Thread of books I read in 2025!

One thing I love about traveling, is that it breaks the illusion that your current life is the only possible one.

i sat down and figured out what i want for myself for the rest of this year so i’ll be rejecting everything that doesn’t fit into these desires from here on. it’s a good year to say no and say it boldly because in turn, it becomes a yes for everything else that’s suited for me.

I might go “yoh haa.a” every morning because I have do work but I’m truly grateful and I’m going to continue to show up

The moment you make someone your lifeline, you hand them the power to sink you. People leave. Life doesn’t end. New people always come.

Best career advice that I can give: Don't ever attach yourself to a person, a place, a company, an organization or a project. Attach yourself to a mission, a calling, a purpose ONLY. That's how you keep your power & your peace. It's worked pretty well for me thus far.

Very specific times I want a boyfriend: After 8pm My friends are busy There is a cute tiktok trend i want to do I'm cold I'm at a family function On Sundays My friends are busy I'm bored There's a bug in my house

I love an audacious goal so much. ‘I don’t think that’s realistic’ - na my size , leave am for me.

She tells her real friends. Everyone tells SOMEONE.

The secret to maintaining friendships as adults is just to hang out when it’s possible

Not to sound delusional, but please pray for grace. Life isn't really about hard work. It's more about meeting the right people, grace, mercy, and favour.

I want to look back in five years and be glad that I never gave up.

I feel that, if you close to a friend, you know their journey, how hard they worked for their career, finances, children or other goals, you’d less likely feel envious, because you have a full picture. It’s easy to feel envious when all you see is pretty WhatsApp stories.

Agreed!

What doesn’t kill you only wants to be friends but more than friends but less than lovers but not a situationship.

my greatest fear is being a wasted potential, I want to be everything I can be in this lifetime . I don’t wanna look back and wish I could have done certain things , I wanna do them NOW .

People are so obsessed with appearing private it’s become its own spectacle. Curated mystery in a way, That’s why they eventually feel the need to “pop out” and announce themselves to prove that the quiet meant something and they were doing something transformative. Just live.

Long as the earth is round, there'll always be people doing better than us in one way or another and sometimes they will be our friends. Learn contentment, learn gratitude and that fingers are not equal. You can be happy for them and still want that to be you.

One very important step in de-victimising yourself is to STOP being the type of person that tolerates stupid shit. If you keep being understanding of bullshit, make sure you’re aware of the hand you have in your own misfortune.

In summary, a friend’s win should be treated as win for your personal ecosystem. It translates into more access or even motivation for you. And generally it is fun to be friends with someone who is happier today than they were yesterday. Success is not a zero-sum game

It’s why a lot of you are very judgemental. You categorize people as either “good” or “bad,” instead of recognizing that most people exist somewhere in between.
