Been a long time coming.
Been a long time coming.
All these past years and time of working hard and pressing forward my life has indeed taken a different and positive turn for as long as I can remember. These changes were not just said and do easily like the general public might thought of, but rather it was difficult (great things don't come with ease) like the saying goes. So I wanted them to be permanent and imitated so for those that are on similar situation doesn't need to speak out for the good changes speaks for itself.
Now, before this positivity being created life can be really inconsistent, can be also unfair, I mentioned these two aspect because this is the experience i had to deal with. Being stubborn and having an increased hunger for change and improvements it started manifesting gradually.
From the age of fifteen I remember vividly, I had to sit my self down by having a serious self conversation, it sounds funny right? Especially when you talk to yourself for some minutes up to an hour. This was the age my decision making aspect started.
I wasn't that matured but from my family background and settings it was clear and time to step up and start handling some self decision, coupled with I'm the first son and if I wasn't ready to start acting upon some responsibilities I might find it difficult to handle later on.
Responsibility was at the up of my life program, there wasn't a room for childish things or behaviors, distancing myself from any group I sense pressure amongst themselves, like the lifestyle trends or the inappropriate discussion on opposite gender. In all, Amy thing that wasn't matured and straight forward became a discomfort.
My siblings noticed the swift change and automatically they began adjusting also, some old conversation weren't spoken again, we started talking about how to become successful and what would be our professions.
Adulthood to me became a bit of a challenge because I started taking up responsibility at the secondary school level so I woild say it began early. But on the long run I'm grateful, I understood so many things by other people's experiences and failures. Don't get it twisted, I had mentors, I used the word plural because my parent of course was among.
Then to the hustling part, as an African automatically the pressure of livelihood will drift you off the ground if not early percussion on you so staying without a skill either technical (offline) or digital (online). In these systems cash flow base on what you have done was coming in, some bills were footed, my personal needs was also settled.
Things changed for both myself and my siblings, that mentality of waiting for my parent to provide every little thing drastically reduced, just maybe our fees(tuition fee) we handled other little things because we were not idle and lazy minded people.
Today I'm happy to have pass through and yet still on the process to greatness, as learning never ends so progress doesn't stop.
When I and my siblings are having a fun time there are still a section of period we talk about future possibilities, what we have in mind that is worth sharing bring in growth and expansion, ideas ain't limited to older ones rather everyone ideas and creativity is welcomed and examined.
Its really been a long time coming. It can only get better Hivers.

Taking All responsibility upon yourself will guide and teach someone on how to maintain a simple life
But in some families you don't have any other choice than to take the responsibility
True, there are some families where automatically the responsibility set's in even at earlier age
It very important that very one in family respond meter
