Mind your business...it pays better



Learn to define success in your own right and not on the might of others.

Success is whatever you want it to be and not what the society or your village people assume it should be.

If they complain that you talk too much, allow them, talk is free and it's your mouth not theirs.

If it leads you to failure then it's your mistake not theirs.
Own it!

It's bad to keep too many companies and friends, they say...

But don't be bothered, it's your life not theirs, if they lead you astray, go astray and find your way back.

Learn the lesson yourself.

If they say you spend too much, it's your money, you worked hard for it.

Don't feel bad for spending your own money.

Don't accept their advise, you didn't hire them to be your financial adviser, if you needed their expert advise, you'd have hired them, but you didn't because they are poor and insignificant and so is their opinion.

Their opinion doesn't matter.

Isn't it funny in life how those that matter don't mind and those that mind don't matter?

They are so caught up in everything you do, every step you take and every move you make is a topic of discussion.

They have become professionals in analysing your life. They even think they know how to be you, better than you.

Your success is your business, maybe if they pay as much attention to their own life one quarter of what they pay yours, perhaps they will be successful.

Perhaps...

Whatever their definition of success is to you or how you should be successful, shouldn't matter to you.

Your definition and yours only matter.

Your success is your business, mind it yourself and don't give someone the power and control over your business, let them mind theirs.

Everyone should just learn to mind their business.

I hate my Job

Warning: Strong adult content 18+ I hate my job My boss, Miss Patricia, is a tyrant 40+, beautiful angelic face and even more perfect body, with a lovely smile, that she hardly uses, single mom of two beautiful teenage girls, whose pictures are hung everywhere in our offices. While her exterior is sweet and beautiful, her interior is dark and evil. Always barking orders at the rest of us, like children, her voice is so loud you wonder where she has the energy to scream in such a high note all the damn time She is so feared, her car horn is enough to immediately drown whatever noise or laughter is coming from the entire building The popular saying among us, her staff members, is that the fear of Patricia's horn is the beginning of wisdom I spent years searching for a job in the streets of Lagos, begging even, embarrassed by security men and spat at by lousy and saucy receptionists, to quit this one just like that. We die here! I was prepared to eat shit for as long as I could, so I ...

The Law Man

*Longshot* "Aim!" "Fire!" kraaakkkk kaaaaaaaa krrrrrrrr!!! Sounds of gunshots rendered the air as six policemen died, all tied to the drum and shot by their comrades. Six corrupt policemen once again killed on the orders of the new police chief, totalling 600 since Nonso was elected Police chief read the Star Newspaper. The biggest and most popular newspaper agency in the country. Nonso holds the record as the youngest police chief in the history of the Nigerian police force. And the most lethal. He singlehandedly ended the reign of terror by the SARS operatives, totalling disbanding the unit, executing most of them to the dismay and utter disbelief of the local and international community. How can one man weild so much power, and why is the presidency backing him up. But Nonso was not just any man, Nonso was the man you called to clean up a mess and he did it without leaving a trace of stink nor stench. At 35, his resume was a reflection of unsurpassable exploits a...

 Warning..... 18+ You have been warned!!! I looked at the phone in my hand for some minutes as I turned on my bed, planning my next move  The excitement of getting a new phone was eclipsed by what I was about to do So, putting on my latest expensive transparent black gown carelessly on my thin, fit and light skin body, I waltzed out of the bedroom like a woman with a goal and went straight to the house next to mine I knocked twice and listened  In minutes, I heard a voice call out... "Coming..." Then a lazy slap of feet on tiles followed, you could tell from the sound and vibration approaching the door that it was not an ordinary feet but two strong legs hitting the ground with power The door opens in slow motion and an average height, chocolate skin young man just getting past his mid 30's but still looking prime and delicious, zero beards, strong jawline and broad shoulders, sitting on a rather large chest, stood in the doorway, surprised to see a beautiful young lady i...
