Tip Of The Day:
Avoid anger. Seriously. Anger can make you fight battles that weren’t worth your blood pressure. Stay calm, keep your dignity, and let people reveal themselves without helping them write your worst chapter.
If you just follow your heart you'll end up in hell, because hearts are liars and feelings are fools and the road to destruction is paved with authentic self-expression, which is why wise men follow their minds and holy men follow God and only idiots follow their hearts
Men,
Learn to thrive and survive alone,
People will abandon you,
Your woman will abandon you,
But your spirit will NOT,
But your inner strength will NOT.
Be your own anchor.
YOU ARE A MAN

FACT:
MOST meetings in the corporate world aren’t for solving problems, they’re for sharing blame. By the time minutes are typed, nobody owns the mess.
In the village, if a roof leaks, one man climbs and fixes. In office, 12 people discuss rain patterns... roof still leaking.

Sit on the message for one night.
Sleep on the email for eight hours.
The reply you would have sent at 9 pm and the reply you will send at 6 am are not written by the same man.
The city is no longer a dream; it is a trap with rent, taxes, bills, joblessness and hunger waiting at the door. Go back home. Build in the village. Plant food. Keep animals. Create your own survival system. A difficult time is coming, and the State will not save you.
Thread 🧵
A man who calls his kinsmen to a feast does not do so to save them from starving. They all have food in their own homes. When we gather together in the moonlit village ground it is not because of the moon. Every man can see it in his own compound. We come together because it is good for kinsmen to do so.
