New things I hope to achieve in September.

The year is ending just like it started, the new year memory remains very fresh in my head and it looks like the time is using a special kind of boost because, in the twinkle of an eye, a fixed time will elapse.

Sometimes I ask myself why God has given me the grace to still be among the living, I don't know why and that's the reason why I won't stop appreciating him because I am a sinner and not better than those who have lost their lives. I will encourage us to always appreciate God's gift of life, the opportunity to be among the living is the foundation to achieve everything we have always dreamt of.

This is not the purpose of the article but I can't take my mind off writing this before the real deal in the article.

I was called to duty by @Esthery97, she tagged me in her article earlier today. Her article was about five things she hasn't done before and she would love to achieve them in the new month, I think I can make some of her wishes come through. Who knows if I would send her to Dubai for the end of the year vacation? That would be great right but I also have a long list of things I haven't done before that I would do in September.

Some of the things are personal while some are meant for people who have played a huge role in my life because we all deserve a good life.

Purchasing land for my farm.

I am using a space that doesn't belong to me right now for the fish farming business and it comes with lots of inconveniences for me.

There are nights I have to stay at the farm exposed to mosquitoes and cold just to have water pumped using electricity, it would have been much easier if it was my land. I would have the ponds and a small farmhouse where I can sleep if there is a need to do that.

Owning land comes at a high price now except you want somewhere in the bush where one would be exposed to danger, there is a plot of land before the farm that costs around $14,000 and I wish I can purchase it someday even if not this month.

Traveling

It is the wish of every Nigerian to travel out of the country due to the issues we are currently struggling with and I want to travel as well if the opportunity comes legally.

I have been to two African countries when I was younger and this time, I would love to travel to Europe or South America just for fun.

Why would I want to go for fun?

It looks like a silly choice but I have my reasons. Living abroad would be great, but I want my farming business to have a strong network here in Nigeria and neighboring countries before taking the step of going International.

The country is tough but I see the opportunity of making myself successful enough to help people by training and creating employment across the country through agriculture.

Before all the dreams are achieved, I would just love to go on regular vacations anytime to anywhere in the world. For a start in September, I would love to visit the Philippines so I can get to meet lots of people in the BCH ecosystem which means I would be going on a date with @bmjc98.

Let me not let the cat out of the bag before the time comes, this would be great as a surprise.

Stocking 2000 fingerlings

I am not new to the fish business but I haven't stocked more than a thousand pieces of fish before since I started the business, this is because the budget wouldn't rear more than 1000 pieces of fish to the targeted size which is 1kg per fish.

In yesterday's post, I shared the story of repair and the extension of the fish pond. This automatically means I can purchase more fingerlings up to 2k pieces as long as I can feed them.

By God grace, I should be stocking the pond with 2k fish very early this September and it would be a great improvement for me and everyone involved.

More target, more capital and I hope for more profits too

Sending my mom to Jerusalem

It has always been my mom's dream to go to Jerusalem because she believes there are things she can learn from visiting the holy city. I know she would sponsor her trip if she had the finance but since she doesn't, there is nothing bad making that dream come true for her.

She celebrates her birthday on every 2nd of October so sponsoring her trip would be the best birthday gift for her. I wish to send her around mid-September and she would return to see a surprise party on her birthday.

It would be the perfect gift for her and she would be excited about it, it is going to cost a lot but I still believe that nothing is impossible.

Trying a new haircut.

This is one thing procrastination has successfully prevented me from doing because I am afraid of what I would like with a new haircut.

Since I started going to the salon myself, I have been on the low cut while my brother is always trying something new with his hair but I am scared of losing my cool look. I said something about it recently on noise cash and @olawalium inspired me to do something different so my next haircut would be something different.

I just hope that you guys still recognize me after the haircut and if it goes wrong, I would get a face cap to cover my head until the hair is good again.

Getting a new phone.

This is the first out of all my list that I would love to do in September because my phone is old and I am tired of repairing it.

I intended to get a new one last month but the farm project drained me completely, I would wait till the end of the year if I choose to use my earnings from the farm. Instead, I would try to earn more and get a new phone.

Proposing to the woman I love.

This is something I have all dreamt of doing and sometimes I feel I am not ready for it, I honestly don't need the whole world to get that done but I think some things must be put in place before such a step is taken.

September looks like it is going to be a perfect time to go on my knees and ask for an angel's hands in marriage.

The only issue is that I have to cross oceans and seas to get to her and I think swimming through several bodies of water would give her numerous reasons to say YES.

I honestly feel like holding her hands to the altar already and I pray for God guidance as my heart ponders over it.

It looks like I am dreaming too much about the things I would love to achieve this month and I will be needing more than just a motivational speaker to tell me that dedication and commitment to those dreams would make it come through.

Everything above needs to be done with money and I hope that at least four of the cheapest on the list are achieved.

It feels like I have swayed away from the topic since I am writing with a stressed mind, body, and brain. I want to say thank you to @Esthery97 for coming up with this because I gave up on writing a post for today already but this seems to be very easy for me to write about.

Thanks for reading this silly article of mine.
