One of the best things my brother said to me this year was that people usually have a real reason for everything they do. That thought genuinely changed how I see people, and myself.
The human brain is powerful, but it was built for survival, not success. It chooses comfort over stress by default. Even though we all have the ability to think long term, plan, and push through discomfort, most of the time we do not use that part of the brain properly.
We see successful people and we know what they did to get there. The problem is not understanding the steps or read their books. The problem is being willing to go through the same discomfort every day without stopping. Our brains are not used to that level of consistency, so they push back.
Take something simple. If you spent three hours a day learning a skill instead of watching films or scrolling, this time next year you would be good enough to make money from it. That is not a theory. It is basic repetition.
We all have access to information now. AI, books, videos, courses. Information is not the issue. The issue is that learning and applying it feels uncomfortable, boring, and slow. So we avoid it and tell ourselves stories instead.
Since that realisation, I stopped waiting until I feel like doing things. When my brain hesitates or tries to delay, I act immediately. I do not argue with it anymore. I just do the work.
So, Naija Farmer that took me away from twitter is about to cross 40k users.

We've had consistent log in of at least 1k players a day across the 40k.
If you missed the farming simulation games, give it a try.
And if you have nothing to lose give me a retweet.
This is the reality. Unless you are a normal Nigerian, it is nearly impossible to see the rot. This man probably arrived at the airport, went straight onto roads with non-working markings unlike where he came from, and drove through streets of people hawking for 1k profit a day while in a Prado. People dry-clean his clothes, youths beg him for money on the road, and a teenager wants to clean his windscreen with dirty water, soap and sponge – all while in 5% of the country. But you know what... Nigeria is not as bad.
I’ve been in Nigeria for six days now, and I can already see how wonderful it is. It gives me such peace of mind, and I feel happy every single moment I’m here. Things are not nearly as bad or as dangerous as they are often portrayed. You can easily manage your expenses and keep costs down. Electricity is still being improved, and road development is actively ongoing. I honestly believe we are still in a better situation than many other countries. Most importantly, the peace of mind you get in Nigeria simply cannot be compared to what you find in the Western world.🇳🇬❤️
You can ask this too, if Satan had already been permanently expelled from heaven, how was he still appearing before God in Job.
So Agony of the poor cannot be used positively against Nigerian leaders like this?😩
What a useless Agony.

Como should be banned from the UCL. If this is how people used to do it for small teams, would they be here?
We are not living in the present. We have all already lived and completed our lives.
We are simply experiencing a life that has already happened.
Maybe that’s why some of us can see things that have happened and things that are yet to happen. Because none of this is actually new. We’ve already existed, we’ve already lived through it all, and we’re all already dead.
We’re just experiencing what has already happened.
Tore certificate and then withdrew from school? 🤔🤔 Don't you have to finish school before getting a certificate?
When Jesus said man shall not live by bread alone, you thought he made it up? He was also reading Deuteronomy 😂. He had his own religion and was worshipping God in it. He did not say people should worship him.
I don't know which is worse: people illegally pasting campaign posters on a median barrier which shouldn't happen in a functional society but were not arrested for that or the fact that someone who tore them down got arrested for it.
Rilwan Olawale tagged the DSS himself while tearing APC's poster. Maybe you didn't see this before releasing this statement.

Lol! You want to have logical conversation with racist and people who don't give a single F about your existence?
🇬🇧 As an immigrant living in the UK, I often see comments telling immigrants (me) to leave the UK and go back home .
I have always wanted to ask British people who share this view:
Is your concern about immigration generally, the number of people coming into the UK, or immigrants from certain countries?
I genuinely want to understand your perspective.
Speaking in tongues doesn’t mean you’re powerful or anything. Sometimes, it just means you’ve run out of things to say. At that point, you’re better off just humming.
Imagine bruno throwing saying that about sir Alex😂

I created a game overnight that I’ll add to this. I’ll test it and hope it goes through.
What if you could leave the Lagos hustle if it’s not making money, go farm to make money, then return to Abuja or Lagos to carry freakies? naijafarmer.joroplay.com.
Still testing, but should be ready for users. 😂
Open for feedbacks to avoid hiccups in a week.
