May the favour of God speaks for you this week, dear friend. Have a great day and a wonderful week ahead.

Same old wine in a new wineskin? Abeg, I nor dey drink. It’s either new wine in a new wineskin or nothing at all.

You can give your all - time, strength, energy, even your sleep - and still be called “not enough” by the wrong person.⁣


I used to have a friend who learnt this life lesson the hard way. ⁣


She was always the one her siblings would run to whenever there was trouble. It could be school fees, rent, or hospital bills. She showed up every time. ⁣


Sometimes, she would give out the last cash in her account and go hungry herself. And yet, one day, when she couldn’t respond immediately to a request, one of them called her selfish.⁣


That day, the realization of the true nature of human beings damned on her.⁣


My friend, no matter how pure your intentions are, you will never be enough for someone who has decided not to appreciate you. ⁣


There are people who have made entitlement their mindset. They’ll take, take and take, and still accuse you of not doing enough.⁣


That’s why you must learn to draw boundaries.⁣


Helping people is good. Giving is noble. But when it becomes draining, when it makes you start doubting your own worth, then it’s time to pause and re-evaluate your act of kindness.⁣


Your value does not lie in how much of yourself you pour into people who have no respect for the effort it takes.⁣


So, preserve your energy, dear friend. Pour into people who honour your sacrifice, not those who guilt-trip you into slavery. ⁣


It’s not pride; it’s wisdom.⁣


The truth is that when you burn out, they’ll simply move on to the next person. And you’ll be left tired, bitter, and empty.⁣


So stop bleeding yourself for those who only show up when they need something. ⁣


Love yourself enough to know when to step back.⁣


You deserve peace. ⁣
You deserve rest. ⁣
You deserve to be surrounded by people who see you, not just your help.⁣

I hope it's not too late to wish you a Happy New Month, dear friend.

"Abeg, make una no vex say I never post today."

For now, I just eat, take my medication, and rest. "Na who dey alive dey post content."

Hopefully by next week, I should be back fully in creating and sharing content.

As you begin this new month, these are my prayers for you, my dear friend...

Welcome to July!

Eventually, I broke down.⁣


This energetic, workaholic, goal-getter of a lady crumbled like a pack of cards.⁣


Next thing I knew, I was in the hospital, where I was admitted for almost a week.⁣


During that time, nothing else mattered.⁣


Not my online brand.⁣
Not my business.⁣
Not even my school.⁣


I never imagined a day would come when I wouldn’t touch my laptop.⁣


"Omo, na person wey dey alive dey press lapy."😂⁣


I’ve heard that saying, “health is wealth,” over and over again. But now, it carries a deeper meaning for me.⁣


Let me take a moment to say thank you to everyone who reached out.⁣


A special thank you to my amazing kid sister and brother, who are my constant support system.⁣


To my protégé turned sister, Uju Ruth Stevens, thank you for not just checking in on me, but also going to my school to make sure everything was running smoothly. God bless you richly, dearie.⁣


And to the ever-gracious Osimosu Oluwaseun, thank you, sis. You are truly phenomenal.⁣


Ladies and gentlemen, the visionary teacher is back on her feet! Who missed me?⁣

As a child, I absolutely loved playing in the rain.⁣


I kept at it until I was probably around 13 years old.⁣


There was serious water scarcity in Kano back then, so anytime it rained, we didn’t waste the opportunity. ⁣


That was our golden moment to fill drums, buckets, and every container we could find to store water.⁣


Me and the other kids would be outside from the very first drop until the rain stopped completely.⁣


Of course, we always ended up catching a cold.⁣


I still remember how my mum would rub metholatum balm all over our bodies, dress us up in warm, clean clothes, and make hot tea for us to drink. That tea used to feel like magic in our throat.⁣


Chai!Childhood was sweet abeg.⁣


But now, as an adult, especially as a grown lady, I can’t stand rain at all. I don’t even want a single drop on my head. The moment rain touches me, I start feeling sick.⁣


Sometimes I sit and wonder, what really changed?⁣


But one thing I’m forever grateful for is that my parents allowed us to enjoy those little moments.⁣


Dear parents, please allow your children to be children. ⁣


Let them enjoy the innocence and joy that comes with their age. Life will grow them up soon enough.⁣


Don't be in a hurry to make them act like adults because when adulthood comes, there's no going back.⁣

Yesterday, I put a call through to my doctor who lives in another state.⁣


I asked him to send me his account number so I could pay for his consultation.⁣


Since I plan to see him next week, I wanted to first discuss my symptoms over the phone, the medications I’ve been given so far that haven’t worked, and what next steps I should take. ⁣


I wanted him to tell me what further tests to run before I show up.⁣


You see, I don’t want to go all the way there empty-handed. His clinic is quite far from Lagos. ⁣


If I go without test results, I’ll likely be asked to go back and do some, which means another long trip. It’s just wiser to start the process over the phone.⁣


He told me to call him first. But I insisted on paying the consultation before making the call.⁣


He later sent his account details along with the consultation fee. I didn’t waste time. I transferred the money immediately.⁣


Now you might be wondering, “Ronke, why did you do that?”⁣


Let me tell you, dear friend. If you charge people for your products and services, then it’s only right to also pay others for their services.⁣


I’m a teacher and a coach. ⁣


I charge for every product and service I offer. So why should I go around expecting free service from others? How do I want that person to survive?⁣


Dear friend, normalize paying for services. Especially if you’re someone who expects to be paid for yours too.⁣


And if, for any reason, you can’t afford professional help, consult Google. There’s a lot of helpful health information online.⁣


But please, be careful. Some of that information can be misleading. So use wisdom.⁣

Kelechi didn’t graduate with his mates. ⁣


In fact, he dropped out in his third year because his father fell terribly ill and the family’s income dried up overnight. ⁣


He took up work as a bus conductor. ⁣


Then a factory worker. ⁣


Then later a store assistant at a bookshop. ⁣


While others his age were posting graduation pictures, he was waking up before dawn to catch the first bus to work.⁣


But he didn’t stop learning. ⁣


He would read during his break. Sometimes he would scribble thoughts into an old diary he carried in his back pocket. ⁣


Years later, that diary became the starting point for the book he wrote, one that later became a national bestseller.⁣


What’s the point?⁣


Your path may not look like the popular one. ⁣


You might not tick the usual boxes.⁣


Your wins may be slow, quiet, and unseen by the crowd. ⁣


But that doesn’t make your journey less meaningful. In fact, it’s what makes it unique.⁣


So, dear friend, don’t rewrite your story to look like someone else’s.⁣


Don’t erase your humble beginnings just to fit into a narrative that’s not yours.⁣


The setbacks, pauses, reroutes, are all what form a beautiful rhythm that makes your story yours alone.⁣


And someday, someone who’s struggling will find light through the pages of your journey.⁣


So walk it well.⁣


Your unique journey is the greatest story ever told, and you’re still writing it.⁣

For quite some time now, I haven’t really been feeling well.⁣


I know that may come as a surprise to some of you because I still show up online like everything is fine.⁣


What most people don’t know is that anytime I feel even a little better, I batch-create a lot of content and save them on my phone. ⁣


So from time to time, I just copy and paste from my drafts to my timeline. That’s how I’ve been managing.⁣


Anyway, there’s someone who’s somehow close to me. She’s called about three times to check on me.⁣


But each time she calls, she always says, “I’m sorry I’ve not been able to come visit you. It’s just that there’s no one to watch over my shop.”⁣


And each time she says that, I can’t help but think to myself, “If it were your child that was sick, even in another state, you would have shut down that same shop to be with them without thinking twice.”⁣


Now let me be clear, I’m not angry at her. I’m not even trying to judge.⁣


I’m only sharing this experience to point out one hard truth about people:p...⁣


Human beings are naturally selfish.⁣


The moment you accept this truth is the moment you stop killing yourself trying to please everyone at the expense of your own life.⁣


Unless you’re being led by the Holy Spirit, please don’t go taking bullets for people who won’t even take a slap on your behalf.⁣

It’s easy to overlook the small steps, especially when the big results haven’t shown up yet. ⁣


But every effort you make is proof that you’re moving forward. It may not look big, it may not feel fast, but it matters.⁣


Waking up early to plan your day. ⁣


Sending that email even though you were nervous. ⁣


Saving a small part of your income. ⁣


Learning one new thing every day. ⁣


Saying no to distractions. ⁣


These may seem like ordinary acts, but they’re the building blocks of extraordinary progress.⁣


Consistency doesn’t always look impressive at first. But it’s what separates dreamers from doers. ⁣


The more you show up, the more you build muscle - mental, emotional, and even financial.⁣


Celebrate that. ⁣


Don’t wait until everything is perfect. Don’t wait until others clap for you. Your effort is a reflection of your focus, determination, aNatnd refusal to quit.⁣


You’re not just trying, you’re growing. And growth deserves to be acknowledged. So, celebrate every effort. ⁣


Soon, your efforts will speak loud and clear, dear friend.⁣

I was having a conversation with a young lady recently. She’s a teacher in one of the schools around my area.⁣


We started talking about work, and she began to pour out her frustrations. According to her, teachers in her school rarely close on time. In fact, most times they’re there till 10 p.m.⁣


During the midterm break, they didn’t get any rest. Instead, the school held an event for teachers. And apparently, that’s how it’s always been. ⁣


Even during holidays, they hardly get any time off. There’s always one training or the other lined up.⁣


With a tone full of bitterness, she said to me, “Ma, I’m tired. I really wish I could get another job.”⁣


Now, you may be wondering why she’s still working in such a school. Let me tell you why.⁣


The school pays better than most schools in the area. And to be fair, their school fees are higher too. So to me, it makes sense. If you charge more, you should pay better.⁣


But here’s what many teachers don’t understand.⁣


Most schools that pay higher salaries usually demand more from you. They will use all your time, energy, and in many cases, they won’t tolerate any mistakes. One slip-up, and you’re out. That kind of work environment breeds fear and tension, and at the end of the day, it’s the pupils who suffer for it.⁣


So, I often tell people who are looking for jobs, especially teachers, that before you say yes to an offer, sit down and do your calculations. Make sure there’s a balance. Don’t just chase the money.⁣


Yes, I understand that the economy is tough, and we all need money. But truth be told, no salary will ever truly be enough.⁣


That’s why it’s important to find a job where you’re not just earning, but also growing. A place where you can breathe, learn, and still have some time for yourself, so you can invest in other things that’ll help you become a better version of you.⁣


Understand that every time you say “yes” to one thing, you’re automatically saying “no” to something else. No, you can’t eat your cake and have it. ⁣


But you can make decisions that create balance in your life.⁣
