Draggun:This mine 👇👇 1. Your helpers are your main family, not even the family you were born into. Don't joke with people that genuinely love you. Try to get more people like them. 2. Don't bank on promises. See promises as mere talk. Never abandon your path because someone promised you a brighter future. 3. Have a clear map of what you are doing. Have a plan. What do you want in life? Don't care what people will say. They will mock you. They will ridicule you. Don't pay attention to their statements. Follow your plan to the end. 4. Do proper research, don't just believe what people tell you. 5. Be kind. 6. An Eye for an eye. A Tooth for a tooth. Don't allow criminals or sociopaths to go scot-free. Forgiveness should come after punishment. 7. Learn to see the light in people. No one is utterly useless. 8. Learn to provide value. Value will give you what you want or attract you to the people you admire. 9. Don't beg for food. Don't beg for money. Better to die poor and broke than to become a beggar. Refuse to see begging as your last option. Your ego should block you from begging. It is better to do the dirtiest and most dangerous work to put food on your table than beg people. Begging will hinder you from creating value and achieving freedom. 10. Don't be an introvert. Be part of a community No man is an island. Among others, you'll find a solution to some of your problems. 11. Learn to give. Be hesitant to receive. The giver is always higher than the receiver. Givers are lords over receivers. Just as it is better to be a lender than a borrower. 12. Be DESPERATE to find solutions to your problems. Every problem has a solution and some solutions are found in the most unlikely places. NEVER LIMIT YOURSELF when looking for solutions. 13. Never give up on your goals. Even when you fall while chasing them, dust yourself up, get up, restrategise and continue the chase. Don't be afraid of failure. You'll fail. So, allow yourself to fail. Failure is part of progress. Life circumstances are not linear. It's haphazard and random. Failure will teach you a good lesson. 14. Avoid procrastination. What needs to be done today should not be carried over to tomorrow. Because tomorrow might be too late. 15. Think in years, not days, weeks, or months. This will help you know how to calibrate your time and work. If I continue doing this for 5 years where will I be in the next 5 years? 16. Value people that value you. Don't waste time on people who see you as trash. Except you are making money from them. However, dignity is better than the price of labour. 17. Don't just learn a skill. Learn a skill you can easily leverage before the big success. 18. Dont trust any human completely. Humans are cunning and manipulative. Learn to understand the game. And learn to protect your mental strength. 19. People want you to fail. Because your failure will prove their points against you. It's more reason you must work hard to prove them wrong. They are your motivating factor for success, albeit from a contradictory angle. |

Do not think that because someone is rich he will not demand much money from you when he or she render service. Rich people will demand more for service rendered than poor people |

1. Avoid the toxic and vindictive woman (Aka Hate filled woman) at all cost. She can go all length to see you cry, with lots of happiness drained away from you. Been there , and witnessed it. 2. You will not know how expensive peace of mind is till you come across a toxic woman with a negative aura around her. Your life expectancy will drop from +70 to - 15. AND your peace of mind vanished completely. 3. Make sure you are on top of your game when it comes to your physical and mental health. Very important in this century. 4. Some people out there will think nature overblessed you with physical attribute. Avoid them at all cost. Never be afraid to walk alone cause it shows strength rather than weakness. |

CaveAdullam:We thank God, applying the redpill just got a girlfriend early this year, sourcing for jobs with our digital gigs, improving my skill, |

JESHAL007:Good to hear this. Having a girlfriend will truly test your masculine and redpill edges. A tough one indeed. One just needs upgrading skill level. Cos the recent gig economy is hard but possible. Bottom line: we are all gonna come out more successful and better by December. Stay put. Kudos. |

CaveAdullam:Big man good evening, been so busy haven't read your writeups in two weeks, I'm so glad I knew about nairaland through which I met you, your wisdom/ intelligence is golden, ethical, pragmatic. I wish I can get to know you personally, my counselor, my guardian, my mentor, my friend, you have my deepest respect and gratitude, your write ups are realistic and gives me joy and hope which typically is not the case for realistic materials which tend to be cynical and pessimistic, but your writeups are different, very calm, soothing, medicinal, really love you like a brother, my online friend |
