𝑭𝒊𝒓𝒔𝒕.. 𝑩𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒆𝒗𝒆 𝑰𝒏 𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒔𝒆𝒍𝒇

If there's anything I've learned in life recently is to always invest in yourself. Focus on you, your goals, visions and watch how things will turn out for good.

It's no news that I've been on an upgrade journey since January this year. Truth be told, it wasn't a simple choice as most times I even cry myself to sleep. The stress, burn out, endless project, started to get to me and at some point I asked myself if I would survive this!

Well.. Recently I finished the first phase of my training and I couldn't help but be happier. For my growth, drive, resilient, hard work, persistence and more so how I've honed my skill in the fashion industry.

Something happened recently that inspired me to share this post. It was how people who didn't believe in me started to try to get my attention. They all wanted to be in my face and I just smiled.

The congratulations were in order from people I least expected which proved that people are actually seeing you and it doesn't matter who supported you when you were trying to grow or not. It doesn't matter if all they did was to belittle your goals and vision and make you feel less ambitious.

It doesn't matter who left when you needed them the most, all that count is the fact that you believed in yourself and keep going even when it is so tough.

Watch how they'll find their way back to you once you become one step better than you were yesterday. Don't chase people. Chase your dreams! People always love to associate themselves with people who are doing well for themselves. Build your confidence, build your future.

My first trimester in the school was stress overload that I almost wanted to opt out of the next phase which will soon commence in a fortnight.

This year was me trying to struggle to show up here on the block chain after a very exhausting day, sleepless nights, banging head, swollen legs, and even when my mind was just too blank to write.

The passion I have for writing kept me going. I recall last year I never missed a writing streak but this year, came with a lot that I find it hard to keep up a week writing streak but then, whatever I came up with was from the depth of my heart because I always thought of all the amazing people I've met here.

Today I celebrate my little win, for being one step closer to my dreams. I have always wished to own a fashion home and with this bold step, I'm not far from that dream.

I am so happy to see how people who felt I was Incompetent now look at me in awe, at how daring I and my goals have made it through the years.

I will still try to show up here as much as I can but trust me when all of these is over.. I'll be back here in full force with my fire like I never left.

If all I did in 2025 was to chase my dreams then I'm so proud of myself for being a goal getter.

This masterpiece here? Was actually made by me and it's almost ready to rock.

I still have four more months to go and I am not giving up even though I know the next phase will be tougher.

I wanna look back at this day few months from now and smile and say "Grateful I took the bold step!" I know this is just a phase and it will all end in praise.

No matter what you do, never give up on your goals in life, the result is always the sweetest.
