The young bulls are trading forex, minting non-fungible tokens (NFTs), starting a brand, going into affiliate marketing, exchanging bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash and other cryptocurrencies, learning digital skills and more.
While you're sitting at home, wishing and praying for a breakthrough without adding your own little quota.
“Heaven helps those who help themselves”
We have passed the era where mana falls from the sky. “There is no free food even in free town.”
Don’t just sit and watch your mates working hard to improve their lives.
If your mates struggle and succeeds, then eventually buys a nice car, complete their house project and live a better life, you'll be the first to scream:
“They are into fraudulent activities.”
“Na yahoo boy or runs girl na…”
“How did he/she get so much money to live such a life of luxury"
When they were having sleepless nights, you were catching a cruise. When they were beating up the market and collecting canes from the market, you were busy looking for a babe to flirt with.
Can you see you are responsible for your problems?
Some of them are even taking their time to train and teach you the things they do to let you understand that the world is moving. But you didn’t care. You learnt nothing. Instead, you cried and lamented about God not caring and providing for you like your mates.
But you forgot that you've provided no cups for God to pour his blessings into. Even when Jesus performed miracles in the Bible, he didn’t do it out of nothing. At the wedding at Cana of Galilee, “he changed eater into wine” not that he made wine fall from the sky. Even the “miracle of the five loaves and two fish"; it was reported that Jesus fed a multitude with five loaves and two fish. You have to present something to be blessed.
The age of digital skills is just beginning.
Many will move from poor to middle-class and others will become rich from it.
But you've chosen to sit at home and make excuses.
It baffles me how you expect to make excuses and money at the same time.
Look!
You can't make excuses and money at the same time.
Either you make money or you make excuses.
Never expect to make the two at the same time.
Sometimes, when I have random conversations with people I realize that they don’t know what they want. Zero goals, zero plans, zero mindsets. Nothing, absolutely nothing.
They just know that they want to do that business because a friend is into it and he is making money through it.
The truth is, even if you give them money to do that thing they said they want to do, they will end up misusing the money.
Misplaced priorities everywhere.
Do not sit at home waiting for fish to jump out of the water, prepare itself and get served for you to eat. Don’t go about begging people to give you fish. Even if they do, you’ll come back another day you want to eat fish.
Why not learn how to catch fish? Meet a fisherman (mentor), get the necessary tools and implement (skills), learn patiently, and try catching until you succeed. Once you've mastered the art, you can go fishing whenever you want, catch as many as you can, and eat as much.
Learn and take action.

This falls right in line with something I have said for years. The poor stay poor because they only know to be poor, and don't take the time to learn to be rich. The rich get rich and stay rich because they don't know how to be poor.
I started out at the bottom in life just like everyone else. I never made a ton of money working. But I DID live frugally and learned my way around investing, and as a result of that, even if I made exactly the same amount of money as all of my friends and family, I have more than all of my friends and family because of what I did with it all.
