Technically, not really about sex per se. What he means, which I agree is a solid principle for success, is to abstain from distractions and maintain single minded focus on your goal for an extended period of time. Such distractions could be women, porn, Nairaland itself, social media, video games, friends/socialising, unnecessary waka waka, any addiction, etc.

You wouldn't believe the huge amount of untapped mental energy dissipated on these distracting and frivolous activities, which prevents you from achieving success. Sometime in the past (a few years ago), I fanatically forced myself to abstain from all distractions for as long as possible and zero my spirit/energies on something I badly needed to achieve. I could only go for about 2 months, but it worked wonders. I achieved my goal. The ideas came naturally and the motivation to work on the ideas also came naturally.

I wish I could go for a whole year without distractions. I would achieve enough to last me a lifetime. Come to think of it what is one year in your life that you can't 'sacrifice' for a greater future? If for example, you are offered N1billion on the condition that you would first go to prison (solo confinement) for one year, wouldn't you take the offer?

So because you have her phone number, you feel you must comment on her WhatsApp DP or status? You think she uploaded the WhatsApp status because of people like you? Why not simply look at it (if you must) and mind your fucking business? Don't you know your boundaries?

Too many of you lack social intelligence, and you suffer needless misfortune as a result.

We all are not born grateful. There must never ungrateful people so long as the word exist.

If you good bruv, you good. Do not change because of another person's ungratefulness.

Also, do not help people with foul expectations of gratefulness or reward.

FOUL expectation of gratefulness? Are you fucking kidding me? What is foul about expecting someone you've stuck out your neck for to do even a basic thank you? You Nigerians have a ridiculously evil sense of entitlement, it makes me sick.

Even God expects to be praised and thanked "whether good or bad", so what's your point?

Jeez.

Keep deceiving yourselves.

What does the barely qualified, incompetent abokki who could not even pass ICAN know about anything? Besides, these routine "transfers" in the civil service mean NOTHING. It is an annoying game of musical chairs. A sisyphean routine signifying idiocy rather than progress.

As near impossible as I admit it will be, all the deadwood fools, in their hundreds of thousands, employed by government at all levels need to be SACKED, and the services reorganised and re-populated on an OPEN merit-driven basis. Otherwise you would keep fooling yourselves with these meaningless 'shake ups'.

After sustained, unconscionable, senseless nepotistic employment of idiots into agencies like the FIRS and the rest of them (including NNPC, CBN, etc and even the security agencies) with incompetent idiots, any new head would come and claim massive 'shake up' - transfers and redeployment OF THE SAME PEOPLE... All of whom know nothing and would therefore achieve nothing. 0 x 0 + 0 - 0 divided by 0 = 0!

Nigeria is not a country. Not even a zoo.. That would be unfair to animals. I can't say for sure what this worthless contraption is.

armadeo:
I take it you've employed before.


Let me lay an example.

A shop owner I know used to run at a loss for a while in his shop. Missing money no explanation.

I then suggested he used his in law who's almost a daughter to man the shop.

See bonanza. All the girls quit working within 2 weeks. He had to get new help. No more stealing. Sales were properly recorded. He has opened another branch now.


The worst of all people to hire are any form of unqualified help. Those ones are criminals waiting to eat your money without knowing how hard it is to make.

Na me you wan tell? I know exactly how this thing works. I've had my fingers burnt. It is ridiculous. I had to close down my only brick and mortar business which didn't allow me control the cash flow process 100%. I laid off the bastards and closed down the business, and went on a very long hiatus to perfect my business model for subsequent ventures.

I also redefined my other business which placed too much creative control on certain employees. Their lazy, wicked and incompetent asses would destroy your business's hard earned quality reputation and send you back to the village. God forbid.

Now I only run (and will only ever run) businesses where I either have full control (or technology enabled supervision) of receiving and disbursing ALL payments, or the process can be automated to a large extent. If I have Nigerian staff, it is only for administrative tasks. I can't even trust them with customer service because if they don't see any avenue to collect money and defraud you, they will chase away your precious customers with their very terrible winchy attitude.

Because they see you living a certain lifestyle that YOUR own entrepreneurship affords you, they would start sulking and expecting 1000000% salary increase, even without commensurate output/performance on their part. Terrible idiots. That's why so many of them can only hope for government work and the likes, so that they can collect free money without adding value.

Nonsense. The average Nigerian employee is incompetent, unresourceful, over entitled, unscrupulous, criminally minded (would defraud or steal from you at ANY given opportunity), and typically has a poor attitude to work.

You don't expect an entrepreneur to share his rewards with your sorry ass for your mediocre contribution. If you don't like the terms of your employment (and if you don't like the fact that there's little opportunity to steal), then you QUIT.

On Dec 26, a friend of mine that was schooling and working in Canada came home for his sister's wedding. He suggested we go to a nearby club just to chill out. Imagine if EFCC stormed that club at that moment, we 'd both have been tagged Yahoo boys at that moment. Some months ago FBI arrested 89 foreigners for financial fraud , before the arrest they already had concrete evidence against them but these fools prefer to arrest first then investigate later.
Back to the useless FG, innocent boys are sent to prison down south while terrorists are paid and given maximum enjoyment under the guise of rehabilitation..who needs rehabilitation more, a terrorist or a scammer.
If you are a southerner and you still support Buhari, I pray the evil to support won't consume you..
To that dead rat griller, one day we go jam one on one, you go no say life no get part two.

You have no idea. If I can absolutely identify the irritating animal behind that moniker, I would place a hefty price on his head. No jokes.

You're not serious yet. How many Nigerians earn up to N100k a month? I'm quite sure less than 20% can boast of that.

PassingShot:
What mum?

Punch keeps acting like child denied of his candy.

The FG did what it needed to do when Uzodinma was a common man by preventing him to travel. Now that he is a governor and enjoys all rights and privileges that come that office, including traveling with diplomatic passport, there isn't anything the FG can do about that case as it stands.

Do we need to remind Punch or PDP that Uzodinma now has immunity against any prosecution just as Fayose could not be prosecuted despite all his crimes against the country?

Joke of a media outfit.

Shut up. Joke of a Buhari zombie.

The Fulani banditry and kidnapping going on across the country is used as an instrument of domination and repression, fully authorised by Fulani leaders. That's why they don't want anything that would curtail this evil agenda.

If only some higher force can administer a Nazi-style, clean sweep 'final solution' on these worthless creatures who are condemned to become terrorists and bandits.

nameo:
Where did these HUGE 236,600 votes come from? Which units did it come from? Didnt other candidates score votes from those units? Who "excluded" it from Uzodinma? Was it INEC, a body controlled by the FG?

Thought you were smarter than this, Bros??

Don't mind that oblong headed thing you quoted.

sureheaven:
I know whenever some bitter people hear anything about buhari or his family, they quickly ready to react negatively.

Why not replace your Allah with Buhari and kuku worship the useless Buhari completely? Smelly thing.

morikee:
If it pains you, go and hug a transformer.

I don't blame you bastards. I blame Jonathan for being cowardly and handing over power to you animals.

atiku4President:
Whonisbthe Chairman ofbthe Committee? Why is he notbspeaking up? He is speaking up cos his name us Francis. If he is an Abdulraman or so, he would'nt have. That's how Nigerians kill the country.

It's even a travesty that they would make a Francis (who is far more qualified) the vice chairman and then make an empty brained abokki Abdulmumudeen the Chairman. The country is doomed.

Jestin:
What is wrong with all this Aboki and their hunger for power ? It the the turn of the South West in 2023 and Osibanjo is our incoming president.

You're not serious. It is the turn of the South West how? After your Obasanjo served eight years just yesterday? Rather than the South West, I would support Shekau becoming the president. Nonsense.

Mrsserene:
Why is Karma selective? There are married men sleeping around and they are not homeless

They're sleeping around with their own money, living in their own homes, built or rented with their own money! Is it not ridiculous for a useless woman who was wooed, married and maintained with another man's money to have the audacity to cheat on that man, whilst living in that man's house? You women need to gather small sense.

For those of you women who are interested in enjoying the 'privilege' of cheating on your spouse with impunity, it is not difficult. Look for a jobless broke ass man to feed, house, and marry with your own money. I assure you that such a man would not bother you too much if you cheat on him. And of course there's no chance of you being rendered homeless as a result!

But if you want to marry a well to do man, and yet you think you can be rubbing shoulders with him and cheating like him, then you must be very very mad.

Any one who commits suicide or who had committed suicide before is a weakling.


A real being solves his/her problems and doesn't run away from it.

Shut up. You know nothing.

Ebido zie o na ato... Darling darling.

Lexusgs430:
We should learn to rise above and beyond........

Maybe somewhere in Scandinavia, or in Japan.
But not here in Nigeria. No real Nigerian man would take this nonsense.

Osaze007:
The fact that you have money doesn’t mean you shouldn’t pash your wife

Have money first, so that you would understand that men who have all the time in the world to "pash" one useless wife can never have the time to make money.

This life, you can't have it all. You must choose what your priority is. If you psssy is itching you and you can't live without been 'pashed', then marry a gate man. Such poor fools often concentrate more on sex since they have no other marketable skills.

Lexusgs430:
Regardless........ She was once married to him, she hit hard times........

He owes her cover.......

He owes her nothing.

Women like this are beyond scum. You want it all, but only end up losing it all.

LadySarah:
Answering wife for nothing. Where is her own money she made while with her husband?

Just buying clothes and following the latest trends without any investment yet still sagged the gatrman.

If your husband brings the children for you, can you take care of them?Just chill till when they will start asking for their mum. That's your reward for infidelity.

Men and their hypocrisy! If the man was caught with the housemaid, the woman will be told to beg, find out why the help was his choice and pray against evil but the tables are turned, instead of him to forgive then up his game in the other room,she is in the streets.

That is your reward when you show ur worthlessness in a union.

It's a lesson to other women, keep answering wife, don't build yourself while he is doing his. ALOT OF THEM CHANGE WHEN BETTER KUDI ENTERS.

Forgive what? You're mad. If you want a jobless husband that would be fucking you senseless day and night go and marry a gate man or motorpark tout and leave rich, busy men alone.

PotatoSalad:
You can't clone an email address na.
I get phishing mails from PayPal thieves all the time. I just check the address and delete the mail

You can indeed clone an email address (spoofing). The exact email address would appear in the 'from' field. The only thing is that you can't use same email to receive messages.

fairfora:
no be small thing. You'd never see him showing us the list of students he had offered scholarship, artisans he had empowered and widows he had brought a new lease of life to. I have a lawyer friend from imo state who built and donated a hospital to his people with a modern town hall. The sourse of wealth of some people wouldn't make them do any charitable work because they know they would die and suffer alone in the end. ezego of lagos in the 80s easily came to mind

Ezego's philanthropy was unprecedented. He built schools and hospitals for his village/town. He settled the maternity bills of all pregnant women in his village (childbirth was FREE courtesy of him), so.... I'm not sure what point you're trying to make by using him as an example.

Too gaudy. Too extra.

Sometimes you should only concentrate on making money, and leave the 'arranging' for those who know how to do it. Otherwise the result would be this awful display of tastelessness.

You're the one sounding stupid and dull. Get lost!

You're a stupid nuisance and a waste of space. Only an idiot would have any iota of support for this fraud called Mbaka on this matter. Just get lost.

This is really sad, but also really instructive.

Look at the departed Promise. But also look at the living Siasia.

Nigeria is a merciless, soulless and unforgiving society. The only way to insure yourself and your family from shame is to amass as much wealth as possible, by any means necessary. So that in life and in death, the dignity and wellbeing of you and your family is preserved.

delpee:
It's actually NDDC funds going by some reports online. Money that could have been used to develop the Niger Delta.

Bad times for a hitherto reputed award winning, intelligent and diligent officer. It's sad that he didn't factor in integrity to make himself an all round winner.

You can't be an "all round winner" in Nigeria without having lots of money/financial security. I'm speaking from a position of experiential authority in the matter. The country despises so-called intelligence, diligence, or integrity for that matter.

In spite of your other 'achievements', if you have to manage life afterwards (financially), then all of that means nothing , and the warped Nigerian society would frustrate and trample on your sorry ass until your children curse you and you die of heart attack. Unfortunate, but that's the sad reality of this money worshipping, toxic country called Nigeria.

seangy4konji:
Its through this laundering that they have all amassed hundred of properties in island that you would think money grow on trees...they have tien g wagons and range rover to pure water in the estate as if it's sold for one million nair..

I'm telling you. That island is so annoying. Forget the luxury cars sef. The properties are annoying. Malls, estates, plazas, hotels everywhere. Twin waters this, the other one that. Crazily overpriced, even as uncountably many as they are littered everywhere from Ikoyi to VI to all the long, nasty spread from Ist toll gate down to Ajah and beyond. Touch anyone, na billion billion in multiples. Who are these people for goodness sake?
