You can’t make connections or ask for help. You attempt to figure out everything on your own, till you get that big break. And then you eventually do. But your social anxiety is still there.
I’ve been there.
I ordered stuff from an IG vendor that was delayed for over 2 weeks.
Then I received the items today with a packaging that reads, “Good things happen to those that wait”.
- 50 pushups everyday till January 30.
- 2 minutes plank, 3 to 4 sets, everyday till January 30.
- 100 squats everyday till January 30.
By January 30, you'll see changes.
Then in February, increase it.
I have not seen an actual human being today. I can’t firmly say I’ve spoken to one today, either.
I’ve had meetings today, but those people could easily be AI.
This is the direct opposite of how humans were created to live.
For those who don't know. Sending pictures the normal way on WhatsApp reduces its quality greatly.
However, if you want to send pictures on WhatsApp and still retain its quality, send it as a document (i.e choose document instead of gallery).
You're welcome.

I figured since I couldn’t thrive in a community because of my social anxiety, I had to put in twice the work that outspoken people put in. I needed to be sufficient for myself.
It worked, but it was exhausting.
However things have changed in recent times.
Tech is basically having 2 full time jobs, while juggling 2-3 client projects, and still managing to come through on all of them, at the expense of your mental health.
The moment you realize that humans are inherently selfish and that almost every action is driven by selfishness, it becomes a little easier to forgive people.
My theory is - if you’re doing great meaningful work, getting paid great money by the day, and growing yourself continually, you won’t have the time or need for any form of tech/design squabble on here.
Because your time is money, literally.
When you're hiring a designer, please understand that the work isn't in pushing pixels. It's in the thinking.
You're paying the designer to think and strategize. And that's a whole lot of work.

Imagine crucifying Chris Brown for something he did 9 years ago.
But you're in an abusive relationship and you don't want to leave.
Your brother harasses women, but you cover up for him.
But by all means, crucify Chris Brown cos he's the elected scapegoat.
Hypocrites
When I say I'm always busy, I'm not exaggerating or trying to be standoffish. I am actually genuinely busy.
When you don't have money, you have to work like an idiot. And you probably won't have time for anything else.
That's where I'm at right now.
I really hope everyone finds every good thing they’re looking for in this life.
Because outside of this bubble called social media, life is hard.
It’s hard for a lot of people, man.
It’s year 2001. You’re in primary 4.
The bell rings for break time. You run outside with your 20 naira note. You buy 2 speedy biscuit and 2 coconut biscuit.
You play a bit and then go back to the classroom, while still holding your biscuit.
Life is good, you’re happy.
The moment a woman tells me I have competition, that might be the end. This has happened before.
You don't have to tell me, I know other guys are on your case.
But when you tell me openly, you're just threatening me. I won't have it. Go and meet the competition.
Simi's album is my favorite Nigerian album this year.
Content is so rich and original.
I keep saying this. If each song on that album was released one after the other, they would all be hits.
