In many situations, I have been able to 𝐛𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐲 𝐜𝐢𝐫𝐜𝐮𝐦𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬 how I please - at least what I can control.

Mostly or a good number of people I've heard talk about their problems and minor issues, they speak with an aura of defeat.

I'd like to sound like an expert and say we're wired to focus on the bad side of things, things we can't control and ignore the things we can actually control, the sunny side of things.

In any given situation, we have the choice to minimize or even completely erase how these bad situations feel and affect us and still take massive forward steps towards what we want, whatever that may be.

Mindset; how you think, how you perceive events and how you respond to them are key factors to how we progress in life.

Here's the shocker: There's no 'correct' way to think, or respond to events. It's different for everyone.

Sometimes, what would get you to take action towards your set plans would be to absorb an insult, channel that anger and prove the person who insulted you wrong.

OR

You can choose to clear your head, so you don't get distracted and focus on what's important.

For me, when things begin to look bad, I focus on my attitude and beliefs at that point in time, my thoughts go along the lines of.

"Who ever said that this was hard?"

"This is totally easy.",

"It's probably for the best",

"In the end, it all works out fine for me"...

One important thing you must not do is to deny your current reality and what led down there.

A very wrong thing to do is to deceive yourself, because you won't even know what to measure and change.

The main idea is to find what fuels you, what drives you to do big s**t.

Find it and keep in your arsenal for whenever life begins to throw rocks at you

or you can just use it as an everyday fuel especially when you don't feel motivated.

Remember, You don't have to be Superman to do Superman deeds.

What drives you?

This is how to beat the best and still watch movies like a Boss.

One thing I think I hate about procrastination has to be the fact that it's so hard to get anything done cos I'd rather lie down here for another 3 minutes and let imagination finish me or finish watching this African Movies Series.

Do you feel the same?

Here's the simple trick I use to get more done in a week than most people in half a month:

I heard it from Scott Young first, it's called the Top Heavy Approach.

What this simply means is that whatever your timeframe is to achieve a goal or carry out tasks, put the ones that require the most time, the most important, the difficult ones as the tasks you have to complete at the beginning of the day, week, or month.

This way, in the evenings (for daily timeframes), Thursdays-Sundays (for those using weekly timeframes), you can relax knowing you've done the bulk of the work and can finish up anytime and without resistance cos of how small the remaining are.

I'm still not promoting Procrastination though,
Unless you've done the Bulk of the work😂.

Take care, don't get lazy.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗪𝗮𝘆, 𝗜 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗠𝘆 𝗙𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

Life expectancy is not as high in Nigeria as in other countries.

Yes, we have some our grand parents alive at 80+, but you do have 70 active years to be make something out of your life before time catches up with you.

Today I'll be talking on how to make money from nothing, because the way I see it, Twenties and Thirties should be used to try to build PASSIVE cashflow that would make life convinient for you and remove the obligation to work off your shoulders.

For the average Nigerian earning minimum wage, 30K/m, opportunities abound. Yes, it's true.

Provided you leverage the internet, there are more opportunities to get rich off of than you know. You can pick up different skills like trading, design, programming, marketing etc and the best art is you could even build careers in these paths and you can even be more specific as these instances I mentioned have further smaller better paying niches.

If you are proficient in any of these, you should be able to bag at least 200K/m, from here I prefer you invest back into learning or purchase the service of someone who is a proven aspect in the field you might want to invest in; Lease, Real estate, Car Hire, Tricycle Hire, Barber Shop etc to guide you on the best way to go about it.

Repeat.

I believe the way to build wealth follows this Formula:

Generate income -> Invest in Assets{Your education is an asset too} -> Repeat

Have a nice day.

3 Things To Start Doing Today To 𝗔𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝟵𝟴% 𝗢𝗳 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗣𝗼𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

Everyone has 24 hours, some of us get nothing important done, yet some achieve, others over-achieve...

These were my thoughts this morning, what makes us so different with these guys who tend to over achieve, could it be talent?,

could it be hardwork?, could it be just an animalistic drive to push through with goals that they've set that makes them so god-like.

I've done an extensive research,

not just any general research, but what makes some Nigerians more successful than their fellow Nigerian counterparts in career, in finances, in productivity and more importantly, in wealth, even as we're affected by the same economy.

Read to the end to find out, You might just be shocked to see what you do wrong:

- Firstly, Knowledge of the right things tend to play a large role.

I'd prefer it if you didn't read so much self-help books and picked just a good book on where you want to work in your life. Business, Relationships, Money,

Whatever,...I've come to see that the best way is to pick a great book or course or whatever instructional material and focus on DOING.

- Secondly, Spend time on the right things.

What are the right things?

Good that you ask.

The things that doing right now, gets you closer to your goal quicker. For example as an employee looking to start their business, learning the skills required to make that business work would be the best use of your leisure.

For those in business, that might be scheming your next marketing campaign so you get more customers and in turn, more money etc. Map out what's important to you and double down on it.

- Thirdly, Friction, not Flow.

Did you hear that scientists made diamonds from peanut butter?

No? Then of course, you must know that Gold goes through an intense process of heating heating to purify them and test them.

I used to be an advocate of Flow, not Friction, cos I discovered that I don't want to stress myself but I still wanted to get things done anyway.

I did get things done, but slowly.

Not as fast as I would have liked. So what did I do? I went at full throttle, I automatically adopted a respectable persona, I didn't have time for every one and every thing, I was picky on how I spent my time cos there was always something to do.

It all came together, I understood why the rich always talked about how time is spent and how they got more done in less time in comparison to an average person with same intentions.

BONUS: It' s really not how 𝗛𝗔𝗥𝗗 you work, but 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗘 you spend doing that activity you want to become the best at. Be it Studying, Programming. Whatever.

Put in the time, Pay your dues.

The one who can continue to play the game the longest wins.

Begin with these, when you begin to see growth, we'll talk some more.
