Tomorrow never comes, today never ends but our past will remind us of how well we have lived

While discussing with my neighbor yesterday about the past, i was surprised so many years have passed, we have been living together for the past 9 years and it still kinda feel like few years to me that i moved in, the last time we also discuss and she told me her daughter is now in ss2, i was surprised again because i taught the girl a private lesson during her common entrance examination into secondary school....

All those discussions made me realize i am not getting younger, time is ticking so fast but i do not regret staying in one place for so many years, what is the point of moving around changing houses or area if there is peace of mind and progress where ever i am....

I do remember some things that makes my heart rejoice though, which is my today is far better than my past, i keep climbing the ladder of success every year and My God never leave me for once...

Predict My future

If i was asked this question in the year 2011 when i started working and was earning 5000 naira, i really won't have an answer to give because i don't have any dreams back then, i was just working to earn some money for upkeep...

Things changed in 2014, i was no longer working just for upkeep money, i have become a dreamer that want something more, i want a good life, i dream of beautiful things every night and i work so hard in the day to achieve them, i was earning around 22 000 naira then and my dream was to earn more than that, atleast 50 000 naira to live the life i want....

Dreams really get fulfilled if we put in effort, in 2016 my dream of 2014 got fulfilled, i was earning something very close to 50 000 naira, even though it didn't come easy, i had to work my ass out but i achieved my aim, i started dreaming of something bigger...

I wanted to have 100 000 in savings, i draft a plan of saving some of my earnings but it just was not possible, as i was getting the money i had to spend it to fill some void and at the end i was only left with little so that dream of mine was not met that year.... but did i give up?

In 2017, i joined the crypto world, this is something i never imagined and that was even my first time learning about the online world, i didn't find crypto, crypto found me because it was brought to me by an amazing friend and i am glad i didn't ignore it like i use to ignore things that is not in the line of my work.....

I struggled in the online word for sometime but i was getting more obsessed with it with each passing day, it has now become a passion that i had to quit my other jobs so i can give it all my time...

Fast forward to 2019, i was earning 100 k monthly and i didn't really have to save for a year to get that anymore, i was so happy when i realize that, once again wishes come to pass and dreams get fulfilled, if we work towards it....

Things keep getting better from there and now, i can easily achieved times 5 of the 100k monthly now, i don't know my monthly income anymore and i never bother to calculate it... If i was asked in 2011 if i would find myself in this position today, i would laugh it off because i won't believe it...

Our future is tomorrow

What is Tomorrow?

Tomorrow is the result of what we do today, tomorrow never comes, today never ends but our past will remind us of how well we have lived...

I am a dreamer but with each passing year, my dreams become bigger and it changes too, the dream started with just me in the picture but the more i grow, responsibilities crept in and i no longer dream about a good life just for myself but also for my family and loved ones...

If i am to predict my future, i see myself controlling businesses from home and blessed with lovely kids and a loving mother to take good care of them...

As for my financial life? i would never guess that cos even i don't know what i will be worth in the future, so i won't embarrass my anointing by calling a figure, who knows if He want it to be Infinite

One last thing, i won't be in Nigeria forever... I was not meant to be in one place forever, I would love to leave someday to a place where i can feel the snow... Always remember that. Wishes come to pass... Dreams get fulfilled....

Just call me Burl.

I am a gamer, motivational speaker and a crypto enthusiast

Indeed, when there is dedication and hard work coupled with God, the life of a man takes a shocking turn and at the end of the day it results to endless testimonies, from grass to grace and that is how your life has been for years now and that is the evidence that nothing is impossible in the presence of hardwork and God...

You are a living testimony of dreams coming through but you didn't stop with dreaming, you worked your ass off to keep up with your dreams until your breakthrough came in and that was the end to life of stress and excess labour for pennies bro...

Dreams do come through but without hardwork it is just a meaningless hope and nothing more...

What is a dream without working hard to make it come to pass....
Keep breaking boundaries blood..

Hmm... Looking at our past, we could see a lot of changes today because we aren't where we are yesterday and when we hope and work hard, we won't be where we are today tomorrow. It's all a matter of wishing the best, taking action and believing in God for the best.

You've made great progress within the past years. May your dreams become much more attainable as they grow bigger :)
