Do not show up trying to become important. That is a rookie mistake.
First become useful.
Become useful enough and people start trusting you with harder problems.
Solve enough hard problems and leverage appears.
Importance is downstream of usefulness.
Big believer in the idea that only a handful of decisions determine your entire life. The rest is all just noise
The big decisions are generally:
1. who you marry
2. what career path you go down
3. saving and spending habits
4. how you take of your body and exercise
5. who you spend time with (friends)
If you get these 5 right, it’s really hard to go wrong in life

There is an African Proverb that I love:
“A cat that dreams of becoming a lion must lose its appetite for rats.”
Meaning: To achieve greatness, you must let go of old habits that could hold back your progress.
One hour of brainrot per day accumulates to over 5 years of your waking life redirected away from fulfilling activities. Replace even half of it with focused upskilling and your life starts bending in a different direction.
Whenever I catch myself not reading things completely, I remember anti-intellectualism is on the rise, literacy is in decline, and I don’t want to be a VICTIM!
Adulting made me realize how incredibly hard providing is. Omo fathers are heroes.
To all fathers constantly grinding & putting the families first, even when not personally comfortable, I say happy Father’s Day to you, thank you for your labour of love❤️
Your village people haven't won, and your family isn't cursed. You live in a country where it is 5x harder for young people to achieve their goals. There is nothing wrong with you, you are not a failure. You are simply a product of a struggling economy.
There's nothing Messi will ever do that will make any Ronaldo fan start supporting him
The sooner you people get this in your head, the better...
And it's certainly not because of a Hattrick against Algeria
