The country is mentioned in a positive way in a book about Mazes and Labyrinths. “Mazes around the world” is written by Mary D. Lankford (illustrations: Karen Dugan) and designated for educational purposes.
The publisher is HarperCollins in the USA

The author is from Austin, Texas and our first contact dates back a few years. Two of the thirtytwo pages are dedicated to the Klaas Voogds Maze of Soekershof in Robertson, Western Cape, South Africa where at the moment strange things are happening such as the creation of extraordinary objects as wire trees and a ‘cruise missile’.

Mary D. Lankford is also engaged in a future publication about umbrellas. And guess what: The Soekershof Umbrellas will be in it.

No ‘copycat stuff’ but original design as is everything we try to initiate.

I am really glad about this initiative... I think it is much needed. Our organisation is very active in social networks and we invited you to join me on http://twitter.com/virtualafrica to follow the work we do in virtual worlds, specifically Second Life. Lets talk business if you want a presence in a 3D format for a very reasonable price - a donation to our NGO for work we do in communities in Africa!

I have to keep this short, as most of my blog postings and energy go into my Music and Enterainment booking agencies blog, but what better to start off my relationship with AfroPreneur than to wish it all the luck for the future, with the hope that this continent will shrink closer together.

The sharing of idea's and resources, the pooling of talent, and gathering of passion is what is required to get Africa to the forefront of the world's mind. This is the African century, and it's only us, us African's, who can make it happen for ourselves!

It is Africa's turn to shine!

New on the scene is LPC Global sporting there new package of wireless cell phone and communication products, currently to be marketed via network marketing.

Over the next few months to a year, we can expect to see a number of companies jumping on the bandwagon to offer wireless cell phone users the opportunity to earn a percentage of the over 11 billion dollars per month in subscriber fees that are currently being pocketed by service providers.

These opportunities will surely cause a quandary to those that are unfamiliar with the world of network marketing and how to set themselves up to earn a substantial income. Although this explosion in the wireless industry is sure to make alot of seasoned mlmer's and network marketers millionaires, it will also cause the average person, just looking to get good service and inexpensive wireless cell phone provisions alot of confusion in trying to determine what service is best for them.

Do you have a cell phone??? Do you know anyone that has a cell phone??? I am sure that most of us, have and use our cell phones on a daily basis and we are paying monthly subscription fees, just as we pay our utility bills. So, the questions for average users are who will provide me with the best plan, while still providing a quality service? Who will allow me to have unlimited calling features? Who will provide me with economical international calls and FREE Text messaging? How about, incentives for paying my bill on-time, free gifts or even top of the line phones as an incentive to loyal customers. As a subscriber it's time to tell the providers what you need.

Currently, I have had the opportunity to look at two different companies, and in an attempt to not bend one way or the other, I would like to say that in carefully researching this newest wireless company, LPC Global it is clear to see that time will provide the best plans to the average person looking for the best services and I expect that there will soon be other companies joining this new marketing stream.

This is because we believe that these are essential steps to a entrepreneur's journey. They have been explained below:

Dream

It can be argued that this is the first step to any entrepreneurs journey, it aligns with vision and imagination. Dreaming BIG, is the right way to do it. This is a very important step as it also helps to determine which direction you want to go, creating a basis for a formulation of a plan. As the Cheshire cat said to Alice who was lost in a wonderland fantasy, it does not matter which road you take if you do not know where you are going.

You have to realise that all who have accumulated great fortunes, did a certain amount of dreaming, hoping, wishing, desiring and planning before realising. Remember that patience, tolerance and an open mind essential for the entrepreneur of today.

Network

Regardless of what type of business you are building , a strong network will be one of your most valuable assets. As the founder of Def Jam, Russell Simmons put it, 'your network is your networth.'

Realise

The hope, faith, hard work and determination in getting to this point is what drives an entrepreneur. I for one believe that it is not about the ending, rather it is about the journey!

Remember there is no such possibility as something for nothing. If your plan failed, replace it with another one. Failure is not permanent, it is temporary! Temporary defeat just means something is wrong with your plan.

Here are 15 tips:

1. Never respond when you are not calm. If you are not sure that you are calm, don’t respond. Take time to calm yourself down first.

2. Take a deep breath as a first step to calm yourself down.

3. Speak in gentle tone to reduce the tension of the situation.

4. Realize that you can find opportunities in negative situations. Albert Einstein said: “In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity.”

5. Look at the content of what people say to you for something positive that you can act upon to improve yourself. Don’t just reject the whole messages.

6. For the rest of the messages which is negative, simply ignore it.

7. Maintain positive view of the people. Maybe you don’t like their messages or behavior, but that doesn’t mean that you can hate them personally.

8. Realize that having negative feelings will just hurt you, not them. So there is no reason for you to have any negative feeling.

9. If you make mistakes, be open to admit it.

10. If you make mistakes, remember this quote by George Bernard Shaw: “A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.”

11. If you can, listen to motivational audio program to feed positive thoughts into your mind.

12. Talk to a positive friend who can encourage you.

13. Remember your favorite quotes to give you inspiration and motivation. This is one reason why you should have quote of the day.

14. Look at the negative situations as your training sessions for real life. The higher you climb in life, the worse the negative situations would be, so you’d better be prepared for them.

15. Realize that you can’t please everyone. In fact, nobody can. Sometimes you need to just let some people go. Realizing this will relieve you from a lot of unnecessary burden so that you can focus on the people that you can positively interact with.
