- Introduction
- Today I want to talk about failure
- Have you ever failed in your life?
- Has situations and people ever called or labelled you a failure?
- Did you fail some, most or all your goals in 2010?
- Then if so, I want to talk to you.
- I have had many failures in my life
- I have had situations that have called me failure
- I have tried and failed in many instances, in ministry, in business, etc
- I have been engaged in many business deals and lost.
- I remember there was a year when selling "amacimbi" was fetching a lot of money, by then, there were Zambian people that would buy in bulk in good moneys. I took the little cash I had, went to my rural home and bought some bags of "amacimbi" but when I came back, the prices were no depressed and I could not sell to the Zambians. At that time, I heard in Harare the prices were still favourable, I sent the bags by NRZ to Harare to somebody I knew, but I lost, I never even got the money!
- 2009/10, I got into a farming project, I rented a plot, when I got in, I was paying USD300 – USD500 a month, I invested about USD4000 last year but I lost all of it including the salaries that I was paying for the workers there.
- In 2010, among other things, I had about five items I wanted to achieve or work on:
- I managed to get meaning progress towards it
- I failed
- I failed
- I failed
- I failed
In my five goals above, I got one out of five which is 20%, fail, ungraded or U, in academic terms, so, I may be looked at as a failure! (dramatize this by wearing tags of the results, pass, fail, 20%, etc and preach with them)
