This life is like a sky. It’s too big or wide for everybody to succeed together. So when it’s someone’s time to shine and succeed, if you cannot be happy for them, just look away. Their happiness and shine will never take yours. If you have been shining, another person’s shine will never deem yours. If you haven’t shined, a new shining can never stop yours from happening. If you can work with this, you will live a happy and more fulfilling life.

And finally, "Elevating My Game" means that I need to become a Better Executor when it comes to tackling the aforementioned problems. linkedin.com/posts/george-o…

Experience is the best teacher, but you don’t have to learn from your own experience. No matter how brilliant you think you are, your knowledge is limited. Besides the known unknowns (assuming you have intellectual humility), there are many more unknown unknowns. It is in your interest to find people who have travelled the same road and learn how they did it. I know the world is a 'global village' and these days, you can use AI to convince yourself that you have all the answers, but there are nuances and contexts you will miss. The cost is usually very high when you learn from your own experience. More often than not, your case will not be different. This is not a curse. The effort required to get the outlier result is not trivial, and you’re most likely underestimating variables you’re measuring for the first time.

You’ve got to stretch. You are elastic, stretchable, teachable, reinventable and remouldable. You need to create goals that will require your rewiring and your remaking. You need goals that will make your brain sweat, that will make you divorce this version of you that you don’t like. Get up!

One thing I've been reflecting on about habits is the choice of the moment — that with every action or inaction, we contribute to the building or dismantling of a habit. As simple as it is, I'm amazed by how powerful it has proven every time I've remembered to apply it. Every time we feel like doing something or not doing it, we just need to know it for what it is: we are not only about to do, or not do something. Rather we are about to add one block, or remove one block from something we are building or dismantling. Every time we do the thing we've decided we ought to do, we increase our chances of doing it next time. We increase the chances of it becoming a habit. And when we fail too, we simply need to know that the next opportunity presents a chance to pick that block back up and continue laying. The more blocks we stack up, the better. If we drop one block one day, we simply pick it back up the next day. That way, stumbling does not send us down a hole of depression. It's simply a stumble, and we can't wait to continue building. It becomes a contest of how often we pile up vs how often we strike one down. But no, the building never crashes because of one block. Today I'm grateful for: - good sleep and early rising - my new plants, especially the huge one - trust earned - creative input and feedback from team - remembering to drink more water - realizing I had always underrated the 'ogbono' soup

As we continue to work towards #foodsecurity & #sustainableagricultural transformation in Africa, integrating water management with climate-smart crop selection, improved irrigation systems, and sustainable farming practices will be essential. linkedin.com/posts/george-o…

6 sentences that will change how you think: 1. Your mind is your home. Declutter it. Be kind to it. Invest in it. 2. How can we judge people for their choices when we know nothing about their options. 3. Sometimes the wait is longer because the blessing is bigger. 4. Do it scared, do it broke, do it alone, do it unsure, but do it anyways. 5. Nothing kills you faster than your own mind. Don’t stress over things that are out of your control. 6. Wake up early, do whatever it takes to fix your wallet, body, and mind.

The great things you want for your life are on the other side of the work you have refused to do, the habits you have refused to develop, the standards you have refused to raise, the relationships you have refused to build and the systems you have refused to create.

Try your best, my brothers. The work you’re doing today in the shadows will become tomorrow’s overnight success.

Do not underestimate the work you must do to change your life. For you to HAVE, you must BE and for you to BE, you must DO! The most important work you will do will be the work you do on yourself to become that person who is deserving of the greatness you want to achieve. Working on your mind, your body, your thoughts and pre-intending your actions are deep seated works that will take years and demand so much from you. You want to experience transformation? You will have to be transformed. You want to change your tax bracket? You will have to change. You want great things to come your way? You will have to set the sail. The earlier you realise this, the earlier you can get up and deploy yourself 120% into the work that will change your life. Make Sense? Go and be fantastic today.

And whatever you choose to pursue, pursue it with patience, with clarity, and with a mind that understands the cost of sacrifices. Never lose sight of that - never become so intoxicated with the thrill of a destination that you neglect the life you have to live on the way there.
