Silence is NOT golden when; Your performance is being discussed. Someone is taking credit for your work. Someone is making inappropriate or hostile remarks about you/others. Unethical acts are being perpetrated. Remove yourself from mute, be tactful, thoughtful & Speak out.

It’s so commercial and vain. Most normal men prefer small intimate weddings, and not being centre of attention - which is often the opposite (the thought is not exciting). Men presumably think more about the marriage (commitment) than the wedding (event).

There's no expiry date to your dreams. Don't be under pressure to match up with anyone. Don't live a life subject to other people's expectations of you. Keep working & walking in the direction of your dreams. Life will yield to you, cuz you're inevitable! Stop existing, live!

Someone asked me for a loan earlier today, I said I don't have to offer. She said "and you'll be wearing suit". LMAO! It took me a while to learn how to say NO, and stand by it (apart from recruiting). I have grown, and I'm still going to say more NOs.

One thing I've learnt isn't to have friends in quantity, but in quality. Friends who you can count on to be there for you - in acts, emotionally, intellectually, spiritually. Friends that love, understand & forgive. Grateful for friends I can call brothers and sisters.

I'll always believe the Nigerian Government is complicit in the BH insurgence. If CNN could trace the bullets to Serbia, then with the resources available - FG should be able to trace arms & bullets recovered from BH and cut their supply progressively. It's not rocket science.

There's a very high chance a person's behaviour and attitude will ruin their career than their incompetence will. More people have lost their jobs and opportunities because of a poor attitude or bad behaviour than lack of the ability to do it. Attitude is everything. Selah.

Got a rejection email from a program I applied to a while back; a friend told me it was their loss. Lol In retrospect, it might not have been their loss. They most likely got people that are also as amazing & doing incredible work in their domains. More work to do!

Whenever anyone refers you for an opportunity - be it a job or business. The best you can do for them is to give it your best and make the best use of the opportunity. Note that you're not only representing yourself - but also the person that referred you.
