CaveAdullam:
1. Talk is cheap, action is hard.

2. The majority of humans clamor for freedom. But the price of freedom and individual sovereignty is an expensive price to pay. This makes people settle for mediocre lives, mediocre jobs, and mediocre relationships.

3. Refusal to do the important things with joy when young will be done in shame when old.

4. Don't castigate what you don't understand. Because in few years you may become a partner with it.

5. Humans are altruistic as well as selfish. The side you find them on any day is dependent on their mood.

When situations are light, the altruistic side shines. When it becomes a matter of survival, which is the commonest mode, selfishness goes overboard.

6. If you don't have solid principles you'll be tossed to and fro by every wind that blows.

7. It becomes harder to remain focused and consistent as you age. Because your mind is scattered along many terrains.

8. Hard work is important. But to rise from top to bottom, you'll need a helping hand.

9. It takes one person to change your life for good. Hence, be vigilant with everyone you come across.

Don't squander time and interactions with good and powerful people.

10. Nothing goes for free in this life. If you have nothing of value to exchange nobody will treat you with respect.

11. Instead of begging someone for help, see how you can help them. In doing so, you protect your reputation and dignity. And nobody can shame you for working to earn.

12. Anything right and good your mind is prompting you to do now, do it. Don't postpone it. That's where your fulfillment lies.

13. Stay aloof from people who fail to reciprocate kind gestures.

Reciprocation doesn't need to be equal. At least they should be trusted enough to side with you when you are at the low.

14. If you want to see the burgeoning of good behavior, good deeds, and luminous character, reward people who effuse it.

15. Learn to think in 2, 3, 4... dimensions. Your first and best plan may fail. But having other strategies and options will help you when things become tough.

16. Don't depend on promises and favors. Without it, you'll survive. So, why then have you suspended your survival hoping for it?

17. Disappointment is part of life. You must be prepared and wait for it. This is not pessimism. It's just a little handbook of wisdom.

18. Never fail to express your love to people who love you. Your friends and families. Acting strange with them makes you less than lower animals.

19. Wolves are always in the raiment of sheep. Being a sheep draws them close as they arrive to feast on you. Being a wolverine yourself makes them fear you.

Occupy the paradox as an adult.

Tell me which rich whiteman you know that haven't had a sex cheating scandal?


Any whiteman that doesn't cheat will be divorcing every few years to marry new wife, that is why their marriage doesn't last. They do their own cheating through multiple divorce and marriage.

1. Keep your life very private.
2. Minding your business wards off busy-bodies.
3. Just because a pastor or an imam said it, doesn't make it truthful or right.
4. Also connected to no. 3 above, do challenge those pastors who use their authority to try and manipulate you. Pastors are just human. Challenge them respectfully. Say 'no' to things you don't want to do.
5. Try to learn the language of every place you inhabit.
6. Do all you can to learn the language of your spouse.
7. Take care of your parents.
8. Take care of your spouse's parents like you would your own.
9. Money is not everything but it is very important.
10. Cut off toxic people.
11. Silence is a response.
12. Nothing beats your peace of mind.

Women feed their soul via the attention of men. They will hate you if you don't give them attention.

This lie had been propagated and regurgitated so many times, but I'm yet to meet a woman who hates a man because she gets no attention from him.

I have seen a lot of people(friends) blaming their father, family or people around them for their current condition, I have come to understand that we must take responsibility for our choices, actions, and consequences. Blaming others or external circumstances is often not a productive way to approach challenges. Happy Sunday
