Live with purpose. Pursue something worthwhile beyond pleasure and comfort.
Build a business. Raise a family. Serve your country (there are many ways to serve Nigeria without joining politics. However, join politics if you can). Advance a cause. Lead your community. Honor God and his values.
Purpose gives direction.

Young King,
If you have been attentive, you would have realised that these are the things I’ve been trying to bring to your consciousness. I want you to be a true King.
My daughter knows I love her deeply, but I don't hesitate to discipline her when she crosses the line. Last night, after a serious talk-down, I sent her upstairs to her room.
Tell me why this little girl woke up this morning and one of the first things she asked was, “Dad, why didn't you come upstairs to pray and kiss me last night?”
We spent almost ten minutes talking about what happened the previous night, and the girl calmly told me she was wrong, but that I was wrong for not coming upstairs to pray and kiss her.
Once again, I got reminded that we shouldn't be so angry with the people we love that we stop showing them love and care.
Sometimes we want things to go our way, but God’s plan is still the best. His thoughts for us are for good. Believe, even when there are no reasons to.

Nothing irritates me more than people who abandon ship the moment things get difficult. Loyalty means nothing if it only exists when everything is comfortable.
One thing many women look for in men is desirability. A lot of women naturally pay attention to men who are also desired by other women. I learned this a long time ago when I was still on the street, when I was still in the world.
I was hanging out with one pretty lady and one of my old female friends walked into the restaurant with a group of her very attractive friends. After they all hugged and greeted me, I noticed my new friend started giving me more green light and being more affectionate. The rest, they say, is history.
Every time I remember that incident, I thank Ada for showing up when she did. Her act was like a Mikel Obi’s pass. Gentle and precise.
The perceived ‘bad guy’ will always be admired by some ladies. It is what it is.
