If you only know how to pick stones, make a nice stone-picker, wear good clothes and get to work. Thinking someone will just handover the golden plates of progress to you for free; it’ll never happen. Brothers, our helpers are the reflections in the side mirror, when we decide to stop working; we’ll be stopping them too. So our expectation from men is a mirage, why not focus then. Fellow mortals, there’s no better helper than saving yourself from squatting on the roadside. Tho not everyone has the same opportunity or the key to that door, if you dont have the key, join me as we’ll be breaking it, we need to hammer in-hand. Transferred wealth is cool (wish my dad will tell me soon that i have 1billion naira in a secret account), but an eagle that grew up in a zoo will always think soaring is a disease and will never even try flying but stay grounded with the big wings . Watch! For the let-them-see-me type; the acrobatic fish in the morning will be in the cheap pepper soup in the evening. Calm down! For the reckless spender – ‘Mr Nawo Nawo’; the fun-loving deer in the jungle will soon taste its own blood. Save! For the sluggard; the cockroach that doesn’t know when to roam or when to sleep will be a bird’s breakfast. Wake! For people looking for shortcuts; the chick that wants to fly on time will end up flying with the hawk. Work! In conclusion Brethren, Start and create something - Be wanted, dont be a Shakespeare's son that has the world and words close but no saying in history. Survive! Better to be true to the grind than on a garri+groundnut-at-home business class just because of a selfie. The plane (life) is not going to land anyway-we can’t survive the crash. What you have behind speaks, the treasures or is it just that selfie (now in a frame) with two burning candles. If you only know how to pick stones, make a nice stone-picker, wear good clothes and get to work. Work!!! Instagram: @iammrolu @mroluofficial Facebook: www.fb.com/mroluofficial 07087810105
