Michelle Obama: I'm going to take a little time to do something that I know my husband will not do today, and that is to fully sing his praises. Barack, you gotta look at me
Barack Obama: No. I’m going to look down.
Last February, I shared a short romance story here on X, and the love it received was impossible to ignore, especially all the comments saying, “We want a book with these two characters.”
So I listened. I’ve been writing that book ever since, and it’s finally with my editor 🥹.
“To be successful at anything, you don’t have to be special. You just have to be what most people aren’t: consistent, determined and willing to work for it. No shortcuts.”

My friend Humphrey Wattanga came to KRA as its Commissioner General with the highest credentials of any occupant of that office since. But he came in tiptoeing quietly, served his term quietly & has left quietly. KRA is yet to be transformed as a catalyst for economic change. Instead, it remains a Government ATM! Public leadership at its top echelons like KRA CG demands an individual that comes in & leaves real change that is visible, verifiable & impactful. Sadly, my friend has left KRA where it was. I had so much faith in Humphrey. As he leaves like a thief in the night, am sad that maybe we expect too much from those with impeccable academic credentials. Maybe whom we need is a village bulldozer not an ALLIANCE BOY!
The US does not possess infinite political capital, bandwidth, military capacity or economic resilience.
Every resource expended in Iran represents energy diverted from the true tectonic challenges defining the 21st century.
My take:
A man who studies his own patterns with brutal honesty eventually becomes harder to manipulate, because once he understands where he typically bends, panics, or seeks comfort, he can anticipate his own weaknesses and close the gaps before someone else exploits them.
