- Whether or not you need to, pee before getting in a car. Even if it’s only a short drive, Lagos traffic will humble you.
- Happiness comes and goes, so aim for contentment. This can sometimes be achieved with a cold bowl of yogurt and granola. Or a cookie.
- Choose small consistent efforts over sweeping life-changing declarations.
- Be a verb not a noun. Nouns imprison. You are not a marketing person; you are a person who does marketing.
- When people want to do nice things for you, let them
- When your gut is screaming red flag(s) – abort. Every time.
- It is the ultimate mark of intelligence to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it
- If a problem has a solution it is not a problem
- If a problem does not have a solution it is also not a problem, it is a fact
- Your family loves you. No matter how many times they ignore your saying “it’s in the fridge does not mean you can help yourself!”
- Tell the people you love how important they are to you
- When you encounter narcissistic people, do not take on their trauma as your own. It is not your responsibility to fix people.
- Don’t be afraid to let go of relationships that no longer serve you. No matter how long those relationships have lasted.
- The human capacity to forgive is unmatched. For all your tough talk, you’ll be constantly surprised at how much space is in your heart for other people
- You will meet people that are answers to prayers you didn’t even know you had
- Some things in life are laughable without being funny
- Laugh. At your own failures, from nervousness, because others are laughing, at the futility of it all and in the face of the statement “this is not a laughing matter!”
- Work hard, and make a lot of noise about it
- Save as much money as you can even when you don’t think you can. Habits stick and a culture of savings will set you up for the kind of life you desire
- Invest in as many experiences as you can afford; Read as many books as you can afford; Travel as many times as you can afford.
- Sad songs are best enjoyed when you’re deliriously happy
- Write. Even when you have no idea what you’re writing about. You will end up with a collection of sentences with nothing but a vague linear trajectory, but it will be worth the shot
- If you work at something long enough, you’ll figure it out. Remembering this will help you do more and get more out of life.
- Leave little notes for future you
- Love like there’s no tomorrow, protest like there is
- Whatever you do, never lose your connection to the divine.
