Always prepare internally FIRST,
Your external life will thank you,
Do not judge your external life
And do not judge your internal you,
True freedom is when you realise that you are the person in you not the circumstances outside of you,
Be at peace,
Humanity needs you
I'll die on this hill...
There is absolutely no reason you should touch paid ads until you're doing $5 to $10 million in revenue.
Learn how to create demand organically through content, partnerships, and outreach first. That's enough to take you to that 5-10M mark. Then once that engine is running, layer ads on top.
If you do it the other way around you risk getting eaten up by rising ad costs before your margins can absorb it.
The older I get the more I suspect that the worst part about going to hell is realizing that God had entirely rigged the game in your favor and yet you still somehow found a way to lose.
A quote I fall back on in hard times:
“Anxiety is the greatest evil that can befall a soul except sin. God commands you to pray, but He forbids you to worry.” St. Francis de Sales
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.
Hurts me to say this: Africa will not be saved by entrepreneurship. We cannot vibecode ourselves into the 4th industrial revolution. We still need to industrialize. To achieve this, we need stronger and better public institutions. We need extremely competent leaders at the helm.
