Life has taught me that everything is ultimately meaningless. Our existence, our accomplishments, our failures, our petty and great worries, our passions, our experiences.... Everything! All transient and meaningless in the ultimate scheme of things.
This lesson, if internalised, would force you to swallow a massive chill pill.

Chill pill or black pill? Won't this kind of thinking lead some people to Nihilism?

The first sign of healing is pain.
A man is loved twice in his life: when he's born, and when he dies. In between, he learns to manage.

Explain pls.

It comes like a thief in the night. First as a drop, then multiple drops, then flows, then gushes...

If you don't stop it as a drop, you would have a hard time dealing with it as a multiple and so on..


It has the capacity to kill ones confidence, progress and all the things you have attained thus far, totally and without mercy, the moment you let it stay longer than it should.

1) Don't let people praise/hail you unnecessary, they will stop one day thinking that they were doing you a favour. It make them look down on you.
have self confidence of your own.
2) don't force people to love you it make them hate you more. Give them space, compose yourself and show them that you are more matured. The love will come naturally.
nice lesson especially no 2 ...never please anybody after all you can't be friend with everybody.

Yoruba science means going diabolical sometimes, because they are some people you don't know but they know your next move. its either you finish them or they finish you.

If you want to be success, leave your comfort zone, mercy is attained on a journey. Start up with any legal hustle and be nice to people.
I am a living testimony.
comfort zone is a place to b but the funny thing is that nothing g grows there...people are always scared of making hard choices when presented with one.

Never rely or judge on hearsays confirm yourself before winding up (be an audience of both parties)..views are subject to opinions...

Never feel arrived enough not to explore new opportunities.

focus solely on yourself and if you must live a competitive lifestyle..Be your own competitor always striving to be better than you were. Above all be grateful way often than enough...

My understanding of that is: if you want to be successful, put your head down and work hard in silence. When you come up with something remarkable, people will begin to wonder where you've been! Let your achievements make the noise.

I learned further in life a man chooses the woman he wants and a woman's role is to try her best to make sure she is his first choice.

I also learned happiness is a product of one's own doing. We should ensure to make ourselves happy but not at the detriment of others.

Reading a book makes you more interesting an individual. You may read the literature and forget but when a related conversation comes up the memory will spring back to mind like a lost friend.

Good grooming and personal hygiene make one approachable and cut the risk of diseases by up to 30%.

Friends in these modern times are not a necessity but if you see need screen them carefully. Wrongly picked friends are always a personal and/or financial liability.

1. In Nigeria, nothing goes for nothing
2. Aside your mom, dad, wife and kids, no one else truly cares.
3. Don't be too quiet or gentle, people will always step on ur toes and think they can get away with it.
4. Do things discreetly everytime, don't share too much information with people/friends/some relatives
5. Nigerians are not honest. It's a dog eat dog world out there, everyone is looking for money to feed family at ur expense so be smart.
6. Believe in yourself, and put urself first, learn how to manage money, if you go broke nobody will come to your aid.
