2018 comrade marathon has been concluded. This is the world ultimate race where athletes run from Pietermaritzburg down to Durban trying to challenge the biggest obstacle of 90 km. 21 thousands and above have participated to this ‘ultimate human race’ that include international runners such as Marco Mambo from Zimbabbwe and Alexendra Morozan from Russia. This is the one race that proves human endurance and perhaps their fitness also.
From men top ten, almost all those who made it are blacks more specifically from South Africa. Whites had only one representation of the British Teven Way who took position three. Zimbabwe also had been represented by Marko Mambo and Teboho Sello from Lesotho. The above reflects that the men’s top ten was dominated by black South African.
However it did not seem to the case in the women top ten. White women flooded the women side having no single black representative in it. From my experience based on the live coverage of the event on television black women were mostly seen on the road side cheering those challenging the biggest obstacle of 90 km for big cash and some medals.
The above say much about South Africa black women in terms of their willingness to participate in sports. Many questions would be asked about their level of fitness that seems to be detriment towards black community. It is very much rare to find blacks (women) down the road doing exercise and 2018 comrade marathon came with a true verdict about the issue of black women not evolving themselves upon something that would keep them fit.
Failure to have blacks in the women top ten also reflect or might lead us to the fact that black women in South Africa have a major problem when it comes to maintaining their balance diet which is one of the fundamentals for such races. The superstation that sports is for man has died long time ago and we need to have black representation all side.
This however requires much dedication and a lot of motivation. Black women, is time to motivate one another to be part of this world by living a healthy life through sports. An active life style would prevent the issue of obesity, diabetic that takes advantage of people like those. Come 2019 we should see at least 4 blacks in the women top ten. Tomorrow starts today.

My Ronaldo, Our Ronaldo!
My Ronaldo, our Ronaldo. A player that many dismiss to be the greatest. At an early age of 18 he became the most expensive teenager in English History with a whopping 12.24 million pound. A player whose work ethic can only be compared to the inhuman. Ronaldo, our Ronaldo. Ronaldo, the animal who’s criticised for being too ambitious.
•
A kind of genius who’s accused of being arrogant of which he himself has distanced that as being untruth. A player above all whose animal athleticism can only be compared to that of an Africa python if not a pit-bull that when it grabs it never let go. The only player who from being a player became his national team coach when he inspire his nation to conquer the whole of Europe when Portugal humbled the home side France on the finals of Euro16 and for the first time Portugal were crown the champ.
•
His success has infiltrated everyone’s blood stream. His firth Ballon d’or to equal his rival Lionel Messi , four UEFA champions league, and the rest. His goals of thunder that comes as ‘Maria’ has also grab the despiser’s conscious. They stood on their two femurs however when their conscious are regained and notice it was ‘The animal’, Ronaldo who unbelievable scored that acrobatic bicycle kick against Juventus they simply folded like Pangolin.
•
His penalty taking ability has given him a name, ‘Penaldo’ of which they themselves haters can explain its meaning but in all sense is called taking responsibility but we don’t have the same eye on that. His right foot is installed with accuracy devise that when he approaches free kicks the opponent shiver. His dribbling acrobats suffers the opponents with dizziness.
•
His automated speed is compared to that one of a Silver VW Golf GTI (dsg). At the age of 33, his flexibility on the ball proves him to be the most feared and lethal player under the blue just like African militant group ‘Boko Haram. My Ronaldo, Our Ronaldo! Though critics on him continue to flood the net, his deeds have already booked him a space in football Hall of Fame.

'Winning is a conscious decision'.
One thing that many of us do not know is that winning is a conscious decision that needs to be taken before the initial challenge. In other words, one becomes a winner or a loser before facing his or her rivalry in person.
A nice literary piece of an example is that one of a football team. Most of the times these teams that are often refer to as ‘small team’ leave our jaws open of surprise after humbling the so called ‘big team’. Let’s look at head to head between Kaizer Chiefs and Baroka fc.
These two played five up to today of which out of those Chiefs won 2 and Baroka won 1 and they draw 2. Remember that Baroka has just been promoted to SA topflight league not long and one would have with no hesitation expected chiefs to have won all of those but it did not happen.
Liverpool has just humbled Manchester City in the UEFA Champions league and you wonder why? The thing is, it does not matter how and what the obstacle that seem to be blocking your way looks like. The only thing that matters the most is if whether you need to overcome it or not.
Make a conscious decision that you are going to make it. Winners decide on their fate before unlike loser who says whatever the outcome all is well. Motivate yourself, believe in you, trust your instinct, and never underrate you power and effort that they are not enough. I often hear people saying that ‘you will never be tasted with something beyond your power’.
Go out there and make yourself proud.

'Greed was the main illness affecting #South_Africa'.
1%TAX HIKE MEANS #SPENDING_MORE.
'Greed was the main illness affecting #South_Africa', #Pravin_Gordhan.
As we are about to face a tough #economic situation in South Africa as a result of a #Tax hike from 14% to 15% announced by the #Treasury, People in government have continue to show no respect to '#Public_Fund' and show greediness.
#Ace_Magashule, former #Free_State Premier and the current ANC secretary general has found himself at a cross road after allegations of #20_million farewell party for him.
•
At a time where the country needs fully cooperation, #eradicating corruption and addresses the issue of unnecessary spending by the Government that has been a major set back for almost a decade, one wouldn't have speculated such hefty 20 million party for a government official.
•
What does this say about the poor and the privileged? does this mean We who did not have privilege to enter a political environment should remain poor and poor and those that have obtained the position continue to wrongful spend of 'public fund'?. There is no doubt that the the hike of 1% in Tax continue to impose stress to the working class and create class in our country.
•
It also mean that ordinary South African will have to raise state revenue after 2018 shortfall of about R50 billion due to corruption,maladminisration, self enrichment, nepotism previous presidency was.
•
It just show how 1% to those in Government is nothing, but to the poor is a lot. it means spending more that usual. it seemed a joke to me when the Treasury announced VAT increase. however I started to realize how real it is after Vodacom (cellphone network provider) has sent me a massage that call rate will increase to about R3 per min ( peak) time.
•
It's now few hours before the initial #VAT increase start day which is 1st of April 18.
IT'S EITHER YOU #SPEND_MORE_LOSINGMORE OR #SAVE_MORE_SAVING_YOU_HARDLY_EARNED_CASH.

Aren't you grooming your assassin?
GO_KILL_YOURSELF_I_WILL_GET_ANOTHER_PARTNER '
# Your_Gifts_Should_Have_Positive_Meaning
Aren’t you grooming your assassin? Well you probably are. Isn’t lovely and
charmming that your friends and families are considering giving you gifts
this festive season? Of course it is who doesn’t want to be gifted anyway!
Such acknowledgement makes us feel very SPECIAL and that there are
people who care much about you. It teaches us to be generous and always
care of our loved ones, friends and families, right? Yah.
•
But here comes a problem. The person you used to gift him or her is
probably your assassin. Is probably the person who’ll stand and block your
way and demand the watch you wearing that cost you a lot of money. The
only reaction you’ll screen though is OMG, that was my son, laughs…………
after that you go around telling people how surprised you were when you
realised it was your son. The only thing you wouldn’t attempt to divulge is
that you are the groomer ‘cause you don’t even know you are.
•
What I am saying is, when you consider buying something for someone
closer to you bare in your thoughts that it could have negative or positive
impact on the decoder. It shapes him otherwise, right? Yah. Let me give
you an example. When you buy your Boyfriend/ husband a fast car,
unintended implications could be, go kill yourself l’ll get another partner
(laughs, after laughs)? Well I prefer comfortability not speedy.
•
Parents incline to buy toy guns mostly to their son and you ask yourself
why. Are there no other better toys instead? You don’t wish him to be a
killer. Well if is a police officer then it’s ok we need people who will
defend our constitution. Daughters are said to like dolls but I guess you
don’t want her to be a ‘super nanny’.
•
There are absolutely many things better you could try for your loved ones
and never regret it. Promote creativity and keep your partner motivated by
buying him or her books. Keeping them reading will enhance their social
skills. Consider getting your girlfriend something nice like flowers because
you want her to look beautiful and probably look and smell good most
importantly it will remind her how much you love her. Buy you sons and
daughters something that will help them be more creative, like pencils,
colours. Let them use them around playing with them drawing somethings.
•
Just don’t take you partner to restaurant ‘cause you know she like chips
and full chicken. You don’t wish her to be obese, laughs! Buying a pillow
is no better, he will sleep till you set fire on it
•
I wish to appeal to you all to be very mindful of what you wish to offer to
your loved ones. Let it not be something that will have negative impact on
the recipient. Build you partner to be the greatest. Not only you will be
proud of her but she will also be proud of.
THANK YOU

'Putting You fortune through an investment is called an Earned Penny'.
Good day, depending on the time zone you are at. I am glad that you are reading this piece and I hope it will be meaningful to you. I also believe that it will inspire and motivate to help you achieve all you have been dreaming for in life.
Each and every sunrise when I wake up, all I see are flooded streets with different people going up and down. Thousands of cars are passing down the street while commuters are rushing to catch public transport. School kids are waked early to get ready for school. This is the struggle that most of us go through every day and you ask yourself why? Well there are two possible destinations. Both of them are either rushing to work or to school. With or without thunderstorm is no different, Nothing could block them.
There is only one common goal that is pushing millions of people to risk their lives day after day. Success, success, success. Everyone is chasing It like a lion risking its life in an attempt to catch a pray for possible feed. Every one envisage and ponder about it. Young, old, male, female, blacks, whites, every one. Apparently success does not just fall from nowhere upon individual which many believe it does, it has to be worked upon to became actual and certain action must be taken. There are lots of factors that actually differentiate those who will see success and those that that will not.
‘Spend Less Save More’.
Now it’s about that time of the year where insolvency takes its place. We have been blinded psychologically that holidays are meant for spending by those who studied economics. So that we could spend to keep money circulating and it has enslaved us. All we do is just spending until there is no penny available in our pockets, why? Because we are not economically educated, we don’t economise and that separates successful people and those that are not.
If I may challenge you, when did you last read or watch a business report to have an idea how the markets are behaving? Many of us don’t even care or have a clue about the exchange rate. Not all of us know how the RAND is performing against other currency such as dollar, Euro, pound etc. Many people don’t have time for this ‘cause they don’t see it fundamental though it is. Such thing will help you to know when is the right time to spend your money and help avoid unnecessary spending. Spending will never reform but will enslave you. So free yourself by ‘spend less and save more’.
'Colleges are overflowing the country'.
‘Education is the key to successes’. Without education, a society is doomed. Education is the most crucial part of this world and successful people have used it to pave their roads that directed them to the position they wanted before. Our contemporary generation is blessed leaving post-apartheid where resources for learning are galore.
South Africa in terms of education is one of the rich compare to other Africa country and we should take advantage of it. University are flooding the country from University of Venda to University of Limpopo in Limpopo, to University of Johannesburg to WITS to University of Pretoria in Gauteng, to University of Cape Town, just to mention the few.
Colleges are overflowing the country. Education has become more accessible than ever. Though I am not subscriber to the so called ‘free education’, South Africa is making an attempt to have everyone have access to education, why? Because only education can make this place ‘Great gain’. Education will help you pave the road for to success.
‘Has Been Their Biggest Curse’.
There is no use of driving a fancy car while you blood is living under a shack. The reason why many people don’t become successful is they never take responsibility. Exuberance of us today doesn’t know how significant our fancy life has cost us. We spend thousands of cash on car petrol and many other spending instead of improving our lives with something more valuable than that. By the way a car is an expense but putting your fortune through an investment is called ‘an earned penny’. The only language that successful people speaks every day is investment, investment and saving.
And again Many people more specifically men, are living separated with their sons and daughter and they don’t even care if whether their offspring are provided for or not. All they do is to continue living their selfish life until and this has been their biggest curse. Our generation lacks responsibility and this human deficiency has downgraded us significantly. Let’s us learn to be responsible to avoid the curse.
Let us live not survive. Our life should have a clear meaning and purpose.
Thank you for reading this Hoping that it will help you achieve more and more.
