TLF encourages entrepreneurship

Even with our call for us to pray and contribute towards our cause for this month, we want to thank those who responded. We also want to tell political leaders and indeed the government to encourage the works of indigenous companies and manufacturers, there are a whole lot of talented and gifted individuals who are very enterprising and need our patronage not our pity.  This is the former Governor of Benue state and a physically challenged man who makes shoes.  This is a Governor of Lagos state and a phone repairer and bike vulcanizer.  This is the former Governor of Anambra state and an artist. Who remembers these scenario?  Share with us others please... Remember everything is not politics! #June #Ventures  TLF💚

“God Provides” By  Julie Ackerman Link Those who work their land will have abundant food. Proverbs 12:11 Outside my office window, the squirrels are in a race against winter to bury their acorns in a safe, accessible place. Their commotion amuses me. An entire herd of deer can go through our back yard and not make a sound, but one squirrel sounds like an invasion. The two creatures are different in another way as well. Deer do not prepare for winter. When the snow comes they eat whatever they can find along the way (including ornamental shrubs in our yard). But squirrels would starve if they followed that example. They would be unable to find suitable food. The deer and the squirrel represent ways that God cares for us. He enables us to work and save for the future, and He meets our need when resources are scarce. As the wisdom literature teaches, God gives us seasons of plenty so that we can prepare for seasons of need (Prov. 12:11). And as Psalm 23 says, the Lord leads us through...

EXTREME SAVERS You can put away a lot more than the average American without living a deprived life.  #Avoid Debt!  Since they married two decades ago, Ed Haskell and Debbie Chasteen have saved more than half their income every year. But Ed's aggressive savings habits go back even further. From his early 20s, Ed was determined to live frugally so that he didn't have to work into his 60s. When the couple was dating, Debbie realized how serious Ed was about saving when she needed a new car but didn't have the cash. Rather than have her borrow, Ed offered to put up the money so she could continue maxing out her retirement plan. That avoidance of debt has been a key to their success. Before they make any purchase, even big-ticket items like cars, they save up the cash. In 1996 they paid cash for their first home, a $105,000. "Sure, we could afford a bigger house and more expensive cars, but we're content with the things we have," says Ed, who retired 10 years ago ...

Job Interviews

JOB INTERVIEWS Job interviews are short, crisp, and very important parts of your career. A good interview can make your career and a bad interview can either offer you progress at best and seriously hamper your progress at worst. Therefore, it is very important to be completely ready, and know what to say when you attend an interview. In addition, whatever the post may be, or whatever the job position may be, you should clearly know what not to say in an interview. 1. What to Say in a Job Interview. The art of listening  One of the first skills of a conversation, let alone an interview, is the art of listening. There is a major difference between hearing and listening. We hear music, an action in which we may miss some lyrics or some part of the music, but we hear what is important to us and what we should pay attention to. During an interview, one should remind oneself to hear, understand and keep in mind what the interviewer is saying. 2. When to speak  Also, during an inter...
