We learn everyday and sometimes we may even forget we ever learned such a thing until the same scenario replays itself. We ALL assume to have purpose in life but a factual analysis will always reveal that our purpose is greed, lust, envy and laziness. This is what runs the current world system. These things happen day in day out, all round the clock. It is good to have a vision, but 'they how' (laid down strategy to fulfill it is of utmost concerns.

Let me draft some facts from my yesterday's article to add here. We all heard the latest platform crash in Nigeria that has ended up wrecking citizens of close to N1.3 trillion. We are talking about $860 million dollars here in conversion. Of course it is huge, the money has been illegally swindled out of the economy by fraudsters who have again taken advantage of those unwilling to learn. You heard me right, in as much as I will never be a fan of Internet fraud, many of those who just got robbed have been here before.

It was something I even had to pause and raise a question yesterday, who can continuously pay a 100% ROI ( returns on investment) after every 30 days. Even the world richest can't, they will be heading to bankruptcy if they even succeed the first month. The government can't, they will be entering into a debt that may last for as long as we can't tell. So why did people invest? Some will say they never knew much about it yet the behind the scene truth is the fact that we TRY to force opportunities.

Without doubt, life is a playground of leveraged opportunities, success lies within that mark. Nevertheless, we need to accept the fact that not all opportunities are actually opportunities, it is a bait to step backwards. Make good use of your opportunities but don't try to force it. The risk of trying to get rich quickly is that you may suffer in poverty and under freedom for a longer period of time.

I am trying to consider the fate of those who sold what they had to double it up within 30 days. Maybe they were just two to three years away from their financial freedom if they kept to their track. You know numbers can make you run out of your discipline. When you just punch the calculator and discover you can become a millionaire if you just jump in for three months at most. Some cashed out plenty without doubt, I saw such comments of $1000 turning $5000 in 30 days. In Nigerian Naira, this is like turning N1.5 million to N7.5 million in 30 days. What happens if you stay for three months?

Greed! Lust!! Laziness!!! And it all winds down to many steps backwards. A lot of Nigerians are currently starting over after the Monday CBEX platform crash. You start imagining how they will climb back in such an inconveniencing economy. Did they consider this from inception? Their calculator was showing them a Paradise. A life savings gone, do you know what this means? Some have had to work for decades to have such an amount. Most times we make decisions that affect not just us but everyone within our Circle. Consider someone who just sold his last piece of land for this business, hr has left the children with no inheritance.

I know what you are thinking, no risk, no rewards. Learn to use words wisely, there is no risk and reward standards in ignorance. I am mostly motivated by these big business owners and when I go through their profile, one thing is always unique; 'it took time'. So why do we try to bypass time? It is the more reasons I decided to focus on building a business no matter how difficult it may seem. It is better to gradually pass a stage and not get back there than to try and push a one time success that takes me to level zero when all nuts get loose. We are products of time as long as we are on Earth, shifting yourself a decade backers is a bad occurrence.

To conclude, let me add, in our pursuit of goals and financial freedom, there is a need to set standards.Envy, greed, lust and laziness leads to catastrophe. The recent CBEX crash is yet another warning and eye opener that nothing good comes that easy. Focus your energy to build a sustainable future. Exercise the needed patience while being consistent. A preacher one said, if you are looking for short cuts you will soon be cut short.
