💙🌿❤️ WOW!… I’M GRATEFUL!
Be patient to read this. It might bless someone today.

There are skills you have — that you practice every single day — without even realizing they have names. 😀
For me, being a Virtual Assistant was one of such.

I have always been helping people organize their businesses, manage tasks, and keep things in order… long before I even knew the title existed.
So earlier this year, I made a decision:
👉🏽 Get certified.
👉🏽 Do it right.
👉🏽 Do it well.

I started my ALX Virtual Assistant journey in January 2025, full of excitement and determination to finally put a name and certificate to what I already loved doing.
But life had its own plans.

Not long into the program, my health suddenly became challenged 😭😭😭.
I was literally fighting for my life, but my mind was still thinking about completing this dream.
Days turned to weeks, weeks into months… and I could hardly do much.

When I finally regained strength, I realized I had to start all over again. 😳
And remember — it wasn’t a free course! 😄

Still, I re-registered and began again, one step at a time.
But just two weeks into my restart…
💔 My dad passed on.

Tears became my food every night.
I felt empty, drained, and uncertain about everything.
Emotionally, I didn’t think I could continue.

But something inside whispered, “Keep going.”
And that’s what I did — I kept going.

Through pain.
Through tears.
Through faith.
Through God’s grace. 🙏🏽

Today, I can finally say — I made it!
I am now a Certified Administrative and Executive Virtual Assistant from ALX! 🎓💪🏽

This is more than a certificate — it’s a story of:
🌿 Resilience
💙 Persistence
❤️ Hard work
🌿 Perseverance
💙 And in the words of ALX — “Doing hard things.”

So today, I’m not just celebrating a certificate.
I’m celebrating grace.
I’m celebrating strength.
I’m celebrating a comeback that almost didn’t happen.

If you’ve been fighting silent battles while chasing your dreams, this is your reminder —
👉🏽 Don’t give up yet.
👉🏽 Try again and again… until you win.

And yes — I’m officially available for:
✨ Executive & Administrative Virtual Assistance
✨ Inbox & Email Management
✨ Scheduling, Documentation, and Business Support

You can now call me your Virtual Assistant with a story and a certificate! 💙🌿❤️

❤️🌿 Don’t Lose Your Fire

Some seasons will test you.
You’ll do everything right — yet nothing seems to move.
You’ll pray, plan, show up… and still feel unseen.

But please, don’t lose your fire.
Even when it feels like life paused, you are still growing roots.

One day, you’ll look back and realize that this silence was building your strength. 🌱

💙🌿 Stop Calling Confusion Strategy

Some people are not stuck because they lack motivation. They’re stuck because they’re calling confusion “strategy.”

You can’t keep doing 10 things halfway and expect one of them to work.
Focus. Finish one thing. Then move to the next.

Sometimes, clarity doesn’t come from thinking — it comes from doing one thing till it’s done.

🌿❤️ The Customer That Changed How I See Sales

Some time ago, a business owner shared this story with me.

A lady walked into her shop, looked around, and left without buying anything.
The next day, she came again — this time, she asked plenty of questions about the products but still didn’t buy.

Instead of getting upset, the seller smiled and answered every question patiently.
She even showed her a few cheaper options that could still meet her need.

Three days later, the same lady returned — this time with her friends.
They all bought from her and said, “We came because of how you treated me that day.”

That’s when she realized something:
Sales don’t always happen the first day — sometimes, it’s your attitude that does the marketing.

💙 Be patient.
💙 Serve well.
💙 People remember how you made them feel.

💙🌿 BUSINESS SECRET ALERT! — GRAB THIS NOW 🔥

Let me drop a pricing secret most people will never tell you 👇

I know a business guru who knows how to sell no matter the price. His strategy? Very simple — and very smart.

Whenever his products start moving slowly, he’ll send a few of his staff to quietly check how much his competitors are selling.
Once he gets the info, he’ll slash his own price — maybe by just ₦100.

Guess what happens?
Sales begin to fly! 🚀
Then, here’s the part that shocks me every time —
He’ll find another product that’s selling very fast and simply add back the ₦100 he removed earlier.

That’s how he balances profit and still keeps his shelves empty of slow stock.
Smart, right?

💼 Business isn’t only about selling — it’s about strategy.
And this kind of wisdom? You’ll keep finding it right here on this page. 💙

STOP MANAGING CONFUSION IN YOUR BUSINESS

One of the fastest ways to remain stuck in business is to keep managing confusion.

You can’t keep saying “I know it in my head” when even your head is tired.

You can’t keep recording sales on scattered sheets and calling it record-keeping.

You can’t keep losing customer details because your “book” got wet or misplaced.

This is 2025.
If your business data still depends on pen and paper, you’re already behind.

You need order — and order today means digital storage.
A system where your records are safe, accessible, and neatly organized.

Because one small structure of order can save you hours of stress and confusion.

That’s exactly what we do at COI DataEntry Services — we help businesses move from scattered notes to organized digital storage records that bring peace, clarity, and control.

So this week, please:
💙 Choose order over chaos.
🌿 Stop managing confusion.
❤️ Let’s help you set up a system that works.

Your business deserves clarity — and we can help you create it.

SOME MOTHERS EEEE! 🙆🏽‍♀️ Oh Chim!

I just tire today 😩

So, picture this — in children’s church, some kids were being disciplined for disturbing the class. One of the mothers (let’s call her Mother A) walked in, saw her child among them, and instead of correcting the child, she picked offense!

She told the other kids to stay away from her child 😳 … meanwhile, from what other children said, her child was the one using vulgar words —w inside church o!

And me, I was just too tired to talk.
Because how do you explain to a mother that discipline doesn’t destroy a child — it shapes them?

Now, Mother B came later. She understood the issue.
She told the teacher plainly, “Please, discipline my son whenever he misbehaves. He must learn respect.” 👏🏽👏🏽

Two mothers.
Two mindsets.
Two results in the making.

Dear parents, let’s train our children to understand the house of God.
Discipline today will save embarrassment tomorrow. 🙏🏽

💬 What kind of mother would you be in this story — Mother A or Mother B?

Don’t Judge Too Quickly

Many years ago, when I newly moved into a compound somewhere in Lagos, I had this neighbor who always went out at night and came back early in the morning.

You know how curiosity works when you’re new in an environment. One day, I asked another neighbor if she worked in a hospital or something.

He quickly replied, “Hospital ke? She’s always going to see one man.”

I remember just nodding and keeping quiet. But deep down, something didn’t sit right with me.

Months later, I discovered that the same “woman who goes out at night” was actually going to her mother’s house — that’s where her kids stayed. She only left at night after her hustle to spend time with them before the next day began.

That day, I just sighed.
Because what if I had joined the others to label her wrongly?

Sometimes, people’s lives aren’t what they look like from the outside. Everyone is fighting battles, carrying burdens, and managing realities we can’t see.

Before you judge, pause.
There’s always more to the story than what’s told.

💙🌿❤️ THE GIFT OF GOOD PEOPLE

There’s a kind of wealth that doesn’t sit in a bank account. It sits in the hearts of people who genuinely care about you.

Because sometimes, it’s not the money you need — it’s that one person who understands your silence, who senses your pain before you speak, who shows up when everyone else disappears.

If you have that one friend who may not have much, but still shares their little with you… treasure them.
If you have that sister, brother, or colleague who prays for you quietly when life gets heavy… treasure them.

This life is wired in a way that good people are the real currency. 💫

Don’t take them for granted. Love them deeply. Appreciate them loudly.
Because good people — true, selfless, kind souls — are one of life’s greatest gifts. 💙🌿❤️

— Helping you find clarity, order, and hope — in business and in life.

The Conversation That Changed Everything

I remember what a friend once shared with me — how a simple conversation changed her life.

She told me how, one quiet evening, she and her friend were talking about life, dreams, and all the “what ifs” we often avoid. She had been playing it safe, staying in her comfort zone, afraid to start again after a few failed attempts.

Then her friend said something that stuck:
“Chisom, you don’t have to have it all figured out before you begin. Sometimes, the first step is leaving what’s familiar.”

Those words sat in her heart for days.
And one morning, she finally decided to move — to try again, to build again, to believe again.

Two years later, she said to me with a grateful smile,
“I’m so glad I did. That conversation changed everything.”

💙 Sometimes, what we need isn’t a miracle — just one honest voice that reminds us we can still rise.
🌿 You may not feel ready,
❤️ but your new beginning might be waiting on the other side of one brave decision.

One good partnership can change the view 💙

In the lag of Lagos traffic, in the noise of everyday sales, there’s something quietly powerful happening:
LFBI is joining hands with Kuda Microfinance Bank to serve the Makoko community with food assistance — because nourishment is not just about meals, it’s about dignity and possibility.

Here’s the business-life reminder for you:
✅ Partnerships are not just for big wins — sometimes they’re for human wins.
✅ When you align with someone who holds your values, you magnify your purpose.
✅ The same clarity you bring to your strategy? Bring it to your network too.

If you’ve been thinking “I’ll wait till I have everything” — pause.
This is your moment to do something small, aligned, visible.
Maybe it’s a post acknowledging someone.
Maybe it’s a handshake with a collaborator.
Maybe it’s refining your offer so it helps someone immediately.

💙 Because the world is watching the quiet actions, and they’re taking notes.
🌿 You will not remain where you are — clarity + order + hope are moving you forward.

You will not remain here forever 🌿

There’s a version of you — strong, stable, smiling — waiting patiently on the other side of all this struggle.

Right now, it may not look like it. You may be wondering why life feels like it’s testing you beyond your limits. Why things you planned so carefully keep falling apart. Why every “almost breakthrough” slips through your fingers.

But I want you to pause… and breathe. 🌿

Every pain you’re feeling is a silent builder.
Every disappointment is chiseling something inside you that comfort never could.

When the storm clears (and it will), you’ll realize you didn’t just survive — you grew.
You’ll look at the person you’ve become and whisper, “So this is why I had to go through it.”

🌿 You will not remain here forever.
Light is already rising for you — one quiet morning at a time.

❤️💙🌿
