This is so true.
One of the ways anyone who has an idea can deal with this is to learn HOW TO SHORTEN THE TIME BETWEEN IDEA CONCEPTION and EXECUTION.
The moment you train yourself to shorten that time, you will bring ideas to reality faster than you think.
If all you end the year with is a working trading knowledge, believe me you ended the year well. Especially if you know how hard it is to get a working trading knowledge.
When I say a working trading knowledge, I mean a system that you have built, tested, executed on live/prop account, failed, refined, and you now understand perfectly how to engage it, I promise you that you've done well for yourself already.
You just know that 2027, is explicitly for waiting for trading opportunities, executing, and gathering results. And of course, they year has not ended. So if you already have one, just position yourself for trading opportunities, and see how far you can go.
Don't try to fast forward the process through risking based on belief. Rather, let your risk be based on track record from the system.
Do this, and see how the year ends for you!
@nathanielblow Happy 45th birthday pastor nath! All Glory be to God for how he continues to show himself strong and mighty through your life, may his favour continually abide with you and household sir...... amen 🙏
Paul said some have come to the conclusion with this thought having heard him preach..."shall we therefore continue in sin that grace may abound" to that he said God forbid.
Literally that means if you intentionally and habitually practise the flow of grace will stop.
Amplified puts it this way
"What shall we say [to all this]? Should we continue in sin and practice sin as a habit so that [God’s gift of] grace may increase and overflow?"
His answer
"Certainly not! How can we who died to sin live in it any longer?"
Pray to recognize purpose. Pray to recognize patterns. Pray to recognize people. Pray to recognize phases. Pray to recognize principles. Pray to recognize possibilities. Pray to recognize prompts.
And pray to see what others may overlook. Pray for discernment.
Ask God for eyes to see, and wisdom to respond.
So much wisdom in #TheWord.
So much wisdom.
Many of God’s children have a wrong sense of how important Work is to God.
To get the good kinds of outcomes that we desire in Life….. that is, the kinds of outcomes that are not from dishonest gains, God instructs us to “put in the work”.
It is the Work we put in that our God then blesses.
And then His blessing on the Work makes rich without the sorrow that accompanies dishonest gains.
Fools gain wealth dishonestly thinking there will be no consequences but surely as night follows day, treasures of wickedness will be punished if not in the short run but definitely in the long.
The moral legitimacy of wealth matters more to God than people realize.
As it is with people, so it is with nations.
God wants us to “put in the good work” for Him to bless.
Deuteronomy 28:12
“The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, *and to bless all the work of thine hand*: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.”
Deuteronomy 15:10
“…for this thing *the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thy works*, and in all that thou puttest thine hand unto.”
Psalm 90:17
“And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: *and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.”*
Deuteronomy 30:9
“And the LORD thy *God will make thee plenteous in every work of thine hand*…”
Put in the Work! ✍🏾✍🏾✍🏾
You have a duty to God to become more competent, disciplined, and influential than you ever imagined yourself capable. You must become a weapon against evil.
Guys, when you are in a long-term relationship with a good woman, try everything you can to improve her. I don’t just mean with material things. Remember: “I even bought her IPhone and “Bone Straight” is for weak and inferior men. Yes, you will do those but they shouldn’t be your claim to fame.
Improve her professionally, academically (if she wants) and financially, and give her security. You will benefit from it more than you think.
I am Ezemmuo. I know things.
You know how we've established that knowledge can be a burden.
Sight, the perception of potential, can also be a burden.
Once you've caught a glimpse of your potential, mediocrity becomes hard to tolerate.
A man who has seen how much he can become? There's no rest. No peace.
Let me try and explain why cancers happen and why anyone reading this Tweet can have Cancer BUT you can lower your risk.
Let's start with What happens in the normal body.
Everyday you are alive, your cells are dividing and performing functions. every part of your body is made of cells with different roles.
The body has a clock , every cell has a born date and has a destruction date. there are 2 ways the body destroy cells.
One way is When it is time, the body tells cells...IT IS TIME. You need to die. There are some soldiers that go and destroy these cells that are worn out, some cells die themselves because it is time. A process called APOPTOSIS.
The body just like every machine can make mistakes, while dividing some cells might have abnormal parts or missing parts, BUT It has a Checkpoint. Any cells that are abnormal don't pass this gate. right there... BOOOM. The body destroys them. You don't want abnormal cells DIVIDING
BUT CANCER
Same cells, but when it is time to die, they don't die, these cells become like Methuselah, omnipotent. they are living forever.
Some funny things about them, if normal cells are dividing at a rate of 1, cancer cells are diving at a rate of 1 million. if 1 cells can divide to 10, cancer cells can divide to 1 billion.
For every cell there is a gate, so you don't enter into another cell.
Cancer cells are like those boys driving Lexus ES 350 2009, they crash into everyone. something called METASTASIS
Cancer cells get so powerful, they dodge the soldiers, the body is trying to kill them. they are too powerful, too much, traveling at a speed of light.
BUT WHY DO CANCER CELLS happen?
from everything explained you will see anything that can damage cells can increase these cells from behaving abnormal
- From problem of the body itself, radiation, family history, some substances can directly cause the cells to cancer eg Asbestos used in Roof- Lung Cancer, smoking- lung and more, alcohol- liver cancer etc
we also know there are some viruses, bacteria etc that can make cells turn to cancer eg
HIV- Many cancers
H pylori- Cancer of the stomach
HPV- Cancer of the cervix, penis, oesophagus, throat and more....
so in summary you can see why anyone can have cancer, which are abnormal cells dividing abnormally and can travel distance anywhere....
But how do I reduce my risk of cANCER?
I will be dropping part 2
Please do share , repost, I will be glad to take questions.
Thanks
Once you learn how to shop directly from China, E.g Temù or shien your wardrobe changes completely. Call me cheap I don't care I ain't rich, I don't do fraud.😭
It's knowing what to search for.
Here's my style after making plenty of mistakes.
1. T-shirts:
Skip 100% polyester unless you're buying gym wear.
Instead, search:
• 100% Cotton
• Combed Cotton
• Heavyweight Cotton
• 240-300 GSM Cotton
• Premium Cotton
• Mercerized Cotton
The heavier the GSM, the thicker and more premium the shirt usually feels.
2. Jeans:
Denim Jeans
Temu is surprisingly good for denim if you know what to search.
Search:
• Denim Jeans
• Cotton Denim
• Raw Denim
• Selvedge Denim (if available)
• 98% Cotton + 2% Elastane
• 99% Cotton
Avoid jeans with high polyester content. The more cotton, the better they'll age and feel.
3. Body-hug clothing:
Search:
• Ribbed Knit
• Modal
• Viscose Blend
• Cotton-Spandex Blend
They hold their shape much better than cheap polyester.
4. Hoodies
Search:
• 400 GSM
• French Terry
• Cotton Fleece
• Heavyweight Hoodie
5. Chains
Search:
• 316L Stainless Steel
• Titanium Steel
• PVD Gold Plated
• Vacuum Plated
These are far more resistant to fading than ordinary fashion jewelry.
6. Earrings
Search:
• 925 Sterling Silver
• 316L Stainless Steel
• Hypoallergenic
• Moissanite (if you're buying stones)
7. Scarves
Search:
• Mulberry Silk
• Silk Blend
• Cashmere Blend
• Wool Blend
• Viscose
Avoid the shiny, thin polyester scarves if you're after a premium look.
8. Loafers
Search:
• Genuine Leather
• Cow Leather
• Full Grain Leather (rare but worth looking for)
• Rubber Outsole
9. Sneakers
Search:
• Rubber Outsole
• EVA Midsole
• Breathable Mesh
• Leather Upper
• Stitched Sole
Pictures lie a lot
The description usually tells the truth.
Here's how I shop:
1. Read the material composition before anything else.
2. Sort by Most Orders or Best Selling, not cheapest.
3. Only buy products with lots of reviews or pictures or even better when a Nigerian has purchased it before they always tell the truth.
4. Read the 1-star reviews first. They'll tell you what the seller won't.
5. Look at customer photos, not the product photos.
6. Check the weight of the product. Better quality clothing is often heavier.
7. Read the size chart. Don't assume your Nigerian size matches.
8. If the title has words like "luxury," "premium," or "designer" but the material is 100% polyester, not everything but still move on.
Your best friend isn't the product picture.
It's the material, the reviews, and the customer photos.
That's how you separate the gems from the junk.
I hope this help.
Things are to expensive for a country this poor.

In 2022, I went for evangelism at Mile One Market in Port Harcourt and preached the gospel to several people, including some street guys.
One of the street guys I spoke to was a DJ. I encouraged him to return to church, and he gave his life to Christ. He promised to change his ways and start attending church again.
A few years later, this same young man is now preaching the gospel and hosting crusades. 😭🤍 My heart is so full. I am beyond grateful to God.
It truly pays to preach the gospel.
You never really know what God is doing with the seeds you plant in the hearts of people each time you share His Word.
Never get tired of preaching the gospel. Many lives will be saved because of your obedience!
Can’t lie to you. If you don’t make a move, you will see literal clowns race past you. Clowns.
Nothing concern life with ‘I am a smart, educated, experienced person’.
You don’t act, you remain there.
You need boredom. A lot of it. Start by going on walks without music. No stimulation. No distractions of any kind. If you learn to sit with your own thoughts, for long enough, in time they will start serving you. You'll start having ideas once again. You'll start developing an extreme sense of clarity that will shift you into the next stage of your life. All by being bored, which is pretty insane.
