Putting down something on the whiteboard, the kids start to mumur.

I go shhhhh, no noise please. Focus and write! Any pim from you, all of you will stand and raise your hands😩

2 seconds later

I hear pim! Not just pim. I hear noiiiseeee 😭

Everybody stand up! Hands up and close your eyes🙄

I face the whiteboard, continuing from where I had stopped.

After sometime, I turn sharply and ask 'who was dancing?

Everywhere goes quiet

Who was dancing na? Someone was dancing at the back, oh! You think I didn't see you? I have eyes all over my body.

I study their faces. Lol, see how they are staring at me 😳

Teacher, how did you know?!

I said I have eyes all over my body, if you misbehave behind my back I'll catch you🙄

They go, wooow! Teacher, you're too much o

They all keep quiet because, no one wants to be caught.

So I go back to writing on the whiteboard, smiling to my self and looking at their reflections through the whiteboard waiting for the next culprit.

Every Body Gets To That Stage In Life, Where They Are Mostly Worried About The Path They Are Taking

~1.0 mins read

Every body gets to that stage in life, where they are mostly worried about the path they are taking. They worry so much because they are scared that they're not getting it right. At some point in our lifes, we've been confused. So confused and some of us, the not so strong ones let it all out. We cry, we cu*rse, we try to unleash our frustration on others. We feel unnecessary pressure and we also have this urge to do better.

What do you do when you find yourself in such state?

Do you just sit around, feeling bad for yourself?

Do you engage in some activities, you'd normally wouldn't be proud of?

Do you transfer the aggression on others and cut ties with them?

Do yiu completely ghost people cos you feel, you're a piece of sh*it. You feel so useless so what's the point?

Does that state, spark up new ideas in you?

What you make of that situation is what matters the most.

Funny how I'm typing this and speaking to myself too.

Please make good use of that state, don't let it drain you!

Make something out of it. It'll be hard I know but still try anyways ❤️

I'll be dropping more of these "loud thoughts" here. I want the best for you, dear reader.

Some of us, in our homes...

Rice with meat 1kilo or fish, is specially for Sunday.

When someone is doing birthday or momsi wants to spice up her marriage, salad will join.

But salad is occasionally for Christmas.

Outing is luxury.

Chicken Republic is luxury.

Barbecue is luxury.

We no complain, we no sad because we know/knew it's not forever...

Then we redefined luxury.

Luxury is being alive each day to hustle and try again.

Luxury is mom and dad not begging anyone before they feed us.

Luxury is none of our siblings getting locked up in the police cells for drugs or theft.

Luxury is mom and dad not spending money on hospital bills.

Luxury is hearing mom and dad say "thank God" whenever we tell them "mom, dad, thank you fir the food"

For indeed, thank you for inconveniencing yourselves to feed us.

Thank you for what you can afford.

We breathe today, we breathe tomorrow.

Little by little, we are changing the narratives.

Shout out to everyone out there, who is trying so hard for themselves and for the people they love.

We will experience luxury in all its definitions????????????

This One Is For Money Chasers. Read Till The End.

~2.2 mins read

DO YOU WANT TO MAKE MONEY?

THEN READ TILL THE END.

So, during my final days in the university, I told myself that I do not want to graduate and become a liability to anybody. I wanted to make and have my own money. I began to look and think of ways I could achieve that.

As someone who is too inquisitive and crazy about knowledge, I started asking questions and making research. Boom! I discovered that what I needed was online. Yes! you heard me, online.

There were and still are a lot of opportunities to make money online but I had one challenge and that was, I had little or no knowledge about most of these offers online. It pained me eh! Then I decided to learn about the ones I was interested in.

Before then, I had an offline business which is my perfume business and I have been doing that for a while. Was it paying? Somehow, but I wanted more.

I decided to take some courses online to do better and boom! I got lucky and long story short, I took some of the courses I could.

Dear Young Person, get a digital skill o, e get why!

(Go and read my previous post on WHY YOU SHOULD GET A DIGITAL SKILL, if you have not).

I applied most of the lessons I learnt from the online courses on marketing to my business and boom! I hit my first 100k in the business in less than 2months using only WhatsApp. Yes! there's a course on that. I have never ran ads before. If you need the course for yourself as an entrepreneur or business person, I can show you how.

But, I am writing this post because of one hot and sweet course I came across online and I think as a young person, you should seize the opportunity and acquired a digital skill that can earn your good money.

It's on WEB DESIGNING.

Over 400+ people have enrolled for this and you know website designing is one digital skill that can fetch you more than 200k a month.

So, are you a web designer?

Do you know someone who is?

Are you interested in learning this skill?

Then, this is absolutely meant for you. Parents you can get this course for your teenager or young adult and turn them into a breathing cash machine before they clock 25.

Good thing is, you do not need any prior experience to catch up with the lessons because you will learn from scratch

Guess what? you learn at your convenience and it's a 100% practical website design course with support from experts during and after the training who will coach and mentor you to achieve your business goal.

And yes! There's is a certificate upon completion. What an opportunity!

FOR MORE INFORMATION, COURSE CONTENTS (OR OUTLINE) AND TESTIMONIALS see ???? https://tinyurl.com/xv3ezrd5

I am Uncle Josh. I don't joke with value, just so you know????

GROWTH

GROWTH.

Yesterday I was at Ikeja. I was invited to speak to and inspire a group of young people with my story.

I got up to the stage and opened up.

I shared parts of my journey and story that I've never shared here on facebook. I went deep into my childhood, what I went through, how I got here and the people who helped me along the way.

The young audience was shocked. Even the organizer of the event Emmanuel Obi had shock written all over his face. Most of them knew me but most didn't know the details of what I had to go through to get to where I am now.

My stories got to everyone in attendance & after I spoke they gave me a standing ovation.

We had a brief networking session shortly after. As people met up with and interacted with new folks I linked up with my co-speaker and brother Iyenyorochi Obi and he said something that struck me.

"Chukwuma, I really thank God for our lives. Seeing you speak & share your story up there today reminded me in vivid terms how far we've come in just a year. The growth has been massive"

When he made that statement it hit me too.

Man, we've come a really long way!

From two broke guys experimenting on facebook to two kings ruling their own kingdoms.

I remember the early days of YorochiTv.

I knew he had created something beautiful but no one knew exactly how massive it would get.

Yet we poured in time, sweat, blood & the little money we had into chasing the dream.

Today, thousands of beautiful stories, friendships, businesses & even marriages have emanated and shot off from this same dream.

It wasn't all rosy. I remember our first hangout in Ibadan, how we incured debts after that party. Same thing in enugu, same thing in lagos. At some point I myself became really scared about the losses we were incurring. Yet Iyenyorochi kept pushing. Planning and hosting even bigger events.

Slowly but steadily, our bones have been made.

The brand has become big.

In one year, YorochiTv is now a brand that can host a show that would cost millions of naira and pull it off successfully.

I on the other hand, in one year, have evolved from a welder in the interior parts of Oba to a the CEO of a budding tech company Happivibe Services that already employs dozens of young people & has made tens of thousands happy around the world. I have personally transitioned into a confident, stable, daring and inspiring young man living and thriving in the heart of Lagos.

And the most exciting thing is that we are just warming up.

Both movements will eventually go global. Yesterday it was ikeja, soon we'd be linking up on global stages to inspire the world with our stories.

This is how growth looks like. Little by little. Brick by Brick. And before you even know it a mighty house has has been built.

To you my dear reader, you might not be recognized on bigger platforms right now. It might seem as if you are stuck, like you are not making much progress even though you are really trying.

Please I beg you. Don't stop. Keep moving.

You are growing even though you don't see it. It's only a matter of time. If you keep going someday soon you too will look back and say "Man! I've really come a long way"

May God bless you & give you strength as you continue your journey to greatness.

Ups And Downs In Marriage

~0.8 mins read

This thing called marriage.

No one talks about the unnecessary arguments. No one talks about the irritations. No one talks about the sudden disgust for everything your partner does. No one talks about the nagging, the complaints. No one talks about how the person begins to piss you off.

No one talks about how he or she doesn't look attractive anymore. No one talks about how it feels like you have a stranger in your house.

No body talks about how he or she can't provide the usual anymore, and how we can't cope with it. Nobody talks about the storms that come. The sickness, the brokeness.

So we don't prepare for these things. And when the storm comes, we believe it to be the end.

But there's always a calm after every storm.

There's always imperfections. There's always that strangeness. There's always time for everything that I mentioned. The hurricane is strong enough to carry you, but when you and your partner are well prepared, you'll be stronger and you'll win.
