Introduction
Background
The other day I went into a search mode about the octopus. A slimy
8-legged creature is what I visualized it to be based on my primary
school teaching. I actually realized they are arms and legs hence the
generalized term of appendages.
The octopus struck me for its great features
Eight arms
Three hearts
Developed brain
Camouflage ability
Cutting of its appendages
Sticky appendages
Only one bone in its body
The inspiration behind this e-book does not seek to increase your
scientific knowledge of the octopus. God inspired the writing of this
e-book so that we may relate the features of this magnificent creature
to our entrepreneurial selves, our businesses and subsequently,
ourselves to the nature of our maker, God in Heaven.
Isn’t it amazing that God did not create anything that has two heads?

Merging the Octopus and the Entrepreneur
A lot of people have the idea of being free from a job and so they
capitalize on the self employment and business ownership channels.
For some this continues to be a distant dream that cannot be because
of a million and one reasons. For those who dare go for the dream,
much is required of them.
I remember when one of my mentors started his business. I was
young in age but I distinctly remember him working out of a small
room that was the size of a hostel cubicle. Yet from that small room,
he developed designs and decorations that took him to trade shows
and fairs across the country. On the road of setting up his business, he
put on many hats – designer, driver, technician, managing director,
business partner and so much more. He had to bear insults, praises,
demotivating speeches, undercuts from competitors, losses to
unscrupulous partners and even attempts on his life.
Today, he stands tall with his multimillion shilling business in Kenya,
and within East Africa. He found his calling and he grew in it,
learning the ropes and teaching them to his wife, children and family
members that would have the interest. He reaps from the simple
element of being an Octopus Entrepreneur.

Two arms, six appendages
Artist, biologist, astronomer, geographer, farmer, manager, creator, beginner,
finisher, landscaper … name it, He is the best at it and He has got it all together
(The Bible, Genesis Chapter 1 & 2)
ntrepreneurship is a strange world to be in. what however is
lovely about it is that the epitome of entrepreneurship is best
captured in the creation story. God put an order into His creation.
Before bringing animals into the world, God made sure there was
vegetation. Before He created man to have dominion over the earth
and its components, He made sure there was a separation between
the heavens and the earth. With this entire grand plan and so many
tasks, God had to wear many hats. He knew the chemical balance in
the animal bodies, the need for water to grow vegetation and even the
value of the different gases in the atmosphere. He also knew about
rest.
Entrepreneurs need to put on God’s shows – see the end picture, then
come back to the beginning to start putting it all together. For
instance, one who is thinking of investing in buses for long distance
travel, (s) he does not think of only one bus at the time of
conceptualizing the business; (s) he first sees a fleet of buses then
begins to think of how one can turn into ten.

Whilst engaging in entrepreneurship, the God way, individuals must
realize that there is a lot to be done, and some may be done through
other people. The bottom line will be to engage in a psychological
transformation into the octopus with the eight appendages.
When God created the Octopus, He must have known that the
creature needed a well developed brain to manage the eight
appendages otherwise it would tie itself in knots (quite literally). In
my research, I did seek for any one instance of an octopus tying itself up.
Anyhow, the eight work in perfect coordination.
You are an octopus entrepreneur once you develop your God-given 8
appendages
You
create a business
from nothing
manage people
Manage your brand/
product/ service
manage customers
keep nasty competition
at bay
keep good competition
close
Family and Friends

All these while ensuring you still have what has come to be famously
known as work-life balance! – It simply calls for God’s grace.
Supernatural grace is what keeps the 8 appendages working to your advantage
While swimming in the underwater world, the octopus trails its
eight behind it. Never is it the other way around. As a successful
octopus entrepreneur, you need to learn to swim with your eight
behind you; i.e. you are leading with your head because that is where
your sight is at. Imagine if you jumped into a pool to swim with your
legs and hands in front of you; or what would happen if you got stuck
in a hole and the only loose end is your head. What would provide the
physical means of disentangling you?
As an entrepreneur your assignment is not one. You need to be an
octopus entrepreneur who, when one arm is trying to develop a
competitive product, the other arm is busy recruiting loyal team
members, another arm is building a profitable customer base, another
is effectively managing competition, and another is creating a balance
between your business and the community in which you operate; yet
another is balancing between the business, you and your family/
friends.

3-Hearted Entrepreneur
Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also – Jesus Christ
(The Bible, Matthew 6:21)
Couldn’t put it any better than Christ did. Research on the
octopus indicates that it has 3 hearts which pump blood to
specific parts of the body. The three hearts ensure its survival and
without one, it is as good as dead.
For the entrepreneur, anything less than three “hearts” guarantees
failure, non-achievement of set goals, stagnation and mediocrity. The
entrepreneurs 3 “hearts” are visualized below:
Soul
Heart
Mind
I
10
Allow me to take you back to the creation story. After He had created
everything, God looked and saw that it was good (Genesis chapter 1).
When creating, God was wholly involved in His and His heart.
When it came to creating man in His own image, He not only did it
the way He had done the rest of the creation, this one, He called
Himself, Christ the Son and the Holy Spirit, (Trinity), all of whom
make up God. He wanted His image and when He was done, another
look at the complex creation and He saw it was very good.
Every business venture requires the entrepreneur’s heart, soul and
mind.
The heart embodies a passion that cannot be denied.
A passion that allows you to:
work tirelessly even when the revenues/ cash flows are nil or
going towards negative, as you await a turnaround moment
weather all the negative comments over why you will not succeed
in business
weather the storm when everything seems to be going wrong
encourage and support your staff, partners and associates with no
reservations, seeking the best for each of them.
The soul is what gives life to the business. It is the essence of being alive as a
business entity.
11
Without a soul, your business is an empty shell. An empty shell is an
opportunity for every negative, life sucking thing to inhabit your
business.
It is a business that has a soul, which has a strong mission and
purpose. It is the eternal nature of the soul that allows one to live
beyond the physical world. So it is in business.
The soul that an entrepreneur gives to his business allows that
enterprise to:-
coin and live a mission beyond the first ten years of existence/
operations
exist for more than monetary gains. While the essence of business
is to make money, the soul enables it to make that money from
and give back to its source – the people who and the environment
which consists its existence.
be one that creates generational wealth. Have you ever seen those
businesses which are called something like Jack & Brothers Co
Ltd or Richard & Sons or Berkeley & Berkeley Investments? A
dig through such may reveal generations that at one time or
another ran the enterprise for years and years. That’s what a
business with a soul tends to look like.
The mind is the house for the vision.
12
A man without a vision is living one day at a time, taking in whatever
life has to offer. So it is with a business enterprise without a mind. It
has no vision, no possibility of greatness, no chance of living beyond
survival. Chances of its operations going beyond the first five years
are very slim.
The business mind:
embraces the passion of the heart and spirit in the soul, to drive
the business ahead.
provides fertile ground for healthy business risks
provides a safety net and cushion to break a would be nasty fall
when things go awry
provides a balance for the heart and soul to avoid extremist
activities and actions bordering on the fanatical

The brain @ the top of the body
So built we the wall; and all the wall was joined together unto the half thereof; for
the people had a mind to work
(The Bible, Nehemiah 4:6)
was not a really smart student of biology despite my deep
desire and efforts to pass the subject so as to improve my
overall grade (not a very good reason). However the subject of
the brain really interested me. This was especially after watching
drama movies whose characters were at times considered brain dead.
The brain is a critical element of the human body or any living
creature such as the octopus. Again, you can’t help but marvel at
God’s ingenious nature and knowledge to create a brain. Did you
know that an octopus is intelligent enough to hold a closed can with
one of its arms while trying to pry it open with another arm?
Scientific studies of some of the octopus species have shown that the
octopus has a high level of intelligence.
And why not? The animal has to single handedly (no pun intended)
manipulate all eight appendages, it has to determine in a dangerous
situation, whether to camouflage or cut of its arm (see later chapters).

An octopus entrepreneur ensures that he has a brain to keep the
enterprise alive as well as create, sustain and regenerate the life
substance (brain) of the business. It is what some governments refer
to as the kitchen cabinet; conglomerates use the word think tank. For
SMEs, it is simply the brain of the business. As depict
Kiyosaki’s book, Before you Quit Your Job, 10 things every entrepreneur should
know, a business enterprise consists of eight key elements (not
necessarily in order of importance)

only do this courtesy of the brain.

If God put a brain in an octopus, how about us, who were created in
His own image? This is my thought process – if we are in the image of
God, then He must have a brain. His brain must have been very handy
in the creation of the earth and the heavens. Now, if my Maker has
such a beautiful, creative, intelligent brain, what about me, who He
created in His own likeness? All I have to do is stay connected to my
Maker and my octopus entrepreneur mind will do great exploits and
can co-ordinate a think tank for my enterprise.

approve what God’s will is – His good, pleasing and perfect will

Camouflage – Blend and grow
Therefore Jesus no longer moved about publicly among the Jews…
(The Bible, John 11: 54)
t was amazing to discover that when the octopus is in
danger and unable to take flight, it will release some liquid
from its body (like ink) or it will make itself look like its
surroundings – such as the coral, star fish, algae or jelly fish. The prey
is then confused over where the octopus has gone to. All this to
protect itself and ensure its life goes on.
When his life was almost at its pinnacle here on earth, Christ faced
the threat of death at the hands of the Jews who saw Him as a liar and
the enemy because He proclaimed the Kingdom of God and not what
the religious doctrines had stuck to. Knowing full well on the timings
of His death, the gospel of John chapter 11 in the Bible indicates that
Jesus grew very careful about mingling with people. And he was very
successful. During one of the feasts in which the Pharisees saw as a
perfect opportunity to seize Him, He turned up looking like one of
the people in the crowd. He stayed unseen until He got to the fore
front where He started speaking much to the amazement of the
people. I imagine some had waited at the main entrance of the venue
from the beginning of the festival hoping to catch Jesus. As such,
18
seeing Him up there was not only annoying but a shame for their lack
of vigilance.
An octopus entrepreneur needs to camouflage in the business world. “Blend and grow” would be the logic behind the camouflage
When Bill Gates presented his Microsoft idea to IBM back in the
days, he was dismissed; but he continued and went on to implement.
Am sure the management of IBM have always regretted. Camouflage
means working your magic under wraps. Your competition is always
looking at your next move or idea so that he can implement before
you. The foolish entrepreneur does it all out there not knowing that
someone can pick the idea and implement it better than they can.
An octopus entrepreneur is different. By the time the competition
knows what you are up to, the idea is usually well under
implementation and they can only but try to copy it for themselves.
Camouflage means blending with fellow entrepreneurs. Not
necessarily in the same field; but ensuring they are people you can
learn from. Learning through mentorship and coaching, networking
sessions, seminars and conferences. It cannot be stressed ever more
deeply, how important blending is. You learn
What you are going through as tough has a solution
What others do to get affordable financing

What others do for team building

Which markets to venture into and a host of other lessons
Camouflage is all about calmness. It is the wisest man to walk on
the face of the earth that said “calmness can lay great errors to rest” (The
Bible, Ecclesiastes 10:4). I couldn’t agree more. When the octopus
entrepreneur is camouflaging, he is careful which feathers to ruffle, so
as not wake sleeping giants. It is in calmness that one thinks clearly
and strategically about the business in its current state and the
future.
The business world can be pretty nasty. Not much provocation of
giants is required for them to quash an octopus entrepreneur. They
will seek to slander you, buy you off, run you out of business or even
copy your originality and promote it as theirs because of their muscle.
That is why your 8 appendages and brain as an octopus entrepreneur
(previous chapters) needs to be well developed.

Cut off time
What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit his very
self? - Chris
(The Bible Luke 9:25)
id you know that the octopus can cut off one of its
appendages and it will grow right back? It will usually do
this to escape danger. Like when it is running from an
attacker and one of its appendages gets stuck, it cuts off that one. The
predator is then left with the arm or goes on chasing after the arm
instead of the octopus.
For an octopus entrepreneur there are two scenarios for cutting off an
appendage or two. These however should not be mistaken for giving
up.
1st – when a deal or direction you are taking shows signs of regret,
corruption, negative publicity and anything else that would bring
shame to you as a person, and your enterprise; or something that
would not stand upright in the presence of God.
2nd – when all other options of going forward are exhausted and there
is no more opportunity. Giving up is simply refusing to fight anymore
22
despite the fact that you still have the ability to press on some more
and there are opportunities for success.
Giving up is downright sinful for the octopus entrepreneur
Let us examine the two scenarios
Cut off for a comeback
The story of the prodigal son is not new. A young man requested his
rich father for his share of inheritance then he left for the great city.
There he squandered it all and eventually became a lowly employee
taking care of pigs. At the very worst of moments, he reached the
point of saying “enough is enough, am going home.” That was his cut-
off point. His father’s servants were having a better life than him. In
his thinking, he arrived at the conclusion that even if he would not be
regarded as a son, at least he could settle for servant hood.
Every business faces a cut-off point more than once in its existence,
and so does the entrepreneur. It is the octopus entrepreneur,
however, who exercises his ability to cut-off one appendage so as not
to lose the whole body. It may be a franchise deal you have pursued
for a long time. After so many negotiations, you extend your hand and
tell the franchisor, “it’s been nice knowing you ladies and gentlemen”
and you walk out the door knowing the papers will never be signed.
That’s your cut-off point. The octopus entrepreneur will brood for one
23
hour and after that your think tank comes alive to generate a concept
that may lead you to another franchisor in the same industry but with
a better product/ franchise deal. That’s your come back!
Cut off for a rebirth
What would happen to an octopus entrepreneur’s business interests
if they fell through for one reason or the other? (S) he would find a
way to rebuild from dust.
In the old testament of the Bible (Numbers 10:11-14:45), the Israelites
were to enter the promised land of Canaan. God instructed Moses to
send out spies who did not give a very good report except for two
men (Caleb and Joshua). This negative report caused the Israelites to
start murmuring against Moses and God. God was not amused and
He got to His cut-off point. He condemned them to wander in the
desert for 40 years. In essence, He shed off a generation that simply
angered and treated Him with contempt. In those 40 years, a new
generation formed and it is this one that entered Canaan under the
leadership of Joshua. Even Moses (though for a different reason,
disobedience) did not enter the Promised Land. He was a faithful
servant of God, who had face to face conversations with the
Almighty, yet he saw it from afar, sitting on a mountain top.
24
Rebirth is a process which calls for the complete death of the old. Just
like a newborn is a whole entity on its own with no roots in another
body, so is rebirth. A new entity that does not have the blemishes of
the past.
In business, rebirth and cut-off points can be painful and devastating.
Watching everything you have built come to a grinding halt or
tumbling down is not easy. Worst of all is knowing that you have to
start all over again from scratch

25
Handling cut-off like an octopus entrepreneur
Cut-off for a comeback or for a rebirth must not be a single event. It
should be a process characterized by firm changes over time. It is
while your curve is on the upward trend that a cut-off should be
considered and a new curve started, Fig. 1
If the cut-off point is put off, two things are bound to happen. One,
the growth will reach its peak and flatten out. Two, once flat, it is
only a matter of time before it starts taking a dip, Fig. 2. Cut-off at
Cut-off
Fig 2: Worst business curve Time
Progress
26
either of these two points is the worst because it seems like starting
all over again.
Cut-off point in the mind of the entrepreneur exists even before the
curve starts growing. So how does one handle cut-off points?
a) Build it into the strategic plan
Dreaming big about your enterprise will help you achieve this. If
you are running a grocery shop, consider issues such as – what if
your customer base was so wide and so loyal to you that you have
a self service store with a wider range of products?
Cut-off point: atop having a shop keeper mentality!
If you are carving curios for sales in the retail market to tourists,
what happened to you when the industry goes into a slump?
Cut-off point: stop retail business and seek wholesales business
abroad courtesy of technological advances such as Facebook,
Twitter, e-bay, Amazon etc
b) Have a strong mission
Football is all about scoring goals. It doesn’t matter whether you
use the left leg, head, chest or kick with your ankle, as long as you
do it in the designated areas. The bottom line is you follow the
rules and score the goals.
So it is for your business. If your goal is to make money, as long as
you are playing by the rules, you can do anything. A holding
27
company can be in the vehicle industry, food, pharmaceuticals or
telecommunication industries all at the same time. Cut-off points
can bring about a diversified portfolio which can only be
sustained by a strong mission
c) Stay informed
Knowing your industry, products and customers will help you
identify when to cut off.
The bottom line is that knowing when to let go and why, gives the octopus
entrepreneur an edge to reestablish/ reaffirm his/ her presence in the business

Proverbs 12:28 – Solomon
In the way of righteousness there is life, along that path is immortality

Sticking to it
Naked I came from my mother’s womb and naked I will depart. The Lord gave and
the Lord has taken away, may the Name of the Lord be praised
… shall we accept good from God and not trouble?
The Bible (Job 1:20, 2:10)
hen researching on the octopus, I laughed at one
description of the inner side of the appendages. They are
lined with some sticky substance that allows the
octopus to hold many things under the arms. The write was likening
it to a woman who is trying to balance shopping bags under her arms.
What made me laugh was the image of an octopus in high heels
leaving the shopping mall with bags under six arms.
Thinking about it, I realized that this is a great feature for the octopus
entrepreneur. Every day you get exposed to so much information,
ideas and people. It is the ability to attach the relevant to yourself
that allows you to accumulate much resource to run your enterprise
effectively. In addition to amassing the resources, this feature of
allows you to hold on and keep up a fight worth having.
A read through the book of Job in the Bible reveals that Job was a man
faithful to God. He lost everything yet he maintained his faithfulness
to God. Even at the very worst of times when he couldn’t understand
29
how even though he had remained blameless, upright, shunning evil
and fearing God, he was suffering great loss, he still confessed God’s
awesomeness
The Octopus entrepreneur needs to be like these men of old, who
knew their purpose and believed God with no wavering. Joseph, still
in the Bible, with all his trouble of being sold into slavery by his
brothers and being jailed wrongfully, refused to sin by complaining or
murmuring. At the end of it all he was raised to the level of Prime
Minister in Egypt. He stuck to his purpose. Shadrack, Meshack and
Abednego refused to worship any other God. They were even thrown
into a fire to burn. They suffered through their dedication to worship
the One True God but they refused to change. Eventually God came
through for them. So it is in business
There is always a price to pay for refusing to let go and sticking to your guns. There
is also a great reward for the ability to stick.
You need to stick to the worthy fight. For instance a dream client you
have always wanted to have, you need to do everything possible
(legal/ moral of course) to get them. Even if they say no fifty nine
times, it is on the sixtieth that they will say yes. And even if they
don’t stick to them and pray until they come on board.
Key elements for sticking to it include:
30
Prayer: nothing works quite like this
Ability to bounce back from failure or rejection
Ability to reinvent yourself and the business
Believing in the goal to be achieved
Working single-mindedly towards your mission

1 Corinthians 9:26
Therefore do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body, and make it my slave so that after I have preached to
others, I myself will not be disqualified from the prize
31
Malleability
He who ignores discipline comes to poverty and shame, but whoever heeds correction is honored
The Bible - Proverbs 13:18
iven that it only has one bone, an octopus is certainly
very flexible and malleable. For that reason, it can go
through the narrowest spaces as it swims in the water
along the sea or ocean bed
Malleability is not a feature you can remove from business.
Sometimes you make mistakes and you have to change the direction
you were taking. Sometimes you may hit a hurdle that you can only
go around it. Sometimes the business environment simply forces you
to change.
Rigidity in business is lethal, especially in the 21st century where
technology is changing daily. Look at newspapers and magazines. For
years sales of printed copies have been a major source of revenue for
the printing and publishing houses. Today with the Apple iPad and
Amazon Kindle as well as the World Wide Web, the revenue base is
changing. If your newspaper, magazine, newsletter or book is not
online, there is a great market you have not captures
32
There is a way that seems right to a man but it leads to death. A simple man
believes anything, but a prudent man gives thought to his steps - Proverbs 14:12, 15
An artist who insists on displaying and selling his artworks in a
physical gallery, out to consider an online art exhibition using flash
technology on a website, online auction for pieces of art, facebook
and/ or other social and business networking sites. A farmer who
relies on the old farming technologies needs to get online to see the
latest advancements in farming technology. A student in mass
communication who one day hopes to own and manage a production
house can revolutionize their dream by shooting local videos and
sharing them on YouTube as often as possible to simply create a name
and command a following.
Malleability creates grounds for self improvement, business
development, innovation and thinking out of the proverbial box. Not
to be confused with being swayed by every blowing wind,
malleability allows you to remain focused on your ultimate goal but
open to diversity and different ways of doing things.
