TALK! TALK! TALK!

TALK TALK TALK

Talk, talk, talk.
Everyone talks. They talk incessantly. They chat, analyse, pontificate. They debate and discuss. They love to hear the sound of their own voices.
People gather in seminars, workshops, conferences, off-sites. They yap for days. Then they gather the results of all that was declaimed and bloviated in elaborate reports, complete with detailed appendices.
Leaders make grand speeches. They are full of highfaluting words and noble utterances. Their intentions are grand. Their promises are expansive. Their vows are remarkable. They will transform society, they say. They will deliver development and remove poverty.
People gather in assemblies for all sorts of reasons: to work, to pray, to mark, to record. But those are just the purported reasons. The real reason is to meet up and talk. Chat, shoot the breeze, catch up, chew the fat together.
Now, talk has gone digital. With handy messaging and social media apps in so many pockets around the planet, people prattle and yammer 24/7. There are no limits. The ability to chat with anyone anywhere is free and widespread.
What’s the end result of all this talk? In most cases, nothing. People talk until they are tired, and then they sleep. After that…nothing. Nada. Nil. No result. Nothing changes, nothing improves.
Don’t get me wrong. Talk is part of being human. We are social creatures, wired to interact and learn through exchange. It’s a natural condition.
And yet. If we put a fraction of the energy we expend in talking into actually doing things we would be in a different place. Talking about things we need to do seems to come naturally; doing them, less so.
I have never been a strategy advisor  but here’s what I tell my clients: it’s not real until it happens. Most strategies are just designs and intentions, not results and impacts. But talk is not worth anything; achievements are. The true strategist does not just come up with the beautiful plan; the true strategist puts the plan to work. In the real world. Where it can make things better, or bigger, or more useful.
As I get older, I am hugely impatient with leaders who just make speeches, conferences that just record utterances, gatherings that just exchange views. Yes, we all have opinions. Yes, we can all recount telling anecdotes. But it’s all hot air, if it never leads to anything tangible, anything different, anything impactful.
Most people just talk about doing; a precious few do the doing. True, rushing to action without giving sufficient thought to the problem is unwise. And yet, the true achiever is as much doer as thinker, as much preoccupied with execution as with design.
So don’t have a strategic plan that isn’t attached to an execution plan; don’t engage in endless debates that go round in circles. Link your words to actions, your thoughts to deeds.
Making a great speech is not leadership. Turning it into true change and progress, is. A speech is not a result. It’s the beginning of a result. Don’t clap too hard for good speeches. They’re just words. Clap for outcomes. The best leaders are not found on podiums and on the conference circuit; they’re the ones who use words for impact, as a beginning.
A speech is mere words. FOLLOW THE PRACTITIONERS

Shemeji Melayeki:TEACHING THE POWER OF READING BOOKS AT MLIMWA SECONDARY SCHOOL, Dodoma-Tanzania




Books have been the greatest source of knowledge. It is still used in schools and in all learning institutions. Francis Bacon has ever said “knowledge is power”. There is a sure power in knowledge. All great men and women are good readers. All great leaders are desperate readers. If you want to be a leader in any career in your life, you don’t have to escape knowledge.   The wonderful thing about books is this; its knowledge is ordered. Authors don't rush and write books. They take obsessive focus on what they want people to read.


 SHEMEJI MELAYEKI PRESENTING THE POWER OF READING BOOKS



THE WHOLE SCHOOL SEATED AT ONE PLACE TO LISTEN THE MOTIVATIONAL MESSENGER AT WORK




Don’t take books for granted. Reading is the habit like any other habit. You replace habit by habit. Habit of not reading books is  replaced by habit of reading books so cultivate the habit of reading books daily.

SPEAKER SHEMEJI MELAYEKI ON THE MOVE..............

Knowledge sharpen your skills!


 ANSWERING QUESTIONS AND SHOWING THEM HOW,,,


Hidden things and revelations have been printed in books!



Leaders are readers. You can’t lead if you don’t read!


“Every man who knows how to read has power to magnify himself, to multiply the ways in which he exists, to make his life full, significant and interesting” Aldous Huxley

“When books are opened we discover that we have wings”
--Helen Hayes
