Guys: See The 5 Things You Should Avoid As A Struggling Guy (especially No. 3)

We all have our struggling days. Most wealthy

people you know in the society today all had their

struggling days; except you were born with a silver

spoon.

It is nothing to be ashamed of because as the Bible

puts it: ‘Do not despise the days of humble

beginnings’. One true fact is that you won’t even

remember your struggling days when you finally

attain success.

If you were born with wooden or no spoons at all,

you need not despair. Success is not only achieved

by physical strength; it also has to do with your

mental strength.

Your level of rational thinking matters a lot, for

without it, your physical strength will be equivalent to pouring water into a basket. I believe you know

what that means.

Below are some things you should avoid as a struggling bachelor:

1. Beer Parlors/Drinking Joints

It’s not a bad idea to visit a bar for one or two

bottles of drink occassionally (that’s if you drink).

What is killing is when you make it a habit to be

there everyday to oblige your urge for alcohol!

These spots are pocket-drainers for struggling guys.

At the end of the day, you’ll discover that you’ve not

been able to meet most of your important needs.

Why? Your habit is draining your meagre resources

at the expense of self-development.

2. Call Girls

Once you entangle yourself in this unfavourable

market where deposits are allowed but no

withdrawals, you can be completely compared to a

fly that’s entangled in a spider’s web! If you spend

N20,000 monthly on prostitutes and your monthly

income is N40,000, my brother, your future is not

brighter than the back of a cooking pot!

3. Financial Women

Apology to Phyno aka Eze Nnunu). If you can afford

a phone of N280,000 for your girlfriend without

waving, very fine. After all, we give in love. Bro, but

not when you are struggling. There’s a time for all

things. Leave these set of people for those who are

already comfortable, rich or have enough to throw

around. Life is not and has never been a

competition. You too will get there if you strive.

Don’t be fooled by flashy appearance. Women are

created with brains too; they can work and take care

of their needs. Don’t kill yourself to make a woman

look super fly while you are struggling to survive. It

makes no sense, for tides and times come and go.

Let whoever you are with know your present state.

The good ones will encourage you but the

materialistic ones…hmmm. That doesn’t mean you

should be stingy; give freely but let it be within your

means. Give with no intention to receive.

4. Competitive Life

This has never been a helpful friend to struggling

guys. What will it profit a struggling guy if he

spends N2,500 for a bottle of beer in club, knowing

fully well that the neighbourhood shops sell same

for N200? The kids who spend lavishly right in the

club or elsewhere trust their account balance. Trying

to compete with them is useless. My brother, na

you go still go house go cry! Regret is a personal

thing. Nobody regrets with you cool Ogbeni,

experience na the best teacher but to learn from

anoda man own go make you escape paying the

high tuition fee.

5. Multiple Affairs

Just like patronizing call-girls (Point 2 above),

engaging yourself in multiple affairs as a struggling

guy is a fatal blow that can slow your progress.

Apart from wasting resources, you will become less

focused. My brother, wetin you dey find go Sokoto

dey inside your Shokoto o! Even if she’s a ‘village

girl’, you can ‘package’ her as far as you both love

and understand each other. Look for an

understanding and emotionally mature girl to date;

she must also be engaged in something worthwhile.

Stop running after these little slay queens! They’d

rather prefer a yahoo-yahoo guy to you.
