“Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.”
— Dale Carnegie
You have to abandon shame if you have real ambitions in life. Shame will cripple you before you ever have a chance at achieving anything. Leave your pride and your shame in the bin.
The world does not need a billion suns. It needs stars and moons. Some people are the mountains, some the seas. Some stand as rivers, others trees. Your greatness is waiting for you to discover how it shines in the world and there's magic in knowing there's so much you can be.
In the next couple of months, we will have Dutch experts visit the South East to train our children in high-precision masonry, plumbing, welding, and carpentry.
We will start with these core skills and gradually expand into other relevant areas.
The first cohort will then pass on their training and knowledge to others as we scale the programme.
This is the generation that will build our society.
Today, I visited Albert Einstein’s birthplace in Ulm, Germany. Also nearby is Ulm Minster, the tallest church in the world.
The original building where Einstein was born was destroyed during the Second World War. A memorial now marks the exact location, ensuring that his birthplace and legacy are never forgotten.
Albert Einstein is the father of the theory of relativity, making him one of the greatest scientists the world has ever known.
This environment smells and feels like science.
There is something powerful about standing where one of the greatest scientific minds in human history began his journey.
If money wasn’t a problem, I’d probably spend my whole life studying.
A master’s in philosophy, then astrophysics, physics, ancient history, psychology… Whatever makes me understand this weird existence a little better.
Not for a career, not for a degree.
Just because there’s so much to know and one lifetime already feels too short.
ISEE HQ in Enugu is getting ready. All five South-Eastern states will have their representative offices here.
In 10 years, we will lead the African workforce.
Today, I visited Isaac Newton’s birthplace at Woolsthorpe Manor in England.
This was where Newton did some of his most important work, developing his ideas on gravity, calculus, and optics.
The famous apple tree still stands behind me, and right in front of me, an apple from that very tree fell.
Newton made these breakthroughs during a period when Cambridge University was closed because of the Great Plague, forcing him to return home to Woolsthorpe. That period became one of the most remarkable chapters in the history of science.
My focus on this journey is to understand, from first principles, how civilization was built. how ideas, discoveries, institutions, and individuals transformed human society.
I will also be visiting Albert Einstein’s birthplace in Ulm, Germany.
The journey continues.
