A billion-dollar idea | Ssemugoma Francisco

Writer: Bespoke DiariesBespoke Diaries


This testimony of mine is set to sharpen your attitude, such that it becomes a positive attitude. It’s your attitude that determines your altitude in life. People with a positive attitude, those who are optimistic, they see an opportunity in every problem or challenge, however, people with a negative attitude, those who are pessimistic, always see a problem in every opportunity.


When you read this testimony, at the point when others see half empty, you will be seeing half full. If you have a billion-dollar idea, don’t deviate from it no matter the circumstances, stick to it, time comes when that idea will materialize no matter how long it takes.


In the year 2008, after I had completed my Bachelors in Mass Communication, I got the idea of putting all the knowledge I have in the booking form and thus I began the journey of writing. I wrote my first book titled, “The one I love”, however, I didn’t have the resources to publish it because the publishers asked of me 7000 US Dollars which I did not have, I decided to keep my book on my email.


In 2009, I wrote another book and still I had the limitation of funds to publish it, so I

Kept it on my email too. In 2015, I got another book idea and it was about the history of Christianity in my Country Uganda, I thus began on the journey of inquiring from the few eyewitnesses of the trend of events of the history of Christianity in Uganda, I continued with that book project for 2 years and also supplemented on it the information about the general history of Christianity. I read a number of books and did a lot of research.


When I was about to finalize it, in April 2017, a Certain Pastor in Uganda called Aloysius Bugingo, commanded that all English Bible Versions should be burnt because they are faulty. He began to question the use of the word Holy Ghost in the King James Version and he questioned why some scriptures in the Bible were omitted from the main text and instead inserted in the footnotes.


He used his media such as Salt radio and Salt TV, to mobilize masses to burn Bibles. There was no one in Uganda informed enough to counteract his claims. However, since I had done a lot of research concerning the history of Christianity, I was given a platform on all Ugandan media and I counteracted his claims, I educated the masses concerning those facts.


A media personnel called Aloysius Matovu together with Counsel Anthony Wameri, teamed up with me and we sued the notorious pastor in the courts of Law and thus he stopped the habit of commanding people to burn Bibles.


Through that dramatic incident, I received a lot of media attention and published that book titled “THE MARCH TO GLORY: CHURCH HISTORY IN GENERAL AND UGANDA IN PARTICULAR”, the sales were overwhelming, in 2018, I decided to publish it on Amazon, I published all other books I had written before on Amazon and even wrote new books such as, “Understanding the Spiritual Gates” which is my best seller on Amazon.


In 2020 during the Lockdown, I started translating my books on Amazon to different international languages such as, Germany, Italy, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Hindu, Arabic, Chinese, Guajarati, Hindu, Dutch, Japan, and Chinese among other languages.


I am currently earning from all corners of the Earth and in different currencies.

So don’t lose hope on your dream, keep on chasing it, it will come to pass one day,

Stick to that million-dollar idea, don’t deviate from it.


Don’t let your current state determine your future, keep pushing on. Whatever has a beginning must have an end! Every problem has got an expiry date!

Life is in Chapters, when one chapter closes, another one opens!

When you aim at nothing, you hit nothing.

You don’t need a title to do great things.

The greatest ability is stickability!


Decisions decide seasons in life, the seasons keep changing due to the quality decisions we make. Failure is not failure, it’s discovering a wrong way of doing something.

Each time you fail, you gain experience. Never cry for the missed opportunity because the one God is about to unveil is better than the one you missed!


Prudent people don’t take a No for a No, but articulate it and find the positivity out of it! No value can be attached to anything if is got on a silver plate! Every person is door, the way you handle them determines your success in life! Everything is difficult before it becomes easy! When preparation meets with opportunity, the result is called favor! If you believe it, you can have it!

There can never be a testimony without a test! It doesn’t matter how you start, it matters how you finish.


If you are willing to go the extra mile, you will create an impact. The law of attraction! If u want something, make it your song, it will locate you! There is a day when you look for your troubles and you can hardly find them! A bright future is always based on the forgotten past!

There is no limit to anyone who has decided to go forward! Your gift can take you to great places, but it's your character that keeps you there!


If you develop people, people will develop you! If you want to fundraise, friendrise! There are four types of people i.e. The vision bearers, vision supporters, vision killers and vision stealers! So, mind about who you tell about your vision! Don’t mention failure in the days of your victory.


We need to think straight in this twisted world! You cant know how much you can do until you are in the trying moment! Failure is the price of greatness! Each time you fail, you gain experience! Failure precedes success! You are not a failure because you failed, but you are a failure if you don’t try again! Prudent people begin their success where most others quit! Whatever you do outside love doesn't yield ultimate results! It's what you have when put to use that propels you to your next level! Your enemies are not walls, but they are gates to your next season!
