God over Everything

[👑S.A.L.A.K.O🕊 @UnkleAyo]

I don't have 30 mins to get on a call with you but I can share these tips with you. Trust me, I know my stuff.

1. If you're applying to a particular lab or team. Research their last 3 publications & use it to amp up your talking points.

2. Every detail you share about yourself has to br around your skillset. What you can do, what you have done. Nobody cares about your family problem.

3. If the PhD already has a research problem & you've formulated your proposal. Be able to explain that proposal in 30 seconds, 2 mins, 10 mins. Time and train yourself for this. This way, you rip out a lot of filler junks.

4. To every question they ask, script your response as a scientific answer. Start with the problem, feed it into an hypothesis, detail an approach, postulate a finding - most importantly, propose possible limitations.

5. Go to the interview with your own questions. It communicates confidence. Ask them: "Realistically, what do you expect a candidate to achieve in 12 months?"

6. Don't oversell yourself. You're not Einstein. The people you're talking to, also don't know everything. They don't expect you to know everything. So when you're asked a question that you don't know an answer to, your main goal is to communicate how you think when you don't know an answer to a question.

7. Don't over patronise them. That's what charlatans do. One "thank you for this opportunity" is okay. It's a professional interview, you're not soliciting for their favor.

8. They need to remember you. You need to give them a why. It can be an edge you've honed from a previous experience you held, or a problem you solved in the past, or your approach to the proposal you're discussing. Decide which one it is, then finely insert it in one of your response frames. It shouldn't exceed 10-15 seconds.

When you eventually land the position, my favorite drink is caprisun. I don't drink beer.

Good luck.

i don't know who needs to hear this but your ability to create the reality that you want is directly determined by your willingness to experience its opposite.

- saving money will have you feeling broke while it's actually making you rich.
- setting boundaries will have you feeling alone while you're creating new healthy relationships in your life.
- digging up your trauma will have you feeling broken while it's actually healing you.
- working out has you feeling weak while it's really making you strong.
- learning something new makes you feel dumb while it's making you more intelligent.

your ability to attain the thing that you want is directly correlated with how willing you are to experience its opposite. you have to be ok with being uncomfortable to truly achieve success!

One of the biggest mistakes that people make in early dating is building attachment faster than they’re building information.

You’re texting all the time, saying good morning and good night, checking in about each other’s days, asking deep questions, sharing stories, sending memes, building a rhythm.

And none of that is bad, but all of it creates attachment. It creates familiarity. It creates bonding, connection, investment.

And the problem is:

@ODUNMADEIT For real….If you say “my bad” when I am expecting an apology, it’s gonna piss me off even more than the stuff I was angry about initially…

[∞ @sixX2o]

@vrpwr @dimphos_n Yes, very much….thank you.

“They set Poco up”, “it’s the devil”

Lmao jokers, if many of you were in the UK, US or Canada, you’d have been arrested for assault too lmao I mean I see your tweets.

Consent has been explained on this TL 356 times yet y’all still do “what was she wearing” “wetin she go do for hotel” each time a man is outed for sexual assault. You never understand bodily autonomy, you think prostitutes can’t be raped, cos “na ashewo” you think short skirts mean consent, you think hotel visits mean consent, you think raunchy videos posted online mean consent, you think clubbing with a man means consent, you openly talk about grooming 17 year olds, better remain in Nigeria or you will be fuckin arrested too.

I don’t know if Pocolee is guilty or not, I will wait for the facts but if he is just like the average Nigerian man: the one that calls you a ‘simp’ for asking him to be decent in dealing with women, the one that vehemently refuses to unlearn archaic practices that won’t fly anywhere else, Im willing to hazard a guess & my guess is; “guilty” I’m sorry.
