  Hitting rock bottom several times can be very traumatic, especially when it is both financial and emotional. There have been moments in my life where nothing worked no matter how hard I tried. Everything seemed to move against me. I was left completely confused and hopeless. And when I say everything, I mean  everything . My relationships would suddenly go cold for no clear reason. Breakups would happen out of nowhere. My finances would freeze, like a door had been shut in my face. And there I was, left in the cold, carrying questions with no answers. My first encounter with this phase was brutal. I thought it was because I was naive because I lacked confidence, self-esteem, worth, and purpose. My boyfriend at the time ended our relationship in a way that completely broke me. I almost took my own life. My future felt foggy. Yes, I lacked clarity. But deep down, I knew I wasn’t incapable. I knew what I could become if I was in the right environment. Like a typical Nigerian, I...

  Sometimes I wonder why everything in life is governed by time. It makes me cringe knowing that I have to dig, plant, water and most importantly wait to see the outcome. Why can’t we just imagine things and have them magically bring themselves to life? At some point, most people have had this thought. We want ease. We want shortcuts. I think life  is  easy but not in the literal sense. Your definition of EASY strongly determines your approach to life. Take it or leave it. Life is the most structured phenomenon there is.

But until you get it right, you keep repeating the same mistakes, and it becomes a loop. Many people are too carried away or too distracted to become conscious of this pattern, so they mistake repetition for fate instead of feedback. Elevating your status in life isn’t just about money. Yes, money is essent...

  There are moments and events we can’t explain phenomena beyond the capacity of the human mind. There are patterns that feel planned, yet we don’t understand by whom. This is especially true for people who cannot explain the reason behind the repeated cycles they experience cycles that existed long before they were born. In some families, attaining a certain height in life feels impossible, no matter how hard they try. It often feels as though an unseen force is deliberately holding them back. Intellectually, science claims not to believe in the unseen, yet there is no tangible explanation for how we can speak to someone miles away and communicate seamlessly without interruption. All we know is frequency. Believe it or not, the world is ruled by forces. This is why theories exist explaining how the earth remains round while our feet stay firmly planted on it, suspended in this infinite space called the universe. We call it gravity. An unseen force yet without it, I wonder what hum...
