I think it is just due that I spin a 🧵for ambitious/career/beautiful women currently making their bread.
Take this from a brother.
There's a strain of men who deploy a particularly psychological tool, you should discern against.
They won't like this tweet but I'll explain.
I saw someone say the art of conversation is so lost that people have started mistaking it for love and that’s sooo real. I be having good conversations with men they often think it’s me flirting and I genuinely be confused like have you never just had a deep platonic convo??
Saw a tweet about the homogenization of romance. How all marriage proposals + Valentine’s Day look the same because of social media. Which brings back my thought that most desires are created. And SM has put people out of touch with their personal desires in everything.
I think millennials stopped posting on IG, bc they started overthinking it. A person will watch every story, but their last post was in 2014. The app is for images/and now videos. Get back to the basics. Post the sunrise. Not everytime a photoshoot.
That said, I’m a religious man. Im a traditional man, in fact. For love, I’ll go to war for you; I’ll be reasonable with most things and will prioritize ‘us’—that is my religion. But I have my principles. And sometimes obeying them is the death of ‘us’—that is my tradition.
Something just happened about two hours ago. I asked my 5 yr old son to get me water. He brought it and I forgot to say "Thank you"
He said "Daddy, what should you say?" and I replied "Thank you"
He asked this question because that's what I would do too if I gave him something and he refuses to appreciate it.
If I fart and he's around, I apologize. I tell him how much I love him all the time too. Some times, when I fall asleep on the couch in the living room, he would bring cover cloth, cover me and give me a kiss on the cheek. I didn't tell him to do any of these. He does them because I do it for him too.
My point, we need to be responsible if we want to raise responsible children too. Make them feel respected and valued and they'll grow with that mentality.
Tainkyu 😊

Lynching instant gratification when you start stacking your coins will set the course of your life aright
A hustling man's biggest enemy is lifestyle inflation
The goal is to earn more for a long time while maintaining the same lifestyle
This is how you scale tangibly.
Short Thread: Might be unrelated but One thing I’ve learned in life is God will bless what you have in your hands.
Many times while believing God for something, we need to keep moving forward even though what we currently do might look like a totally different direction.

One of my biggest win in 2023.
I met a white lady at the pub in July, she’s a single mum but just 33.
You know how people blame their situation on the fact that they had kids and all. It was same with her.
She’s been in & out of court and the police station with the father of her two kids
It is salary week, let us learn our basic labour rights as employees together:
1. You cannot be sacked by your employer after you have submitted your resignation letter.
2. You cannot submit a resignation letter after you have been sacked.
3. Your employer cannot refuse to accept your letter of resignation.

4. Your employer cannot deduct your salary as a punishment for something you did wrong at work (e.g. lateness) except if your contract of employment permits this. Otherwise, it is illegal.
5. Your employer is bound to pay your complete salary when it is due. He is not doing you a favour by paying your salary. You are not expected to beg or request for the salary before it is paid.
6. If your employer suspends you, you are entitled to receive your full salary for the entire suspension period except where the suspension letter or employee handbook expressly states that you won't receive salary while on suspension.

You are welcome.
I strongly believe that most men need to HEAL. Most of them don't look like one who carries emotional baggage. They try to pull through & look strong but they are bleeding inside of them & the next lady they meet, suffers for the pain another lady cost them.
Many men are having more mental health issues compare to women. Many men commit suicide becos of depression, false rape allegations, Paternity fraud, defrauded of their hard earned money, and what have you. That's why when people complain about DEPRESSION, focus on the men MORE!! —Cos these men are told to not show emotions but "BE A MAN'. So they are quiet about so many things.
Reasons why men will always need some space to reflect with deep thoughts on how to sort certain responsibilities. A man may want you around, but may not really have your Time. That doesn't mean he dos love you, he just need some space to think.
Some of you ladies will complain that "BlessedGirl, my man doesn't open up to me", but the last time he did, you used it against him. Now he's closed off, you're complaining he doesn't open up. Some of you, when he opens up, you start saying "My man is too emotional, I need a man that can handle his shit himself." But when he goes to his mother everytime you'll still complain. 🤷♀️ 🤦♀️This is one of the reasons most men value their mothers so much that they'll rather listen to her than you his wife. Cos his mother is the only one that sees his vulnerability, encouraged him & prays for him.
Ladies we need to do better.
A man can be passing through a lot but you'll never know. He'll even be smiling. When you greet him "How far bro!?" He'll smile & tell you he's fine. Until you hear that this same brother died of heart pain or committed suicide.
Men need to HEAL!💊💊
My opinion though🤷♀️💯
I first stumbled on this video 2 years ago - this is still one of the best pieces of advice I've scripted my life after.
Aspirations beget aspirations - if you tie your happiness to the fulfillment of an aspiration, you'll never truly be happy.
When God gives you a Ride-or-Die, don’t kill them with your selfishness and pride.
Don’t push their patience and perseverance to the limits.
Don’t kill their spark because they chose to stick with you.
Don’t take their life cos they chose to ride with you.
Don’t be a fool!
