Thank You
In between the hustles and bustles of everyday, we all need a break during which
we relax our minds and rebuild our hopes for the future and ideas on how to
make the present a little bit better.
Thank you for making Esteemed a part of that break and with this second edition,
we hope that you will have a good read and get a new outlook on life.
Successful is the term I would give to our launch edition. We received very
humbling responses that were the icing on the cake. You should have seen the
finger biting and wrist rubbing that went on after the upload on the website
(www.esteemedonline.com) was done. Your responses have served to spur us on
to another edition. According to our statistics, we had a total of 2,948 hits since
our launch on March 31, 2007 with e-visits from Kenya, USA, European Union,
Bahrain, The Netherlands, United Arab Emirates and France among others.
Thank you for passing the word on Esteemed and please continue sending us
those comments and points of concern to make us better and to provide a better
read for you.
In this edition, we interview three individuals in different industries hospitality,
motoring and academic (a teacher). They give us an insight on what keeps them
going in their chosen career paths and where they see themselves in relation to
their daily arenas. We also feature articles on customer relations, human
relations - if you work, then you know office politics can be as interesting as
national politics by our honorable members! For the quiet moment, we have quite
a read in store for you as well as the investment idea of the season, and much
more which is sure to make No. 2 a good No 1 read.

heart felt condolences with the bereaved families of the KQ flight 507 and those
whose kin have fallen prey to the Mungiki spate of killings. Our God in heaven is
all seeing and all mighty. As His good and right word says, He made everything
and everyone for a purpose even the wicked for the day of trouble. God will do
justice to those that have been wronged and for sure, He knows our joy and our
sorrows. Nothing is hidden from Him and if we need the comfort, He will provide
it.

Be strong and of good courage. God picks up from where you cannot take it
anymore and remember this, He is not so unjust that He will bring to us, trials that
we cannot stand, or trials that are beyond our strength. If you know a cake bakes
at 80° Celsius that is the temperature you will set for it to come out perfect. If you
know it cannot withstand 95° Celsius, you will not give it that. How much more,
God in heaven? He knows us better than we know ourselves and as He watches
over us without so much as batting an eyelid, nothing will happen to us that He
has not okayed.

“I read and re-read the articles in the first edition and my my my... they made
such good reading and I was so encouraged especially by the entrepreneurs and the
inspiration pointers and especially the one on stop being afraid. Yaani, I must say
I learnt a lesson from those two guys article of just how things can come to be and
not to give up and to press on.”
