I went ahead and built it.
This idea is now a business with 6 team members, hundreds of paying customers across 17 countries, 21,000+ Pewbeam downloads, 41,500+ live presentation sessions, and two products: Pewbeam and Pewnote.
All within 5 months of launch. This week, revenue grew 226.8% WoW.
And Pewbeam can now send scripture and slide to the screen hands-free in under 20ms, 100× faster than the 2-second target I started with.
I graduated with a 4.99/ 5.00 CGPA in Hospitality and Tourism from Federal University of Agriculture (FUNAAB), setting a new record as the first in my department, college and the University.
Had A's all through with a single B .🏆
We spent months tracking 5,467 bets from Nigeria's biggest sports betting influencers.
The bets were worth ~$4.8 million.
We wanted to answer a simple question:
If you followed their bets exactly, would you make money?
The answer is no.🧵👇

I built the Nigerian Literature Archive for the books many of us grew up reading and the ones we may have forgotten.
From Ige Adubi to Ralia the Sugar Girl, Eze Goes to School and more, it’s a small way to preserve and rediscover Nigerian literature.

Nobody tells you this: The speed at which you recover from a mistake matters more than whether you make one. Everyone makes mistakes. The gap between 'I messed up' and 'here's what I'm doing about it' is where winners separate from everyone else. Compress that gap.
Have you seen someone who's less smart, less prepared, less qualified than you and still winning? You know they aren't that talented, but still they're achieving bigger things than you. That's Yhprum's law in action. It's when everything that should go wrong somehow works out just because they dare and keep going. You're sitting there overthinking, planning, doubting yourself while they're out there doing things relentlessly, imperfectly, shamelessly. You know we think that success follows logic, good school, smart ideas, right timing, but most of the people who win didn't follow a map, they just didn't stop. They're not better than you. They just didn't care if they looked stupid. They failed, they spoke up, they made mistakes in public. And while you waited to feel ready, they already built something. The reason people win isn't because it makes sense. It's because they move fast while you were still trying to find logic in everything
there is a legit "1st 20hr" theory in which if you lock in for the first 20 hour to learn something (ofc with intervals) you can be decently good at it
I love this video. It helps with my appreciation of comparative cultural contexts. However, how does one differentiate between humility and humble bragging relative to the Chinese approach to compliment?
I might be feeling too sensitive about this. I just see my ex daughter in law doing things like this to my three granddaughters regularly. Always tiny lies and manipulations to achieve her goal and keep them doing what she wants. They are such good little girls but the manipulations mess with their minds.
