4. Your current job doesn't care about you. They only pay you enough to kill your dreams.

Atleast you should have written the source (The person and the Site).
You can't say it's yours because I have read something very similar on Quora.

When you get married, you will understand that number 3. And again, you will see your immediate family to be the core family. Before you even say you want to give one sister or brother something, na your wife and children you will want to focus on the more.

1. Stay silent. Not everything needs to be said.
Silence is better than unnecessary drama.

2. If you find someone smarter than you, work with them, don't compete. Competition is a weakness.

3. The family you create is more important than the family you come from.

4. Your current job doesn't care about you. They only pay you enough to kill your dreams.

5. Free yourself from society's advice, most of them have no idea of what they're doing.

6. Influence: Most people drift through life. They have no purpose, no direction, and zero intent. Learn their needs. Lead them.

7. You are what you think, what you eat, what you read, the visuals/audio materials you consume and those you associate with.

8. It's better to have 1 friend who's;

Happy for you
Supports your win
Encourage your dreams
Than a bunch of acquittances who are

Lazy
Self-centered
Jealous of your success

9. You'll be 10x happier if you forgive your parents and stop blaming them.

10. No one will ever come save you. Your life is 100% your responsibility.

11.Your inner circle should be more focused on money, success, and starting a family.

12.You don't need 100 self-help books. All you need is actions and self-discipline.

Believe in your heart and soul that you are capable of big things in your life.

The only thing that is standing in your way is yourself.
Op, These are just scratches on the surface of what life really entails as these points have been posted several times.

Well you tried.

The real knowledge about life is dark and hidden.

Don't mind him, people forgot that there are some problems that even your wife and children will have no choice but to call attention of those you feel are not important.

The family you created could be the first on the scale of preference but the one you came from should also be important to you.

No. 9 is the pivot point in my life. It was when I forgave my dad, I started seeing progress in my life.

Please add the fact that nobody owes you anything in this life. You have to work for anything you want.

It means one has to take the initiative .

I have a cousin of about the same age. While he was waiting for one uncle to help him, I was making small small moves to better myself.

Uncle disappoint and after twenty five years they are now blaming him for not trying to improve himself.

Till date that nasty " come and save me mindset " is still in him and I am the new messiah. Person wey senior me ooo.

I had to ignore a message he sent some months back saying I am the only one who can help him.

This man was told to go learn any digital skill and I will pay for the training and certification so he can compete on the global scene and earn in dollars. Na lie na motor him wan make I buy for am to dey do Uber.


That mindset is deadly. No one is coming to save you for real.
You talk too much you are not a man

The above is for the lazy boy Helinue, who spend all his life on NL defending the undefendable.
