RE: It's 10 years already and I'm still pressing on

in #life6 years ago (edited)

Persistence, perseverance always gives rise to success. We had almost similar experience but mine was more rough. As a teenager, I used to be very extravagant with money. It wasn't that there was no money to fund my higher education but no amount of money was enough for me. I used to spend all, tuition fee inclusive, even before going back to school. At a point, my parents told me to go to hell for all the care since I wasn't the only one they were catering for.

So I had to advice myself and floated a business with my second year school fees. I would buy CD plates from Alaba market and resold in school for profits. The business flourished so much that I bought Tokumbo Benz 190 in my 4th year and became the bigboy I had always wanted to be, and by the time we graduated, I was having roughly N1.7milion cash.

It pays to always keep trying even when one is faced with imminent failure.

Quite a motivating post.
