No Gree For.....

It's just the 12th night of the year and somebody somewhere is already asking 'I thought and hoped that this year will be better but why are things even more difficult for me?'🥲

I read the report of a lady who committed suicide recently. 

She left a note saying 'Nothing is working...'

Tear dropped from my eye as I read the note she left behind. 😥

Life has a way of testing one's conviction and capacity to take in pressure. 

In this same year that's just 12 nights old, some people have lost their jobs, folded up businesses and lost grounds. 

If you are going through a lot at the moment and you feel as though you will soon break, you will need to learn to hearken to do what I am about to share with you. 

1. Build mental toughness

Let me explain, the idea of mental toughness is that you become strategically resolute in the pursuit of what you want. 

This is what 'No Gree For Anybody' means😁

It means you insist with wisdom. It's a decision to get up even when beaten back. 

It's showing up even with tears in your eyes. 

Everyone who has beaten life at its game knows that the pressure will not last forever. If you keep pushing back, you will win. 

You get a rejection mail from a company you applied to last year August (and you still desire to work there), you can send them a mail telling them how much of experience you have gained since the last time.

As a business owner, the first post you made on Facebook/Instagram this year and even sponsored didn't really get you any enquiry from potential clients, post another and another albeit this time strategically. This could be to target a new set of audience with a better graphics. 

2. Build a strong network of people.

There are people you must have in your corner.

These are people who can supply strength to you when you down. 

You must be wise enough to keep them within your circle. 

You also should learn to give and share with these people, don't just 'get get'.

You need to belong to a community where you can contribute and have your voices heard.

Soon, you will be a shoulder that others can lean on too as you win gradually.

Wipe your tears and smile.😊

It's a GREAT year!

Sò gbò? 🦻🏼

We will win💪🏼🙌🏽
