This season has made me realise that people hate arsenal more than they love their own teams and that’s truly embarrassing 😭

[Vionna @Kurlycheeks]

My fave Kenyanism word: Rada? Depending on the context it could mean WTF? It could mean “seriously?”. It could mean “what’s up?”. It could mean “the hell’s wrong with you?” And you can understand it by the tone someone uses when saying it, and I find it so beautiful.

This belongs to all of us.

When I was writing my masters thesis, I knew Mau Mau was banned in the 50s. But I assumed of course after independence, they'd be unbanned. I decided to look up the date so I could cite it. Mau Mau was unbanned in 2003! by the Kibaki administration. I clearly remember screaming.

Arsenal can't beat Bayern
Arsenal can't beat Leverkusen
Arsenal can't beat Inter
Arsenal can't beat Sporting
Arsenal can't beat Athletico Madrid
Don’t forget that Athletico/Simeone has never lost a knock out game to an English club
Athletico Madrid will go through at the Emirates
Arsenal got the easiest routes to the final
Arsenal can't beat either Bayern or PSG in the final
Arsenal can't win the league
Arsenal will drop points
This is the worst season ever
Corner FC
Set-piece FC
Haram FC
Bottlers FC
Let's wait till December
January

April
City topped
Arsenal have bottled the league
Manchester City will never drop points again
This is the best season ever
Manchester City dropped points
If Arsenal wins the league, it'll be the worst season ever

A lot of people have shut themselves out of the job market simple because of not updating your LinkedIn. Yeah I know everyone jokes about LinkedIn here and there, but the ones who know, know how much you actually need it if you’re to be serious.

Is anyone else playing with Kimi 2.5? Which I’m shooting content on this week…

They are like Open Source Claude with their Kimi Claw

Kimi is INSANELY GOOD with more parallel agents per task than Claude and you can feel it as you work

Kimi is a fraction of the cost of Claude and does even more. It creates presentations within itself too as well as other document forms.

Also, dare I say Claude has some of the worst hallucinations for a heavy AI user? Still a GOAT though compared to Gemini and GPT

The Craziest business Idea I have ever heard. A friend proposed to our chama we buy land in Kitengela for a private Grave site.

[cheruiyotkb @cheruiyotkb]

Personal finance isn't about being frugal or stingy. Allocate money & time for leisure, vacations, etc.

You can become wealthy while living a lavish lifestyle.

Enjoy yourself while still putting money towards your goals. Proper budgeting helps you design the lifestyle you want.

CEO advice I received throughout my career:

• influence > authority
• agency (can do) > intelligence (IQ)
• customer service is not a department
• sales is the hardest job in any company
• customer focus > competitor focus
• always try to add value and be helpful
• show up when it matters most to your customers
• adopt a beginner’s mindset - experts are lifelong learners
• tactics drive strategy - adapt faster
• earn a seat next to your customer, not across from her
• own it and never point fingers
• learn and use people’s names
• our job is to educate and inspire
• we are all in sales
• stay accessible, curious and humble
• people do business with people they trust, respect and like
• if you are waiting for a title to lead, you are not ready to lead
• the language of business is finance
• there are no IT projects, only business projects
• pay your best people the very best you can
• hire people based on their good judgment and high rate of learning
• in a celebration lead from the back, in a crisis lead from the front
• you are not a team because you work together - you are a team because you trust, respect and care for each other
• to improve the customer experience, start with the employee experience
• you are not taller by making others look smaller
• revenue growth ahead of expenses
• remove bad apples quickly
• leave your desk and spend time with customers
• culture is what happens when the managers leave the room
• tactics drive strategy
• there is nothing more important than our customers
• if you are waiting for a better title to lead, you are not ready to lead
• business is personal - you can be decisive and also be kind, graceful and empathetic
• recognize effort but reward outcomes
• your company is only as good as the company you keep
• your brand is what people say about you when you’re not in the room
• learn to speak your customer’s language
• often remind people that their work matters
• a zero sum mindset limits your growth
• your company is only as good as the company you keep
• innovation opportunities are found at the edges, not centers (how your customers serve their customers)

[Mungai Kihanya @mungaikihanya]

I have figured out why we are so poor in time keeping: it is because nearly all our process are "event-driven".
Things only happen after certain events occur.
E.g., matatu leaves after all seats are taken; meeting starts when there is quorum [or when the boss arrives] etc

[Brett Ender 🥩⚡️ @MeatMafiaBrett]

It is your responsibility to be the CEO of your own health.

At the end of the day, no one cares about your own health more than you.

Take in a variety of different inputs and make the decision of what is in your best interest.

If you don’t actively shape the life you desire each day, you’ll eventually wake up to find that years have slipped by unnoticed.

[Trey Morgan @TreyMorgan]

No marriage is perfect. Those celebrating 20, 30, or 40 years of marriage are actually celebrating forgiveness, tolerance, and moving past big mistakes that were made. Money doesn't determine a better marriage, but character and loyalty does.
