Knowledge is power

 Welcome to my December blog



Day 13,


My day has been a mixture of stress, hunger, thrill, and fulfillment. Going and coming back from Lagos is not an easy task, especially when you’ve got tons of things to do.


On my way back ( a few minutes ago), one of my neighbors across the street stopped me and asked me to please help him look at his phone. According to him, he’s planning on taking it to an engineer. He’s complaint was the phone was not displaying the network.


I collected and checked, and behold, and it was in flight mode. I swiped the screen down, swiped left, then disabled the flight mode and gave it back — easy peasy.


He was happy and content and thanked me for saving the day. 



Quick question: What would have happened if he had taken the phone to an engineer like he intended to?


You know, right? 


Listen, this is my destination: Knowledge is power.

A lot of time, our challenges are not as enormous as we envisioned; some we could solve in two to three swipes. But our lack of knowledge is why we pay the extra money and go through unnecessary headaches. 


Always seek knowledge; what you know today is not enough for tomorrow. What you know now is not sufficient for the future.


Discipline yourself to learn and grow daily!

Question yourself

  Welcome to my December blog Day 23, The quality of your life is directly proportional to the quality of the questions you ask yourself. Be your number one critique. Often, before making a decision, I sit down to ask myself some daunting questions. •What are the pros and cons? •Do I need or want this? •Can this further or mar my ambitions? If, after making a step, things didn't go according to plan. I still sit and ask myself questions. • What was my fault? •How could I have avoided this? •What’s my take-home lesson? •How do I improve myself next time? •What could I have done better? I know the journey of life is often a complex one, but asking and answering my questions gives me clarity. At the end of every day, I ask myself these questions: •What have I achieved today? •What could I have done better today? •Any regrets for today? •Learn new things? •Proud of myself today? Answers to these questions prepare me for tomorrow. Here’s what I’m trying to say, learn to ask yourself que...

Learn to say sorry

  Welcome to my December blog Day 11, Learn to say sorry. There are many things I wished I had known earlier; one of them is the word “sorry.” Often, when I'm at odds with someone, the least I want to do is say sorry. I always seek a way to justify my actions; I frequently get away with them. It boosts my ego and sometimes prevents me from seeing the fault in me.  Saying sorry does not necessarily mean they're right or you’re wrong. It's sometimes the only needed tool for peace to reign. It's a better way of moving forward. So many relationships have been destroyed because we fail to say sorry or constantly try to be correct.  About a year ago, I had a very close friend who ignored me for days; I was baffled as to why — I thought it was right to reciprocate her gestures since I didn’t know what her reasons were, and she didn’t even care to tell me.  One evening, I called and started the conversation: I’m sorry; I noticed you’ve been ignoring me for days; what hav...
