Being an influencer is not for you.
You’ll spend 6+ hours online daily for the rest of your life anyway - so use 90 minutes to CREATE, not just consume.
But don’t chase influence - it’s a demonic force that makes your life about likes and retweets. Instead, become a Key Person of Influence (KPI): share your authentic ideas, document your journey, and attract people who think like you. Influencers perform for everyone.
KPIs share for a specific niche.
There are 8 billion people online - your unique voice will find its audience.

All your financial pain comes from one thing: the dark desire to upgrade your lifestyle. You have food, data, a phone, a roof. You're doing fine. But you want MORE - to look wealthy instead of being wealthy.
Here's the test: if someone offered you 115 million naira in 5 years, but you couldn't spend a single naira more than you spend now, would you take it? Of course. But you won't actually do it.
This episode breaks down why the need to show off to others is why you're failing financially and don't even know it.

I almost failed Thermodynamics because I listened to friends explain everything but never solved a single question myself.
There is no understanding without experience.
This episode is about why you're over-wise (you know too much but practice too little), why there's no "best way" to make money (there are billionaires in every industry), and why looking at 6 months into a 2-year journey to start something new means you never master anything.
Faith comes by bombarding yourself with information about YOUR field until you believe it's the best thing in the world.

If you're not getting the results you want, you're not as smart as you think.
This episode breaks down why Ronaldo made hard work his talent when Messi had more natural potential, why Kobe Bryant said "no one expects more from me than I expect from myself," and why quitting at 6 months when it compounds at 2 years means you lose 1.5 years of compounding.

My dad taught me 12 years ago with a broomstick: divided we fall, united we stand.
This episode is about why struggling alone is harder, why 90% of people you meet won't be trustworthy (but the 10% are worth the pain), and how one person chases 1,000 but two people put 10,000 to flight.
The math doesn't make sense but it's true - teamwork multiplies exponentially.

Would you take one marshmallow now or two later?

Would you take $1 million today or let $1 compound untouched for 5 years?
Most people grab the million and stay broke.

If you haven't dreamt about your goal, it's not worthy enough.
