It's a beautiful new week again. How did you spend your last week? Mine was super excellent and Glory be to God in the highest. Let me start with something funny. I watched a short clip on a WhatsApp status yesterday and this lady listed the five shortest cuts to poverty. Here they are;
I go do am (I will do it)
I go soon do am (I will soon do it)
Let me think about it
I will get back to you
I don't think I can do it.
All of these leads to PROCRASTINATION and this is the Father of Poverty.
Many people love to postpone things which I was one of them before. I used to shifting things and I was greatly affected then until I came to a realization that I am ruining my future and even inviting poverty to my future also. Ever since then, I have seen changes when I started doing those things I needed to do at the right time. This is why I make goals each day so as to help me avoid procrastination.
Yesterday was a wonderful day to me because I woke up in a good shape and gave thanks to God. I went about my normal chores for the day. I plaited my hair naturally as I needed to do away with weavon or attachment for now perhaps until December. My friend prepared MoiMoi (a Nigerian local meal made with Beans) I bought bread to eat it and when I was through, I started my daily engagement online (Readcash). I am used to saying to my friend that I have a lot to do online with my phone and she would just stare at me and be like "is it everyday your work is always much?" I smiled and told her if only you know what I do there.
She is also one of those who WhatsApp and only visit Google whenever they have assignment at school. She even argued one day that her phone battery is always strong. Those with her asked what she uses her phone for? Is it not to only WhatsApp and Call? What about those who have a lot of things to do like going through Google, reading, Blogging and so on.
I was in my room then and I kept smiling. I said in my mind, isn't my phone strong too? If I should leave it without data on, and I only used it to call, my phone can go days before I charge it. I didn't want to interrupt them then but minded my own business inside.
She even gave me two small coconuts yesterday
I have never seen a Coconut so small like this before and I teased her if she isn't using style to lure me into a dark meeting because if I eat this and I found myself at 1am in a meeting....š š We both laughed. I eventually gave one to another person. At least if I am to attend a meeting, both of us including the one who gave us coconut will attend such meeting.
It was getting late already and I quickly prepared my dinner of Spaghetti with Egg and I spiced it with Vegetable. It took me some minutes to finish my cooking and after I finished eating, my temperature was getting hot. I was having backache due to bending when I was cooking.
I thought I had some Paracetamol at home because I do have them in case of days like this but I couldn't find it. I went to ask my neighbors but none of them has it. I went inside and I was feeling sick within me. I quickly remembered the last time I got sick and was admitted in the hospital. I prayed thereafter and slept around 9pm.
I even set my alarm to 4am as usual to pray but I didn't know when I woke up at 5:36am this morning which my reading time is past. Thank God I was feeling very okay as if nothing happened last night.
I had to get prepared for Church because I am always waking up early to use the bathroom. There are thirteen rooms in the building and if I don't wake up early to take my bath, I will be late because we would have to queue for our turn.
This is why I always wake up early enough so as to have time for myself in the bathroom unless I don't have Lectures in the morning. Let me just say this is another reason I need to relocate so I can have my own shower room to myself and not dragging queue with anyone.
Thank God also that I took the step to stake $EBEN with my Bch worth $20 yesterday. When Fexonice reminded us in the group, I decided to opt in this time so I don't get to miss this opportunity. With the aid of his illustration and also going through Jane's article she made about it, I was able to buy and stake Eben. I staked when the price was at $0.98 but after then, it went up to $1.1 . If I had jump into this when it started at a low price, I would have earned a lot but at least I still have something to gain from it. I would be staking for as long as I want as I am also contributing to the growth of SMARTBCH which is a nice move since I am a hodler of bch.
Let me stop here for now until I return back from Church to start my work before lectures starts from tomorrow. I would be having some tests this week and I believe God will help me only if I helped myself with reading which I am trying my best. I wish us a pleasant and beautiful week ahead in Jesus name. Amen
Thanks for reading from me today again.

It's my first time seeing that small coconut with that shape. We do have small coconuts but its round in shape.
