    Great advice from him!
    1. surround yourself with great minds
    2. Do all the hard things first. do the hard work earlier!
    3.Do not be comfortable! get out of your comfort zone.
    4. We all have a part to play in rewriting of the narrative around our African countries.

Now despite Zambia being the poorest of the 3 there is no South African migrant in Zambia who is a poor person, even if they were poor in South Africa when they come to Zambia they see new opportunities and improve their lives, so your perfect opportunities could be anywhere, you have to look and find my Brother, I love you!

    The biggest takeaway from this video is that majority of success stories started from FAILURE. There is no success story that doesn't have a bump on the way. Interesting to see Nigerians doing AMAZING things making Nigeria proud. I like when he said JUMP. Most entrepreneurs get to that IMPORTANT moment when they decide to jump, GO BIG, or GO HOME. He has ACHIEVED a lot at a very young age. This type of video is always INSPIRING. 'Helping other people solve problems. Success and money come from solving problems. Focusing on solving problems is one of the greatest ways to use the MIND. Every time I see TAYO's video, I don't only dwell on the content, I also appreciate how good TAYO is at his CRAFT.

      I don't think it's wise decision for SA. This opportunities are suppose to be for SA locals. We are aware that SA has the talents in IT and do exchange gov to gov trade deals with Nigeria and many other African states but this solely opportunity providing software deals with some SA gov agencies and private SA organizations locally can be a threath to SA economy manipulated by Nigerians. U can't open this local opportunities to criminals especially Nigerians. U can bring in a respected and trusted big org from Nigeria gov to gov deals than allowing just an individual Nigerian owner to explore SA local opportunities. The reason being if such organization expand abroad it will be a Nigerian out there but not a SA organization even if it's registered in SA it will still look like it's owned by a Nigerian easily manipulated to favour Nigeria. U can't have a Nigerian having contracts with our gov departments and driving that Potion off IT sector in SA lands it can be manipulated especially working with our government internal agencies. I say SA shouldn't allow this to happen at all dispose this Nigerian business and invest in SA locals in the IT sector we have enough skills and experience and market in the IT sector that SA can explore.

    - You can't disrupt something you don't understand.
    - Credibility is a big thing when it comes to Entrepreneurship. You have to PROVE yourself at all cost.
    - If you know what you have, just JUMP. No need to fear risk-taking.
    - It is essential to get comfortable being UNCOMFORTABLE.
    - Always show up prepared, mainly because of your "disadvantaged" background.
    - Do the HARD things FIRST.
    - Get out of your COMFORT zone.
    - When all is said and done, TELL YOUR STORY to inspire others.
