No matter how bad things are right now for you.
No matter how stuck you feel.
No matter how hopeless and depressed you feel.
I promise you won't feel this way forever.
You will win at the end but for now, KEEP GOING!!!
Emotional intelligence is also knowing that you don't need to necessarily say what's on your mind at certain times no matter how true or correct it might be.
I’m not what you’d call a religious man. Or even a traditional man. And this means I don’t have many deal breakers. My busy wife, for instance, doesn’t have to worry about doubling as our chef. But I have 3 dealbreakers. None of these will I negotiate.
Your mother is the only woman
capable of genuine empathy to your
struggles & pain.
And this is because she laboured the most for your love. She made sacrifices for you in your weakest state as a child. As such, she's used to you being weak.
Your wife on the otherhand didn't marry you, she married your strength.
If you slip off & become weak, you'll hate who your woman will turn into.
She saw other men & turned them down to be with you. It's because of your strength, not your weakness.
And that strength bested the advances of those other men she could have been with.
That is why she can't be genuinely
empathetic to your struggles or pain. She might feign empathy but one day the smokescreen will wear off, and you'll see another version of her. The version made to punish a man's weakness.
This is why you can't afford to be weak in your woman's eyes. You become weak by complaining & always telling her about your troubles. She's not your therapist. She sees you as her father (and indeed you are), not her son.
So you must be up to task. If you must tell her about your troubles, make sure you've dealt with them or you have a solution nearby.
Be wise!
You're not horny, you're just lonely
You're not lonely, you're just bored
You're not bored, you don't have a purpose
FIND YOUR PURPOSE & LET IT KILL YOU!
When a man marries, his bachelor friends respect his marriage & don't try to bring him back to the streets. Most times, they prevent him from going back there by teasing him with something like: "You're now a married man. You can't be moving like us. Go back to your wife"
But in contrast, when a lady marries, her single friends often seek to spoil her marriage, either by making comparisons/downplaying her new husband or giving bad marital advice.
A wise woman knows this & that's why she cuts off her single friends when she marries.
As a man, the best time to find love is when you are a student, during service or before you make money. Don't tell me you did not find love or women wouldn't date you when you had nothing. That is nonsense. You were focused on women who didn't want you or those who set their eyes on material things.
Your personality is enough and has always been enough to get you a babe. You just chose not to love the ones that actually loved you. You were chasing the women that didn't want you, then you lie to you're that it is because you didn't have money. That cements the fact you are a fool. That is why, when you become rich, as a rich fool that you are, you still go back to date the ones who ordinarily wouldn't date you when you had nothing. You don't know how to differentiate women for recreation from women for relationship and that is why you suffer.
If you need money to get any woman, she is not the woman you should be dating. That is why, when a richer guy approaches her, you start feeling insecure and fear she will leave you. That is also why when you finances have issues, you know you will chop disrespect and lose her because "you can't afford her" anymore. If you pay for love, you'll keep paying for love. Love is heartfelt. You can't pay for it.
On investing on your woman
There are different versions of tweets from women saying that a man that loves you, will invest on you. TRUE!
However, the woman you should invest on is the woman you dated when you had nothing who loved you genuinely and gave her heart and femininity to you. When life smiles on you, you don't start saying that nonsense of "outgrowing her." You use your resources to polish her and let her leverage on your success to climb up. In fact, this should be a two way street. Whoever makes it first, helps the other person up. To love is to invest yourself in another, for the best interest of your relationship.
Being rich, successful or famous will have women flocking at you. They don't love you. That is not love. They love what you offer and the idea of being with you. Their presence is premised on what you give them. With any of this, you'll have endless sex with endless women - whether you love or respect them or not. They know why they are there. You know why they are there. Ask yourself why they were not flocking around before you made it. Many men have improved themselves, began a career, grown their finances and decided to sponsor a nobody to school or send her abroad while sponsoring her education because "I love her", only for her to turn around and claim she fell in love with someone else or she has outgrown him. DONT DO IT!
In the past, this worked because society was more communal. Boys were raised to be masculine and responsible and women were raised to be feminine and family oriented. Moreso, you dont acvept things from strangers, so someome doing shit like that is already family snd is showimg commitment. Most times, they even married first and you grow from your husband's house. Families always did their background check to know who you are, how you were raised, the family you come from, the values they esteem. Everybody knew what they were getting into.
Now, it is shege upon shege and the woman you elevated would tell you she did not force or beg you to do it. If it is someone that actually loved you when you both had nothing, even if you end up not marrying for whatever reason, you be happy to spend money on her because she is a good woman regardless.
You have been in University where you were giving back to back doggy to women whose lovers were sponsoring their education. You have seen corpers whose fiancé were sponsoring co-habiting with another corper and sharing the money her lover sent. We have seen women brought abroad by men who loved them, sponsored her education only for her to turn around to say she fell in love with someone else or she has outgrown him. We have seen it play out in Nigerian schools too. Funny thing is, women will justify it and say "do you know if the relationship was abusive?" You are always abusive when they want to marry someone else. Women are not loyal to your sacrifice. They are loyal to their feelings.
Sponsor who loved you when you had nothing. Alternatively, sponsor only after you have married her. If you don't know what to do with money, put it in your sisters' accounts.
I do not believe that any of us have a dream that was not given to us
For the purpose of accomplishing those particular dream
No matter the odds
As you have been working towards that dream
But here is what I know
That, that dream you are holding in your mind
It's possible!
