I started Grow24-7 in order to share my thoughts, ideas and short experiences on two key areas; Technology and the Human mind. Grow24-7 actually means we as humans have the ability to grow non-stop(24 hours, 7 days) and we must do it consistently to live a happier, peaceful and more prosperous life. By growth, I mean developing the mindset positively and applying that to action. At Grow24-7, we will talk about technologies shaping our world (Programming, Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, Virtual and Augmented Reality), developing the mind and I will share with you books, tools and online educational sites on my recommendation page to further broaden your horizon and grow yourself to be who you want to be. I am passionate about these areas. My mind constantly revolves around them like a ticking clock, clocking on non-stop 😅😅! As you can see from the images above this text, one depicting a growth mindset, so we should grow in life but often time, we are limited by society, friends, family, community and worse of it all, by our very own self and the other which pretty much defines everything about this blog. Both of the images serves as the emblem of this blog. I hope this platform be of a help to you. Technology is one thing that's always growing and updating. We can learn from and apply that growth-like feature of technology, to our lives. That is what this blog would be about. 

I confided with my brother in starting this blog. His name is Mohamed Jalloh, an LLB student at University of Makeni. He is my partner and an author on this blog. He is a brilliant person who is a strong believer of the mind being the key for the path we end up in life. One of his favourite quotes "Whatever way you program your mind, that's the path you're going to follow" and I couldn't agree with him more. I believe in his intellectual prowess and He is going to be a great addition. So feel free to engage with us and we will try our best not to disappoint you.

Thank You!

Insanity and Weirdness; The ingredients to be a success

I was at a pitching event, watching young entrepreneurs pitch their ideas and businesses, and during the Q&A session, the Guest of honor who happens to be a successful entrepreneur was asked, "What do we need to be successful entrepreneurs?", His answer took me by surprise and I was bewildered. His answer was, "To be successful in anything, we need to be insane and weird about what we do". After a while, I started getting all what He meant when He said that. Insanity in a good way(not insanity like a mad or mentally retarded person haha) is actually great. If you have a dream or a passion or a mind blowing idea that you want to embark on, you need to be insane about it. You need to love it, own it, work tirelessly towards achieving it. One need to be insane to do all of that. Most of the time, the people that care too much and working continuously towards their dreams are considered crazy or insane or sometimes weird. These are the people that boldly believ

The Mind; An ability that makes or breaks you

According to wikipedia, "The mind is a set of cognitive faculties including consciousness, perception, thinking, judgement, language and memory. It is usually defined as the faculty of an entity's thoughts and consciousness. It holds the power of imagination, recognition, and appreciation, and is responsible for processing feelings and emotions, resulting in attitudes and actions" . Now, the mind is very complex and there is debate about what constitutes a mind, whether it includes the human spirit and soul, however, I am not going to delve deep into that aspect, and whatever its nature, it is generally agreed that mind is that which enables a being to have subjective awareness and intentionality towards their environment, to perceive and respond to stimuli with some kind of agency, and to have consciousness, including thinking and feeling and act upon those thoughts and feelings. This proves one thing that, we become who we are because of our mindset; what we think
