4 YEARS APART

It is POSSIBLE!
Peasant Farmer??
Growing up, I always knew I'd make it big. I just didnt expect to see myself in full time farming at 34. I always knew all farmers were peasants.
I finally arrived after multiple cooling breaks.
240km down.
Had to stop every 90 minutes to allow the air cooled engine to relax.
Today I woke up having faith in my beetle and decided to give it a drive from Kampala to the farm.
Pray that I reach my people.
Building a great team usually means letting go of average performers.
Keeping an average performer demotivates the top performers...so I usually don't give 7 chances. Just 2, and you're gone.
I'm on all social media platforms with significant followings on all.
X has the most toxic users, so I'm not surprised.
Lack of Capital is NOT your problem.
The biggest lie people believe is that the reason they are broke is due to lack of capital. That's only an excuse to avoid responsibility, a reason to put the blame on something out of their control.
The reason you you're complaining over no capital is most likely the same reason you have no capital. Because capital doesn't come to you, you go work hard and look for it in every way.
And when you get even just a little bit of it, you find creative ways of growing it so it becomes significant enough for it to do what you want.
The message here is that you use the little you have and wisely, using resourceful, find ways of multiplying it.
Unfortunately, people 200 years from now will read our tweets, watch our Instagram, and think that was really us!
- Twitter will make them think we were bolder than we really are.
- Instagram will make them think we were more beautiful and richer than we are.
- Facebook will make them think we were friendlier than we are.
I hope they find this post one day.
It's so much easier to start a business before you commit to having a family.
You can sacrifice meals and many other things,but won't do that with kids to feed.
Maximize your younger years.
I love this
It's this view of life that the whole essence of existence is to escape suffering, that if you suffer, there's something wrong with you.
So we learn not from the greatest teacher of lessons. We instead feel so inconvenienced by any form of discomfort.
But sit down. Process the experience, the suffering. Meditate. Realign and pursue purpose. Embrace the suffering to become finer. And wiser.
Do so and mental health won't be a thing.
Mental illness like schizophrenia is different from poor mental health. Schizophrenia is understandable, it was present in Jesus' times. Not being productive at work because your mother didnt tell you she loves you everyday is being a weakling. Not excusable.
Why do I feel like the current obsession with mental health is just a feature of a weak society?
People can't take anything tough. Everything they go through affects their mental health.
Was there a thing as mental health 100 years ago?
It's just an excuse for most people to not develop thick skin, something to blame for not enduring hardness.
