He is the brains behind Supersuccess networks, a force to be reckoned with in transformational speaking... And he is celebrating his birthday along with all the phenomenal women of the land! Here are a few thoughts from the man himself:
Q: You have achieved a lot in a short space of time, how has this impacted on your view on life?
Tumi: All that I have is entrusted to me by God. Not much has changed really, I have always been Supersuccess in my mind, I first had a taste of this concept in my grade 11 at high school and that's a while back!
Q: Your one secret to Supersuccess?
Tumi: Do you really wanna know? Hahaha... God, simple!!
Q: Tell us a little on your growing and how God was part of the picture?
Tumi: Oh man, how do I start? I'll start in Grade 8 (first year of high school) I was what we called the 'nzeni-boy' which loosely translates the boy who sells sweets! I was an entrepeneur already and didn't know it, grew up much quicker than my peers as I believed there just should be more to life beyond the borders of the Vaal! So God had already started preparing me then for what I'm doing now! Grew up knowing that 'I authi iya phanda' (a man seeks hard his resources) and that was what pushed a lot of my ventures! God always had a way of pushing me toward what would eventually grew me! I hated public speaking in high school, only joined in my matric year because seemingly the debate guys got more recognition and street cred! So tried it out and in the same year won my school 3 regional top places and won various other top speaker awards... See what I mean? God!
Q: And what's your wish for this special day?
Tumi: That my presence may be a blessing to another that's all!
Tumi's mother had a few words for this young man: "may you grow bigger my boy! You are now far ahead of most of the people you grew up around, just make sure that as you go further, you respect those at the ground! We'll love you and pray for you!"
