Never respond to those who criticize your looks. God is your Manufacturer. Your Manufacturer will defend His product.


You have control over your character, but God has control of your looks, gender, race and the time, date and place of your birth.

Ladies,

Never let your age define your value. Don’t listen to those who say you have no value because you are 40 and unmarried. You are a woman. A woman is a refined man. You are like wine. The older wine gets, the more valuable it becomes!

Ants will always be attracted to sugar, but they also leave when they have finished the sugar. Be wise. Don't marry a human ant.

A person who will only stay married to you while you are sweetly buoyant, and will walkout when you are bitterly broke.

Many illiterates are richer than professors because what you know is not as important as what you do with what you know.


Similarly, if hard work automatically led to wealth, laborers will be billionaires. Smart work, not hard work, is key to wealth.

The end result of education is not to speak good English. The end result is to increase your productivity.

Yes, your English is good. But, is your productivity good? A wealthy and productive dropout is more relevant than a broke, unproductive PhD.

Learn to be comfortable with silence. Don’t feel awkward in moments of silence that you say something to end the silence.

That is when you say things you later deeply regret. If the silence is bothering you, play with your phone, or simply leave!

You dont remember your spare tyre out of love. You remember it because one of your 4 main tyres is punctured.


Anyone who calls out of the blues, then talks to you for 10 minutes, before suddenly remembering a request has found their spare tyre: YOU

Success is subjective. Don’t allow society, parents, or peers, define it for you. Define your success and decide how you are going to achieve it.


When you achieve it, those who define success will update their dictionary to accommodate your success.

What will people say? What will people think? Those words make people take very poor choices.


The sad thing is that people will still say what they want. Just do what is right before God’s eyes and your sight, because they will still talk about you.

You will spend an average of 8 days working for about 40 years, So you better ensure you get a job or business you like, otherwise, you will hate your life.

That is why I encourage people to use their talents to create their perfect job or business.

Money is not something you just PRAY for, or something you WISH for, or something you FAST for.


God gave you a brain and 2 hands so you can MAKE money. If in the process of making money you encounter problems, then your prayers will move mountains.

You cant find opportunity in yesterday. Opportunity begins with o, and o exists only in today and tomorrow.


Don’t regret the failures of your past. Prepare for the successes in your future. Change your understanding of NO to mean Next Opportunity.

You dont have to remain poor. There are things you can do to escape poverty. Eg, there is ALWAYS a market for meat.


Buy a hen or a goat. It will give birth. Let its offsprings grow. Sell them and gradually escape poverty. Often, poverty is a choice.

The best teacher I ever had are ants. The work HARD. They work SMART. They work TOGETHER. And because of these 3 traits, they never go hungry.


Learn from ants and you too will never suffer lack in life. Money follows smart hard work like its shadow.

If your phone doesn’t update its settings regularly, it will crash. Updates are necessary because knowledge is not static.


You will crash in life if you stop reading after you graduate. Update your knowledge regularly by reading and you wont crash.

Dont go into business where the money is. Go into business where your talents and life purpose are.


You‘ll have to work like a dog to even compete in an area where the money is. But even if you play in your area of strength, you‘ll still make money.

Success depends on how you see yourself. Don't wait for others to love you, love yourself first.


Walk into a room and be so in love with yourself and everyone in the room will either love you, or love to be you, or hate you because they are not you.

The 26 richest people on Earth are collectively richer than half of the world. Many of them are on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.


Yet, you don't follow them. But you follow gossips, thugs and rappers. And you are surprised you are still so poor?

Knowledge changes every 6 months to a year. Once we had 1G. It is now obsolete. Today we have 5G.


That is why you must continue your education by reading even after graduation. If you dont, your knowledge becomes obsolete and your earnings dwindle .

Money is a seed. Seeds serve no purpose being in your mouth. Bury seeds in the ground (investments). Wait for it to mature. Then eat its fruit.

Those with savings may end up making banks rich. Those with investments end up making themselves wealthy.

Don’t be embarrassed by the kind of hustle you do, those who laugh at you won’t give you a dime because they don’t give a damn about you, so go on and flip those bricks, sell those tomatoes, hawk those groundnuts, burn that charcoal, crush those stones if that’s what put food in your mouth.
