3 most important things you'll learn on your own as a man
1. How to sit with loneliness without breaking
2. How to forgive betrayal without becoming bitter
3. How to believe in yourself when nobody does
You'll learn these on the battlefield not in the classroom
Poverty is the worst thing that can happen to any human. You'll belittle yourself. You'll humiliate yourself. It's degrading, your dignity takes a knock. I pray we all win against this thing called poverty.
Don't spend like them if you don't earn like them. Don't be afraid to tell your friends, “Leave me out, I can not afford it.” Even if you do earn like them, always remember that households/family situations are not the same. And people’s financial strengths are not equal. Move at your own pace.
As men, in as much as we have to show each other tough love e.g
•You need to step up
•Man up
•You're slacking
Which is very good, it keeps us focused. But at the same time, we also need show love to each other appreciation, it goes a long way e.g
•I'm inspired bro
•I'm proud of you
•I see you bro
Give a brother his flowers, it also goes a long way
Never stop re-inventing yourself, trying new things until you get it right. Try the job market, try the entrepreneurship market, try everything, until you find success.
As a man when you know of a job opportunity, plug a brother. Stop this thing of plugging women in hopes that you'll plug them later
Help a man with a job, there's 99% chance that if you bump into him a year later he'll buy you a drink
Help a woman with a job, there's a 99% chance that in a month she won't even remember you
Be a brother's keeper.
You die owing time you thought you had. Death won't wait for you to finish. Not your plans. Not your thoughts. No warning. No climax. And the world won't pause. So as long as you're alive, LIVE. Make everyday worth remembering.
When you tell a woman to block another guy
What she hears is - Please babe I'm afraid of that guy, he's better than me
Conclusion - if she had any doubts about that guy, you've just confirmed to her, she should choose him
Lesson - women are turned off by weakness
Reality - if she really respects you, she'd never entertain other men
Easiest way to know if a tv series, anime or movie is good or bad, just observe who likes or hates it. If women hate it, it's good and if they like it, it's bad.
