I’m a multipreneur, and SD Nuggets is designed to be a multi-disciplinary blog. So, expect to see links on the new Tayo’s Guest Posts page to my guest posts published on blogs in different niches.
If you run a high profile blog, website or print publication, and would like me to write for you, get in touch via my Writing Service page.
When I posted information about my new report (shown in the above -e-flyer on my Facebook timeline yesterday (9th August 2012), someone posted the question: “Are you into agriculture(?)“.
I gave him a short answer first, and then went on to elaborate for the benefit of others who would come across the post in future.
I believe YOU will find my response potentially beneficial. Which is why I’ve reproduced it below.
But just before you go on to read that, you should know that every person who has (or WILL) ever purchase(d) a copy of my Feed Formulation handbook from me, gets it at no cost. You pay absolutely NOTHING. Just send me an email via tayo at tksola dot com, to get details of what you need to do.
So, here’s the response I gave to the question about my work.
Do you know what happens when you type a web address or URL (like www.tayosolagbade.com) into your Internet Explorer browser’s URL entry bar, and click “GO” or press “Enter”? Read this article to learn what happens, and how/why this process sometimes can become slow to the point that it frustrates users like yourself!

Are you like most people who want to write, but struggle? Then this article can help you. How many times have you come up with a title for an article, report, book, or speech/talk, but failed to get beyond the first page? In this article I share a number of techniques(and strategies) that I personally use individually, and in combination, on a regular basis to start and finish writing my articles, books, reports – and even speeches/talks I have to deliver! All the original publications available on this website were written using one or more of these methods. Some I learnt about from reading other authors’ advice, while others I actually conceived and developed by myself. Where the latter is the case, I have taken pains to mention it :-).

Due to the way some people have been brought up – coupled with the programming done on their minds in formal schooling systems – they believe that to get ahead in life, they need to compete with another person. That’s why you find people who claim to be friends(sometimes even relatives) working hard to outdo one another.
One frequent fallout of their desperation to better(or get “one-up” on) each other is the absence of true sincerity, love and free, candid expression of feelings that would normally be expected to exist in such relationships.
I believe anyone who wants to get great fulfillment in life, must live without carrying the burden of anxiety caused by a need to keep up with, or outdo another person, in order to look good/appear successful.
This article explains why competing ONLY against yourself(like I do!) will help you live a more productive, fulfilling and LONGER life.

It is possible to write a great article that never gets read by most of those who visit the site it is published on, even though it contains useful information they would appreciate – IF they saw it. A major reason why this happens is often the article title: No matter how loaded the complete article is with useful knowledge for readers, if the title is not “attention-getting”, and “action-inducing” enough to compel them to click “for more”, you may not be rewarded with as much exposure as your efforts would deserve. (Then there is of course the issue of keyword research in crafting an article title, which ultimately affects how easily an article will get found via search engines). Read this article to learn about the “Article Readers’ Interest Index (RII)™ Analysis” that can help you determine what titles your visiting online readers are most interested in. What you discover using that tool, will better equip you to decide, more intelligently, on the next article title/area to write on, that will give you the maximum marketing exposure you desire.

On page 36 of the Daily Sun (Nigerian Tabloid) of Tuesday June 21, 2005, a report was published titled “Our System can’t produce millionaire writers”. It was written by Amaka Adetula based on an interview with Nduka Otiono – a Poet and Secretary of Association of Nigerian Writers (ANA).
[NB: This write-up is based on an original piece written/published online on spontaneousdevelopment.com (in 2005)]
Nduka’s commentary on the state of writing in Nigeria was indeed illuminating. Continue reading

This Report Explains What I Did
I have chosen to share the story behind my discovery with you, to illustrate how having a questioning mind, being willing to GO OUT and get answers (and also being a SHREWD thinker, with a focus on frugality) can help one make very useful discoveries that could boost one’s productivity, and even those of others.
Like I said earlier, some technology gurus and other people with relevant exposure already know how to do what I did. However, the TRUTH is that the larger majority, who use smart phones, may not be familiar with this kind of useful/cost-saving method for browsing the web. I have also noticed out here, that those who know, are sometimes reluctant to share with others, even if they are offered financial or other rewards to do so.
They just prefer to keep it to themselves. As a Performance Enhancement Specialist, my goal is to explore, discover and document strategies that can help as many people as possible function at their optimal best, to achieve their goals at work and in life, in as many areas of endeavour as I can be relevant. And I aim to earn profitable rewards from doing so, over time. This report is just another of many efforts towards achieving that purpose.
