		<description>Hmm!
Since 2006 i was introduced to this site, its been wao!
I would say it was the first blog i ever knew and visited. it was from here i stumbled on Adeolu&#039;s and i have been addicted to both ever since.
I owe mine blog first and formost to this site even though you didn&#039;t continue the series on blogging that inspired me to start up mine..... it was like a mother who abandoned her baby after birth to fend for itself...lol I still look forward to ur first comment...lol
There are other series as well u discontinued just like that. E.g Biography. The firts post on warren buffet was really tot-provoking. 
PLEASE always try to keep your promise in this regard though i now know how hectic it could be with my little experience as a baby blogger.
In terms of content, they are very inspirational, practical and down to earth. some of which were very prophetic in thier timing. some of your expositions on the scriptures are simply mind-blowing. 
The business opportunities are second to none. So sad am yet to avail myself of any of them.
There is something u were not doing last year which i think u are now doing. Before now u don&#039;t respond to comments (including criticisms). Adeolu is a master at this and most times i learn from his response more than the post because they deal with some real life issues and questions.
In terms of aesthetic and lay out, more stil has to be done.
the characters are monotonous and hard and the colour, dull.
will it be possible to lay out the comments such that they appear in thier proper sequence of posting? i.e first comments first so that   when one responds to a comment or updates a previous comment, visitors can easily follow the sequence. it makes for proper reading and follow-up. hope u got me on that?
Dont&#039; rest on your oars and the sky will be your spring board.

P.S. When i read a line in a recent post that you need to pick up your range rover sport this year, i shouted! God indeed has been very faithful.

@ Emmy!
Whats up? I feel you brother! Guess u are now serving.

Luv u all!</description>

		<description>Wow! great comments guys.

The way the comments are going, I am tempted to increase the present to two; well let&#039;s see.

I forgot to talk about the Oil Deal: The Northern Sink; we were able to get 5 interested investors ready to drop 2 million Naira each but the Oil company sourced their funds from elsewhere so the deal did not take place. Can&#039;t win them all.
 
Thank you once more............</description>

		<description>Brother Dipo, I would say Nospecto issue brought me to your Blog but I noticed that after every visit to your site i always see a new business opportunity, like the Business opportunity in Vietnam, the inverter, the Bullion gold business and so many more.

I know within me that we are gonna sit down someday , talk about business and possibly do a lot of businesses together. Just keep on going on with what you are doing and I see you become Pat Utomi in the next 2 to 3 years.

You are blessed.

great blog i must say.learnt a whole lot here.very thought provoking.your ability to do a whole lot of  stuff and still pull though just fine is amazing.the content is great.the layout isnt so colorful like the other blogs i see.it is easy to navigate but drab in terms of colour.for info such as seminars and stuff,i think you should post that say 2 weeks before time so that someone like me can prepare for it financially though i know your system of taking just a few number of people is good as that reduces logistics problem for you.i&#039;m sure i&#039;m speaking for quite a number of people who would love to attend such but the info came just too soon.
and bring on the relationship,i&#039;m kinda interested!
its quarter for you i must say is GREAT!for me,it was just about laying up the stones coz this next quarter,i&#039;m about to step on them and take a leap into......another level of glory!
thanks.</description>

		<description>..not even the titanic is priced enough to measure the pool of wisdom transcended on my &#039;used to be ignorant entrepreneurial self&#039;(That&#039;s if it never sunk, anyway!)-You make light so abundant even when it appeared dark and swarthy ; The mechanics of your write-ups are straight and easy to understand, that i only need read once to swallow hook ,line, fisherman and boat&#039;- I&#039;m usually persuaded by the strategies in which you carry your readers along, most of your business tactics are usually as easy as seen from on-screen...

		<description>I must say that truly,...&#039;He that is an expert in his craft will not dine with mere men, but shall talk over lunch, rub shoulders with Kings of this world&#039;...

Keep up the good work inspired by the Master.

Have a fruitful and rewarding second quarter.

		<description>Hello,

This blog has inspired me in more ways than i can mention. I am able to offer advice to others gained from wisdom gotten here many times. I thank God for your life.
My only challenge has been the fact that i have not gotten a response to my complaint about my electromate and this makes me unhappy.</description>

		<description>dipotepede and deoluakinyemi sites are the two sites I visit everyday just to read articles.

 Your articles on this site have made great impact on my life especially that one on your marriage testimony. It came at the right time for me bcos I was preparing for my wedding then (I&#039;m now married). It strenghened me and really gave me hope that I can go ahead with it.
Your article on Tithe also helped me bcos I was not faithful in my tithing then. your articles positively affect people more than what you can think about.

You are doing great my brother eventhough you can do better and please dont relent in your effort.

Thanks</description>

		<description>Dipo -Thanks for your effort in bringing the enterpreneurship drive in individuals.  A review ofthe first quarter of 2009 has really been eventful.  I wish you the best in your endeavour to transform our lives and better our best.
All - Fromt he book &#039;An Enemy Called Average&#039; by John Maaon, I quote &quot;Start with what you have, not with what you don&#039;t have.  Opportunity is always where you are, never where you were.  To get anywhere you must launch out for somewhere, or you will get nowhere.  The question for each man to settle is not what he would do if he had the means, time, influence, and education advantages,but what he will do with the things he has.  God will always give us an ability to create what we need from something that is already here&quot;.   One good thing about God&#039;s gifts and calling is that they are permanent and enduring.  Romans 11.29 says &quot;The gifts and calling of God are without repentance&quot;.  Never underestimate the power of the gifts that are within you.  Gifts and talents are given to us not only so that we can fulfil to the fullest the call in our own lives, but also so that we can reach the souls who are attached to those gifts.</description>

In my opinon you are doing great with this medium of communication and i say it is fantasic, your uniqueness is unmatchable and i bless God for this wisdom. may GodBless you and enrich you to do more

thank you</description>
