One? How about I give you seven?

1. I regret not being consistent.

2. Not facing my discomfort avoidance early. That thief has robbed me blind—time, growth, grit, relationships.

3. Not mastering software engineering in my early twenties. I like to bite more than I can chew. Too many interests, Jack of all fvckin trades... Shoudav picked one skill, mastered it like a god, then move the next one.

4. Not paying attention in school. It was a village school, my teachers were awful, and it was easy. But village school or not, I had textbooks. I just didn’t put in my best.

5. Not being ambitious enough. Not building a business after school and the first two jobs. I would have failed, almost certainly but I also would have since learned what I'm learning now. My money game weak when I should’ve been moving mad.

6. Not buying Bitcoin when it was the price of suya.

7. And oh—I missed my japa window. When it was cheap and easy.


You're not alone in that 6 and 7. Regrets plenty but what to do? Don't ever let them hold us back.

I lost my job while my children were still in the universities and I sold my house in order to fund their education.( Public and Private Universities).
Now a tenant for years and unable to build another one again. Age is also not on my side, but God is still very faithful.

This is something 1 of my physiology lecturer told us some years back. To say you don't have regrets means you've not been living!!!

Op didn't say you should give advice Juliet, he said tell us your experiences that others may learn.

Now, can you tell us your experiences or you want to send it to my DM?



I spelt these out in codes. I expect you to read between the lines to figure out the experience(s). Cheers!

Marrying out of pity and also marrying a man older than me with ten years
What do you think is the ideal age difference between couples?


And what's the bad experience you had in marrying a man 10years older than you?

Staked 1k plus odds sporty. Cashed out 22k out of almost 3milla game. Everything later came

Stake games with confidence and trust the process. Avoid cash out like plague

If you no cash out the game go cut..
They allocated special juju for that.

Haaaa....is it the money aspect or generally?

Academics in Nigeria is not worth it. After PhD we still earn less than an entry level bank officer. You publish or you perish. It's a low life job.

For me it is that i did not follow Jesus quite as much i should. By following Him i mean obeying Him completely in every sense of the word. For obedience to His Word brings success, breakthrough, deliverance, wisdom, peace, security and life everlasting...
I know what i am saying because at 48 years today with four children and a lovely wife but things are not balanced i can share and advice alot
