Comments on: The Talented Sharon Rose Revealed! http://africanvibes.com/wordpressnew/2009/06/16/the-talented-sharon-rose-revealed/ Where The World Meets Africa Fri, 27 Apr 2012 10:16:24 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Dwayne Officer http://africanvibes.com/wordpressnew/2009/06/16/the-talented-sharon-rose-revealed/comment-page-1/#comment-607 Dwayne Officer Mon, 23 Nov 2009 16:48:44 +0000 http://africanvibes.com/wordpressnew/?p=4178#comment-607 i dont think that she was talking about earning money in the context that you're thinking! i think what she was trying to say is that there are too many african people out there sitting on their backsides because they want to sell themselves short: either they think they're not good enough or someone out there can do better! THAT is the attitude that holds people back...i also believe that people hide behind the idea that other people are 'ruining africa's progress' and THEY THEMSELVES aren't doing anything to increase africa's progress! i firmly believe that every person has to individually make an effort to bring forward what they can to make our beautiful continent a better place to live for our chldren after us! So as Sharon Rose said when I "realize that there is NO ONE in this world that can do what I can do" then i am able to be a better person, not only for africa's sake, but for the sake of the world! its not about competition...its about realising your potential! i dont think that she was talking about earning money in the context that you’re thinking! i think what she was trying to say is that there are too many african people out there sitting on their backsides because they want to sell themselves short: either they think they’re not good enough or someone out there can do better!

Such win-los thinking fuels jealousy, hatred, anger, revenge and superstitious emotions. These emotions are discouraging/demotivating collaborations amongst/within Africans and their communities. The thinking of being the best you can and developing your skills and know-how in delivering your optimum has been demonstrated by a great artist (Michel Alibo). This thinking has guided Alibo to perform in Over 300 Musical recordings with various artists. Such a repertoire of recordings is an evidence of what fosters Alibo's collaborative skills and know-how. As Michel Alibo expresses it: It is about working to being your best not competing with collaborators and potential collaborators. Bringing out your best Art should be an inspiration. I hope Artists do inspire Africans to collaborating and collaboratively develop their communities, rather than fueling jealousy, hatred, anger, revenge and superstitions.
