1. Love and honor your mother. Learn from her
mistakes. It will save you a lot of headache in your 30s and beyond.

2. You are more talented than you’ll ever know. You
don’t need to sleep with your Boss/ supervisor to
get a promotion at work or better grades at school.
Burn late night candles; put extra time to study
and practice until you master your skill. Hard work
still pays well and does not kill.

3. Women can build a strong support network.
Don’t let few ladies with “Pull Her Down” {PHD}
syndrome discourage you from cultivating true
relationship with your female friends.

4. When a man you meet for the first time babbles
about how much he earns working for an oil
company and how rich he is, that is a red flag. He
is either a married smooth-talker who just wants to
sleep with you or he is childish. Walk away from
deceit.

5. Make your own money. Start small. Maintain a
stable bank account. It will keep you out of trouble.

6. When you meet your Soul mate, don’t forget to
wear your most priceless ornament- submission
and humility. But while waiting for him, don’t cling
to any man to rescue you. Some men these days
are also seeking for who will rescue them.

7. Know your body. Look at yourself in front of a
full-length mirror at least once a week, naked and
after clothed. Know your body and how it works.
Keep it neat always

8. Teenage life ended at 19. Clocking 20 means
doing away with childish behaviour. But it does not
mean you should forget to have fun. You can catch
fun and not be dirty.

9. Learn the basic skills and let yourself grow- from
how to keep your underwear clean, cook, socialize,
and network to how to drive a car.

10. Don’t do drugs. It kills. Read books, it fortifies.
Dance as often as you can, it liberates your spirit,
soul and body.

11. Eat healthy. Learn to cook for yourself. Don’t
rely on noodles alone. The cooking skill will be
useful in future.

12. Don’t give up when you fail. Try again and
again. Don’t give up on education/ learning.

13. Fear of the future. It is a state of mind you
must learn to tame. Don’t let fear pull the carpet
from under your feet. The Holy Books tells us that
God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power,
love and a sound mind.

14. Let go of past hurts. You cannot move forward
if you keep looking back. Holding on to bitter
experiences and regrets will stale your future.

15. Learn to exhale, love deeply and be kind to
others. Live ur life and be happy

16. You are beautiful the way you are. Don’t
compare yourself to others.

17. Prayer is the master key. Have faith in God and
always have the courage to use your voice wisely.
Dream big today. Enjoy the highs and lows that
come with being in your 20s but don’t be afraid to
grow older. Live life to the fullest and don’t forget
to smile always!

Wishing you all a great week ahead!
