, One feeling I'd never forget in a lifetime is the feeling of getting kicked out of class during exams for not paying my school fees on time.

Even though I was the best student at the time…

It didn't count.

I would get kicked out with my closest friend at the time… We called him Aliogo

And we'd sit down and smile at each other.

It was painful but there was something Aliogo told me that never left my mind.

He said:

It's times like this that make good stories 

Whenever he said that; I would light up like a lantern in a dark hut.

It was a mindset I later adopted each time things didn't go the way I wanted.

Years later, I heard the song by AJR: 100 Bad Days.

The lyrics of the song are as follows:

“A 100 bad days makes a 100 good stories…

“A 100 good stories make me interesting in parties”

Immediately I heard this song, I loved it because it reminded me of what my friend used to tell me.

Because , life is a rollercoaster…

There's up…

There's down…

Sometimes things seem to be going well…

Sometimes things seem to be going bad…

But trust me, 

Things aren't always what they seem.

Like a rollercoaster, the lows happen, then the highs happen afterward…

So don't give up and throw everything away just because you're going through the lows right now.

Stay hard…

Buckle up…

Tell yourself that “This too shall pass”

Because it shall.

Stay jiggy

PS: , if you're observant, you'll realize I've been writing so much to motivate you this period.

It's because most people give up on their goals around this time of the year.

They feel it's too late to achieve what they had initially planned to achieve in January…

But what they fail to understand is:

Your life situation can change in a second

You never know when it's going to happen…

But what matters is that you show up every day and play your part.

That way, you're guaranteed to experience that change.

I don't want you to be like the rest of the world that are giving up…

And that's the reason for my motivating letters.

There's time for everything.
