@alibi_2_1@EtubomSmith@gunzify0 You can't really suppress it even. Every hot topic and trend online is seasonal. When your matter comes up again, that video you thought you've wiped off will resurface. It might not circulate much this time because netizens have seen seen it already.
Dear men,
It impresses upon my soul to write to you.
This writing is inspired by my consumption of a lot of Diogenes' work but one quote of his that massively influenced my value system, reads:
"It is the privilege of the gods to want nothing, and of godlike men to want little".
It imprinted upon my soul for a long time, especially as someone that's ambitious.
Friends, verily I say unto you:
Ambition is good but nothing is more frustrating to a man that for him to exist at the edge of a precipice where there are more factors out of his control, than within his control.
Endless chase in ambition without a defined scope is outside your control & with every season you have a new high to chase without a moment to enjoy where you are.
It becomes easy to discard your present as a valley as you glare at a new high, forgetting that your current valley used to be a mountaintop you aspired to.
I guess the point I'm trying to make is, have a number in mind. Especially as an ambitious person, have a number in mind.
The endless pursuit of ambition will leave you with a hollow soul. It will strip you of the beauty of momentary happiness, satisfaction of wins & incredible undervaluation of how far you've come.
As a young hustling man, it is important that you define what happiness and success looks like for you, and to do so early on.
The ultimate question now becomes:
Are you in control of your dreams? Or are your dreams in control of you?
The answer to this question is a predictor of your future happiness or lack thereof.
I hope my writing found you well.
As you were.
@afrisagacity Isn't this good proof that Nigerians are incapable of ruling themselves? You'd think someone who's lived a tough life because of their leaders would be a difference maker once they got into a position of power. We don't hate corruption, we hate that we are not benefiting from it
@elzo_black@BerlofMonaco It's not a coping mechanism, nigerians are just plain stup!d. All they care about is laughs Nd engagements. Our leaders are very lucky.
@CeodeDionis It's really globalization. Countries are losing their distinct cultural and geographical aesthetics. From clothing to architecture, it's increasingly becoming harder to even tell you've moved from Country A to Country B just by looking around.
