When you walk with Progress, he doesn't ask you, "How far have we gone?" Because he knows a small step forward is still a victory. He asks, "Did we move today?"
There's something poverty and hopelessness do to a person.
You find yourself binge-watching, binge-eating, and constantly looking for an escape.
You're hungry, angry, restless... all at once.
Poverty is a bastard
That wife you allowed to remain fat in marriage, hiding behind the excuse of childbirth, will snap back into shape the moment she divorces you.
You think childbirth is a lifetime ticket to obesity and losing your figure? Watch how intentional and disciplined she suddenly becomes the moment the divorce is finalized.
You keep letting women punish you. Yes, pregnancy can cause temporary weight gain, but you must ensure she works on her body afterwards. Stop allowing her to stay fat. She knows being overweight is unattractive, BUT she just doesn’t care because you refuse to lead and hold her accountable.
Give her a clear timeline to get back in shape. Do not tolerate complacency. Stop letting these women shame you with their "before divorce and after divorce" videos.
Wake up, Nigerian men. They know exactly what they’re doing. Stop giving them too much grace.
Above all, love God.
A poor man's children don't jump on him to play with him when he is around. They only watch him quietly. But a rich man's children are always around him, playing with his beard when he is at home. Now I understand why.
I went to refill my gas cylinder this morning.
I met the owner and told him I wanted to buy 5kg of gas.
He weighed my cylinder and started refilling it.
Somehow, he ended up filling 5.5kg instead of 5kg.
He weighed the cylinder again and told me I would have to pay for the extra half kg.
The price was ₦1,700 per kg, so I was supposed to pay ₦8,500 for 5kg.
But because of his mistake, he insisted that I should pay ₦9,350.
I told him I didn't have the extra money with me.
He took the cylinder, released half a kg of gas into the air, and then handed it back to me. 😢
Why are some people like this??? 🥹💔
Imagine this to be someone who has been working tirelessly just to keep up with a ₦600K annual rent. Then, all of a sudden, the rent is increased to ₦1.5M. How is that person expected to cope?
This is exactly why I keep saying, don't wait until you can afford land in a fully developed area. Buy where you can genuinely afford today, even if it's an underdeveloped location, and start building a house you can realistically complete in phases.
Rent will keep increasing, but once you own your land, nobody can wake up one morning and increase the price of it. The earlier you start, the earlier you begin securing your future housing stability.
