My eyes were so heavy yesterday , I had to sleep off but woke up midnight as usual. I'm here feeling guilty for not working out yesterday. I have been doing pushups and squats everyday since August. Although I have been doing that before then but I started documenting it mentally in August.

I need to stop that guit and get back to work. I really hope my channel is actually back because I want to delete Twitter. Social media really sucks, ughs! I go there for tips but I believe more in action.

People have suggested I start posting there and earning. I don't know what's wrong with me and why I have never been a social media person.

But anyways, I need to finish this video. I didn't post yesterday and that's depressing. I wanna finish this series because these viewers are throwing hate comments when it's just a freaking video. Dude, chill, it's fiction!

So pissed off I haven't posted the book too, oh God! I need to be more organized!

---

I had to generate the images manually because I wanted it to be complete. Oh man, my eyes nearly fell off. Let's see if I can finish by 12 .

Look at what the part 1 and the part 2 has gotten me so far. Lord, I really wish the algorithm will push them harder. I really hope my growth doesn't get stuck again . Let's make S500 this month, and $5k next month.

Lord pleaseeeee! So if I can keep getting these kind of RPMs, this means I just need 2000 views to make at least $30 per day.

I will call this my money when it enters my bank account.

Thank you Lord for everything. I remain grateful, and I give all glory to my Lord and Creator.


I just selected the images and I noticed the new update. Our boss Seun is really doing great. Love it!

The videos are doing so well. The part 1 is at over 5.8k views and the part 2 is at over 1k views. I posted 8 hours ago. The video I posted right after the part 1 (not related) is at over 279 views.

The algorithm is so weird. Honestly, I hope it continues like this for a long time . And yet with lesser viewers, I made $84 in a day! But the other time I made $76 a day, it took a lot more views than this.

---

Honestly, nothing better than having many videos because once one video blows up, the others start gaining attention. Imagine videos I posted a month ago now getting comments. It's amazing.

I really hope it continues like this. At least let me make my $10k .

Looking forward to my $100 day.

---

I was able to finish the video (part 2) very early and started working on my book. But I was feeling sleepy since I hadn't slept well for some time, so I dozed off but wake up around 1:42 AM.

---

I think I will start working on part 3 so I can finish early.

I hope to finish this book this week, then publish it and see what happens. I truly hope it goes live.

---

Thank you Lord. My January earning was literally at $6 something and then boom! So grateful. Nothing fuels a man to know more better than a good result.

I had so much fun creating this video. I slept off while uploading it but I woke up by 1 a.m. and immediately clicked on the "publish" button. I took a little nap again and I checked again, the video is currently 1/10! Oh Lord, I really hope this is it. I haven't had any viral video for more than a month now.

---

But one thing about consistency is that you get to learn more as you keep showing up, I also learned to tweak Google AI studio to make my voiceover more human and interesting to listen to. A lot of people are trying to use it too, I just hope they don't ruin it. It's one of the best voiceover generators out there and it's free.

---

I just finished filling in the bank account details, I really hope it gets accepted. The thing has really stressed me a lot, to be a Nigerian is not a day job. Dear God, please come to my aid and keep this account safe so I can do wonders in Jesus name I pray, Amen.

---

Thank you Lord for everything, I'm eternally grateful.

---

The plan is to start working on the next video NOW and after that, I start writing this book with faith. If I start working on the next video, I will definitely finish up before 12 PM.

I'll see you later.

I'm so overjoyed. The video is doing super great! Damn, consistency really pays! I really hope it remains like this for a long time, and my channel remains safe.

The algorithm finally remembered me after almost a month and two weeks.

---

After uploading this one, I'm creating a part 2. I really hope and pray this one does well too. So help me, God. I'm grateful and thankful. The comments are just so sweet, they never get old. I can't even respond to everything without stretching my neck .

One of the most terrifying thoughts I struggle with, is ending up without fulfilling my dreams especially the plan of eradicating poverty.

I have been so turned on these days, my libido is so high but I don't have time for that nonsense. I feel like I have wasted that Claude AI subscription, I'm not using it the right way.

Honestly, I want to have 200 videos on this channel by March. Now, hopefully KDP clicks, now I have two businesses to build. I feel so lazy.

Now, since the termination and demonetization wave is cooling off, I will start using fewer images. 20 images.

As for KDP, once I'm sure I have enough books and I will double down. I'm speaking with this Ghanaian dude and he's doing amazing, man. I have always said there's so much money on Amazon and I have stressed on the importance of treating it like a business.

I want to get back to consistently posting everyday even if it means using fewer images. I must post this video today. I swear.

I need 167 videos to reach 200 videos on this channel. Let's go.

After waiting for days, geegpay finally approved my USD account. I couldn't fill it in because of network. I'm now contemplating what to do next — work on YouTube or start working on the book immediately.

I should have done that but I wanted to be sure the account is still here with me, and everything is ready.

I also have to be serious with my time and see how I can manage it properly. I will not leave YouTube just because of this KDP account — NO!

Okay, I have decided to create the YouTube video and start working on the book after that. Let me exercise and take my bath.

I haven't been consistent with YouTube, I'm trying to get this KDP thing done once and for all. I really want to see if they would let me publish books without blocking them. I'm seriously praying that they do, I will be extremely happy.

Did I tell you I verified the account already? Oh yes, I think I did.

---

I feel like a lazy bum, I feel anxious and exhausted and I know why. It's because I'm not working as hard as I think I should be. I haven't been doing anything but lately I have been trying to fix this KDP thing. My chest is feeling the anxiety, God I really hope this thing works.

---

Honestly, I love YouTube but Amazon would have been so sweet if they weren't so heartless. At least, if YouTube comes for your account, they try to be "nice" . Stupid big companies. This is why I want to get my bag up so I no longer fear these guys.

---

God, I don't even know how I feel.

---

I'm still trying to get the back account, I want to use geegpay (Raenest or whatever) but they are asking for my "KDP link." These guys need to stop being ignorant, it's impossible to share my "Amazon KDP link" because that's not how Amazon KDP works.

Recently, you have to provide every detail including your bank account details before you're allowed to start publishing. Before we could leave that space blank but not anymore. And I'm not taking any chances, I don't want to use the author page of my one of my books from the account — hell naw!

I don't trust them! What if the information gets leaked to Amazon and they say I have multiple accounts?? I know it looks like I'm being paranoid but mannnn... I don't care, man. I just want things to work.

---

I finally logged into the Amazon account with my brother's phone. I was kind of pissed off because the fcking iPhone wouldn't connect smoothly to the Internet! Yes, the network has been sh!t these days but c'mon!

---

Man, I got too many scattered thoughts. I need to start writing more often. I will be heading to my main diary to talk about the saving (ummm, what do I call it?)... the saving whatever I started on Opay. I should have started earlier. I actually did last year and then KDP terminated my account and everything fell apart.

God help me and keep me away from troubles, man. Got too many thoughts.

---

And oh, I started posting on YouTube again, I hid my face actually. I should be proud of how ugly I am. Screw me! I don't care if I don't shave, I will start filming without hiding my face. It's just a channel where I just rant about anything. My next video would be about my Mother's crazy as$ relatives.

---

Mannnnnn, I don't know how I feel. I actua... Mannn, I'm off this!

I haven't created any videos for days now.

---

Bro, we finally did it. I'm praying for God's protection and grace. Oh Lord, help me. After over six months, I finally verify the Nigerian account with the same NIN card they said would never work.

I have passed the first stage. Next is: adding the bank account details, publishing multiple times, and they all go live. So help me, God. I promise to focus on few books and running ads.

I already have a budget between $50 to $150. Profitable ads only. Oh Lord, I just pray it works out. More income streams unlocked by God's grace. And by God's grace, KDP has become soooo easy for me.

I do it effortlessly. So help me, God.

Ah, my head! I should learn to be grateful, to live, before I end up k!lling myself with overthinking.

I think I'm ready to go beast mode, the only issue is how slow exporting and compressing the videos are. But it's okay.

Nothing will ever defeat me, not even zero views. I must upload 200 videos on this channel. If I see an untapped niche, I'll go into but I will never abandon this channel. Or maybe I will feel better if I find a niche that gives me a channel making $20k monthly.

---

Depression will be the death of me. At this point, can money ever fix me? Money is extremely important but it won't make a man happy. Happiness is an illusion, man.

---

I'm hearing gunshots 🤦🏻‍♂️. Or is it my ears? Maybe it is... Mannnnnnnn.


Looking forward to making $20k.

Uploaded a video last time and woke up to 5 views . YouTube will never defeat me.

---

I'm still waiting for the guy to print the NIN card, I'm hoping and praying seriously that this method should verify the KDP account. Honestly, there's a lot of money in that business. Now, I feel so sad Amazon is just trying to gatekeep...

I will start working on my next video ASAP.

I have posted videos that are over an hour long consistently, and my CTRs have become so awful. Mannnnnn.

I will focus on improving and improving, not the money. Or is it because of the videos I deleted? 28 videos posted so far.

172 remaining.
28/200.

As for KDP, I spent a lot of time on Amazon site yesterday. I will be getting my sister's nin, and will print the card. I hope it works by God's grace.

I wanna push myself. I want to create 3 to 4 videos today before the new year. Thank God I force myself to sleep after I woke up at midnight and done a little work.

I can't keep struggling with one video. I'm using 30 images, I just want to use these videos to figure out what works. Still trying to get the channel back to its feet.

I'll see you in the evening, God help us. Hopefully they don't interrupt this light.

I uploaded that one video I was working on since yesterday and it's performing awful but anyways, we keep pushing.

I was feeling sleepy plus someone was around so I paused on this video. Everything is ready. I just have to edit on capcut and expose... And oh I'm not done with the voiceover audio. I realized it was best I generated the image first.

So, it's actually possible to create that amount of video per day but requires a lot of work and it's easier with excellent tools.

I got a lot on my mind, man. It can only get better.

This is a very stupid comment, and could easily be one of the most stupid things I have read in a long while. It is clear your brain is blocked and filled with what I call, "poverty of the mind." You're no different from the APC guys you castigate.

Did your brain get so dull you didn't realize that road trip is a thing? Or has the insecurity of this country coupled with this lackadaisical hedonism filled you with so much stupidity that you do not realize how shameful it is that we cannot freely enjoy the beauty of Nigeria's landscape?

Many people go on vacation just to enjoy the country's landscape, driving on the road, and enjoying the simple things your layman's mind has classified as "stinginess."

This incident has stained more of the little white parts of Nigeria's gown. Yes, death and accident is inevitable, yes, people would always be stupid enough to grab their smartphones (which they are dumber than) to film tragic happenings, but the whole world now understands how much value we place on human lives.

To us, it is totally normal to suffocate an accident victim with our smelly and sweaty bodies and smartphones, then use dilapidated jeeps to drive them to the hospital. Why? Our ambulance is driving to heaven to report our stupidity, of course, the world would understand.

It's heartbreaking, Lord knows who's next. It might be me, and it wouldn't be news since I'm just a faceless nobody.

I have been consistently uploading, it's not easy but I enjoy it. I was uploading this video when I slept off.

My brother's iphone just arrived. Let's really hope everything goes well so he can get into the game too immediately.

I'm not happy that I'm not going fast enough but the truth is, most times our biggest problems are the tools we use. My phone or laptop wouldn't be as fast as phones or laptops with 16 or 32 ram. It can only get better.

I asked my friend and brother to send me the KDP screenshots and I'm wowed. It might be pennies to a lot of people but mann, I'm so proud and I can't stop wondering what would have happened if they let me keep publishing.

Think about it: I don't even check KDP or do it anymore yet the books keeps selling. Imagine if I had published 50 books! I saw one of the books I wrote sometime in June and it has made almost $30 this month.


Very funny. Just 7 to 10 and I have done nothing for months. God knows I truly know this KDP thing, all I need was time and a stable account. If they had allowed me, I should be making at least $3k ORGANICALLY with no ads.

I think I'm quite good at creating books that sell organically for a long time. One of the bosses always told me I was really good at self help and evergreen niches but my imposter syndrome wouldn't let me agree.

Even as I type this, my mind is still saying "No, I'm not really good." But it's okay. Lord, I really need to get out of this life of constant worry of falling back into abject poverty.

I know it never goes away but I feel like... The way I'm always all about the hustle, defeat poverty, work, etc, can I ever be normal without thinking of this? Am I too materialistic? But I know I'm not. Poverty must be eliminated.

Lord help me. If I can successfully manage another KDP account next year and upload 50 books or create few books with massive and aggressive ads, God will help me say goodbye to poverty forever.

Thank you Lord as we defeat poverty, this amount is nothing but thinking back to how broke I was this year, I'm grateful to you Lord. Thank you. Thank you for the wisdom. It was that wisdom that made me reach out to my friend, always motivating him like an orator... I'm grateful.

My Claude AI subscription ended December 24th and before I did something, it was automatically resubscribed! N33.5k removed from the Opay account. I had converted some dollars and they removed it . I couldn't cry because I needed it, anyway but was hesitant.

I'm sharing it with one of my Gs I met in the online biz but he hasn't said anything about subscribing but it's not my problem. I'm using it and need to revive my channel with absolute consistency.

And I won't want anything on my way. I'm still using Google AI studio for voiceover but waiting for this thing to be generated while cutting the script bit by bit is a lot of time. I'm considering getting pro version of elevenlab through genai. Another problem with Google AI studio is its tendency to correct your grammar and skip some words . So annoying!

I just finished generating the audio for the part 2 of the video I posted yesterday. I told them I needed 3k views to release the part 2 but even though the video didn't fly, I'm releasing it anyway.

I need to move on. Now, I need to make sure this subscription was worth it. I currently have 23 videos, and by God's grace, by January 24, I need to have 40 videos.

Phew! It's gonna be a lot of work because I will be throwing one of my legs into KDP with my sister's account. I created it a couple of months back, it's not verifiable but if I can verify it with her nin card and things works out well, that would be so great.

---

I know I talked about writing manually but at this point, I'm going capitalist. Speed is absolutely important in order to make $100k in 2026. I will be dropping a lot of works and by God's grace, it can only get better.

Time to go generate the images and get this over with, and move to the next video.

Oh boy, this channel is sucking my energy and brain. Soooo busy mentally. I can't think straight. Going to the marketplace to see if I can increase the laptop's ram.

I might be starting another channel. My little bro is back after many years, I'm convincing him to get into the YouTube game.

Someone texted me, and despite the anxiety that overwhelmed me because I value my privacy greatly, I responded and talked to him. It seems he is still texting me "good morning," he might be seeing me as a villain for not responding. Why do people do this?

I have loads of messages with "good morning, good afternoon, good evening," is that your purpose? Why not:

" Good morning, how're you doing? I do hope you good? Please I'm texting because blablablabla"

We all have our problems, for Christ's sake. For days now, my head has been hurting. I can't respond to texts. I remember how a guy texted me, I responded, he kept me on anticipating mode, and started asking about family, work, I kept responding and I was working. I had to ask him to go straight to the point and he got offended. I mean, we don't know each other, I don't know why you're texting, and you keep me waiting.

On God, my heart is going to the death of me. I respond to people because I don't want them to go through what I went through or still going through.

As for the dude from Nairaland, I even sent him the number to get the course like he requested, only to find out he's still texting me asking something about niche. If he had bought the course, he'd find the answers to these questions. That's how I ended up exposing my niche because I was trying to be kind.

My brain is exploding, I know I can make $100k but the foundation is shaky because I need to balance things up.

---

You waste your time asking questions when you should actually be taking action. This is why I stopped texting these O.Gs about my channel. I have been experimenting on my own, because I know these questions come from anxiety. What if? What if? If you take action now, you learn what works and what doesn't.

---

People need to understand that we are all struggling. Just because of $200, I should start acting like a guru and waste my time answering questions and questions. How do you expect me to become the best? Someone that can actually help in the future?

If you had taken action, I will be happy to answer a few questions but bombing me with questions when you haven't taken action is detrimental to both of us. This isn't about the dude from Nairaland, I know we humans love to create villains. He's not the only one texting me, just writing down my thoughts. If he sees this and takes offense, GOOD. This is my diary. If he actually gets motivated and decides to start grinding and come to me as a fellow hustler — EXCELLENT.

If I ever find another niche, I will never expose it until I create 10 channels and monetize them.

---

I also deleted two videos on my previous channel and another two on this current channel. One of the O.Gs I know lost his channel because they claimed his video included children in danger blablablabla. On God, I'm grateful I get to experiment different things even though YouTube is going stupid like Amazon. But I don't have to walk on eggshells so I can experiment different stuff.

Anyways, last week was awful 😞 but I'm grateful. Do I have a choice? Months ago, I didn't have a penny and lost all of my assets. It's a gradual process. I will get there. Channels grow differently.

I analyzed the channel with Claude AI, will be trying out the new titles it gave me. And the videos will be between 30 mins to 1 hr. And yeah, I will go see if I can increase the laptop's ram. Honestly, the lack of a good laptop is hurting my productivity.
