The dread

 Hello Billionaires 

Today I write from a place of love and peace.  A place of calm and tranquillity.  The days before were filled with complains and drama.  I was depressed.  I wanted to help people in need but I needed help myself so I couldn't do anything and it pained me.

I'm overly dependent on my family. I want that to change, in fact before 20 I had decided to be my own man and work for my myself. 10 years later I am still back where I was. It caused a pain in my chest and I fell into depression. 

It would've been fine if I was lazy and did nothing about my situation but I have tried engaging my mind in a lot of things. This gave me the impression that I am not built for success, and I went into coma.  A painful one.

I don't know how to describe the night before, but it was hell.

I bet you, if you don't have a strong mentality, this will break you. It will shatter your dreams. 

On Thursday the 18th, I was on my to pick my niece from school and the voices came for the first time.  Immediately I started praying as I boarded the bike. I prayed for myself for some minutes then I gave myself a pep talk. I smiled and told myself that I am a success. On Friday the following day,   I made some cash on my trade, it felt good to know that good things were still happening. I took a break as the light went off. I went to my journal to write down a few thoughts, then later when the light came back,  I lost everything only remaining a little fragment of my total account. 

The worst part was people with whom I shared my idea made the same profits and took, while the originator suffered great loss. It pained me to my bones. I closed all trades in losses and went to bed.

In bed where I have spent some hours just lying and reasoning, the voices came again,  and this time stronger than before. Strange voices telling me I am not built for success, that I can never achieve anything good, reminding of everything I have done wrong, how I am the cause of my problems, how I'll fail my exams and go back to write them again, how I have wasted funds paid for my wellbeing,  how I have misused the trust people have in me. My heart was beating so fast as if I was racing. I was praying and begging God so I don't get a heart attack,  was feeling a sharp pain there already. I told myself I would need to do a test soon. A BP test.

I fought it, but I wasn't really strong enough. So it overpowered me. I started doubting myself. I asked God if he was punishing me for something I did wrong. I reminded him that I pray but he doesn't answer. I decided I was going to do a fast. 

When my girlfriend chatted me early Saturday morning, I told her my ordeal,  she spoke life into me.

I went to the bathroom, bathed,  cleaned my room, took my journal and wrote my lessons.  I sent her a message that I feel better. Indeed I feel better now.

Still marching on to glory land. 

Billionaire mindset reloaded. 

The next post will be about a niche I found in my trading system,  I already started testing it and recording my findings.  It's currency exchange so it will not feature here.

Thank you.

Stoic will never stop typing...😊

The first day of my life

Hello Billionaires in the making,  I woke up feeling not too excited, but it won't last. Today,  I am going to do a few assignments,  (I decided to join the work force in church but you have to go through this academy responsible for teaching good Christian virtue and the workings of the church, and so we usually get assignments after each class) it's like the regular school only that this one teaches you about the things of the spirit and general life practices as a christian) So you see, I am actually learning everywhere I find myself.  Later today, I'll do some research work on improving my blog, get to know the settings (though blogger appears to be simple, the interface is friendly) I want to give you guys the best experience as you read my stories and journey with me into becoming a billionaire.  This is a life long journey,  and even when I'm gone (hey, I'll be here for a very long time eh!) I'll still inspire you with my stories every time you come ...

A Sunday morning in May.

 Hello Billionaires!  Yesterday was a great day, and I can't wait to share it with you. How was your weekend?  I'll go first... It started with me racing to church, I was supposed to be in church 7 am for my academy session, at 7 : 01 A.m I was still home but that was about the time I looked into my phone and saw I was 2 minutes late. I jumped up, grabbed my shirt, wore it while running.  I calculated the time I'd be in church and found out it'll be around 15 minutes late. I got to the venue about the time I had planned. After the academy,  we set out for the main service proper. Apostle Joshua Selman was the guest minister for the day. Whao!  I'll talk a little about Selman. Selman is a man of wisdom.  Aside spirituality, this man reads. He mentioned some facts that you'd just know he reads.  He has a calm but domineering voice. He spoke about so many things within a short time. You'll learn from here as we go on, some of the principles he shared...

Hectic day

Whew! Hello Billionaires ! Today 1st of May, 2021, was a very tedious day for me. I even missed an online seminar.  It's a career seminar and I had saved the date in my heart to attend,  but I didn't  know what happened, I totally forgot, maybe because I didn't sleep over the night. Yes o, I didn't sleep over night, I got a distress call from my brother to assist him with an assignment which will be due for submission by 12 p.m the following day. And this assignment is not even in my field, but it is something I can do of course, so I rammed into it.  In the beginning,  nothing was forthcoming,  I usually have this, so it wasn't a problem.  I already made a sketch, a skeletal plan on how to answer the questions. After doing that, the rest of the answers will come in due time. Remember I said I needed to do an assignment (HTA) which was part of the day's plan, the one for my Academy,  yeah, that one. I couldn't do it, same problem. My head was blan...
