"I Cannot Come And Kill Myself"

Mi o le wa ku.

This is a very popular saying among the youths of today. I think it's as a result of the nonchalant attitude some of us have. We tend to forget our goals and aims and wishes and dreams and everything. We settle for less when we can have the best. It's a negative thought that doesn't allow you achieve anything at all.

Your mates are struggling to better their lives but because you cannot come and kill yourself , you end up being lifeless.
Your mates are reading all night to come out with a first class but because you cannot come and kill yourself , you come out with a pass. Obviously, no good paying company accepts a pass, so you'll be jobless for as long as possible. But because you still cannot kill yourself, I doubt you'll be smart enough to be your own boss.

There's another saying that, "what is worth doing at all is worth doing well". Why can't that be your favourite saying? Why do we wish to be sons and daughters of Dangote , Otedola or even Bill Gates? If they were that lazy and weren't willing to 'kill' themselves , will their lives be worth living today?

We need to get out of our comfort zones. We need to struggle. We need to hustle. We need to build a life we won't need a vacation from. We need to dare ourselves. We need to think wide. We need to act and act now!. We don't want to average, we want to be the best at what we do. I want to be the best and so i'll give what it takes.

Do not settle for less! Dangote doesn't have two heads. What makes you think you can't be richer than him?
