My experience in a Danfo Bus
I was thinking this afternoon then, I remembered an incident that happened some years back and I decided to share it with you guys.
Most people do not realize that the little actions they take everyday, and which they think do not matter much, often have far reaching consequences.
I remember the day I was traveling back from Olabisi Onabanjo University after writing my *post-utme examination in Ogun state*.
When I got to the park, I boarded a commercial bus going to Lagos. The bus was overloaded, the road was in a state of disrepair, and the ride was bumpy and uncomfortable.
Everyone kept complaining about the bad road, including the driver, who complained the most - understandably. 'Why can't the government maintain these roads? ' He kept wailing.
Halfway through the journey, we got to a toll gate. As we drew level with the toll booth, the driver quickly slipped a two hundred naira note - half the correct fare to the toll collector and drove on without collecting the ticket.
Not in the least surprised by what had happened, I said scornfully to the driver, Do you see why your government can't maintain these roads? He flashed me an angry look and said: What is two hundred naira? Can it maintain the roads? 'No it can't, of course, I returned. But multiply that amount by the number of fraudulent drivers like you. Then multiply that figure by the number of days in the year and so on....
His lips were just shaping an angry retort when suddenly there was a deafening bang as the door disengaged itself from the vehicle. Everyone was alarmed and was wondering what caused the noise as only those in the back seat saw the door unhinged itself from the vehicle.
Afterwards, the conductor and the driver were able to proffer a solution by fixing the door again. The journey continued...
After reaching about three quarter of the journey, those of us seating at the back seat started experiencing a certain degree of hotness which was increasing by the moment.
Personally, I was wondering if it was my imagination because it was a wooden seat or it was my body reacting after traveling such distance.
Immediately, as if on cue, all of us shouted for help simultaneously. The vehicle screeched to a halt as soon as the driver stepped on the brakes. All of us jumped out of the vehicle as soon we could.
Then, the conductor walked towards the bonnet hoping he could detect what was wrong with the vehicle.
After his diagnosis, he concluded that the radiator was void of water. I looked calmly at him and said "This is poetic justice ".

Work towards your goals
No good thing comes in an easy way, you have to work hard for it.
The goal you have is yours for a reason, not anyone else concern,
Break down your goal to plan today and work towards it everyday. Never listen to the noise of the environment, it’s a distracter, keep on a deaf ear to the environment, it makes you annex your goal faster.
Life
This thing we call life is not a destination with an end but a path down which we continue to journey as long as we can breath.
Life is to be lived not squandered or to give away waiting for the end to close upon us.
Accomplishments will prove to be a journey, not a destination.

Not everyone believes
Sometimes, no matter how much people care about you, they won’t always understand or support your vision—and that’s perfectly okay.
It’s yours for a reason, so dare to swim against the current in pursuit of whatever it is you dream of.
In the end, you will find there’s no greater success than achieving what you believe in and make happen on your own.
Good morning
Don't waste it
💥💥 *DO YOU KNOW* 🤔
📌📌```
Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.
Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking.```
Good morning
Failure builds character
You learn more from failure than from success.
Don’t let it stop you. Failure builds character.*
When you replace ‘lose’ with ‘learn’ in your vocabulary, the thought of failure becomes less daunting and lets you focus on growth .
Good morning
Believe...
Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work.
And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking.
Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it.
World class colleagues, Good morning
Watch...
Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.
Get something going

The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them._

You can do exploit
```You could be the brightest bulb in the box and still not shine as brightly in exams. The outcome of an exam will not define you and your intelligence. At all.```
Always understand that if you struggle in one area, you’re not bad at everything.
World class colleagues, Good morning 😁
Hardwork pays...
Everybody wants to be famous, but nobody wants to do the work.
I live by that. You grind hard so you can play hard. At the end of the day, you put all the work in, and eventually it’ll pay off.
It could be in a year, it could be in 30 years. Eventually, your hard work will pay off.```
Be Kind
People will take advantage of you,people will always talk behind your act that is their way to see life but If you are kind you will find a way and you will always have the power to say kindness is like a sweet act and its truly a known fact.....
Be kind and you will go far in life ......
Be Kind and you will be happy and wise.....
Kindness always pays in life!!!
*Morning world* 🌞😊
Never give up
Life may not give us the best at all time but that doesn’t mean we should quite on life. This life is full of Ups and downs, We don’t have to think of end when we are down, table turns, up we move again._
~~Don’t ever think of giving up on life, today can be the the day destined for you to go up.~~
You Can Do Exploit
Don’t limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, remember, you can achieve.
It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.
Use your time properly

Believe in your potential

📌📌```
Successful and unsuccessful people do not vary greatly in their abilities. They vary in their desires to reach their potential.
Knowing and believing in your own potential can be part of your journey to being successful. If you start to believe in yourself and your potential more, you can become more motivated to prove yourself. When you think you can’t reach your potential, you may not even try.```
