Please Stop Being Too Real, It Will Limit Your Potential by Nobody: 1:51pm On Dec 29, 2019
I should have been a very big boy by now driving at least an autobiography. I know you must think I'm delusional but it's the truth. I'm one of those people who easily effortlessly gets rich and powerful people attracted to them but my mentality has since limited me. Most of my friends are very rich boys and rich girls but my inability to pretend and " fake it till you make it" has made me still broke. In life nobody gets very far without pretending and and faking it. Trust me, most people you admire dont have half the things you think they have but they fake it so well and that alone keeps opening doors for them because people treat them according to how they have placed themselves. I know alot of people who used their qualities to mingle with socially influential people and today they own houses in lekki and Abuja...like I actually know these people. We grew up together and most of them came from dirt poor homes, but they faked their way to riches and I cant even talk to most now cuz they feel bigger than me. I'm tired of being too real, I'm tired of being natural. I want to win and trust me this natural lifestyle isnt making me mingle with people who should be helping me. Bleep it!

What works for them might not work for you,
Being your real self has alot of advantages than disadvantage. I guess what you are lack is self priority, you have to prioritize yourself when you roll with your so called friends... Subdue inferiority complex and learn to exhibit your self control, fake life means flaunting what you do not own as yours and its major implication is "people see you as rich to the extent that they might not be Willing to render you any help"

My own advice is that you get your acts right,work hard and command respect.

Might be true sometimes. But you can't fake what you actually are not Life isnt understandable.

We had a brother while we were in secondary school. He would always raised his shoulders and never greet anyone. His friends at some point didnt like to talk to him claiming hes too pompous and proud(though his farmer of parents were well to do, as farmers) he won't even behave like he has ever stepped his foot on a farm soil before!

He was our senior in secondary school by two years.

Long story short, Na so he entered polytechnic ahead of his friends that were bent on going to the universities. He actually did this to retain that ego(shoulder still high and very proud still)

Fiam! Na so he finished OND, like he knew what he was doing, or had seen his own future, he got an offer to do IT in Schlumberger oil coy through a senior friend at Poly.

Fiam, Na so money come. Na so he did IT for three yrs instead of 1 year..

Today he has his oil and gas coy supplying Unilag, to Cotonou(before), MTN sometimes etc.

He is very rich now. None of his then friend is as big as he is today.

Last time we met, he was not as proud as then lol.


I actually knew he was not taking anything. Things formed naturally for him. He actually saw himself bigger and carried himself as such.

We don't control what we are without without being controlled from the within.

A lizard can't actually act like a lion.

But it is good to believe in yourself and act it.
