Again guys! Do not come for me on how cliche this may sound. I know. I get it!!! But hey, you are on this journey with me so buckle up,grab some ice cream and get comfortable. Why do I sound like a you tuber? But it gets better right? Let me know if it does so I quit clowning and embarrassing my ancestors.
So you know how you can give yourself targets say for the week, the month, the year or for your relationships or your work for basically anything? Yeah? If you like me and have a million plans in your head but never get to see any of them materialize, take two seats..haha. I failed at almost everything I ever claimed to love and be good at. Like failed flat. Almost failed to make it back up. And yet here we are. Not yet there but working on getting there.
Over the past few weeks, I have been listening to a lady called Caroline Mutoko. P.S do check her out on you tube. She’s a Kenyan woman making boss moves. I don’t know why it took me this long to discover her. But hey it was worth the wait!!! I learned a number of things from her and my favorite is, “quit being average!” You need to see the look in her eye as she says average. Like its some dreaded skin disease. hahaahahaa. Took me out! Reminds me of the first time I watched ‘Queen of Katwe’, that part when the rains almost swept little Richard away and Lupita says “mwekwate”.(literally translates to ‘hold yourselves‘) Kills me to this day. Average mindset, producing average relationships giving birth to average output basically,you are an average human being. Sounds ugly right?
Now before you go judging me saying I should have known that being average is unacceptable *rolling eyes*, it just hit different this time for some reason. Anyway I had me a chat with myself and talked about a number of things like branding. Mmmmmmhh I said branding. Package yourself like a joker, you are most definitely going to attract a joker. You behave casually/never take anything serious, you gonna attract casual people in your life. And then be mad about it and then become a bitter person and then we are just an angry lot of people. Stop going to the circus if you don’t want to laugh. quit being average. Go all out or pack it up and head home.
Now, I haven’t figured it all out and clearly not about to but I am more committed to doing better. Otherwise I will become the secretary to the love nigga republic which is not acceptable in any galaxy.
