A Path To Freedom - Doing what I do, where I do it, comes with possible consequences.

I've got things to do. Lots of plans on my mind. Sometimes, I force myself to sit back and draw up a scale of preference. I have a bigger picture in mind whenever I delve into my daily activities and I thank goodness for always aligning me on a path that I see as the right path for me. A path that leads to fulfilment and financial freedom.

For me, it's all about freedom. Being who I am, I value freedom a lot and I'm ready to work as hard as possible to live on my terms.

I don't expect this to happen within the twinkle of an eye. I know that it takes effort and I'm ready to put in the right effort. The starting point is to identify the right places to make effort. It has to be a place that increases my chances of making all my dreams a reality.

One thing is for sure, the place every other person expects me to be is not in alignment with what I want for me

Being a graduate of Banking and Finance, everyone expects me to start my career in the banking sector and stroll around the city in nice pair of suits.

Sometimes, I get notified by my Uncles and Aunties about vacancy placement made by some commercial Banks. Whenever I get this, I drop a hearty appreciation to them. Within me, I know what I want and I believe that I've already started on the right path.

The last time I had a chat with a colleague with whom I worked within the marketing unit of a commercial bank in Jos, Plateau state, he raised a point about how I'm always busy working hard despite not having a job. He knows what I'm into and he has a clue of the time I invest into this Crypto stuff. He knows how much I whined about 9-5 jobs but he can't understand why I have to choose this 'time draining thingy'.

Truth is, I spend more time working online than I ever did working for the bank.

No sleep? No problem. Sleep is the least of my problems. I know that I will get to sleep as much as I want. That's when all my goals are achieved. Haha.

This is funny coming from me because with the way my mind works, achieving one goal will lead to having two more goals and the progressive trend continues. For now, I choose to sleep as much as my body needs. After all, the ball is in my court.

I do what I do albeit the sacrifices attached to it because I see myself growing each day and I know that I can get the freedom I want if I decide to pass through the pain.

Doing what I do, where I do it, comes with possible consequences from uninformed people.

I get whispers and I hear the side talks. The ones I hate the most is to have my name in a sentence that contains fraud and scam and stuff. That's how a lot of people see it whenever they hear that I'm working online. Their first impression is, 'this guy is getting himself into shady stuff.

The country itself is not conducive for people in my line of work. Security operatives will like to oppress you once they get wind of what you are doing. The people I contacted for a house hunt started quoting high figures immediately they noticed that I work online.

Everyone thinks what they want and I don't care about the stuff in their mind.

Do you care to know how I deal with the misunderstanding that comes from less informed people?

I always remind myself what I would be, if I ever fail to achieve the goals I have.

It's more like a mind game and I play that with all humility, sincerity and every other '-ity'.

Thanks For Not Missing Any Full-stop Or Comma

Everything in life deals with passion. Once one is not passionate about a thing, we should leave him to find what he loves to do.

The problem we have in this part of the world is that people are not ready to support others, what they do is to impose their choices on others which is not good enough.

So many parents have spoilt their children’s lives all because they want him to follow in their line o profession all in the name of building the family legacy

Yeah, that's pretty much what I've come to believe and I apply it in everything I'm doing. I do what I'm passionate about and I'm grateful to God for making this passion to align with what I want for me.

The stigma that comes from people around this area is ludicrous.

Just remember to take some time to enjoy life :) You can succeed and still get out and play, catch a movie, etc.

Living on my terms has been a blessing

Glad you are energized.

I think the big decision for people like us is between saving up at an established company and then quitting to build something....or to do whatever kind of part time or gigs you can while trying to build your own work from the get go, or to try and work as a freelancer ASAP. Maybe for people in Africa, the best opportunities lie in working online. Crypto can be lucrative, just take precautions.

Follow your heart man, I'm sure you will have an amazing journey.

Yeah, the aspects of saving up in an established entity is very important to me but due to the unemployment rate in my country, it has been very hard for me to get a job. I'm not really putting all my effort towards getting one because what they pay here is not upto what I earn online. The best part of it is that my online earning can grow over time.

I decided to relocate to another part of the country and I will do it in two months time. My plan is to stay there are give more importance to my online earning.

I just hope that places like Hive will stand the test of time.

I wonder if there are other earning opportunities online for people there. My friend there has spent a few months learning to design websites. I know there is an English conversation company in japan called Nativecamp that will hire many Africans in their home country. Actually they are taking all my students 😆 but I don’t hold it against them personally of course!
