Do the undoable 馃挭



I'm grateful for the fact that I've moved from the position of "I can't" to "I can try"


I've seen so many people belittle themselves when they are asked to do some things, you'll hear "Me I know myself o, I can't do this thing at all." By the power bestowed on me now馃ぃ I'm telling you to please let go of that mindset. It ties you down so badly.


I want to see a generation that dares to do, a generation that challenges the undoable. The worst form of failure you can never have is not trying at all.


Fine, some people know their strengths and weakness as to what they are good at or bad at. But just because you're good at something doesn't mean you can upgrade yourself in what you think you are bad at. Guess what? You can turn out the best.


I've read so many motivational books that says if you know what you're good at, just focus on that and leave the rest. Well, I'm not disputing that but my dear, the world has gone beyond staying within a confinement. You see ehn, you need to explore other angles.


There's an interview I read some times past about a medical student in OAU that's also a cobbler. She had learnt that during one of their long term strike. Imagine how it is like to switch between science and art. Why do you think she hadn't gone to learn patent medicine or probably stayed at a laboratory throughout?


She must had first thought to herself that "am I okay?" or "am I sure I would be able to do it" or even spoken to a friend who might have dissuaded her like "alaye, shey you know what you're doing bayi" but she still tried to learn. If she had failed at it or probably realised it's something she can't do, we wouldn't have been hearing about her now. She chose to challenge herself.


Look here, I'm not saying you should be a jack of all trades. Noooo. But don't be so comfortable in what you think you can do. There are abilities in you that may never be explored till you die so why not exercise some now.


I had never thought I would be in tech as a lifestyle blogger/ content creator. I just wanted to try it out and quit if it's not working but I realised I'm so comfortable telling people about myself and several other things.


Unless you try out something, you may never know how good you are at that. 


Some of us see fliers of competitions online and immediately tell ourselves that "this definitely isn't for me" Why not just give it a trial first? At least, if you were not selected, you would have known you tried to still participate and look out for more opportunities. Who knows if you would blow people's mind in the next one and be the winner?


True true, I would say you're the enemy of you if you don't try new things out. Don't be so complacent within yourself as to your strengths, some may be hidden. Unless you play ball, you may never know if you're an excellent player. You can't just be sitting and be telling people "I'm a bad player o" They will ask you how do you know?


Most successful people nowadays never knew they could do what they are doing now. All they did was change their mindset from "I can't" to "Lemme even try it out first" and see them now in billions. Yeah, it's that simple!


The world needs people who can be flexible to learn, relearn and unlearn. At the long run, when they ask you "can you do this?" Be honest to say "I can try it out now and in few days time, I should be able to do well in it"


That's just the spirit! Just dare to challenge YOU.

Pseudointellectual 馃

It's good to have you here again馃槏 You are loved. Long time no vocabulary. I know scholars here may not really see those words as new nonetheless I'll still share cos what? I get coconut head. Lol So, many of us have actually been here at some points in our life especially when we're trying to really get along in a conversation and present ourselves as supposedly "intelligent."  Hmmm, I could still remember one of the embarrassing moments I had some years back while they were talking about network marketing like GNLD, oriflame, longrich, etc I was like practically linking it to telecommunication networks and everyone was like "no now, seems you're not getting what we are saying..." chai....my feet kinda dragged o Although, you may have tried to do that and not be caught that you're really ignorant of the subject matter. Such person that pretends to be so much knowledgeable when in actual sense he or she isn't is called a PSEUDOINTELLECTUAL.  ...

Parenting 馃應

It's been some few weeks that I dropped by and alot has happened outside here. From abusive marriage to Chrisland girl trend and now bestiality (blog for another day) The latter seems to be the most disheartening of all the stories. Like WTF! Maybe we would just have to pick one after the other but lemme first ask how do you do? And yeah, April is almost gone too in 2022, how have you been holding up ? especially if you're reading this from Nigeria (Top to botum) Lol  Nawa o! So many things have spoilt in this generation already and we don't even know how perverse the generation coming after this would look like. Parenting seems to beh the cheapest business to run now as there's little to no supervision required. I think I updated on my WhatsApp status sometimes ago how a mother approached me that her daughter got 126 in UTME and she would like me to use everything in my capacity to see that she's admitted into my school even after telling her the cut-off is 150. I ...

King of Thieves Agesink贸l茅 馃幀

Let me start with the slogan "Agesink贸l茅 kan omo re pupo - kuo beun na" So sorry if you don't understand yoruba or haven't seen the movie yet. I'll help by saying Agesink贸l茅 is literally translated as "He who rides horse to rob houses." Lol King of Thieves is an epic story of betrayal that revolves round a prince who was deprived of the throne by the king makers. He was set up as a thief by those he has solely trusted and faced the brutal punishment of death. In a quest for vengeance, he reincarnated and troubled the town violently by carting away goods even with no regards for human life. The movie is indeed a complete package from the casts to the props, the costume, the language, the directing, the clean production and post production.  You know, I just can't be wait to be told after seeing the paparazzi from the premiere and the thriller, mehn.... I became so much inquisitive as to what exactly the content was and can say I truly got the value fo...
