Let us talk about kidney failure in Nigeria.

A dialysis session costs between ₦50,000 and ₦100,000. You need three a week. That is about ₦600,000 a month.

And the money is just buying you time. Nobody is getting a cure at the end of ₦600,000 a month. 🧵

I was having a conversation with a friend and he asked me - "if someone promised you money, can you press them to fulfill the promise?"

I thought hard about it. Promises are made with good intentions. But sometimes, things happen that makes fulfillment impossible or delayed. However, you can send a reminder to the person in good conscience. You shouldn't be dragging them to fulfill the promise.

This is a counter to Frank Underwood who stated that, 'the nature of promises is that they are immune to changing circumstances.' This means that regardless of your personal issues or situation, you remain obligated to fulfil a promise made.

I understand the nature of humans and that is why I don't make promises. On the flip side, it is unfair to raise people's expectation with a promise, only to let them down, especially where that promise was made publicly.

Do not chase every gazelle in the savanna. Pick one, hunt with purpose. A focused spear brings a full supper.

“When the baobab bears fruit, the squirrel does not rush; it gathers wisely each day. So too, an entrepreneur grows by steady, focused steps, not by chasing every fleeting wind.”

[BLESSED @jaims_a]

Sharpen your machete before you enter the forest. A well-prepared hand cuts through more thorns and reaches the fruit faster.

[BLESSED @jaims_a]

A chameleon changes color to catch the sun, not to confuse the forest. Focus your energy on one goal, and the world will open its doors to you.

[BLESSED @jaims_a]

A hunter chasing two hares catches none. Focus your arrow, entrepreneur; a singular aim fills the pot.

[BLESSED @jaims_a]

The river does not rush but carves mountains; steady hands build empires. Focus on small, consistent actions—entrepreneurship’s true path to greatness.

[BLESSED @jaims_a]

A single spear pierces deeper than many scattered stones. Focus your energy on one task, and your harvest will surely fill the granary.

[BLESSED @jaims_a]

A wise entrepreneur plants seeds daily; the harvest comes not from waiting but from steady hands and patient roots. Work with focus, for even the tallest tree grows from small, consistent actions.

[BLESSED @jaims_a]

A kraal with too many gates will lose its cattle. Guard your focus, and your enterprise will flourish.

[BLESSED @jaims_a]

The hyena that chases two gazelles catches none. Focus your hunt, entrepreneur; a single, well-aimed stride brings the feast.

[BLESSED @jaims_a]

Even a mighty baobab grows from a tiny seed, watered daily. Consistent small efforts will yield your grandest harvest.

[BLESSED @jaims_a]

The wise lion does not chase every shadow. It fixes on its prey with singular focus. Entrepreneur, aim your energy at one vital task, and success will follow.

[BLESSED @jaims_a]

Many drops fill the pot, not a single one. Consistent effort builds an empire, not just a dream.

[BLESSED @jaims_a]

The termite mound is built grain by grain. Steady hands, day by day, build the entrepreneur's empire.

[BLESSED @jaims_a]

A chief chases one lion, not a hundred mice. Focus your strength, entrepreneur, and conquer your greatest challenge.

My way.

My kids have shorts on always Whenever they go to school. They must wear shorts under their school skirts and also under their dresses anytime they go to church or for an event.

You see that school own, I don't compromise it. My 7-year-old literally told her friend to ask her Mom to wear her shorts under her skirt because she was seeing her pant when she jumped on the slide at school😂😂

I was surprised when she told me her friend now wears short to school because she told her to. 😂

They also wear a camisole/spaghetti inside before wearing their school shirts.
And you can never see my kids wearing a short or skirt that is not on their knees or above it whenever they want to go out. And the skirt must still have a short underneath.

I guess I am old school. Train up a child in the way they should go. Trying to teach them modesty. And I pray they walk in it when they are grown too.

This babe wants a small wedding and I told her I want my dream wedding and to be a Bella Naija Groom. She is asking me how much I would contribute. It only costs N100m. Why would she be asking how much I would contribute when she knows I dont have money.

I'm thinking of leaving her. I deserve better.

When you were in primary 5, they told you that common entrance was hard. But when you got the opportunity, you wrote it and there was nothing there.

You entered JSS 1 and JSS3 students were making Junior WAEC look like rocket science. You entered JSS 3 and you took the exam. There was nothing there.

In SS 2, SS3 students made WAEC and JAMB look like rocket science. But you got to SS3, took it and passed.

They made University look like rocket science but you entered and passed the exams. Nothing there. They made Medical and Law school look like wall of Jericho. You got there and took it and passed.

People will always try to scare you with what you’ve not attempted. There is nothing there. You just haven’t attempted it. It is not because things are impossible that we do not dare, it is because we do not dare that things are impossible.
