Technology is all about using the power of science to make life better for people, to reduce cost, to improve comfort & productivity

Sometimes your value isn’t seen until your absence is felt.

A man can be interested in you, despite you rejecting his advances, he'll keep on hoping that you'll come around. But then out of the blue, he just stops caring, moves on. And that's when you start wanting him but the spark is no longer there, he's no longer interested.

If you hire 700 men in Nigeria and be paying them 400k a month, there is a good chance you will attend 400 to 500 weddings by December. If you hire 1000 women and be paying them 700k a month, they will be waiting for men earning 1.5 million naira monthly to come and propose to them. Women don't distribute wealth!!!

Do you understand what it means to say a distributed system in system design? In plain, simple terms, a distributed system, as the name implies, is not just one server. It is multiple machines working together as a single system. Let me use GTBank as a very relatable example. You do not have just one server sitting in Lagos. There are servers in Lagos, Abuja, and possibly even outside Nigeria. When you check your balance or send money, your request can hit any of these servers. They coordinate, sync data, and respond as one unified system. That is a distributed system. Seems interesting, right? Yes, it is. But have you ever asked questions like: “What happens when there is a network issue?” That is where CAP theorem comes into play. Let’s continue 👇🏿

In this generation, you gotta be the man who has zero desire to be seen. Just busy, paid, hard to reach, and out of sight. You'll go far in life.

Be thankful for all the struggles you go through. They make you stronger, wiser and humble. Don't let it break you let it make you.

Bro to Bro: We're not behind, we just didn't get it handed to us.

@_falsi1ke Beautiful women are everywhere. Successful men are rare. Become the prize G.

Men realizing that they are actually the prize is what annoys women the most.

An old man in the construction business told me: The real magic of staying in one industry starts to happen 10+ years later. So hang around.

A lot of men are quiet right now… not because life is easy. But because talking doesn’t fix it. So they just deal with it silently.

Anyone who says “business is not for everyone” clearly doesn’t talk to enough business owners. All of my friends run their 7-8 figure businesses in completely different ways: - Some lead teams of hundreds of people. - Some don't want more than five employees. - Others don’t even want one employee. Yet ALL of them have thriving businesses. So if you really want to get into business, you just need to self-analyze and reflect: - What are my strengths? - What are my actual weaknesses? - How can I be conscious of those as I go into business? And once you have the money, hire the people to plug up those weaknesses as quickly as possible.

Hard work often feels invisible while you’re in it. The early mornings, the late nights, the sacrifices, the consistency, most people won’t see that part. But that’s exactly where growth happens. Every time you push through resistance, you become stronger, sharper, and more resilient. But always remember; success is not built on one big moment. It’s built on hundreds of small decisions to try again, to stay focused, and to improve just a little more than yesterday. Even when you feel stuck, you are still moving forward if you refuse to give up.

There’s a lesson hidden in everything. You just have to find it.

Create content ONLY for people who need your help, value your expertise and want your solution. Everyone is NOT your audience.

Stop trying to be the smartest person in the room. Start being the person who listens the most.

It’s better to know and be disappointed, than to never know and always wonder.

The world doesn’t reward good hearts; It rewards good strategy. Feelings don’t scale, only systems do.

Harsh truth: Most people lack the competitive spirit it takes to succeed. Now more than ever, people simply give up, ignoring their future, all while being drawn to escapism. The "huge" competition everyone talks about does not exist. The bar is low.

@Mtshub That’s what took me time to learn, feeling it is normal, acting on it is optional.
