00:01So, it's the world we live, you know.
00:09Time flies, time takes us places.
00:19It's not always a moment of movement.
00:27Rather a moment of age of creativity.
00:36Because the more creative we become, the more we understand the value of now.
00:47The world is a wilderness of everything.
00:56But what makes the difference with we humans is we can wear things like this.
01:02To only help us limit the amount of sun rays that are hitting our eyes.
01:16Because like they damage anything else, they also damage or cause effects to our eyes too.
01:32What could have kept them in the sunshine for long?
01:36I don't see it anywhere.
01:39The fruits and berries under the trees, the calves existing.
01:49At the time the spears came in,
01:56It was always different.
01:59So, what am I talking about here?
02:01I'm talking about the communities and how they lived in those ages.
02:05We're not in those ages, but we're talking about the modern day today.
02:09Yeah?
02:11The modern day now, where you as you decide what others can't decide for your own safety.
02:27Like the way you wear your clothes so that the sun doesn't hit you directly in case you're on the
02:33road.
02:34It's not necessary that the clothes are to cover you not to be naked.
02:40Those who travel a lot, no places where even having a heavy blanket over your body is a bit, what
02:52can I say?
02:54Too much?
02:58Because if you have a heavy blanket on your body for something like those days,
03:04you might end up just being over-drained, like over-sweating all the night.
03:10And you might not be able to cope with the speed of dehydration.
03:15So, this is where adaptation and understanding the environment of the communities we're in comes in.
03:25And in this value of now, technology also helps us more to understand what is really all exactly coming through
03:33and why.
03:36Today we're talking about robots, we're talking about the AI, we're talking about
03:46and we're imagining all that while others are already enjoying it, while others are still striving to afford it, while
03:59others haven't even thought of it.
04:03How much awareness have we created?
04:07So that people don't just get overwhelmed when they get there.
04:15It's a challenge always when new technology walks in, people get overwhelmed, like those who grew up in the times
04:25when landlines were the thing.
04:31Kids with landlines in their homes could always use the police and the emergency number for their own good reasons.
04:42Dad is not home, Mom is not home, why don't we call the police?
04:46The landline is in the home.
04:49So, that also distracted the emergency system.
04:54People got frustrated, people couldn't understand the essence of the emergency.
05:01That's why today it's even becoming more personal.
05:06In case you need help, which is why technology is actually here to bridge that gap.
05:15Because today it's even more personal, like, I need to call somebody who is at precinct eight.
05:24Then, you're not calling the emergency number for help.
05:29Because, you know, when you call the emergency number, there will be a lot of questions or probably the person
05:35won't pick you up and then you won't be helped and things like that.
05:38Just like many businesses go wrong with toll-free numbers.
05:45There's zero, two hundred or zero, eight hundred, whatever toll-free code you own.
05:55That number is meant to create more communication, to ease communication for clients.
06:07But if you don't have a call center for that or you don't have a dedicated team for that, then
06:14there is no essence why you're investing in that number for your business or for your brand.
06:21The same applies to today when you look at social media networks.
06:27Yes, social media networks are helping businesses and brands become better and bigger.
06:37But will they accommodate everything?
06:45The answer is they can only accommodate if others understand the value of public experiences.
06:56Today, when we talk about public experiences online, you talk about streaming platforms, you talk about the transaction platforms, you
07:04talk about the entertainment platforms, you talk about the gaming platforms, you talk about the educational platforms.
07:12These are public spaces, people go there to get more awareness on what is exactly around their lives.
07:26And among these public spaces are the public markets already online or digitally there, where you just order something while
07:35you're at your home and then it's delivered.
07:37Now imagine if in every community at least someone held a smartphone and someone had access and the knowledge to
07:49do that.
07:51Just one person, just one person per home, to be able to buy something from right where they are and
07:58it's delivered.
07:59Because if the delivery systems can deliver anything from any country to any part of the world, then they can
08:06deliver.
08:09It's no question anymore.
08:11It's just a matter of what you want to be delivered.
08:16They've been delivering letters ever since.
08:19They've been making phone calls ever since.
08:22They've been accessing satellite images ever since.
08:25They have been accessing cameras ever since.
08:32What are you delivering?
08:34That's the question and the big, big, big, bold question here.
08:41So as we're looking at the time of having space shuttles coming through,
08:48people are going to be moving away from, like, a lot of things there.
08:54Transport is going to become different.
08:55If we're looking at multi-planetary, you know, experiences, travel, tourism.
09:05It means we're going to be looking at more than just what has been the ordinary.
09:12And that's what makes the difference here.
09:18So as the world thinks, as the world imagines, as the world elevates from there, how are you elevating you?
09:27As in you, your community, you, the people you lead, you, your people, your family, how are you elevating them?
09:37It might not be necessary that you are the one benefiting more from it.
09:42Someone else in the family might be smarter than you at making more money out of it.
09:48But the fact is, as long as you empower them, it makes more change.
09:57It's like going to the school and the class only has two students in it.
10:01So those two students in the classroom can only read from one textbook.
10:08And reading from that one textbook means there they will understand differently.
10:18And it is always the scope of life we're moving in.
10:25The world lives to abuse most of the priorities or privileges given to them.
10:34You wake up today and the Clean Energy Climate Action teams are like, hey, why don't we have solar lamps
10:42everywhere in every community?
10:43Why don't we have solar communication devices like digital devices all through the communities to amplify everything?
10:53Then there are communities that don't actually understand that.
10:56Why are you going to struggle to explain it to them?
11:01Because there's so much use to services being in populated areas.
11:06There's so much use to making profits out of the service.
11:12If a place is more densely populated than the other, then let's put the service here.
11:21So that we make more money. If the others get to pick up, we will expand.
11:28How about looking at that side first?
11:34Because like every bank account, it tests with a zero.
11:41So why would I want my bank account to have a fixed start of something like a billion on it?
11:51A billion US dollars is too much to say it's what you like deducting from until you get to zero.
12:01So by the time you get to zero, trust me, your brains will be back and you will never want
12:07that one billion to ever get lower than the billion it is.
12:14So technology changes, communities change, innovations change.
12:23The smaller the devices become, the better, the smarter the world becomes, the better.
12:31Today if the health sector, today if the health sector can actually treat us or find diseases around our homes
12:47through Wi-Fi systems,
12:50those who already know that it can do that.
12:57Imagine what else it can do.
13:00I mean even if it's just a Wi-Fi photo going to a neighbour's room.
13:06You never know how much it can help you, even you, without knowing.
13:12If the doctors can do that, imagine what surveillance or intelligence defense can do to only protect you.
13:23Why am I saying this in this valley of now?
13:27The smaller we imagine, the more powerful we become.
13:35The smaller and softer we become, the more powerful we become at protecting and creating more for humanity.
13:48And no one can take that away from us.
13:51It's our dignity.
13:57Just like that little small camera on every smartphone.
14:02If it's that powerful to give you that good quality image.
14:08Then imagine if everyone was just empowered to have some life calm handbags, you know, or backpokes for every child
14:23in school.
14:27My child is at school.
14:29My child is at school.
14:29Their backpokes has a nannicum on it.
14:39If it's not on their back, they're in class.
14:50If they're not in class, it's on their back.
14:53There I get to see where my child is all the time.
14:58But now, some can afford that.
15:01If it's invented and created awareness for, yeah, others can't.
15:09Because the non-cam already exists.
15:11The smartphones already exist.
15:14The car driving back cameras, you know, are already in existence.
15:21That tiny, that small.
15:23And very helpful.
15:26So, whatever you're looking for, it's all about your mindset.
15:31No one is coming after you with your mindset.
15:37The other time I was watching a Nigerian movie.
15:42Then I remembered the times of, where they used to say witchcraft all the time in those Nigerian movies.
15:54Then I remembered, they're saying it's witchcraft, yeah, but they're acting it in English.
16:03If it's witchcraft and they're acting it in English, they're marketing their talents more and directing them to the right
16:10direction.
16:11Yeah?
16:13Yeah?
16:13And you, with your mindset, keeping stagnant in mind, your one mindset, it's witchcraft.
16:20Yeah?
16:20You are the one only drowning yourself.
16:28They're elevating their economies, you're drowning yourself.
16:33And like, every swimming human knows, the only way to save a drowning man is if you don't allow them
16:48to over, stay over your body.
16:51You know?
16:53Because sometimes, they might want to be up after that experience.
17:01And in that format of trying to be up, they might sink you.
17:04So you always have to know, oh, okay, I'm helping him, but they must not sink me.
17:12Just like your religious leader.
17:18The only way you can show the power of your God is if your church is moving on.
17:28It's adding value.
17:29If it's saving, if it's teaching people how to create more jobs around their communities, if it's teaching people how
17:36to save and elevate their communities and families.
17:38That's how your church becomes more powerful.
17:44Because no matter how many times they come to church on Sunday, hallelujah, hallelujah, they have to go to work.
17:52They have to feed their stomachs.
17:54You have to wear a good, nice suit to be more exemplary so that they can trust more in your
18:02God, so they can know the power of your God, irrespective of your religion.
18:10And that's why the believers are always thinking different.
18:16While somebody is saying, Illuminati, the other one is saying, hey, how much savings do I have?
18:24Okay, Illuminati.
18:28While somebody is gossiping about what happened a decade ago while you're still in like a toddler or while you're
18:38still a child in school.
18:41You ask your wife, hey, is food ready?
18:47That means you've elevated yourself from an environment of where people are actually worrying about food.
18:58You've elevated yourself from life where people are actually worrying about savings.
19:04You don't worry about how much you're spending.
19:11When you have an emergency to attend to, you don't stress.
19:20Calling people, hey, I have an emergency, I need this and this and this.
19:24That means you've elevated yourself.
19:29And then there is a discipline of what we call corporate responsibility, the giving back to the communities.
19:37As a brand, as an individual, as a community, as a business, as whichever entity you are, how do you
19:44give back to the communities?
19:45Some give back free seedlings.
19:49Some give back free Bibles, free Korans, free climate information, free bedsheets, free blankets, free mattresses during emergencies like disasters,
20:02like earthquakes and all that, or mudslides.
20:06So how are you always thinking different in the line of elevating people, you and others?
20:15Before you say, okay, whatever activity they are doing is against me.
20:23Imagine its impact, and why, and when.
20:28Like I said, you might be in a home where you're the first one to even acquire a smartphone, but
20:37your other person next to you, not necessarily your bloodline, can learn something from you.
20:44It might be a maid.
20:46It might be a maid.
20:46And then they use the smartphone differently than you.
20:51It won't make you dumb.
20:53It will actually make you smarter to empower more.
21:00Because if they can do that, then they can do something more.
21:05And whether they believe it and trust and accept that they learned it from you, you, as the person who
21:17remembers how, will always smile and like, it's great.
21:24They're moving on.
21:31That's the value of now, the value of technology, the power of understanding what others don't.
21:40And if you even ask yourself what else is there, then you should remember that what is there is everything.
