SUCCESS COMES THROUGH PROVOCATION

Journal. When things are not moving well for you, sit back and think. Go back to the chessboard and redraft your mission. If I have achieved any damn thing in my life, that's my key. Life has dearly left me with some lessons. When you fail and continue to fail, sit back and ask yourself some critical questions. Where have I gotten it wrong? Why am I failing? Am I repeating same failed procedures? What can I do to move on? My friend wrote his first Jamb examination when I was in Ss3 and scored 200.

About 60% victims of...

FIVE MINUTES ECSTASY COULD BE DANGEROUS

We  often  played in the  mother 's  bed  whenever she wasn't  around .  The  joy  of it  all  was that we always abandoned the  food   kept  for  practice and us our own cooking.  Her  mother 's  Brother   was  the  landlord  of my  mother 's Restaurant.  Smiles... we  didn't go much in  naughty .   We   knew  nothing much then.  The  joy  of it  all  was that  we  always abandoned the  food   kept  for  practice  and us  our own cooking. Amaka  and I  were  age mates.  She  had  two  sisters .  We all played on such sound big bed.  We  rode  tyres through the serene streets, and I would often abandon my  father 's  shop  to  play  with her.  It  was  a lovely childhood.
