You are on a journey. These matter: Your mode of transportation - If you can, invest in being carried by the big brands. They’ll create a leverage that cuts the time needed to arrive in half. How light your luggage is: Heal as quickly as possible; don't let past experiences hold you back from taking life-changing opportunities. Also, surround yourself with those who keep you inspired. Your ability to travel through a dark runway: You will not have the luxury of seeing all the great things on the other side, no real visualisation of the beauty of your dreams, but you will still take off.

There are two types of identity presentations. The first is how you carry yourself around people without saying a word. Your presence, your confidence, your actions. This one is powerful because it pushes you to act like the person you are becoming, even before the title or the role catches up. The second is telling people you are something you are not. And that one will always backfire. It gives people the wrong picture of you, and when you genuinely need help, they cannot offer it because they do not even know where you actually are. You do not need to lie to level up.

Move in the dimension of the future you are creating. Show up every day with the energy of that future, repeat your message until it makes you cringe and let your actions match your thoughts and words. The universe will align.

Some will say do not take life too seriously. My advice: take yours seriously. Nobody else will do it for you.

When you let peer pressure define what you should want, you hand over the steering wheel of your own life. You start chasing things not because they align with your values or your vision but because they seem to be what people like you are supposed to want. The danger is not admiring your peers. Admiration is healthy. The danger is outsourcing your definition of success to them.

The future you want will not build itself. It responds to what you do today. Not tomorrow. Today.

And this is exactly my problem with the principles guiding the decision-making of many Nigerians. ------------------------ Nigerians (as investors): don't build house for rent because the rental yields are low (even though that is the standard). Same Nigerians (as customers): arh! Rental prices are too ridiculous jare. What do you mean ₦1mm for self-con. ------------------------ Nigerians (as investors): what do you mean I am going to earn 20% per annum on my investment? That's too low jeez! Me I can not wait for one year to earn 20% o. Same Nigerians (as borrowers): 35% interest rate on loans??? How??? Do you want businesses to die??? How can businesses generate that kind of profit in our inflationary environment?? ------------------------ Nigerians (as employees): there is no reason why graduates should earn below ₦300k salary. Nigerians (as entrepreneurs): nah, there is no reason why we should pay more than ₦200k for an entry-level job. What value are they adding yet? Anyone who wants more than that has to demonstrate capacity and potential. ******************* This is not even about selfish interest. It is normal for that to happen, but you have to know that the principles have to be consistent. Maybe the way we think about things could change if we understood that most of these variables don't move in isolation. They are connected.

I DID IT!! SECOND CLASS UPPER FROM THE NIGERIAN LAW SCHOOL Eight years later, this chapter finally closes. I graduated from the Nigerian Law School with a Second Class Upper.

After 700 pages, the 1979 Revolution is about to kick off. Before that, Professor Amanat does a really interesting job of laying out the intellectual ferment that laid the ground for Khomeini. On the face of it, it looked like a rejection of the Shah and a popular uprising from people demanding a say in their governance. But actually, the story I took away is the common one of how a country or society's elite react when confronted with modernism and the disruptive effects it threatens. I have to say my Nigerian upbringing and understanding always made me think there was only ever one way elites would react. But reading Mark Ravina's To Stand With The Nations of The World was an eye-opener for me. The past is endlessly malleable and a society's intellectuals can basically do whatever they want with it in pursuit of any goal. Since anti-modernism is itself a product of modernism, this is a really good red or black test. The Japanese elite's reaction, when confronted with the threat of modernity, was to ransack their history and say "we have checked our history and culture and it is compatible with modernity so we are going to embrace it". This is, to be fair, unusual. So it is the Iranian intellectual response that is unsurprising. All the usual suspects you'd expect feature in the story - Frantz Fanon, Sartre, Corbin (French philosophers, man). Blended with Islamism, it produced a very potent brew of conspiratorial thinking, thirst for extremist ideas and solutions, and a belief that the entire world is working extra hard to stop us from achieving greatness. Since there is only a fixed amount of greatness available, this thinking goes, if one increases the other must decrease. As I say, all of this is very familiar to me. Much of Nigerian intellectual thought is of this conspiratorial bent. We were doing fine and all was well until outsiders came and disrupted our idyll. Ever since then we have not been ourselves. And so on. One by-product of this is that, once this fever takes hold, the dominant intellectual output becomes things that explain the *current* condition, never a vision of the future and what it might take to get there. This is why one of the most popular (if not the most popular) paper among Nigerian intellectuals and elites is Peter Ekeh's Colonialism and The Two Publics in Africa. It "explains" the current condition and thus produces some kind of comfort. This is just who and how we are. The idea that these two publics did not fall from heaven and can thus be changed, is not part of the story. Finally, you can pretty much predict what is coming next for Iran even before the current war has ended.
