2 years ago, i got my PhD after a total of 15 years at the university leading to these degrees:

-BSc Chemistry
-MSc Analytical Chemistry
-MSc Ecotoxicology
-PhD Ecotoxicology

I thought achieving the PhD would be the most challenging endeavour i faced until my first job. Thread!

I was a bit to deploy my startup website in 1 day using Claude. I had the business idea last week and Claude built the website and deployed it online in hours.

Truly the future is now and it is for those who have the capacity to execute ideas!!!

🚀 Announcing the Release of My New Book "How to Win Fully Funded Scholarships with a Low GPA or Study Gap" 🚀

Earlier this week, I spoke with Wale, who, with a 2.99/5.0 GPA, followed my scholarship tips for years. Today, he’s pursuing his master’s in Europe with a fully funded Erasmus Mundus scholarship!

But that’s not all. Consider Adekunle. Despite graduating with a low GPA and experiencing a study gap, he followed the strategies I’ve shared in my book and has now secured over $50,000 in scholarships to study in South Korea.

These stories are just two examples of how low GPAs or study gaps don’t have to stand in the way of securing fully funded scholarships. That’s why I’m excited to announce the release of my new book, How to Win Fully Funded Scholarships with a Low GPA or Study Gap (190+ Pages).

What You’ll Get:

Proven strategies to secure fully funded scholarships even with a low GPA or study gap.

List of scholarships and institutions accepting students with a minimum of 2.0/4.0 GPA.

Practical templates for SOPs, waivers, and cold emails that get noticed.

Step-by-step guidance for crafting winning applications that stand out.

Bonus: With proof of purchase, you’ll get FREE access to our exclusive Fireside Chat, scheduled for March 28th, where I’ll share insider tips to help you further strengthen your applications!

👉 Order Your Copy Now via https://t.co/X7CdAcdcBC and start your journey toward a fully funded scholarship today!

💥 Share the opportunity! Get your copy now and let your friends benefit from these life-changing strategies too.

[Oluwaseun Ajayi, Ph.D. 🇳🇬 🇺🇸 @matajson]

The fifth rule of scholarship is this: you don’t apply because everyone else is applying. Your choice should be guided by requirements, fit/portfolio, values, and career plans. At times, job and immigration opportunities in the host country also matter.

Navigating life post-PhD or post-Grad school?

Strategy is to a company what Intention is to a person.

A business without a strategy is just a group of people keeping busy. A person without a strategy is just a collection of habits waiting for life to happen to them.

Don't just work hard, design the "why" behind the work🎯

[Toyyib Adewale Adelodun @taadelodun]

My old life died in a psychiatric ward, including the illusion of importance.

You are not the main character. I know, because I disappeared for 5 months and the world didn't notice.

Here are the lessons that reshaped my entire understanding of life:

1. You realise the world is not waiting for you.

A particular song was No.1 on the charts the night I was admitted.
When I finally got my phone back months later, that song had fallen to the bottom.

My voicemails went from dozens… to silence… to the few people who stayed.

Nobody was cruel. Nobody abandoned me. They just.. lived

The world didn't pause not for me, and won't for anyone.

And strangely… that realisation was liberating.
We spend so much time performing importance,
but life moves with or without our presence.

2. Mental health breakdowns can happen to anyone, and we must talk about it.

Inside the hospital were teenagers, new parents, professionals, people who looked "successful."
people who never imagined they would end up in psychiatric care.

Burnout. Trauma. Exhaustion.
Mental illness does not discriminate.
It does not care about your CV, your reputation, or your bravery.

When we break bones, we go to the hospital.
But when we break down, we suffer in silence.
That needs to change.

3. The most humbling moment was a small envelope of cash.
I had money in my pocket the night I was admitted.
I forgot it existed.

Months later, they handed it back to me at discharge.
It felt like a philosophy lesson placed quietly in my hands:

Life can stop in a single moment,
and everything you cling to becomes irrelevant 
or becomes someone else's.

The world does not belong to us.
We only borrow our time here.

Those 5 months gave me :

A quieter ego.
A deeper gratitude.
A second life.
A promise to live with intention, not pressure.
Presence over perfection.

As the famous quote goes:
"Every man has two lives, and the second begins when he realises he has only one."

My second life started in that ward.

I share real stories about resilience, purpose, and life lessons that they don't teach in school.

Follow for more insights on growing through what you go through.🙏
