I’ve been dreaming about an SLK for many years now and the day I’ll be able to purchase my own is coming closer and closer. Especially after watching a film, The Secret. I started using some visualisation techniques like pasting a photo on my wall, and also making it my Desktop background photo. I missed out on a test drive two weeks when I was stupid enough to forget my drivers license at home 🙁 Well I’m going to do that test drive within the next few weeks. What’s amazing is how frequently I’ve been seeing one on the road. So its a fitting tribute that its the 10 year anniversary of the SLK.
Tom Leykis makes the following analogy: A man drives the most expensive (best) car he can afford. No boy dreams of driving a Toyota or Volkswagen growing up. Boys dream of Ferraris or Lamborghinis growing up. So in reality, boys do not grow up dreaming of the average girl. They dream about Playboy playmates or the young hot actress in the latest teen comedy. The same may apply to women. Read this article here.
Went to see the Westlife concert at The Dome in Northgate today. Wow! I never thought much of this boy band and considered them a fad for a while. But hey, they’re really slick bunch and the music is very catchy. They put on a great show, but sad to say it was a bit…
I spent the last week in Cape Town and I’m heading back to good ol’ Joburg on Sunday. My good friend Russell allowed me to stay with him in Simon’s Town, and what a wonderful experience it has been. Sadly he’s boat is being painted and we won’t have a chance to go sailing or…
I’ve had the flu since last Friday and the coughing comes out in bursts. Besides that and little else, I’ve been spending time with a really special person. She cannot be named right now but I hope to real soon. A good friend and more she has emerged from a shell and allowed me into…
Watching a video by business coach Shannon Waller, I want to express my sincerest gratitude before Christmas 2014. Gratitude is an inoculation against guilt or anxiety in your life. When you are grateful and you appreciate the people and things you have, you don’t feel bad about what you don’t have in you life. These…
At the time of writing this blog I had been living in Johannesburg for almost 10 years. In fact I had lived in Newclare, Roodepoort, Randburg and finally purchased a house in Winchester Hills. Since I’ve been around for a while, I observe social interaction in a very different light. Firstly I pay attention to…
For anybody who doesn’t know me I was raised by my mother in Uitenhage, South Africa – a small town near Port Elizabeth. Andrew Arries was friends with my grandparents, and later everyone just called him, Uncle. For as long as I can remember he lived with us, in the old house at the back…
So, what are your main income streams?
I mean, that car will set u back quite a bit every month!
If you would like to share.
My income streams are from creating value for people. Specifically I’m changing my business model from consulting into training and speaking so that I can leverage my secret weapon: my mouth 😉
Cool 🙂
Yes, that’s definitely a nice weapon to have.
Have you always been a good speaker?
What does “creating value for people” mean?
I’d be willing to bet that you will soon be able to own your dream car. You would do great as a motivational speaker or spokesperson.
If you want to fast track your road to riches try starting up your own religion or politcal party!
Hey David
Creating value is an attitude of first giving someone something thy need that does one of the following three things:
When you do these three things you create value for your clients and others around you. And as you create more and more value people will provide you with bigger and bigger opportunities that can be directly or indirectly financial in nature.
I love your ideas regarding income streams, and that you’re able to use your skill to train people using your great lanuage skills. You deserve your success. I think I understand – don’t keep it a secret – if you’ve got it share the knowledge.
Oh, awesome!

Hey David
Creating value is an attitude of first giving someone something thy need that does one of the following three things:
1. Removing or Reducing Dangers
2. Capturing Opportunities
3. Reinforcing Strengths
When you do these three things you create value for your clients and others around you. And as you create more and more value people will provide you with bigger and bigger opportunities that can be directly or indirectly financial in nature.
