EDITOR'S LETTER

DESTINATION FINANCIAL FREEDOM

My prayer for you is that once you get to your destination you discover it is only a 60% pitstop and you continue to excel beyond your wildest dreams.

Nomad. One of the most intriguing and inspiring words to come to life in recent years. The word, single-handedly denotes freedom, creativity, exploration and an ultimate sense of one who take control of her destiny, one who is demands more from life and one who is simple unstoppable, unphased, undeterred. My friends, meet the nomad.

Born of millenials who want more from life, the idea of generating independent income streams is increasingly becoming more than just an idea to many people all over the world, making it possible to work and see the world. What is better than the idea of lounging by the coast and taking your day job with you. Yes, people are really doing this, the question is - why aren’t you?

Hello everyone and welcome to this Christmas edition of DAME Africa magazine. Is it me or did 2018 disappear like a hot gooey, chewy chocolate cookie? Well, I hope you have all had an amazing year and are ready to seize every moment of 2019!

If you dream of taking control of your future, your time and your money, I’ve sprinkled a few key principles you should inject into your consciousness as you step into 2019:

1. Develop an appreciation of your time as the most valuable commodity you have the ability to leverage.

2. Self-evaluate regularly based on patterns that have stood the test of time.

3. Get comfortable with being uncomfortable.

4. Network - leverage the people around you and allow them to leverage you.

5. Know your destination and start the journey where you are.

Love Adaora.
