In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.
We should all aspire to chase the things we want like a Nigerian woman does. The audacity of a woman who has nothing going for her believing she deserves the best caliber of men available in society.
Men wouldn’t dare, and I would love to deconstruct this disparity. They believe they deserve it because they simply exist but you are scared?!
Stop chasing overnight success. It is not feasible. Stay grounded in what you're doing. Stop trying to create one viral moment that will announce you and instead focus on a niche that is sustainable. Let people find you doing what you do best so you don't lose yourself when the fame or success come.
Moments come and moments go, but consistency builds trust and confidence. You know that if you've done something many times, you can do it again. But to recreate one viral moment that came from luck, is impossible. You either wont be that funny again, not lucky again, or people have moved on. The worst thing about random viral moment is that, if you blew up for being foolish, you'll have to remain foolish to stay relevant.
The fruit of consistency is not immediate but when it comes, it last.
"Let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season we shall reap, if we do not lose heart."

Após a conferência de imprensa do Selecionador Nacional, e no seguimento de uma conversa com o Presidente da Federação Portuguesa de Futebol, tomei a decisão de deixar o estágio da Seleção Nacional.
A seu tempo, direi a verdade a todos os Portugueses sobre as razões que motivaram a minha saída da equipa nacional, à qual sempre me dediquei.
Agora é tempo de desejar boa sorte a Portugal e a todos os meus companheiros de equipa, sem exceção.
