Like they say, life begins at 40. At 40, you're just 10 years old. It's like rewinding the time to when you were 10 years old, armed with all the knowledge of the future.

At age 30, it's like being born. Life is giving you another opportunity to chart the next 30 years of your life on how you want it to be.

Never too late. Don't screw it up.

Expect nothing.Opportunities and grace are secrets of achievements.
One can even achieve much at early stage of life and die prematurely enjoying nothing.
In any condition u find urself, in as much as u are healthy and at least can fend for urself ,be happy
All will eventually end up in d grave.

I just clocked 40 year old and I feel as if I have not done well for myself. May be because I had always set a standard, hence my high taste and expectations.


Now goes the question,as a Nigerian,what achievement do one expects from a 40years old man irrespective of his education?

It's wrong to assume he's bragging because of 10 million? That's an accusation.

U are the ungrateful one here. Among many who have contributed to this topic, only u and one other fellow sounded like a certified failure who hate success.

When people are rejoicing,pls learn to be happy with them. U don't know my story,how i started. So,I can't compare my life with the dead because I am living bejng.
U can choose to compare ur life with the dead people I don't care.

The thread is not made for insult,but because people like u lack parental care,so insulting people randomly is alway normal with u.

Learn to be unaggressive and live in peace with ur neighbours.

Is this what you call achievement?
I have my own house and I own a hotel in owerri .
Lol
I’m 34 years , I have all this written below.

But let me tell u the truth, if you don’t respect yourself and you don’t have self control, all these are useless .

A man should be humble as well as be a peace to people around you who haven’t achieved any.

Jesus lived for 33years and created everlasting impart. Metusela lived for 998years and nothing to show for it.

If you were born in Nigeria and grow in it without any achievement you are one of the honest people on earth.

A Nigeria were you bribe to get your dream course, bribe to get a job, bribe to get contract.

The system is so faulty that planning or projecting a future plan is almost very difficult.

Nevertheless despite one honesty you can still make it just work hard and never stop praying.

Remember what you called achievement might be another man's wrist watch...try and stay on your lane life no be compitetion

It's okay to feel like that, now get a paper and write down what important things you have been able to do since you clock 20.
It can include going to school even if it secondary school
Starting a business
Getting a certification
Getting married
Having children
Traveling to some cities and state within and outside Nigeria
Among others.
Look out for what make them successful

Then on another list the most critical mistakes you made and what you have not being able to do. Write out the possible reasons why you made such mistakes and how you can avoid them.
Then list the things you want to achieve by the time you get to 60
It doesn't have to be about money

At 40, you should have graduated from either a trade, selling apprenticeship or university then get married with something to put food on the table. Any deviation from this is a misnomer. But if you couldn't achieve any of the above @ above, then try to marry a working class lady who loves you and ready to get loan and set you up to start up well. But be ready to receive insults and be humble.

At 40yrs you still reason lik a 14yrs old, there is definitely a missing link somewhere in your life. You said you can't compare yourself with the dead, do you know how many people slept last night with billions in their bank account, good health, with intention of seeing today but they couldn't make it?
Are you better than the dead ones in any archivement of life? At 40yrs you should be grateful for good health not material accumulation.
As for me I build a reputable firm here in lagos with four different branches with total staffs of more than 30 when I was 26yrs n the firm is still growing stronger and bigger by the grace of God almighty but those are not my archivement.
My only archivement is that God by his infinite mercy find me worthy to be alive today not because I'm better or smarter than dead ones but by his grace n mercy.
