I'm 27 Years Old And I Have No Job And I'm Living With My Mom, Have I Failed? by Robertkenny(op): 8:34am On Jul 01, 2021
Adepetun Robert Kehinde.

I read something really inspiring a few days back, I can’t find that picture now, so I will try to quote it to as much accuracy as possible
I’ve seen people falling in love at 18, getting married at 21, having kids at 24, and living the perfect life. I’ve seen people starting their college at 24, and not getting married before 35. I’ve seen perfect relationships turning into beautiful marriages and I’ve seen perfect marriages falling apart. I’ve seen people having paid jobs at 21, and joining college at 23, and I’ve seen people graduating at 25, and not having any job till 31.

The point is it’s not that someone is winning the race or someone is lagging behind. The point is it’s not a race, but life. It goes on, and it won’t go on according to the other person, it will go on according to you. Everyone’s life has different pace, and different phases, just because you’re still struggling, doesn’t mean you’re behind someone. You are working on your own pace.

See, everyone has problems. The people you think look perfect on the outside, are the ones who are fighting bigger issues on the inside. It’s you who has to tackle your problems, and tackle them one by one. If you look at the problems, it’s like an army and you have limited ammunition to kill them all. If you will panic you will throw your ammo on one set of problems, and later regret because you’d still be surrounded by it. So say plan.

Plan and tackle them one by one. One ammo on one problem at a time. No money? Get a job. No job? Study and prepare for interviews. Plan your life, and your schedule and routine, and do things one by one, and I’m sure by this time next year, most of your problems would’ve been gone!

You’re not a failure and no one is, all I see are soldiers fighting for a better future ahead with much enemies disguised as Unemployment, Poverty, Lack of support etc.

Less I forget, always stay connected to positive friends or better still business friends.

Hehehe...



No be all men dey get beards at 17...


Some get it at 30...


Work toward success and aim for greatness...

You don't pray for wealth and riches then sit and fold your hands expecting a miracle...


Get something doing....


I asked my father once...


Dad how did you train us all, including bills in this harsh economy without losing you mind?


He said one word....



Relax...





Everything falls In place after a while

As long as there is life, there is hope. Never never give up, God will never give up on you! Every testimony was once a problem. Therefore, if you trust in God, the challenge will soon turn to a testimony. If He did it for one, He will do it for you. If He did it before, He will do it again. Have a blessed day

You really don’t need to look at what others have done or what they are doing
Just relax and get something doing with your life!!
It’s a gradual process

I will advise you to learn a skill, internet skill or any other, these days being a graduate isn't guaranteed even if you graduated with a first class.

and don't ever look down on yourself because of few challenges and never stop trying, remember you are only a failure/loser if you give up.

This should hit front page for wider view. there are a lot of people suffering. they just need little motivation or something that can inspire them. Its not really easy around the world
well what I believe is everybody has his/her own pace. So work on your pace.

no. 27 is the year of release. nelson mandela was released from jail after 27 years. jumoke the bread seller was released from poverty after 27 years. 27 years is appointed to bondage both spiritual and financial during your JOB moment, after which it is release.

hopefully that cosmic program applies to you. and if it does ? this is your year of release

You're currently not doing well, that's the sad truth but my dad always say that the future starts today. There're several things you can do with your life, if you're a bit learned, I'll suggest you go the route of crypto trading (futures and spot) and learn it, it takes less than 4 months of serious study to get very good at it and get yourself out of poverty.

If you're not educated, you can try learning hand work or something but don't think about white collar jobs, they will mess you up. In Nigeria, they rate fish with bird on the basis of how to fly.

If you call yourself a failure, then what will you call Buhari?

See your life... You better be thankful to God Almathy for the gift of life.

No, you still have a lot of opportunity and skill to learn in life so you still have a lot believe me,

You just have to make up your mind, and be determine, it is just all on your mind, it is not too late.

You just have to learn something a skill that you like..
