I've been away from X for a while, so before I start posting again, I think I owe you a proper reintroduction. 🧵

[Adeyanju Oluwabusola @TheBusolaA]

@eny_codes That's right

[Adeyanju Oluwabusola @TheBusolaA]

I agree with the part about taking responsibility for your own growth.
Nobody is coming to build the life you want for you. The small things you choose to do consistently today can make a big difference tomorrow.
Start where you are, keep learning, and keep moving.

[Okorie Ogechi jane @okorieogechija1]

There is no humility in being poor;

There is no trophy for giving excuses and being comfortable doing nothing;

You are accountable for yourself,
do something today, your future self will be grateful for.

The most peaceful transition in life is moving from "I need to explain myself" to "you can believe whatever you want." You save so much energy when you stop trying to correct people’s false narratives about you.

Let people think what they want while you keep building in peace.

[Adeyanju Oluwabusola @TheBusolaA]

@Emmanuel1189988 Not every misunderstanding needs a response, and not every false narrative needs to be corrected.
Sometimes peace is simply accepting that people will believe what they want while you keep living your life.

@ummyhafsy Goodnight

[Ummyhafsy @ummyhafsy]

Good night

Before you sleep, remember this:

You may not have done everything you planned today.

That's okay.

✓ Maybe you made progress.
✓ Maybe you learned something.
✓ Maybe you simply kept going when you wanted to give up.

That counts too.

Don't spend tonight beating yourself up over what went wrong.

Learn from today, forgive yourself and try again tomorrow.

Rest.

Tomorrow is another chance to become a little better than you were today.

Sleep well.

[Emmanuel @Emmanuel1189988]

The fastest way to ruin a good plan is trying to execute five other ideas at the exact same time. Multitasking is just an illusion that lets you do several things poorly at once.

Pick the single highest-leverage task, lock in until it's finished, and ignore the rest.

I get the point, but I don't completely agree.
Referrals and connections matter, but you still have to put yourself in positions where people can know and trust your work.
If I hadn't applied for opportunities that gave me real experience, how would the people I've worked with know my abilities well enough to refer me?
Some of the opportunities I've interviewed for even came through people I've worked with.
So yes, we need opportunities and connections. But sometimes applying is how you create the connections that eventually lead to referrals.

[Adeyanju Oluwabusola @TheBusolaA]

@Ayanfebaba_1 This is such an important lesson. You can care deeply about someone and still understand that their choices and responsibilities are theirs to carry.
Sometimes the healthiest thing you can do is support without trying to take over.

@hy_wemmy It's really underrated

[Adeyanju Oluwabusola @TheBusolaA]

Closing out Tuesday. 🌙

If today was another application, a follow-up, tweaking your CV, or simply trying to stay consistent while you wait

It counts.

The job search doesn't always move as quickly as we'd like. 😭

But every application teaches you something.
Every conversation adds something.
And every step keeps you moving.

So don't let one slow day make you feel like you're standing still.

Rest tonight. 💛

Tomorrow, we go again.
See you at 6am 😊

[Whemïmor @hy_wemmy]

Being able to stay home, eat good food and mind your business is actually a very underrated life.

[Adeyanju Oluwabusola @TheBusolaA]

The goal isn't to get just any job.

It's to find an opportunity that actually makes sense for you.

I know the pressure to just take something can be real, especially as a fresh graduate.

You see people around you getting jobs and you start wondering if you should just accept the next thing that comes your way.

But sometimes, saying yes to the wrong opportunity just because you don't want to keep waiting can cost you more in the long run.

I'm learning to be patient while still doing the work:

Keep applying.
Keep learning.
Keep building.
Keep preparing.

The right opportunity may take longer than expected.

But while I'm waiting for it, I don't want to stop becoming ready for it.

[Emmanuel @Emmanuel1189988]

Most people suffer twice: once in their imagination when overthinking a problem, and once in reality when it actually happens. Half the battles you fight in your head will never even take place.

Keep your mind on today's tasks and let tomorrow handle its own variables.

[Etiedu🌸 @EtieduArch]

Being able to handle your own emergencies is a kind of freedom you don't fully appreciate until you've had to depend on someone else.
