In this world where the love of money supercedes all
The thirst for actualisation gives African pride a fall
Yet it’s not how much you have that makes you rich
It is your mind that grabs wealth to your reach
The most valuable wealth of a person is the mind
Thus it is the most useful resource to humankind
Regardless of location, race, and gender everyone is born wealthy
Provided he has a mind, one that makes him healthy
Everyone exorbitant power to utilise
Everyone has his mind to use as a profit bearing resource
Material wealth is void without rich mindsets – wealth in disguise
Yet rich mindsets bring forth transmissions, happiness and rejoice
The wealth of nation, inventions, ideologies are out of compromise
They all emanated from rich thinking Nut shelling all discoveries and wealth is one resource of essence
It’s the result of the known poor people making rich decisions. Reassuring why human wealth lies not in one’s belongings
Human wealth is always the outcome of the intellectually wise
Wealth of all nations is the conversion of ideas into resources
While sometimes it is by grabbing ideas from given set of resources
Mutually it’s within the brains that ambitious men devise
It is the force of mentality that realigns men’s competence
Human wisdom is non-volatile, cannot be lost in a rinse
But material wealth can be lost in a blink
Problems are never solved by milk and honey
Yet it’s the mindset that retains all the glory
When disputes arise wealth can seldom solve
But it’s a mind that knows it’s sorry.
