I was on the protest ground yesterday
When it struck me…
The best thing you can do for
yourself is personal
development.
Because
It’ll help you transform your life by enlightening your mind.
Knowledge is light, I know.
But…
Applied knowledge is power.
The powers that be don’t want the masses to be knowledgeable because they know it’s easier to rule over ignorant people.
Na ignorance go make you worship who suppose dey serve you and obey your command.
This is why they are scared of the knowledgeable people who
are trying to enlighten
the masses of their
power over the
leaders.
And sometimes…
The ones that are bold enough to do this at the risk of “government” displeasure are either:
❌️ bought over
❌️ frustrated
❌️ silenced.
But…
I think if all of us takes personal development seriously,
We’d all be aware of our “individual” and “collective” powers that’ll make the government sit up and serve
us like they ought to.
But, because we don’t prioritize it.
That’s why the government feel it can do and undo without giving a damn about
how the people feel.
… and that’s because they know not many people are aware of their fundamental and constitutional rights.
It’s the reason they weaponize poverty, so they can use money to buy votes (power) during election.
It’s heartbreaking.
But, should we just sit and continue feeling like victims – without trying to change?
No nah.
We have a long way to go.
But it starts with…
Embracing personal development:
➡ Mentally
➡ physically
➡ financially
➡ Emotionally
No go loose guard yourself o.
You can become a force if you have:
📌 a voice
📌 a platform.
Thanks to the internet for making the above easy for our generation.
These days some individuals are so powerful and influential that they have a say in local and international matters.
If dem sneeze, government go dey shake.
Oya, imagine say you sef get dat
kine level of influence fess.
How e go be?
How e go be say you fit use your influence sit down with the government and make better bargains for your people?
Think about am.
Well…
You fit get dat level of influence too sha, you just need to dey focus and dey intentional about am.
I mean, it won’t just fall on your lap.
You have to work for it.
What is your WHY?
What is your biggest motivation?
HOW do you intend to achieve it?
WHEN do you intend to start?
WHO do you want to become in the process?
Those are some questions you need to answer and be clear about as you
start the process of being a voice.
E no go easy sha, but…
E dey very possible. Walahi!
Keep developing yourself.
Keep sharing your value.
Keep shining your light consistently.
… and someday, it’ll all pay off bigger than you had imagined.
Let’s keep developing ourselves individually, so we can come together to become a powerful force.
I’m rooting for you.
Stay Sharp!

P.S. Stay safe out there!
