There is a skill that I want you to start practising and learning.
It is the skill of learning to say a boatload of nothing.
Yes! A boatload of nothing.
You will get to some situations in life where people want to nail you to a cross. No matter the kind of stance you take, you are between the devil and the deep blue sea. So you have to learn how to say "nothing" in many words.
Every time someone says shit like ‘no one owes you anything’ I keep my mouth shut because I owe people a lot. I stand on shoulders of people smarter than me, people who held my hand when I didn’t think it was worth holding and people who gave me a chance when no else did.
Learning a skill is very hard but the day you get paid for it, it starts feeling like you always knew what you were doing na all that while ilikuwa guesswork, you just guessed right.
There’s this thing in psychology called the paradox of choice. The more options you have,the harder it is to choose and even after choosing,you still second guess. That’s why we spend so long scrolling Netflix and end up watching nothing.
