There is one particular dilemma that keeps haunting me «finding a balance between the «ideal» and the «reality». The ideal appears «unattainable» while the reality is a «no-go area». If by any chance, we experience the «ideal» in our minds and face the «reality», there is a confliction and consequently a constraint that hinders most people from moving forward.

For the past week, I have been getting calls and emails from guys who want more out of life rather than the 8-6, Mon-Fri, work cycle; I could detect frustration and hopelessness in their voice viz-a-viz the emails.

The above picture is a snap shot of the «Ice 4 Days» Seminar that held on Saturday, 10^th of April and my first statement during the presentation may have led me to this article; My name is Dipo Tepede; I am a regular guy like all of you and I appreciate your taking your time and money to honor this meeting.

Handling rejection is not easy infact I dare say it is the true path to generating lasting wealth. It’s not really good news that after just announcing that a thousand staffs were laid off from Bank PHB, a new 1200 staffs would be laid off by Intercontinental Bank. These executives have been rejected by the companies they trust so much to shield them economically, socially and politically. I have been receiving mails from some bank executives through this site and I could feel the spirit behind their words; it’s truly heart shattering but musing and meditating over an already bad event is not going to make the event any better than it already is. This is why I am going to tell you the truth (from my perspective) about rejection.
