Things I learnt from this video:
Competition starts from your family (be smart)
For you to survive in the city, you have to get some specific skills.
Give value and people will come after you.
The type of problem you solve will determine the kind of income you will have.
The best investors in life are thieves (imitators).
Consistency is key.
Start small.
Hold on to your dreams, it will surely come true.
Hmmm.... Thanks for this Tayo, I've learnt a lot.
That’s the summary bro
This was a powerful video. The message in the interview did not cut any corners! He just spoke the truth. He is the total package.
@@doreenonekalit9888 I noticed that too. wanted to hear more from him
He is full of courage and energy to attain his goals. His Integrity plays a lot to his success
Yes he dropped so many gems
This guy talks like a book and he says he did not go to school ?, he went to the biggest of all , the school of live and he mastered all the subjects
I am speechless . Fabulous .
Absolutely!!
Lol I was about say that even before reading the comments
"Talks like a book" THAT is the phrase I could not find words for!! Just an amazing person I hope to sit with him some day.
He is a Luo and us luos we do have the dictionary installed in our DNA from birth . I am very proud and inspired by him
Kennedy Trends thought he said he is from western Kenya?
This man should be a motivational speaker! His voice is soothing. Dam!
I agree... 👏👏👏
One Africa Project 😂😂😂 asin eh
He articulates his message better than some proffesors
Well spoken brethren.
Exactly! His words are just so coordinated
This guy is not only a body guru but also a life guru.
We need a LOVE button for this video. This man is so inspiring. He should be doing motivational speaking. Thank you for shining light on so many social issues in South Africa, especially the xenophobia thing.
I just saw this and you took it out of my mouth.
His wisdom is as big as his muscles. Very wise man
Jesus this man is so insightful, intelligent and inspiring.
Thanks for watching!
Exactly! And he downplays it because he didn't get a formal education but he's sharper than most who did. I learnt so much from this video and this man. Thank you Taiwo
And speaks English so eloquently. Amazing rugs to riches story
I was thinking the same listening to him...more grease to his elbow..
Are you addressing Jesus in your comment, or are you just using His holy name to emphasize?
For a person saying he wasn't formally educated because his father didn't value it, he sounds extremely educated. It just goes to show how much you can learn outside of the traditional classroom.
I'm a South African and wow.. I felt in love with this guy story....
I am a Kenyan and this makes me happy to see a brother excelling in his craft.. deep story
They missed to tell his investments and net worth because the gym is the process of making money.
I know right!!! 🇰🇪
Hello friends I'm Samuel from South Africa and am a data analyst and senior account manage at options Trade and investment company ,am here to introduce you guys to our platform ,I can teach you how to register and make money online through your phone or computer
You can make millions of money within a week, Dm for more info thanks.
Same here. I'm glad he's achieved so much
@@justinamusyoka4986 hello
I'm South African the way this man jyst explained and spoke about xenophobia man. This man inspire me to work hard chase my dreams and stay positive. This man is amazing. May the favor of the Lord continue to be apon his life.
Very decent words brother!👊🏾✊🏾
What tgis man said about adding value hit hard
Wonderful thank you for the insight @@tshilidzimadzhege4949
"Whatever it is that you want is what God wants for you" 🔥🇰🇪🇿🇦👊🏽
Deep!
'Money is a by-product of providing value to the society'. This is insightful
That's the entire MBA Curriculum in one sentence. 🤩
Successful people meet human needs
What a smart guy and never went to school
"We are more similar than we are different" So articulate and inspiring.
I feel like I have attended a whole semester of business class ! This guy talks like a professor of a top ranked business school! So much knowledge and wisdom!
"Money is a by-product of the value you add to society." ~ Steve Mululu.
There's something about this guy, the tone of his voice alone has got power. It's like he was born to prosper
This guys speaks so clearly eloquently and intelligently.
What a gentleman clear minded, he knew what he wanted and went after it, Big up my Kenyan Brother I am South African and proud of u, Viva 🇰🇪🇿🇦Thank u for making Africa Great
As for you Tayo keep up the good work👌👍👌👍
Africa is blessed, these are the kind of people who should be given airtime to motivate the people. He speaks well, his wise, respectful, and he came to build SA not to destroy it. Respect.Long live Africa long live. blessed man.
“Like all Africans we are never used to living in one place. We migrate from season to season to search for better life”. Powerful words right here. Big up my brother
From this video, my understanding is that Mr Mululu does not have a tertiary education. Yet, he is so eloquent and intelligent. This means that common sense is such a virtue to pursue after.
This is not just about intelligence. Intelligence is cheap. This is *"pure wisdom!"*
I don't understand people giving this video a tomb down. Isn't this inspiring enough? Plus he sounds better than some Harvard graduate.
Could be the 59 sibling
@@allengwada1158 hahahahaha
Actually this guy understands business. He can teach at any business school.
@@allengwada1158 Funny.😀😀😀
They are ignorant
The three stages of manifestation:
1. Mind
2. Paper
3. Physical
You have the formula now, follow your passion and inspire everyone around you, be an example for everyone. Good luck!
This brother was dropping gems like there's no tomorrow.
More power to you Tayo.
Thanks for watching 🙏🏾
Every sentence was a gem 👏🏿👏🏿
It was too much to bear..just wow
Steve is the most increble person. He leads by example and knows every single member of his gym by name. Every time you go to gym, you'll find him walking around and greeting every single person in the gym. Love love love this!
Amazing
We need more Kenyans supporting each other. There are more untapped talents in our country. It's great to see a man who dared to dream and made it abroad. 🇰🇪
He's ours now 😂. We're always happy to have Kenyans over
Brilliant, wonderful individual. As a Kenyan, I'm so proud of him.
Man! My heart is bubbling with excitement as I watch this. So inspirational!
Samuel Chege I’m glad you caught it. Kenyans are something special, man. I’m eternally proud to be one
When he was talking about the satellites only receiving, and then said "our people". Thats what its all about.
I'm 22 and I could listen to this man speak all day.
I feel you my brother, I'm also 22 and his voice has been echoing my mind since. We have alot of unlearning to do and reprogram our minds for success
He oozes wisdom. Every word he says causes an impact to any upright-thinking person
my favourites part
This man didn't go to school and so much sagacity resides inside of him.
I am totally blown away. In fact, the spiritual depth of his story is just ineffable.
I am short of words.
Good content Tayo..
Sagacity, ineffable... no, you are not short of words.
@@noisycomment1990
Lol...
Sunny, I see you. Well said bro
@@noisycomment1990 😂😂😂😂I was like Sagacity!!??
@@mutegikanana2085 lmao i got MAD vocabulary... and I had to give that one a couple of thoughts lol
The Disney of adults” this guy sounds like black superman
God bless 🇰🇪
Man, I can listen to this guy speak all day. This was a master class in life
The lesson I've learnt here is: I don't have to leave Africa to be successful. I may not even need to leave my country.
Not at all bro...all the best 🙏🏽
kaa nyumbani bro
That's is very true Aluoch. you can make it here.
That's the spirit
U are right! It has been so hard for people to understand that. It is not fun being poor anywhere. It is how u use what u are and have around u that makes the difference 😃
Tayo you were sitting with the walking library there. I can listen to this man the whole day
This is one of the most binding, inspiring interviews I have heard in a very, very long time. This is an interview that all high school children and people who have lost hope should hear. This is an absolutely fantastic message.
Kenyans in the house, come here we talk!
Mululu apewe Luhya love.... mnaona power of chicken??!!! 🇰🇪
Ingughu
The guy speaks like a Don from Oxford University, such an incredible outspoken person. May God continue to bless you.
I like how Tayo took ideas of his fans, now he gives an interviewee time to speak more than he does. 👍🏿👏🏿
I always lament(to a point of being frustrated) at interviewers who always interrupt when the guest is speaking and you ask what was the point of the interview in the first place, if they keep interjecting?
@@zinzimdedetyana1234 Anele Mdoda does that a lot, she talks more than the interviewee
U noticed that bro
He possesses a rare skill.
Behind that muscle mass there is even bigger functioning brain, Brava 🙏
This inspired me a lot . My dream is to build my own gym's 😌inshAllah
Nothing but respect and admiration. People who say South Africans hate immigrants don't know SA.
This channel is fire! 🔥
What a wise man, I fully concur with him, fear drives locals to mistrust foreigners, even worse there is also fear among locals. Black South Africans are not the most united people, unlike our white counterpart.
I used to watch soapies until I found that it was so negative stereotypes about SA men. They will never tell positive stories like Robert Marawa's, DJ Fresh, Patrice Motsepe, etc. Many SA men and women have beat the odds coming from very humble beginning to reach the top. It's always about killing on tv, never building, never coming together. People don't believe there is an agenda. Look at how america portray their police on tv shows and the reality. On TV they are heroes who fight evil. In reality it's the total opposite. But their tv are positive, trying to inspire more to grow up and wanting to become heroes. Why our african shows not like that? outside of SA TV portray lots of witchcraft and black magic, so much so that people believe more in black magic and never in themselves.
The people who hate South Africa are the foreigners not in S.A but the ones who have never been to S.A.
@@mositoonafrica8299 Preach brother
Only drug dealers say that because they know South Africans will come after them for doing that. Hard working Africans are always welcome here
I go to his gym!!!! ❤️ ❤️
Awesome!
That's beautiful
Yo pretty can we date
Gu Mu iddiat
Wonderful. He is sagacious. body and mind fitness. Thanks for supporting him.
Amazing content. My takeaways.
1. Focus on Spiritual Abundance rather than our Physical Limitations.✅
2. Creating Value for Others.📈
3. Dream. Write. Execute💯
I actually wrote notes!
This is why South Africans are so loving and welcoming of Kenyans. No bashing, just understanding and looking at things from both sides plus TRUTH 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
Wow 😮 that’s all I can say I love you people of 🇰🇪 Kenya from a South African 🇿🇦
Thank you...
We love you too
Love you too ,from Kenya 🇰🇪.
Sending love your way 😊
@ludwe we love you south Africans you are welcome to invest in Kenya 🇰🇪 too! let us preach love.....
If you want to have money.. Look for problems.. And solve them.. Come up with solutions.. I LOVED THIS TAYO 🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️
How exactly did this man not go to school? 'cause the eloquence is something else
He didn't make school an excuse, he educated himself.
That is self orientation
Life is the best school, I have met Harford grads that are very dumb.
Education is not everything
Street kids in Nairobi speak fluent English and they don't go to school
In the spirit of making inspiring content, let's make a movie on this man.
wow for someone who is uneducated, this chap speaks with so much wisdom and of course knowledge....nice one.
Education is relative .
Academia often has little to do with wisdom/knowledge. That is gained through life experience and perspective.
true!
@@PhoenixHomeEd True. Judging from how well spoken he is, I bet he has a very solid self-education.
@@mwanikimwaniki6801 true
25 years in SA and still got his Western Kenya accent. Others will travel to Europe and N. America for 2 years and come back speaking from their nostrils.
I have totally enjoyed watching this vid! How timely it is as I just launched a business last week, whose idea I've had since 2013 but took the bold step recently (even though I am a full-time employee). One day, it will be me living my dream. I am starting small, but my dream is so big, I can't wait to get there. I'm going to save the link to this video, then keep re-watching to remind me all the lessons that I've learned from this brainy gentleman.
A huge thanks to you Tayo for this video.
Speaking from nostrils😂
Two years is even too much. 3 months is just enough😂😂😂. Your comment finished me😂😂😂😂😂
All I heard was South African accent stop lying
Van Allen LOL. That’s weird that you even calling me a liar. The South African accent makes just about 5%. I could’ve guessed he was from Western Kenya even without being told about it.
@@AGeeez if you are not Kenyan and have not heard Western Kenyans speak please don't argue. He sounds very very Luhya from western Kenya
Steve Mululu comes across to me as the African Arnold Schwartzenegger: a strong man that became a strong leader. And with better English than Arnold :-)
Even his voice
Minus saying,'I will be back'🤣🤣
No. We refuse to be given names from the West in comparison. No. He's Steve Mululu. Period. Unique in his craft. Arnold could be the American or Austrian Steve Mululu. Wacheni hiyo tabia, please!
@@diapale1 Yes you are right, it is a bad habit to see the world only in your own references from EU/US. And Steve is for sure an original. Time for me to learn and visit more countries, SA, Tanzania, Nigeria, .. in Africa.
@@simonklaver You must be a humble person who means well, I like that. I knew some african will not be pleased by this comparison. However, it somewhat makes sense considering Arnold is a famous person. It's just that there's still that internal war between Blacks and Whites since Whites considered our race as inferior for centuries because our ancestors lived differently to them. Also, some of us don't like it when a White person compliments how well we speak English. To avoid bad energy rather say "He articulates well"
This man is DEEP. He said a few things there that have Magic in them...
If you can dream it, it means God is giving you tools so that you can manifest it. Only if you don’t give up.
Amen. God puts dreams in you and also ability to fulfil those dreams. Godly biz ideas comes thru dreams
This may be your best video yet. So much knowledge dropped in this video.
Hey Mike, just wanna thank you for your videos too. They changed my life. Seeing a black man doing the things you do is very inspiring. Keep it up brother
A successful Kenyan and successful Nigerian sitting in South Africa discussing how success is attained. Now lets fix this statement. Successful Africans discussing success in Africa
Wow! Very inspiring... This man Steve has wisdom beyond belief. I have nothing but absolute massive respect for him. I loved this interview!
25 Years? This Gent is South African. ✊🏿🇿🇦🤝🏿
Yea
Exactly! ✊🏿
💯
He's so South African, he came close to suffering under apartheid.
His tribe luhya in western kenya, migrated to kenya during the mfecane Zulu wars, their accent and language completely the same!
It’s actually just starts from the mind. He said “ this is not for me” to the life he had back in Kenya 🇰🇪. This is very relatable.
Very very relatable💯
Very relatable💯
He is very clever and systematic. He has a systenatic engineering mind
Wow I am Speechless. The level of intellect this gentleman has is mind blowing. This guy should coach: African politicians, teachers, physicians, entrepreneurs and PTs... Best interview from Africa, I learned more from this man than my years of Uni in the UK. Well done Tayo, best interview of 2020. Nice work
And to think of it that he mentioned that he ddnt manage to pursue an education...if "who made the rules" was a person
Is it just me or this conversation was spiritual? haibo 😭
It was very spiritual.. he said a lot that people missed. He referred to Kemetic Maat of God beingin self that we tapped into our Godly self by doing Godly stuff. Visualisation to create the reality.
This guy is intelligent with a perfect diplomacy
So inspiring, his voice almost like that of Jeff Koinange,ooh my ma men🤝🙏, ...inshort wake up and chase after your dreams
I am so inspired by this man , so well spoken, super intelligent and has motivated me not to give up on my dreams. Thanks for this amazing video 🙂 a South African trying to survive in America
This man is spiritual and loaned with deep wisdom!
This man is actually amazing. This man is extremely brilliant, I’d pay money to get his opinion and advice about my plans. Wow. Africans are brilliant.
You are on point dear
i am Kenyan and so proud of my eloquent Bro has he ever considered motivational speaking he has an extra talent .Thank you Tayo Aina you have a soft spot for Kenya God bless you Bro
Watched it twice, now I am able to watch it again. It resonates with every African chasing the dream. Another eternal value shared on the channel.
I'm so happy I found your channel, it bring hope to Africans. Our future is bright let's work together 1love🇿🇦🇿🇦
"Money is the byproduct of the value you add to society".
I felt that
Daaamn this guy. I'm super inspired
"Money is the byproduct of the value you add to society"
#wordOfTheDay!
...This was my take of the day too!😊
What a man.
He is so intelligent, he took charge of the interview and made sure he dogged deep to every single question.
When you learn how to deal with humans then you are on your way to greatness.
I've picked up a lot of Gems from this video, more than I have from attending Entrepreneurial workshops and motivational talks. You're an inspiration Mr. Mululu. Much love from Kenya.
I love how he talks. He's not talking as a foreigner in South Africa because he's not. He's an African man. I wish to meet him one day just to learn a thing or two from this leader.
The power of visualization... What your mind can imagine already exists in a parallel reality to the one you are currently experiencing, you only have to align your thoughts with ACTION to step into the parallel reality. It will become your primary reality. To achieve a desire or goal it is necessary that you are vibrating at a high frequency in order for your brain’s neurotransmitters to open the voltage-gated ion receptors which cause an action potential to manifest in 3D reality. You can keep your individual vibration high by blocking out all information and social media content - that is news, tv shows, movies, dark Netflix, and music that are negative polarity and lower your vibration to low frequency level. Exercise your Free Will to choose information; do not accept everything that is presented in front of you. Not everything created “for us” or promoted by people who look “like us” is actually good for us. Much of it is toxic by design. Don’t give your energy to everything; there is power in withholding your attention and energy from that which seeks to destroy us as a collective and a black community. Stay discerning! Love and Light ❤️
Thanks for sharing this!
awakened saul out there
I love this
Very well said!
So we gonna skip the fact that his dad has 60 children 🤣 Imagine being 1/60
His Dad has 60 kids fr?
I respect his father
A limited edition🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Being 1 of the 60; he already uplifted more than 10 000 kids and keeps doing!
congrats man....SA needs to understand Africans make Africa great .please treat fellow Africans with love and respect.
Stevovo, what a great guy! I was a member of his gym until work took me out of the country. He is a real inspiration, knowing each and every member by first name. He is there on the floor with his team.
_"If you can dream it, it means God is putting you tools to make sure that you can manifest it, only if you don't give up."_ I believe that.
Wise words,,,thank you ,,,
This all I needed to hear ,,
@@Marrie254 keep going, and pray for and seek out genuine and godly people to help you achieve it.
@@BreezeeGreenz Thank you so much for encouragement,,,, appreciated 🙏🙏
🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️👍🏽❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽
Yaya omundu wefwe , he understands that one. God is faithfully , you just have to look up to him and trust
This man has physical, mental, and spiritual strength that is truly humbling. I salute him for finding his pathway and sharing that journey with us all. His words are so motivational and his voice so certain that I shall watch this video again. Asante sana for posting your interview with him!! Kwaheri!
"We're more similar than we're different" Lovely interview
We sure are!! Thanks for watching!
Great interview! He was dropping gems left, right and center. As I finalize plans to resettle back home in Kenya (after this Covid nonesense goes away), this type of content helps me to rid the mind of all the negativity the West has fed me over the last two decades. He is a force to be reckoned with.
Thing two... his dog is absolutely beautiful!
Much love Fleur Lovin, all the best
To start with, as a Kenyan I'm proud of this man.
The power of "imagination" can be attested by what he has accomplished.
This man new what he wanted from day one ever since he opened his eyes and felt that there was a better life for him out there than in his own village.
Surprisingly, this man didn't pursue education but listening to him he's worthy addressing Oxford graduants on their D Day. He didn't attend school but he's very educated.
This clearly shows nobody's dream should be limited by the set standards of this world.
DREAM BIG. "I'd come to this empty space every night and visualize it full of people" Mululu says and sure enough the dream was actualized.
I love this piece.
Im South African. I'm currently working on my new business (my life's purpose). This is incredibly inspiring
God bless what you're doing Tayo
Amen. Thank You 🙏
Enlightened person. I may go to see his gym and check out how things are.
You don't have to go to school to be educated. This man spits out knowledge and wisdom....This was a master class!
The only Africa (Kenya) story of successful business man that made sense and has some truth in it
Amazing how he still have the Kenyan accent after all that time in SA...this guy is inspiring in so many ways...kudos my Kenyan bro
I'm so proud of our Kenyan brother. He has achieved it despite the challenges e went through. So determined and never giving up.
This guy is better than most graduates I know, wisdom visionary strategic. And critical thinking, recipe to succes.
He must be a mentor to the youth and he is a christian too wow such wisdom
Please, Uncle T. Don’t stop doing these interviews!
My advice to Africans living in SA, once you establish your business there, consider taking this template back home and creating same company which will create jobs. This is what I will do myself
And why do you need to go to South Africa to get a template? We were all created to prosper in different places. I did well in business in Kenya than I am now in Canada. Most SouthAfrican companies barely survive in Kenya. They bring their South African managements in to Kenya and 99% of them die
@@DjRHINOInternational1 You don't have to go to SA. As an diaspora, any business skills you acquire should be then taken to your home country. Especially if you pays thousands £$ for expensive university degrees for nothing to show for it
Amen! It doesn't help creating wealth in South Africa but leaving your country in ruin and poverty..... Its a sign of a lack of vision.. The whole of Africa can't live in SA
@@DjRHINOInternational1 but do u ever go back home to try and fix the situation? Bring some sort of business mentorship program? Try and elevate your people? Or are u busy pumping money into a white economy? Since u ran away who are u expecting will fix your country? This is the problem with Africans
@@nombi1892 this kind of toxic spirit is what's killing Africa, Mr Malulu said until European came we have no countries, Africa is all for black people irrespective of where you're born.
I wish there was a love button! ❤
This man is gifted... he might not be the best businessman alive but definitely the best man for any business... all I here myself say listening to him is “wow”. God bless you
"Hold on to your dream,the world will always conspire to make your dream come true"
Dope, am from the same region as him 😁🇰🇪👊🏾
🇰🇪 Kenya to the world
This man has so much wisdom. Love from KE
