I'm 54.
I wasted 24 years learning this the hard way. But I'll teach you in 5 minutes.
If you're soft, stop reading now.
Here are 24 uncomfortable truths I wish I knew earlier:
Food for Thought!
THOSE WHO CROWN KINGS DO NOT LOOK LIKE KINGS ; BEWARE !
There was this poor man who wrote a book at the age of 40 and decided to launch it on his birthday.
He had no money to fund the launching, and so, he decided to seek help from a millionaire in his community.
He made a visit to the Millionaire's home, and after they exchanged pleasantries, he told his host what brought him.
The Millionaire told him to take out a piece of paper and pen.
He said, " I will give you a test. If you pass it, I will give you the money you need, and if you fail, I will still give you the money"
He then told him to write down the names of 10 people who could give him 10k each for his book during the launch.
Surprisingly, the man could not write even 3 names.
Now, take a glass of water and let me tell you something..
It is not enough to have talent and skills. You must understand the power of building valuable relationships.
It was a wise man who said, "Your network is directly proportional to your net worth."
Relationship is a currency.
Relationship is a stream of income. Everything in this life actually reproduces on the basis of relationships.
See eh, who likes you in this life matters.
Men are lifted through men.
Many of us are talented, but we lack a cup bearer to tell the King that there is a Joseph that can interpret dreams.
Who you know matters a lot in this life.Don't say it doesn't matter. It does.
There are heights and opportunities you will never attain if you don't understand the power of Keeping Valuable Relationships.
When they say, turn and greet your neighbor at times, you don't even know who you are talking to .
That might be the CEO of a company. But sometimes, *we despise people based on their outward looks and judge them wrongly.
Have this wisdom I'm sharing with you.
That person you sit with in class, or the colleagues at work that you look down on, may be the ones that will lead you to your destiny helper because you have no idea who they know.
Sometimes, it takes just a recommendation to change your story.
Don't despise men in life. You will need them one day.
Sometimes, those who crown Kings don't look like kings and may never become kings, but they can help you wear the crown.
Again, shut the door of the relationship gently. You may need to use it tomorrow.

How to clean your heart! @DrHaifaaYounis says it in the best way she normally does. As one of our best Muslim scholars, she always keeps her messages simple and easy to understand. Please watch and thank me later

Professor Abdi Samatar teaching a master-class….(post colonial Africa) and I’m here for it. No patronizing attitude here….just facts.
Brilliant. Refreshing.
There. I said it.
U CANNOT SATISFY A WOMAN, SO DON'T KILL URSELF FOR THEM
No matter what u do for a woman, when she is angry; she will ask u what have u even done for me?
Check this out.
GOD gave them eyebrows 👉🏾 they shave it & draw their own.
He gave them nails 👉🏾 they cut it off & fixed their own.
He gave them hair 👉🏾 they cut it off & fixed their own.
He gave them breast 👉🏾 they repackage it to the size & shape they want.
GOD also gave them lips 👉🏾 every morning they paint it with different colours of lip stick
It's in their nature never to be satisfied.
If GOD can't satisfy them, then who are u to think u can please them?
Tell our men not to kill themselves for women. Everything was created in the garden by GOD, yet the devil still got her through fake promises.
Pls am begging u to kindly share this reality to all men in ur contact before they die of High blood pressure.
Depression is real. Always mind about the state of your friends.
