In the eighteenth century, there was something that spread across Europe and eventually made its way to America called "purple fever or black death of childbirth".

Women would die within 48 hours after giving birth.

It got worse and worse over the course of a century.

This was the time of science, so doctors wanted to study and find the reason for this black death of childbirth.

In the morning, they would study the corpses of women who have died and conduct autopsies.

In the afternoon, they would go deliver babies .

Then, a particular doctor detected that they weren't washing their hands before delivering babies.

He pointed it out and said "you are the problem".

They ignored him and called him crazy for thirty years.

Finally, somebody realized if they simply wash their hands, it will go away.

When they started sterilizing their instrument and washing their hands, the black death of childbirth disappears.

----------------

The lesson here is sometimes you are the problem and learning to take accountability for our actions is key.

You can take all the credit in the world for the things you do right.

As long as you take responsibility for the things you do wrong.

It must be a balanced equation.

There's a difference between those who "need" your time, and those who "deserve" your time.

Those who need your time do NOTHING with the time you offer them.

Those who deserve your time UTILIZE and make use of every second you give them.

Unless you've planned to drain yourself like a heavily sucked orange, do NOT be available for everyone.

Would you rather drink a cold tea or develop a thick skin?

A few days ago, I read an article on a woman experience in domestic violence.

She said "He hit me and sexually assaulted me almost everyday".

I wanted to go out with two female coworkers and told him weeks in advance.

When the time came, he punched me in the face and slammed my head on the wall, only leaving me alone because he had duty that evening.

She further continued ' I tried to talk to his parents but they told me it was normal in young marriages.

I really wanted my marriage to work but it's hard and kept getting harder.

---------------

This boils down to my first sentence at the beginning.

No one deserves to be treated badly in any shape or form.

Not you, not me, not our enemies right?

Sometimes, it's not the bruises that hurts but the wounds of the heart and the scars of the mind.

How much pain do you have to endure till you are pushed to your limit?

You are living in mediocrity and you found yourself stuck where you are going through each day, each month and each year exactly the same.

If you want something badly enough, you must make it a top priority to go after it.

When you do that, the universe will cooperate to help make certain what we want.

Wake up! Wake up! No sleep!

Never underestimate the power you have to take your life in a new direction.

You've probably heard about this story. Have you?

In China, they grow a bamboo tree commonly known as the "Chinese Bamboo Tree".

In the first year, they plant the seed and water the roots.

In the second year, they continue nurturing but there are no results to show for it.

The same happens in the third and fourth year.

In the fifth year, The Chinese Bamboo tree grows 90 feet tall in just six weeks within one week.

Wow!

Can we call this magic or process?

Many people toil all day with no result to show for it. No one can see the sweat and efforts you put into your craft.

The behind scene doesn't seem to seen by people with eyes but do not forget your inner growth will spring forth into a giant strides.

Only if you keep grinding with strategic actions to get better.

The moment you decide to stop, you've wasted the previous years of experiences.

Dear Fan-mily, your fire needs to keep burning until you start looking like an overnight success.

Be like the Chinese Bamboo Tree.

A super interesting article I read some years ago.

The article was centered around how a toothpaste company made a breakthrough with a tiny, but crazy idea that was suggested from a junior staff in the company.

_____

According to the article, the company's monthly meeting commenced on that fateful day, and the CEO asked for ideas that can boost their sales.

The senior staff in the company gave their usual suggestions like - increasing marketing budgets, using more ads channels, hiring external marketing experts, etc.

The CEO heard all that, but reiterated that those were tactics they've tried in the past.

He needed something "fresh".

To the surprise of everyone, a junior staff indicated that he has a suggestion that'd work.

He was given the opportunity to speak.

What was his idea?

He suggested that the mouth of the new toothpastes that would be produced, be slightly widened.

Meaning that — if the toothpaste with the previous mouth size would last for approximately two months for instance, the new one with a slightly widened mouth would last for about a month, due to the slightly widened mouth.

And the result is that they'd make more sales because people would finish up their toothpastes earlier than usual, and buy again.

This would triple their sales.

Everyone applauded the idea.

The idea was tried and their sales skyrocketed in no time.

_____

Over to you.

You may have to take your pen+paper and write down everything that people are running away from, in your business.

It may be that they're running from a certain product color, size, delivery pattern, advert channel, service pattern, or just anything.

Start looking into those areas people are looking away from.

Pick one or two of them that looks promising, and apply.

It's either it works or it doesn't. Either ways you'd gain profit or gain a lesson.

You may even have to go back to a strategy that worked sometime in the past in your industry, tweak it and reapply it to today's reality.

For instance, everyone is jumping on social media ads, you can try going back to Newspaper, radio or TV ads. Tweak it and see what works.

Sometimes, that little insignicant idea is what may lead to the big change we desire.

𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗠𝗬 𝗟𝗜𝗙𝗘 𝗕𝗘𝗖𝗔𝗠𝗘 𝗔 𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗦𝗛 𝗖𝗔𝗡.

In my early journey of life, creating boundaries was very difficult for me.

I'm always okay with everything and everyone. That act of being kind and cooperative even when it clearly violate your feelings.

I'll always say 'Yes' to please others at my own expense.

I'll fear being rejected or abandoned which leaves me accepting less than what I deserve.

I'll avoid conflict with others and give in to every request.

Slowly, I was draining myself by making things better for a lot of people while making things worse for myself.

If you don't create boundaries for what you can do for people and the extent you can go.

People will make you a ❜𝐀 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐡 𝐜𝐚𝐧❜ that collects everything both good, rotten, spoilt and bad but has no power of refusal and can never be safe.

What if instead of expecting yourself to toughen up and develop thicker skin, you create boundaries that honour your softness and sensitivity?

Boundaries simply means creating conditions and experiences you want, can enjoy and feel comfortable in to avoid being manipulated or violated.

Boundaries doesn't have to be negotiated or begged for.

It keeps you safe and helps you focus on what is most important to you.

It is an act of self care with self-love which creates a balance.

Let's cite few examples;

Question: Can you stay an hour for the job on weekend?
Answer: I don't respond to work emails at weekend but can help you find someone who can.

Question: Can you assist with this assignment?
Answer: I'm quite occupied with lots of work and won't be available.

Question: Why are you yet to give me an answer?
Answer: I'm not comfortable discussing that part of my life with you.

You have successfully created boundaries, protected your peace, make yourself happier and more productive to avoid burnout.

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬❓

𝟏. 𝐃𝐨𝐧❜𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐚𝐟𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐚𝐲 ❜𝐍𝐨❜.

Many people feel guilty for turning down an offer or request which can be overwhelming.

You might end up with duties you can't keep up with.

Every 'Yes' and 'No' helps you set boundaries on how you intend to spend your time and energy.

It doesn't have to be rude yet very clear.

The truth is unless you say something, people will assume you're ok.

𝟐. 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬.

Do not set boundaries in your mind.

Openly sharing them with the other party signifies where they should draw the line.

The more precise and direct you can communicate your boundaries, the easier it will be to respect and not to overstep it.

𝟑. 𝐁𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬.

Boundaries protect you from overextending your physical, financial, mental and emotional well being while putting yourself in danger.

Well, avoid shifting your boundaries for somebody else's comfort.

Be keen to uphold them regardless.

Be consistent and steady with your decisions.

It helps keep you in check always.

Boundaries are essential to grow in personal development.

As you eat balanced diet for nourishment.

Balance your life with setting boundaries and living right.

Who is the girl in the picture?

Finally, cheers to another year of making impact, laughing hard, making more money and lots of fun.

On this day, a seed was planted and gradually germinated into a talented, amazing and beautiful woman.

I tend to reflect on my humble beginning and how far GOD Grace has been uplifting me.

Prior to this day, as a normal Nigerian - You get to order cake, go for outing, prepare for your photo shoot or launch a new product and so on.

Having spent so much money in securing my new apartment and so many expenses. I've decided to let what flows to flow.

I've steadily drank from chineke well of abundance and hoping my celebration gives me many happy memories despite not preparing anything special for the day.

I thank myself for being strong during my tough times.

Princess has grown spiritually, mentally, financially and physically.

To be honest, I love myself so much than anyone can ever give but I've got so many people who love me for who I am and represent.

I'm very proud of my journey.

Congratulations on another milestone to greatness.

Happy birthday to a very caring and daring personality.

I love you!💙

HOW RITA GOT A JOB ROLE THROUGH AN EVENT SHE ATTENDED.

Hello

See ehh, if you read this content to the end, you will discover how to really connect with big people beyond taking phone numbers.

Rita was in this conference where the who is who in the marketing space were speaking.

I mean people that have weight in marketing like Tricia Biz, Chioma, and Emeka Nobis, those people that have made it from marketing not audio marketing experts.

Lols, don't mind me….

So, as the custom is, there would be break out sessions for networking.

While the event was going on, Rita was convinced in her heart that she needed to connect with the speaker that talked about branding as a marketing tool.

Observe her strategy,

After the event, people began to crowd the speakers taking selfies, don't get it twisted, taking selfies are great, they help you down memory lane.

But this wasn't Rita's strategy, she didn't join the crowd to take selfies with the speakers, see what she did.

She knew if she went to approach that speaker she liked, she would be seen as the crowd, and the pull of people there won't allow her to connect effectively.

She sighted the friend of the speaker, the friend wasn't popular, so there was no crowd on her at all.

Rita approached her, introduced herself and exchanged pleasantries with her, after they had a good laugh.

She declared her intentions, that she wanted to connect with her choiced speaker, the lady asked her if she was sure.

She responded with a resounding YES. But can't you go and meet her, the friend asked her, she said the pull on her was too much.

She asked her to wait around a little bit more, so that when it was time to go, she would signal her to come around.

When the crowd diminished, this lady carried Rita and connected her with this Speaker.

On meeting the speaker, she didn't dwell her conversation like everyone else, which is the usual, "your session was powerful" "I got value"

She went value oriented, by commenting on her session and not hyping it, and moved straight into commenting on her work on social media.

She didn't stop there, she told her what she thinks can help improve her work online, like a two mins session on brand visibility.

This speaker couldn't contain her amusement, every other person came to take selfies, collect her phone number, but they didn't leave any impression.

Rita left a great impression on her, she didn't end there, she gave her a notepad as a gift and continued her connection after the event.

The real connection happens after the event and not during the event.

She was always seeking ways to add value to the speaker's work and what she was doing. After about two months, a vacancy came up in the speakers office.

Who did you think she employed?

Stop collecting people's phone numbers to fill your contact.

Connect with them in real life.

As you do your connection, be deeply value-centric.

IT WILL END PRAISE.

Thank You 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Do you think we would be better off without social media?

There are two ways you can learn from mistakes.

1. Learn from your own.
2. Learn from the mistake of others.

Obviously, the second method is the cheapiest and easiest.

You can greatly accelerate your path to success by studying those who have gone before you.

The top people in every field began picking up their lessons from the best in their industry.

This powerful technique is known as Modelling in which you make use of another's person success strategies while avoiding their missteps.

This was part of the words I received from an email letter yesterday.

Meanwhile, when you are asked to model a person, you simply churn out what has worked for them and how you can apply it to your self.

Sadly, many has turned modelling to copying a person's tone, voice and lifestyle.

What happens to the uniqueness you bring to the table?

It's okay to admire how he/she speaks, writes and so on.

It's not okay to start following a stagnant pattern to be like the person or fit into their style.

You are not a photocopy.
You should be original.

That's what makes you true.

Don't get caught in meaningless imitation but strategic modelling.

Sending you a cup of positi-vitamin💙.
