Laptop Donations - Thanks!
In the last newsletter I made an appeal for laptops for Anik to use in
translating our website for the creation of the French division and to take
home with him to Morocco to use in creating French/Arabic section. I'm
pleased to announce that we have had two laptops donated, thanks to two of
our students: Nahla Rifai, of Jordan and Julian Murphy of the UK. Nahla
i
s
currently living is Switzerland and working with the United Nations. Julian
is living in Bangkok, Thailand and is working in internet technology. It
was especially gratifying that IIGL students made these donations. Thanks
to both of you, the IIGL work is now able to expand into new areas.
Affiliate Institutes
We are moving forward steadily with the development of the French and
Spanish divisions. We have found all of the Level One books in French and
Spanish. Roger, in Côte d'Ivoire, reports that he has about ten French
speaking students who are ready to enroll once we have all of our systems
i
n
place. Elisabeth, in Venezuela, already has the first Spanish speaking
student enrolled while she is working on the website translation. Our
goa
l
is to have everything in place and ready to formally open these two new
divisions by the first of the year. Budget? Nope, no money for these
yet. But it will come. Don't know when or from where, but we are all
about learning to manifest. Your interdimensional assistance in helping
u
s
to hold the energy for this would be most appreciated.
Curriculum Development
Thanks to the initiative of one of our board members, Roshan Billimoria
fro
m
Sedona, Arizona, USA, we have a new Curriculum Development Team which is
working to formulate and refine the IIGL curriculum for the advanced levels
of study. The team is composed of board members, students and
contributor
s
who represent diverse professional, linguistic, ethnic & international
backgrounds. In October, active students will be receiving an email from
the team, requesting your input in helping to shape the IIGL curriculum.
Website Update
We are currently in the process of updating our website. Now you can see
photos from our Advisory Council meeting in June by clicking here:
http://www.global-leadership.com/advisory/index.htm We have also posted the
complete written assignments for Level Three studies. To review these,

Become A Partner In Changing Lives
Do you remember a time in your life when something you read in one
particular book opened a whole new world to you, became a turning point,
an
d
your life was never the same after that? Books are like that. They are
ou
r
window to a larger world than the family, village, nation, religion &
culture we grew up in. Books, and the new ideas they often bring, have
always been a threat to religious, political and cultural demigods who want
to control people's minds. They can be dangerous things by spawning freedom
of thought and inquiry. They can be threatening to all kinds of status quo
by offering readers a window to a much larger reality.
Below is something I just received from Mark Mazadu, one of our Nigerian
students. He has completed his first two levels of study. His first
assignment for Level Three was to write about the impact the IIGL studies
have had on him and his life. This will give you just a glimpse of what
the Institute is doing.
More than ever, the world needs personally empowered, consciously aware,
high-integrity and heart-centered leaders. This is our sole mission, and
yo
u
can be a part of that mission. $20 will cover the cost of purchasing and
shipping one book half way around the world, but we welcome contributions
o
f
any amount. And if you can't contribute financially, then we invite you
t
o
help us hold the vision, dream and goal of this work being fully supported
at all levels and moving forward successfully.
If you wish to contribute, checks on US banks can be made payable to the
International Institute For Global Leadership and mailed to the address
below. For credit card donations & bank transfers, just email me and I
will send details.

From Mark Elisha Mazadu (Nigeria)
donmax02@yahoo.com
When I first saw my task for level three, even without reading it, I knew
i
t
would be more rewarding, interesting and will require more time and
positiv
e
thinking. I felt so because I guess it connects you to things you've read,
both the ones you can remember and those you can't.
Having gone through levels one and two, known to each and every student of
IIGL as the personal empowerment levels, I must say that was the most
important and valuable moments of my life, when I read through and
understanding my task the need to write on things I've learnt the first
thing I told myself, was where will you start from? Because I've learnt a
lot that writing all I've learnt will result to writing the story of my
lif
e
which I guess will include both the past and the present.
However at this point I would like to say I'll try as much as I can to
limi
t
my gains into key major lessons I've learnt that will forever remain fresh
in my mind.
First I learnt how to catch a dream. I never knew much before becoming a
student of IIGL about goal setting or an act of catching a dream. Then I
thought all you need do with your life is following what just comes your
wa
y
either good or bad.
My greatest joy today is getting to realize that dreams defines the limit
o
f
a mans destiny and knowing things a man needs do or rather I need do as an
individual to accomplish my dream in life. Working that knowledge I grew
into knowing that without actually looking up to a particular thing in
life
,
there is limit to how far I could go. When we look at things critically, I
must say i's common in Africa most especially among Nigerians and among
youths that whoever is successful is being attributed to have been born
wit
h
a sliver spoon. Insted of setting real goals and ways we'll achieve such
goals. Youths rather think well it's not my luck besides I'm not born
wit
h
a silver spoon. At this point I'll say this is the genesis of the problem
most African youths have that result into abject poverty for most people
du
e
to unrealistic means of setting goals and ways of achieving them, for
unles
s
we learn to set our own goals things will never work as it ought to.
Number two principle I've learnt is the power of purpose. Benjamin Disraeli
will always say 'the secret of success is continuality through purpose'.
An
d
one constant thing I've noticed among successful people is that they all
ar
e
men of great purpose. They all had a purpose in life. They not only have
purpose in life but they knew what it really takes to achieve their purpose
in life. I belief before a vehicle moves, you need get that which it
requires to move, which include Petrol. Engine oil and so on. Therefore
before any man becomes successful, he needs be a man of great purpose
aimin
g
a particular thing.
One thing that amazes me too is the fact that purpose empowers ability,
rejects stativity, commands authority, conpletes fulfillment and finally
secures destiny. I so much believe our inability to do something in life is
not because of anything but because of the image we paint of ourselves.
Each time I sit and think, one thing I regret is my not knowing my purpose
on time, but I got one consolation too, which is my journey so far, which I
attribute to daily empowerment to always work with the present and not the
past. I still remember when I knew nothing about purpose; all I sit to do
i
s
inject negative thoughts into myself, and instead of getting empower since
that used to be my primary aim I still get depressed. I'm happy today every
moment of my life now keeps increasing day by day.
Then each time I look at successful people, the first thing that comes to
m
y
mind was, can I really be this successful? And I'll also tell myself was 'I
guess not you cant.' Why because a lot of things were missing in my life
an
d
knowing my purpose in life was one of them, it was an unfortunate thing
tha
t
I lacked the clear understanding that a mans future is dependent on his
present foundation. Some are black, others white, some intelligent, others
less intelligent, some bound, other free. But I guess one fact still stands
out clearly that reminds us all that we all are born with a specific
purpos
e
in life. Well at this point I would like to say the force behind my saying
this now is the different mindset I now carry which keeps moving my steps
above my equals.
Dedication is one thing I've also learnt, which equally talks much on
commitment. One particular thing that actually sets men above their equals
is their ability to be committed towards everything they do. It is believed
when you put in one hour and another fellow puts in fifteen minutes there
i
s
no way the two will get the same result. Why because the other is more
committed than the other through the use of time.
Having read a lot of books I've come to realize that you need be committed
to a productive life before you can attract success. I always remind myself
each passing day that the key to success is preparation and dedication. I'm
glad I now have a great deal of what it takes to be committed, at this
poin
t
I'll like to say life is all about commitment, for commitment is a life
lon
g
treasure as life is all about finding solutions.
I learnt to always believe in myself, there are times when I used to avoid
a
lot of things, why because, I never believed in myself, I always get
discouraged, any little challenge aha, that's the end, I give up even
without thinking twice. Well thank God I've got a great lessons on great
books I've read and ever since my life has not been the same again. I've
learnt to always believe in myself by encouraging myself to keep trying at
all cost till I get the desired result.
Engaging the tool of patience is one thing I've also made part of me as
par
t
of lesson's I've learnt during the course of my levels one and two studies.
I now realize that to every thing there is a season and a time, therefore
b
y
doing the right things and at the right time, I'll get to that place I've
always wish to.
Other things I've learnt include time management, which has really taught
m
e
a great deal on how to maximize my 24 hours given to everyone equally both
the rich and the poor. And secondly financial management and issues that
concern's relationship and how to keep one. I've also learnt a lot on
capacity building which I've described below.
In this era of fast moving and fast minded approach to everything, there is
a need to take a pause and momentarily take a look at life from without.
A strong search for relevance and importance generally resides in each and
every one of us, although the only way t
attain importance is to endeavor to make contributions to our world and the
people around us. This leads to a place where we realize that we can only
give what we have.
This means that an empty life would surely produce empty results as
sustenance of success is only possible as a product of accumulated strength
in time past.
Life and history as witnessed the strong roll call of men and women who
hav
e
assumed success as their trademark. Benjamin Franklin, Mary Kay, Abraham
Lincoln, Samuel Adedoyin (Doyin Group) Aliko Dangote, Arthur McGuiness
(Guinness plc) est.
In between these people lies less than 15 years of formal education,
howeve
r
within the constraint of their desires, they became renowned voices adding
an excellence touch to every aspect of human endeavor they mingled with.
Franklin had only about three years of formal education, however he taught
himself single handedly till he became a lawyer as well as a remarkable
inventor. He is also regarded as one of the founding fathers of the present
USA with an unparallel contribution to the drafting of the American
constitution.
Adedoyin of Doyin Groups is an entrepreneur with holdings in more than 20
viable sectors, his educational career ended before he was 15 however he
stands as one of Nigeriaís foremost industrialist and employer of labor
est.
These aforementioned people were at inception equal to every youth around
them as at then. However, continuous self improvement and development as
produced men and women of deep know how about most issues.
If we still remember the starting of quote, there is a need to dig deep to
find answers to issues affecting us so as to stay a step ahead of our
challenges.
Capacity building involves expansion of the mental frontiers as knowledge
never leaves you the same, it helps create focus, guide reasoning, shape
thoughts, liberate mindsets and ultimately establish control to a large
extent, over life and its issues/ challenges.
Capacity building can be done by READING, DEEP REASONING, GIVING REGARD TO
FLEEING/ PASSING INFORMATION as within them is the seed for transformation
etc. Also, every activity and experience that stretches the mind
positively, and in a defined pattern, rather than create confusion.
In conclusion, it is necessary to note that capacity building saves you
fro
m
an incapacitate position at the peak or summit of success.
We need to establish a strong desire to make use of 15 billion pieces of
information estimated foe each day (in circulation) to ensure relevance in
an ever changing world like ours.
Thanks for leading those who have read as we are pleased to see the birth
o
f
a new dawn in life as well as follow up to success.
