He actually thinks and believe that he's making sense, but he's not.

He's talking utter rubbish.

If you can think it,you can be it ,fact.

By thinking alone, is the way of the manufacturer telling you that that's what you're.

Think it ,believe it and be it.

Simple.

This guy is unserious.
The same bible he quoted says in philippians 4 vs 16 that we can do all things through christ Jesus who strengthens us.
Here is my opinion.
We are the result of our actions and thoughts.
Even the creature comforts he's enjoying mostly were made by the atheists.
Bible is spiritual. And spiritual assignment was God referring to in the case of Jeremiah.

One Nigeria problem is English, The word “can” is not an assurance word, it simply means there is a probability in the situation.... No one said “u will be, they said u can be” so there is no sense in what this dude is saying, “Can” here simply means e fit happen and e fit no happen atleast try.... it not guarantee u will find all u seek, but atleast u can’t find what u did not seek.... If not for some of this motivational quotes so many suicidal and depression case for don plenty in this word... pls stop killing other people’s vibe on motivational quotes cuz e didn’t work for u, it works for some atleast till they are fully out of depress states of mind...
its a positive word...there's no two ways about it. Stop twisting English language to suit your assertions.

Cantonese:


The word “can” used in this context infers possibility and not “probability”. If you prefer to describe it as “probability” then “may” is the right word. May is “e fit happen e no fit happen”, quoting you now.

When the word “can” is used, then there is a certain air of confidence surrounding the user that it is possible. If it is possible, then there is a certain “assurance”, quoting you once again.
probability and possibility are synonyms. Both mean degree of outcomes.

Popular Nollywood Actor, Williams Uchemba, has taken to his social media page to share his opinion on being motivated by the famous quote ‘you can be whatever you want to be’.

According to the Actor, that saying has led many to an early grave.

His post on Instagram reads ;

He doesn't even make sense. Reading the manual he talked about is akin to people figuring out their lives except that there are no manuals to read. In products, you can call up the manufacturer directly and get definitive answers. Can you call up God to get answers without passing through middlemen who will hustle you for cash? Then I remember that he is talking to Nigerians. Even if it doesn't make sense, throw God in the mix and they will applaud and nod heads in agreement.

You can be anything you want to be opens up possibilities and is not the same as you must be anything you want to be.

This is the most misleading article ever, first of all you don’t compare humans with objects. Secondly you can actually be whatever you wanna be. Just try and put in the effort even if u don’t become that exact thing , you can be close to it. For example do u think is all musicians that know how to sing? Most of them have backup singers in the background. Is AY really funny as a comedian? But he is a comedian . God gave us huge potentials. It’s up to us to try! If you nor try Wetin you gain

AY knew his jokes are not funny that's why he introduced stand up comedy.

He didn't force himself to be like I GO DYE or listen to motivatioal speakers that he can actually crack jokes

Sometimes I wonder how these so called celebrity thinks , I have seen someone post this on their status today and was wondering wtf! Comparing a sofa and fridge to creation . Let’s get this straight here’s what I advised the individual who bought into what Uchemba wrote

You are not a product ! You actually can be what you wanna be ! Same bible said ‘ ye are god’s’ also said I have made you master over everything on earth ‘ also in creation said ‘ come let’s make man in our own image ‘ so dear you are the image of a creator in orders words you are a creator !

The problem here is people do things same way over and over again expecting different result , it doesn’t work !

You can be what you wanna be is 100% right
But people live in fear of the unknown here’s what I mean .
Quit that job if it doesn’t make you happy
Leave that Town for another if you don’t feel fulfilled
Quit that relationship if you are not happy

One thing constant in life is CHANGE !
Note : I’m not a Motivational speaker !

YOU GOT IT WRONG TOO!

WE ARE ALWAYS SURROUNDED BY EVERYTHING WE NEED TO SUCCEED AT EVERY POINT IN TIME.

#FACTS

AND AS FOR EVERY SITUATION IN LIFE GIVE THANKS FOR IT'S FOR A GOOD REASON.

I NO FIT FORGET HOW I TAKE DEY CRY WHEN I DEY DO FACTORY WORK AS A GRADUATE ENGINEER.

BUT NOW I THANK GOD FOR MAKING ME WORK IN THAT FACTORY.

I BECAME STRONG AND LEARNED A LOT OF THINGS THAT I AM USING TO SURVIVE TODAY.

I GREW PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY BUT WHEN I WAS DOING IT I WAS VERY ANHRY AT GOD.

WE HUMANS LACK WISDOM AND THAT IS WHAT IS KILLING US ALL.

THE PASTORS ARE BUSY COLLECTING TITHE FROM STUPID CHRISTIANS WITHOUT OUT GIVING THEM LIFE SAVING TRUTHS.

MANY PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD BOTH THE POOR AND RICH ARE LIVING IN DEPRESSION AND MOST ARE MAD.

BECAUSE WE LACK WISDOM WHICH IS DIVINE UNDERSTANDING OF LIFE AND THE REALITY OF LIFE.

I don't take anything put out on social media message boards because insecure, depression people always use their message boards to console themselves.

Why can't I be anything I wanna be? Who says I can't be anything I wanna be?
Since I was a kid I have had flair and dream to become a computer software and hardware engineer and am living it.

Who says I can't motivate a kid or my kid and look him/her in the eye and say: " you can be what ever you want to be, kiddo".

Most people with financial freedom and satisfaction have that because they strive to become what ever they like to become and living it.

Just because that actor resort to become an actor and it didn't work out for him doesn't mean it isn't working for others.

The guy is absolutely right with what he said.
Because people denote the literal meaning (verb), meaning there's no impossibility to what you can be.

Talk, people say, is cheap, especially when you believe you have succeeded. A lot of people tried, worked hard, yet never succeeded, what do you make of this? It's only God that knows the mysteries of this world.
