1.Your shoes should be darker than your trousers. It makes your outfit look cleaner and more put together.
2.Don’t mix silver and gold. If you’re wearing silver, keep your watch, chain, rings, and belt buckle silver too.
https://t.co/I3FvlCqG1K >>> Brand. A cheap shirt that fits well will always look better than an expensive one that doesn’t.
4.Your trousers should rest lightly on your shoes. Too much fabric bunching at the bottom looks messy.
5.Stick to 2-3 colors. Too many colors can ruin an outfit.
6.Posture = Attractiveness. Your shoulders change how people see your face. Stand upright, keep your shoulders back, and you’ll instantly look more confident and attractive.
7.Your clothes should fit your shoulders properly. If the shoulders are too big, the whole outfit looks off.
8.Grooming comes first. A good haircut, neat beard, and clean nails make a huge difference.
9.Balance your outfit. If your shirt is oversized, keep your trousers slimmer. If your trousers are baggy, keep the top fitted.
10.Less is more. Your accessories should complement your outfit, not compete with it.
“You may think men are abundant, but once you start searching for a husband, you’ll realize they are actually quite scarce. If you have a good man in your life, cherish and worship him, because he’s like a second god to you,” a Nigerian woman advises other women.
You have to be extremely self aware for this as a man. You have to have the ability to sit with very uncomfortable truths about your parents, esp your father as a man, a husband & a parent. This is a very uncomfortable & disturbing process, given most men are avoidants!

This is the truth many married people don’t want to hear 🔥
Marriage is not a certificate of wisdom.
A bad marriage doesn’t make you an expert, it just makes you married.
Plenty of married people are suffering in silence and still giving terrible advice.
Your marital status doesn’t validate nonsense. Experience is not the same as wisdom.
PepsiCo hands its board members a $200,000 retainer every year. Paid in shares, not cash.
For six years, one of those board members was a Nigerian. Segun Agbaje, the GTCO boss. Every year, more stock quietly added to his name.
He stepped down last month. The filings show he walked away with 17,557 PepsiCo shares. Around $3 million, call it ₦4 billion.
He didn't buy his way in. The seat paid him in ownership.
A salary stops the day you leave. Equity follows you out the door.
There’s a scene in Breaking Bad where Walter White’s wife realizes he’s made $7.5 million and says:
“There’s no way we can wash this money through a car wash. No car wash in the world makes that kind of money in a year.”
That line hit me. Because it exposes a truth most people ignore: How much you earn is capped by the kind of business you run.
You can work harder, stay longer, even get smarter - but you’ll never make more than what your business model is designed to carry.
He was out of the country for 3 weeks.
The longest 3 weeks of his life and he didn’t even know it yet.
Before he left, he installed a small camera. The kind that looks like a bulb. Just for security, he told himself. Peace of mind.
It gave him the opposite.
He watched from thousands of miles away as his wife walked another man into their home. Not just the house but the bedroom. Their bedroom. The bed they built their life on.
The man was in his early 20s.
He didn’t sleep that night. Or the next.
When he came back, he said nothing. He just knew. Something in him had already died on the other side of that screen.
He called her family. They gathered, concerned, asking all the right questions…what happened, when did things change, talk to us.
He sat there and said nothing.
Because how do you explain that you watched it? That you have it on footage? That every time you look at her you see exactly what she did and exactly who she did it with in your own house, in your own bed?
Some things break a man quietly.
No shouting. No confrontation. Just a hollowness that moves in and never leaves.
He wants a divorce.
And the saddest part?
He can’t even find the words to say why.
Today in 1973, the greatest horse race in history was run.
Secretariat won the Belmont Stakes by 31 lengths to become the Triple Crown winner and set a world record time that has never been beaten!

This last time I visited my man. We were chatting, and I didn't tell him I was on my way. I told him I won't be visiting him anytime soon sef. Even when he told me he was going out and I was almost at his house. I still did not tell him. I got there, the gate was locked, and I stood at the gate for hours. I knew where he went. Until his neighbour came back and opened the gate. So I entered and sat at the staircase and waited an extra hour. We kept chatting all through, and he didn't know I was waiting for him at home. When he got back and saw me standing on the balcony upstairs. He jumped up in joy 😊.
That expression is priceless. It's exactly what I wanted to see.
The journey was a 3hrs journey. Almost had an accident.
Things we do for love.
