What if you readjust your thought, and assume you're 25? Just assume your date of birth was a mistake, and you're growing faster than your "real" age - 25 years old. Except for the loss of energy, change in physique, and increased fatigue with old age, age as a number is a "scam". 1, 2, buckle your shoe. Take action and control over your life today. Instead of murmuring and wishing for luck or imaginary help. Refine your thinking. Step outside. You can achieve something no matter how minute. The odds are against you, but you must do something. Do it now. A tincture of hope, a trial, and a little success will convince you. Push. Push. Push. Don't relent. Thanks. 14 Likes |

CaveAdullam:Op go with this advice. This is the only sensible post here that’s your last resort or u continue ur old ways. I don’t need a soothsayer to know u still masturbate. You first need to tweak your brain and mind, that’s the most powerful tool we possess as humans. 1 Like |

plsdisvirginme: This is a very tough one. Op, You have a Spiritual problem. Nigeria is a highly spiritual territory. Any man from poor or average background in Nigeria who dosen't strive to be spiritually fortified will never amount to anything meaningful in life. Ignore the Fools talking about masturbation. Only two people up there made good sense Likeking and the other guy who commented first. Start with this simple stuff. Get some natural sea salt, Wake up around 01:00am and pray into it. Then place the salt at the four corners of your room. Also take some of the salt and pour inside bath water, Bath with it "Don't Use Soap" after praying. Leave the salt in your room for seven days. On the seventh day around 01:00am. Pack it and locate the nearest junction in your neighborhood, We Yorubas call it Ori Ta Meta. Don't be afraid, You must act like a Man. Pray into the salt and pour it at the edge of the road. Turn back, head straight to your house and never look back. Try this and see what happen next. To be successful in a place like Nigeria is no Joke. A lot of men won't disclose to you what they did to be successful. All the best. 7 Likes |

It depends on the country you are in. If you are in Nigeria, you can't do anything. Just accept life as it is and manage it till death comes. If you were American or European it's a different thing. I for say make you go learn trade like mechanic or plumbing or go coding bootcamp but those things won't lead to anything in Nigeria. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

LikeAking: Leave hero for superman and batman this is real life. ... The best advice any man can give his fellow man is information. Mk82 gave me that advice years ago and I'm giving him the same advice... Here's the best part.... A newsletter from Dan Kennedy. you can't read stuff like these are feel like you have failed in life. How DOES money speak? Please go to the chapter on ‘money math’ in my book, No B.S. Guide to Ruthless Management of People And Profits. There you will find some of the language of money. Sally Field once embarrassed herself at the Oscars, screaming hysterically, “You LIKE me. You really, really LIKE me.” Peer approval, nice. But in her business, she is judged by a simple fact: box office receipts. SUPERMAN is one of the all-time, most iconic fictional figures. But if the new Superman movie released a few years ago had fallen short of a $100-million opening week, Superman would’ve been stripped of his cape and stuck in a corner to gather cobwebs again, and you’d see no sequel, and probably no Justice League film either – which Warner is dying to make into the equal of Disney/Marvel’s Avengers. Superman may leap tall buildings in a single bound and fly faster than a speeding bullet, but he can’t escape the way money speaks to studio executives, their corporate boards, and their investors and shareholders. A bad box office number has grounded him before, with more certainty than Kryptonite. Similarly, you can be liked, or have a bazillion “Likes” on Facebook, but none of that will guarantee you any money. If you want money, you must listen to it – not to a myriad of other discordant voices. I wake up every day listening, striving to hear what money might have to tell me today. Money speaks CLEARLY, often HARSHLY. It does not spew mystical gobbledygook or vague ideas. If you want Money to be attracted to you, you must listen to it, and welcome its frankness, and speak its language as well. When money channels itself through a market, or group of prospects, or an individual prospect, it also speaks clearly. It demands you convince it that (1) YOU AND YOU ALONE have the best or only solution to a motivating need or desire, and (2) there is a compelling reason to get that from you THIS MINUTE. Surprisingly, if you examine most advertising, marketing, exhibit booths, websites, and even sales letters, they are not focused on meeting these two demands. They lack this focus. With a lot of what you see, this is understood; there is knowing sacrifice of productivity and ROI for other considerations, some legitimate, others embarrassingly pathetic or foolish. But with a lot of what you see, there’s no reason other than simple ignorance of what needs to be said. No amount of “new media” has changed the fundamental, essential steps of attracting and obtaining money, and any “new media” not supportive of taking these steps is BAD media. The steps – you get that tomorrow. Although if you want secrets to REAL wealth, access to internal and often confidential information only held by the few, so you too can get a major payday, I recommend joining our NO BS Newsletter where each month, you get insightful thoughts, lessons from the trenches, and actions you can take immediately to take you, your team, or your business to the next level.

plsdisvirginme: It's never too late to start, someone got rich at 30yrs and died at 50yrs. Another got rich at 60yrs and live beyond 100yrs. It means life has no manual. Make a list of what interest you in terms of vocation or skills that can fetch you money, strike off from the list what you cannot afford to pay for, it may be money to start a business or learn a skill, you can be an apprentice where they sell tiles, iron rods with a commitment that you will pay your boss instalmentally. You end up with what interest you and affordable. Never believe it's too late to start from the beginning, giving up is not an option till death. You can still be whatever you wish to become with dedication and prayers. 3 Likes |

CaveAdullam: Good morning sir Please what advice do you have for me who is 24, and still a virgin. I am asking you because I feel like I am a failure, because my neighbors are spreading rumors that I am homosexual. But I am not. Ever since I was baby my mother who doesn't work or make money have been bullying, over nagging, and over beating me and my siblings. It made an indoor person. I don't socialize. The only thing between me and suicide, is family honour. If not I would be Sand, because my corpse would have rotted a long time ago. Funny enough I am a 500lv student. My grade is very poor. I usually don't lectures, but whenever I go to class I focus on what people may be thinking about me. My father is a Professor. He doesn't give us orientation. Insults, and abuse are things he gives us. Whenever I call him on phone he will first abuse me and belittle me before answering me. All these have affected my mental health, and I don't have a balanced emotion. Unlike other parents that support their children whenever they have altercations with their friends, or enemies my father will instead start abusing us. And say "did I not tell you not to go there" Mother doesn't work, or make money, but prefer calling people "lazy" Normally I don't communicate my feelings; I am just what Italian Mafians call "stomach man" That is people who swallow their feeling and thoughts. I am opening up because I am on high on Action bitters like substance We don't go to village like other families; they tell us that it is because we have no car, and it won't be good to the ears that a whole professor has no car. Any time money comes in the family mother will use it in buying herbal medicine. She said that we have infection. And when we marry we won't be able to sire children She has patronized up to 100 different herbalist. She doesn't have the mentality of paying back people she owe. When I got admission for into the university, I told her that wanted to leave alone in a lodge, and not the school hostel. She bullied, and abused me into staying in the school hostel. I got admission in 2018, but my parents didn't allow me start school that year. I think they just wanted me to be fetching water for them. And when I started school in 2019, the hostel was full, and I had to attach in a room that already had 4 people in it. Just like the sacrificial lamb in Jewish tradition, I was blamed for every misfortune in the room. From suspecting me of stealing ordinary file to stealing phone. I was innocent. And it shattered my confidence up till today. In 200lv they said that there was no money for lodge, or hostel, and I should go attach myself in the room of any of the 100lv students. |

ChangedMan1999: Probably, your parents are regretting their failures. And the only way to discharge their negative inner feelings is to be passive-aggressive. Unfortunately, rather than tune it to an art or work and try to make things better for their children and family, they use you (and your siblings) as scapegoats. It's a pity, my dear friend. Since you are in your final year, exercise patience. And make sure you apply for NYSC as fast as possible, as it will take you far from your parental whips and woes. From there, begin to plan your way out. And please, take your grades seriously to avoid an extra year or two. It will not be easy to shine as a little candlelight when the darkness you've found yourself carries along a strong turbulent wind. But try to hold on. Just try. Don't hate them. Your plans should be on how to escape and neither to harm yourself or them. You are young. You have a beautiful future ahead. Hold this tight in your memory. Use it as a paddle to cross troubled waves till you get to the shore. Stay well, my friend. Thanks. 4 Likes 1 Share |

ChangedMan1999:I really feel for you Sha. I was once in a situation close to yours. But not as bad, anyway. But you are still young. Take charge of your life. Don’t let the negativity of others get to you or define you. Equip yourself with knowledge and probably skill. Your parents may just be trying to challenge you to take charge and man up! But they are doing it the wrong way! But don’t be rude to them. Always treat them with love and respect! This rule is very important if you expect God the creator to look in your direction. Another thing you can do is to turn all the disadvantages you’re facing into advantages. 1, since you’re not sociable, use your time to study hard. Academic brilliance has a way of attracting people to you. 2, Since you aren’t don’t have a girlfriend owing to you not being sociable, dedicate your time to studies. Women are a huge distraction (talking from experience). I feel for you bro. 2 Likes |
