Life and Business Lessons From MTN Project Fame West Africa By Kehinde Ajose

You don’t have to   be a project fame West Africa participant to be
able to maximize and turn loose the lessons inherent in the   reality
TV show. People miss out on the a life time opportunity to transform
their lives  when they just see the show as an entertainment medium
without viewing it as a platform to learn and be  educated about what
life is about. Here are few lessons you adopt from MTN ‘S project Fame
West Africa and adapt to your various lives pursuits. Let’s go!
1. Be exceptional
The contestants who made it through the auditions didn’t just scale
through by the fact that they possessed talent, but by the fact that
they were exceptional. During the auditions the judges were not just
looking for someone who can sing…but someone who has the ‘X factor’. The
same is true for any of life’s endeavor. Whether you are in showbiz or
playing the game of business, it’s your differentiation that will stand
you out. It’s your distinctiveness that makes you sought after .You need
to constantly emphasize your ‘Wow factor ‘and amplify it.
Iyanya’s   door into the Nigerian music mainstream was opened as a
result of his ability to change his music recipe and connect to what
people truly want.
2. Be You.
The most successful performers on Project Fame West Africa are
ultimately themselves. Even when they perform other artistes’ song, they
still   inject their own originality and authenticity. These
individuals are often applauded for bringing in their own style, verve,
and distinctiveness into any song they perform. Can you say this about
yourself or your business? Your originality is your greatest asset.
Everybody may be singing the same song, but you have to inject your own
tune into the song. Never   turn off the light of your authenticity.
3. Be open to correction
 
 From the faculty to the judges, they constantly implant
constructive criticism into the minds of the contestants. Any contestant
who doesn’t adhere to their corrections, and take note of their
criticisms will not go far in the  competition. The business of life is a
competition with several people jostling for what you want, therefore
if you refuse to be teachable and be open to the feedbacks you get from
your dealings with   clients, customers, and associates. Ask questions,
listen and learn
4. Be Engaging.
Project Fame West Africa contestants who emerge the
winners are individuals who involve and engage their audience whenever
they perform. They draw the audience into their performance, excite them
and go after their votes with everything they’ve got. Are you
connecting with your clients like this? Successful businesses  know what
their audience      want. It’s not   enough for you to know what you
want, you have to know what your audience knows and   constantly meet
their needs.  Business is   not about you, it’s about your audience.
What step are you taking in order to engage your audience   and connect
to their needs?
5. Be Consistent.
 Project Fame West Africa contestants   who thrive
during the competition and in the real music world are known to be
consistent at performing excellently. What separates them from the
others is that they constantly give their best and offer the best
performances. In life it is not what you do occasionally that matters,
but what you do consistently. Rendering an excellent service today and
offering a mediocre one tomorrow won’t make you a rock star in your
field. You need to constantly do things that are relevant and distinct
and doing them over and over again. That is the secret of
Chidinma’s   wide acclaim in the music industry. Consistency
is   established by what is called predictable excellence. This means
excellent experience people derive from doing business and associating
with your personal brand.
What   is required   to emerge as the winner in MTN’s Project
Fame West Africa, is the least required to thrive in the real music
industry. You need to constantly reinvent yourself in business and in
life in order to be inducted on life’s hall of fame. Go make it happen
