Senator @EssyOkenyuri: Demands clear timelines on Nairobi’s pending bills during today’s Senate Finance & Budget Committee session with GVN @SakajaJohnson.
"Acknowledging obligations isn’t enough there must be firm commitment on when suppliers will be paid." #SenateOversight
The "Rule of Three" Strategy:
When that salary hits, don't just spend. Divide it:
1.Fixed Bills: Keep the lights on and rent paid.
2.Future You: Allocate a percentage to savings/investments first.
3.Lifestyle: Spend what remains guilt-free.
Discipline now equals freedom later

Give your mind a break. From people. From phones. From the constant hustle of life. Spend some alone time just with yourself. Do nothing. Be bored. Stare at a crack in the wall. Look out the window. Watch how shadows move. Listen to a piece of music that's 300 years old. Read Hegel. Read Aristotle. Read Dostoevsky. The minds that are still relevant today. Slow down enough to experience things deeply again. Don't consume something just because it's trending. Be loyal to your own curiosities. Your own interests. Your own idiosyncrasies. If you want to live a life that feels alive, protect the parts of yourself this world keeps trying to distract you from.
