In an Akwa Ibom where 80% of mini bus drivers are graduates in professional fields, waking up early to hit the road for daily bread. The average worker trying to get to work by 8am by either trekking, or jumping on a keke all for 50 to 70k at best. Young secondary school….

Story time. This lads & lasses is the story of how the YOOUESAY, threw a fit about a Private military contractor called Executive outcomes, totally outclassing US funded terrorist groups like UNITA in Angola. Notice how black water are besties with the DOD? Anyways.

😂 Let’s simplify these once and for all 👇🏾

1. Noun phrase - a group of words acting as a noun.
*The big dog* barked. (“The big dog” = noun phrase)

2. Adjectival phrase - describes a noun.
The house *with red doors* is mine.

3. Adverbial phrase - tells how, when, or where something happens.
She sings *with passion*.

4. Noun clause - a clause acting as a noun.
*What you said* made sense.

5. Adjectival clause - describes a noun but has a subject + verb.
The girl *who smiled* is my friend.

Once you get the logic, it becomes much easier 😅

my dad was a fucking rocket engineer who taught me something that made me RICH

wasn't some soft ass "believe in yourself" bs

it was QUICK MATH (keep reading it's saucy)

this man ran calculations for missile trajectories in the military. could tell you impact coordinates in his head while other guys needed computers. but he'd say "close enough is better than perfect too late"

"347 divided by 45? about 7. move the fuck on."

he'd make me calculate brutal equations instantly. not perfectly. INSTANTLY. because in real situations perfect math gets you killed while you're calculating

meanwhile you common folk are sitting with your calculator app making sure you got the EXACT answer while opportunities are flying past at 1000mph

this is why you're easy to kill in business...

you're trying to be PRECISE when you need to be FAST

business decision? you want 22 spreadsheets and three consultants' opinions. your competitor already launched, failed, pivoted, and is banking while you're on slide 73 of your market analysis like some soft as baby shit analyst

pricing your service? you're researching statistics for weeks. just pick a fucking number that scares you and TEST IT. wrong? change it tomorrow. you lost one day not six months.

"but what if i'm wrong?"

YOU WILL BE WRONG YOU FUCKING MORON

difference is i'm wrong in 5 seconds and correct in 10. you're still thinking about maybe being wrong next year while i'm already counting money

my first agency? picked price out of thin air. $5k/month felt insane. someone paid instantly. raised to $10k next day. then $20k. found the ceiling in 3 weeks.

you would've surveyed 100 people and ended up at $2k because that's what the statistics said was "reasonable"

quick math beats perfect math EVERY FUCKING TIME

hiring? meet them, trust your gut, done. "but what about background checks..." shut up. you know in 10 minutes if someone's solid or soft as baby shit. everything else is corporate theater.

launching products? ship at 70% and fix it live. "but what if..." what if you die waiting for perfect? at least i'm getting paid while fixing bugs instead of perfecting something nobody wants.

here's what overthinking really is: FEAR dressed up as intelligence

you're not being thorough. you're being a PUSSY, you want spreadsheets to blame when shit fails instead of owning your decisions like someone who isn't easy to kill

fuck your process.

347 divided by 45? about 7

should i hire this broad? she seems hungry? hired.

should i fire this client? they annoy me? gone.

should i raise prices? feeling poor? doubled.

CLOSE ENOUGH IS GOOD ENOUGH

perfect is for common folk who die with perfect plans. done is for killers who die with results.

i watch people spend 6 months on business plans that are worthless the second reality hits. my business plan was "make money." took 2 seconds. still works.

you know what matters? VELOCITY not accuracy.

100 decisions at 70% accuracy beats 10 decisions at 95% accuracy. because those 100 decisions taught you what actually works while your statistics are still theoretical

my competitors still calculating unit economics while i've tested 20 offers and found the one that prints. they have better spreadsheets. i have better everything else.

quick math principle applies to everything:

relationships? you know in 10 seconds if a broad is worth your time. stop needing 6 months of data to "be sure"

investments? thesis makes sense and founder isn't soft? send it. your due diligence is just procrastination with a fancy name

opportunities? someone offers you something that could work? say yes figure it out later. "but the statistics say..." statistics are for people easy to kill

here's the truth: your best educated guess RIGHT NOW beats your perfect answer NEVER

because while you're calculating, killers are DOING. while you're analyzing statistics, they're creating them. while you're planning, they're already celebrating.

347 divided by 45?

about 7.

good enough.

NEXT.

that's the yegor method. quick math. violent execution. adjust on the fly.

everything else is mental masturbation that common folk use to feel smart while staying broke

my dad could calculate missile impacts in his head but knew "close enough" beats "perfect too late"

a "close enough" nuke skill decimates a city. a nuke that never launches does ZERO

now make that fucking decision you've been sitting on. your gut already knows. stop pretending you need more data.

study the yegor method.

Before September ends, please take time to appreciate yourself for the small wins and the battles that you conquered.

Keep going Champs,

You asked me a simple question.

Instead of giving you a simple answer, I started my rambling with the story of the Igbo Landing in 1803 - then continued my rambling for another 7 mins.

I apologize.

Hashing out these realities this way is the only thing keeping me sane.

The matrix is an unforgiving clusterstack of mazes.

From the Nigerian viewpoint, it is woven by the trifecta compact of Religion, Politics & Culture.

None of these beams from the trifecta can function by itself. Religion needs politics, politics needs culture.

All of these beampoints are important for the Nigerian people to remain a certain way, for Nigeria to work - for some people.

Let me ask you this question:

Why do you think certain Christians get abroad and stop going to church altogether?

It is because they discovered that most of the requests the Nigerian church made us pray for, are basic amenities we lacked because of terrible governance.

The church has a market to sell, which is the merchandise of hope but for that merchandise to be relevant, the political beampoint has to do its part - keep policies in place that make sure the people keep seeking hope.

If policies work, everything runs, the ordinary Nigerian can feed, provide and slowly scale upwards the Maslow's hierarchy of needs - the hopeless wouldn't need the church.

If wicked policies run long enough, sometimes the hopeless might seek to speak up - that's where tradition and culture comes in. They create a taper of morality that forbids rebellion. Sometimes they work hand in hand with religion but the goal is simple - make sure people don't and can't speak. Trap them under the guilt of rebellion. Repeatedly echo that leaders are "appointed by God".

This my friend, is the machinery that has ensured the wheels of the weaponization of poverty run smoothly.

This is not a post condemning politics, religion or culture - it is an eye opener indicating how they're instructive in a social experiment that keeps people chained.

Fire is good - good to cook, good to warm but fire once razed down the entire city of London. This is my point.

Religion is one of the paradoxical social tools that has entrenched into the fibres of our humanity.

As much as it is designed to enforce good, it's been responsible for a lot of bad.

As much as it liberates, it imprisons.

It unites communities, while demonizing others.

The destructive part about the matrix is that, it is not forceful. Despite its design, it makes you feel like you're willing participants. As long as you're within, you'll think you're wearing bangles - but people outside the matrix can see visible chains.

So yes brother, I am free. Ideologically, mentally, politically free - but with freedom comes knowledge and most times, knowledge can be a burden because ignorance is bliss.

The world has gotten harder, and it’s only getting harder.

Your parents married at 27 or less, you’re struggling to afford marriage at 30.
They raised a family of 4 on one monthly salary, you’re juggling three side jobs and it’s still not enough.

So give yourself a break. Forgive yourself.
You don’t have to pretend to be okay. Most of us aren’t and that’s alright.

Some days will be messy. Some days, “I’m fine” is the only reply you’ll have. Let that be enough.

[Abraham Udo @westgrinn]

@theeayomikun @UnkleAyo I don't think so because no reporter would want to be answered that way. I trust Boniface😉

[Abraham Udo @westgrinn]

@theeayomikun @UnkleAyo The first question actually set a precedent for why he responded that way.
