Good morning oh!

you wouldn't believe this. I've suffered. A lot. A whole lot.

"What happened to you?"

Thank you for that intelligent question. You will not fall down.

That's how I was drinking my garri in peace yesterday until I poured the remaining little content of the cup into my mouth and my teeth stepped on stones (plenty of them). It did some stepping moves.

"Ah! Jesus! I shouted". I couldn't cry because in this era and time and with what is happening in our beautiful nation, our food should take pity on us. Right?

But no, my garri decided to show me shege and bring water out of my eyes. May that garri be judged in the toilet.

Well, this is why a beautiful girl like me shouldn't be drinking garri but may God help us.

Hope you're not taking garri too? Don't let your teeth step on stones. I cannot help somebody oh.

Ehn ehn! To other things.

You see in this life…

"Tomi, I'm not seeing anything!!!"

"Ah ah! Do you need glasses? Eh! You no go like come beat me?", As I was saying jawe…

There's something we call REPUTATION. (I'm sure you've heard of it before.)

And you see, as much as we have so many things to put in place to sell ourselves or sell our businesses or skill,

The place of reputation can't be overruled.

But before we go into what I mean…

Why did I even choose to talk about reputation today?

Oh! Yeah! I remember and I will tell you.

It was a sunny afternoon on that fateful day…

I was going through my emails until I came across a beautiful girl's reply (like me) to one of the emails I sent.

She said, "😂😂, You know at first I decided not to read this (she was talking about the "YOU'RE POSSESSED" email)

Then later, I thought to myself, Tomi isn't that kind of a lady, let me read it 😂. I am God's possession and it remains like that till forever. Thank you for reminding me again."

And the gods said, "Tell that to my people" and here I am.

You see that part that is underlined and bolded is for a reason and the reason being that, "assuming I was someone with a very bad reputation, she would have concluded in the heart of her heart that that's how Tomi does"

And that's why I'm here to tell you something very important and you should pay attention.

In all of your doings…

As a student, a business owner, a daughter, a son, a wife, or a husband…

You should make sure that you…

Build a good reputation, keep it and protect it jealously (you know the way you will keep your phone so it won't be stolen)

Even the Bible says, "a good name is better than gold and silver" (paraphrasing now)

Now I hope you get what I mean. I really hope you do.

P. S.: I haven't forgotten about what I said I have for you concerning how to make people buy what you sell

I still discussed with them gods and them never gree.

So, no be my fault like that.
