You didn't understand his point. He said never outshine your master not outsmart.

You can use submission as a criteria to mask your plan and infiltrate. You Can't go upfront just like the way protesters did and it turned to a blood bath.

Before you fight someone powerful, you have to know his weakness and has infiltrated him already.
There you can have an edge when you fight.


There are those above you that you can crush easily but their are those very powerful like the government and you can't crush them, you have to maneuver.

When you read that law to the reversal of the law you will understand vividly what he is talking about.

Obviously, your experience is peculiar and valid. But family is really what some of us have "got".

Hopefully, even if the family you came from didn't check the boxes, you'll strive to make sure that the family you produce fare better. I'm sure you'll want better for your kids.

Let the 'truth' you lived be the 'lie' they never live.

If there is a year people won't forget it is definitely be this year. Many things happened from the pandemic to protest.
And Finally the hear is coming to an end.

Here are top lessons i was able to learn in 2020.

1. Life is unpredictable. You don't know what will befall you for the future is not within our locus of control . Anything can happen in life. I was suppose to graduate this year but the pandemic scattered WhatsApp Group everything.

2. Every disappointment is an opportunity to someone. While we were in the midst of Covid19 and alot lost their jobs, some people made more money than any other year.

2. Never trust people words but actions. People give empty promises. It doesn't matter even if they swear it is gibberish.

4. People are selfish. No one can truly love you except yourself. Anyone can betray you at anytime.

5. Those in authority almost always think they are above the law.

6. Never try to fight those who are more powerful than you or else they crush you. Never out shine your master as Robert Greene will put it.

7. Nothing spread faster than fear. People who are insecure will spread lies to make others fear.

8. We do everything in life to make us forget death. We keep ourselves busy with work, sports, movies etc for boredom reminds us of loneliness and death. This month of December was very scary for many people died and it made me think deeply about life.

9. Be careful with flaunting your wealth. People are envious of successful people. The more you showcase yourself the more some people resent you.

10. Blame shifting. People like to shift blame on others. Most people do not want to be blamed, so they their subordinates, the government , their spouse, family etc.

EMMAUGOH:
For the first time since I can Remember, I could sit down and read. I read like 5 books in 2 months.

Thats was the height of my achievement this year. Also staying away from internet was record breaking.
Never knew how my life changed when I stopped subscribing to internet and was very free with time and thought and priorities.

I am going to double it in 2021

The protest also showed that the empires of so called Nigerian Billionaires from the Southern Part of the country will go down after their demise because of the emotional and intellectual stupidity of their children to be able to project into the future.
When the protest was prolonged, I wrote here on Nairaland that it was more of a class struggle. A class struggle between traditional and customary socialists(poor people with entitlement mentality) and risk taking, ambitious capitalists ( politicians (Politics is a business in Nigeria ) and every other wealthy person at the top). That's Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto playing out real life in Nigeria.


I really wished DJ Cuppy's father and Davido's father lost at least one valuable company asset each to the hoodlums who burnt and looted people's sweat. I also wished the reform made the IG withdraw Police escorts from their families so that Kidnappers would relate with them well.

I'm barely 21 and I know my generation is very stupid , senseless , idiotic and copy copy generation. A very foolish generation ravaged by herd mentality.

juniorstar:

save and invest, if you saved 1000000 naira at the beginning of the year that money is worth around 750000 naira now.

Alphafeezay:


You are very correct. But you must be very careful with your choice of investment

kiddkash:

it is, but you make due with what you have and hope for the best. even if the hope is gradually fading away


it's the life of a man

I learnt again that hard work does not pay but smart and intelligent work do.

My experience during the Covid 19 palava.

Blackops:
Biggest lesson I learnt is that, it is good to work in a good place. I know guys who were still collecting steady income all through the lockdown despite not going to work.

And for people working in 'Kashamadupe' (Lets just thank God) organizations. Find a side hustle.

Abeg who fit help me through with start Fiverr and Upwork?

I am good at writing and paraphrasing.

i learnt that this world is nothing and is very fickle. nothing matters anymore. no need to be unhappy because goals have not been achieved because at the end of the day ? those goals dont mean nothing. in all things acquire wisdom knowledge and understanding. nothing else matters

now i walk around wiith bathroom slippers and dont care what the world thinks. Bleep the world. its fickle and dont mean nothing. in 2020 i have seen men of dignity and of means turn wretched right before my eyes. everythng is a front
