When it comes to investing, many people look for *EXCUSES* and often rush to say that they don't invest because they don't have CAPITAL but the truth is that it is just an excuse.

The world will never run out of EXCUSES so if you are the one who always wants excuses you will always find them.

Benjamin Franklin said and l quotes *“He that is Good for Making EXCUSES is seldom good for anything else.”*

It is true that excuses are the clutches for the uncommitted.
99% of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses.

Today many of us have so many things in our possession yet we claim not to have capital to invest. We have failed to appreciate whatever we have within our reach and even in our brain because we underestimate what have and don't understand that all we have is all we need to succeed.
*Why do you want to start where you are not?* If you don't appreciate what you have at this moment, you won't be given more.

How can a woman have a wig for $1000 and claim to have nothing to invest in her head yet busy Investing on her head. *Is the problem really money?* Do you think God can allow you to have completely nothing to start with? Definitely not. Did God not ask Moses what he had in his hands which he used to separate the red sea. God could have just commanded the Red Sea to open but he *wanted Moses to appreciate that whatever he had in his hands was all he needed.*

Stop justifying being average when you created to break records. Everytime you justify being average you are inviting an enemy.

*Mediocrity is a dream killer.* You are enough and everything you have is everything you need to succeed.

The world has now run out of clutches for your lame excuses.

*GOOD evening people

If you come from a poor home, here are five things you can do that might change your story.

A life changing thread.

1. Start looking for a skill to learn. You don't need to go to school to learn a skill, just find someone who has a skill you can learn and serve him/ her.

Money is gotten through value, if you don't have anything to offer, you will never get money.

Nobody is going to give you money for doing nothing.. learn a skill.. anyone you can.

2. Start building your mentality financially.

Learn how money works, they don't teach this in any school, You need to understand that currency is called money, how it works and who it responds to.

Use your phone and ask questions about money and various search engines and learn seriously.

3. Study rich people.

You need to start paying close attention to rich people, study their behavior and attitude about money, learn their routine and know their mentality about money, close or far, you can always have a way to visit their affairs and learn their ways, buy books, buy videos, listen to podcast, etc.

4. Don't face failures or rejection, Dare it every time, most rich people are people who once tried and failed but they kept on trying until they succeeded.

It's the mindset. Don't be scared, make mistakes, and lose it.. if you don't try, you will cry, if you don't try, how will you know if youu can succeeded.

Get those balls.

Without a hard mind, you can't succeed in life.

5. Start making sacrifices.

You must not live like others, be the last to sleep and the first to wake, stop chasing pleasure, commit yourself to the way of discipline, and pick up a habit that is consistent in making you successful.. this is the way of men brotherly.

Be wise

Achieving success is often likened to climbing a staircase, where each step represents a fundamental concept or challenge one must overcome.

Risks and failures are inevitable aspects of the journey, demanding resilience and adaptability.

Consistent effort and discipline underpin progress, while the sacrifice and late nights are the investments made towards a greater goal.

Patience is crucial, as success rarely comes instantly.

Doubts and rejections test one's resolve, requiring a steadfast focus and an unwavering hustle.

Above all, having a clear vision motivates one to surmount each step until the summit is reached.

Listen up, Men!

This might sting, but it’s the truth.

A lot of people have stories—stories of struggle, pain, rejection, hard work, dreams, and even failures. But here's the hard part: nobody will care about your story simply because you’ve been through tough times. Why? Because everyone has gone or going through something. Everyone has a story to tell of what they’ve been through trying to succeed in life.

Some was not actually their fault but life threw situations and occurrences at them. They began to fight trying to make it to the top, trying to make things work, trying to get some of the problems solved or even trying to heal. But the hard truth is that the world doesn’t care and cannot pause for a second no matter how touching these stories are.

The world only starts paying attention to your story when you make something meaningful out of it. When you use your pain to fuel your purpose, when you turn rejection into a reason to rise, and when you use your dreams as a blueprint to build something valuable, then your story begins to matter.

Think about it:
- People didn’t care about Steve Jobs’ story until he built Apple.
- Nobody cared about Oprah Winfrey’s painful childhood until she became a global media icon.
- The world didn’t pause to listen to Tyler Perry’s homeless-to-success story until he became one of the highest-paid filmmakers.

The common thread here is simple: they made their story make sense by creating results.

Your story has the potential to inspire the world, but only when you add value to it by turning it into something worth paying attention to. Pain isn’t enough. Dreams aren’t enough. Even hard work isn’t enough. What makes your story powerful is what you do with it.

So instead of expecting people to care just because you’ve had it rough, work on yourself. Grow. Build. Succeed. Create something meaningful from your struggle. Make your story one that demands to be heard—not because of pity, but because of what you’ve become despite it all.

When you become a person of value, when your life speaks of courage, transformation, and success, people will start listening. They will be drawn to your story—not because of how it started, but because of how you turned it around.

In the end, your story matters, but only if you make it matter.
Make it make sense.
