Real Talk Weekend Prompt Step into the Hot Seat #13

Congratulations to the winner. More wins

@temmylade Smiles… I once believed that being a dreamer was enough to bring my visions to life. But life proved me wrong. I have learned that while dreaming is good, turning those dreams into reality requires serious work, persistence, and resilience. Life is not a bed of roses, and it is not a game as usual it is a game unusual.

@betheloji12 well I will tell my young self that a value added everyday makes one better and grow stronger everyday.

@betheloji12 If i should speak to my younger self, my advice will be. 1. To work hard because nothing good comes easy. 2. To believe in myself and achieve my aim in life.

I invite @oluchi31 @cecilia1 @nwanna. Join in discussion

Awww Awww 🥰 Thank you @therealtalkk and everyone who finds my question worthy of their time.

We go again this week with more positive vibes 👍

@betheloji12 I would tell my younger self to slow down, trust the process and build consistency early.

I would remind myself that patience, discipline and the courage to take opportunities when they come make all the difference in the long run.

@omoomowess01 For me, purpose comes first, if the goal aligns with where I am headed and what I truly want for my life, then I will pursue it fully.

After purpose, I look at progress whether the steps I take are actually moving me forward. Passion is good and balance is important, but purpose is what keeps me committed, even on the hard days.

Hearty congratulations to the winners🎉

@betheloji12 if I could advice my younger self it would be , to seize every moment , do not procrastinate because life is short. Sometimes, opportunity if lost never comes back again.

Don't wait until you have all the details to start something new, start and learn as you progress.

@temmylade I've always held this belief that what is meant for me will always come on its own. But life has proved me wrong. I have to go for it to bring it to reality.

@omoomowess01 when I set goals my decision to pursue it has to do with its alignment with my purpose, that is what matters most and that will also fuel my passion towards the realization of it.

@temmylade i use to believe that as long as you didn't sleep with someone husband , if someone sleep with yours. If you pray or curse the person karma will locate the person. But that's a pure lie. Whether you sleep with someone husband or not . Just pray not to marry a community dick cause you will question your life and faith all over again. Life doesn't work the way we imagine it. Cause this sone of this generation of men and women lacks discipline and self control nothing concern karma

@betheloji12

My Answer to Prompt One.

If I could advise my younger self, I'd say don't trust people easily. Being young, naive, and innocent doesn't mean you have to be overly trusting. Your openness, friendliness, and harmless nature are strengths, but not everyone will reciprocate with good intentions.

Don't rely solely on your intelligence; explore your skills, network with people, and take calculated risks. Let the universe do its thing!

MY Answer to Prompt Two

I've come to realize that my earlier notion of success was limited. I used to believe that intellectual intelligence alone was enough to guarantee success. However, over the years, I've learned that successful people aren't just intellectually smart, they're also socially savvy, morally grounded, and versatile. They don't rely on their innate abilities but instead leverage on other skills. This realization has been one of the most life-changing lesson and it's truly enlightening<

@betheloji12 If I could speak to my younger self…
I will tell her to stop worrying so much. Life won’t always go as planned, but that’s okay because it still finds a way to work out. I will tell her to be patient with herself, to understand that growth takes time and mistakes are part of the process.
Most importantly, I will tell her she is stronger than she thinks and one day, she will look back and smile at how far she has come.
@joeboi24 and @happy080 come and join this Real talk

@omoomowess01 When I set goals, what matters most to me is purpose. I have learned that passion comes and goes, and progress can be slow, but purpose keeps me moving. It gives me direction even when I feel tired or unsure. Once I know why I am doing something, it becomes easier to stay focused and patient. For me, purpose is the quiet strength behind every dream I chase. So yes it's the purpose that drives me
