of interaction, discussions, personal assessment, video presentations, powerpoint presentations and a whole lot more and you’d have the golden opportunity to learn from the brightest minds on this side of the planet. Moreso, you network with other high performers, showcase your goods and services and RE-INVENT yourself.

Opportunities like this don’t come often so I’d advise you to seize it.

If you are really keen on making a difference and doing something significant in this generation, do all you can to be at DREAM Academy next week.

If you read my last post, you’d observe that I promised to give you an INCREDIBLE INDEPENDENCE DAY GIFT.

Here it is: As Nigeria turned 51 a few days ago, I’m giving you a 51% discount off the tuition for DREAM Academy.

Do the math, that means, you get to pay N9 800 only. That barely covers the actual cost of hosting you.

I realize that there are many people who desperately want to be a part of the Academy but they currently do not have the financial wherewithal to pay the full tuition. This is my gift to them.

I’ve tried. It doesn’t get better than this.

However, let me add that this offer expires by 2pm on Friday, October 7, 2011.

No amount of pleading or persuading will make me extend it.

Also, once all the seats are filled, we would have to refund your money so hurry to the bank and make your payment into:

DREAMSTREAM RESOURCES CO. LTD.

It’s always good to hear from you.

She couldn’t get over the array of brilliant speakers that will be teaching at the Academy.

One good thing is that I have a personal relationship with each of them, howbeit on varying levels and

I can assure you that the my life has been positively transformed through my relationship with them. That is the main reason I

have asked them to take time out of their extremely busy schedule to share their insights with us at DREAM Academy.

They are not just coming to “speak English”. They have a mandate to make a difference.

You may not have seen a hard copy of the flyer and you may not have been able to read the fine print on the soft copy so let me

give you a run down of our facilitators at DREAM Academy.

Olakunle Soriyan has failed many times in life. He spent twelve years in the university studying a four-year course before he eventually came out with a degree. He spent a good number of those years managing social vices ranging from gang-violence to drug addiction—he’s tasted everything from chewing gum to cocaine. Today, he is a detailed researcher, philosopher, instructor, trainer, Transformation Strategist of high pedigree. He consults for both private businesses and government parastatals.

If you have never heard this man speak, you are in for a time of your life. He is literally a dynamite. He weaves his wise words with a judicious proportion of wit. Your life can never be the same after you have listened to Kunle Soriyan.
