To me, life is arranged in a way that, even though we've never lived on Earth before, we can still survive and succeed with motivation from others.
Every day, you'll meet people who inspire you with their values and standards. These people form my circle of friends. I have more female friends than male ones.
I haven't been lucky enough to have male friends even before i got married, though I wouldn't say it's because I'm married.
I would be talking about people that has been a source of inspiration to me. Anytime I am out I am always with them.
One of my friends is Shola.
She has given me a lot of encouragement. I met her while seeking a solution for an issue I was facing.
I had ventured into the agriculture business, raising broilers for income. One day, about 20% of my birds died . On my way to complain to the place where I bought the bird's medication, I was discussing the problem with a friend in a carb. That's when Shola provided me with the perfect solution.
When I tried her suggestion, it worked, and my birds stopped dying. Since then, we've become good friends. She's like a motivator to me. I was impressed and inspired to see a young woman like her investing in the agricultural business. She even added me to an online forum for broiler farmers, which has been incredibly helpful.
There's nothing more inspiring than someone who motivates you to succeed in business, and Shola does this without expecting anything in return. She's not only a friend but also a valuable business partner.
Rukie
Rukie is another inspiring friend of mine. We both graduated from the University of Uyo in Akwa Ibom State, though she was a year ahead of me.
Rukie played a crucial role in helping me start my agricultural business. She provided me with the necessary advice and support, making the journey much smoother.
She also offers spiritual counseling. Back in school, I realized she had a gift for speaking and found her way to the word of God. Since then, she has been impactful to me and my family. I shouldn't share too much personal detail, but to illustrate how supportive she's been, I'll mention that when I had
When I had a little disagreement with my husband, I ran to her for counseling, and today, I am still doing well with him.
In life, God can strategically place people who will become a source of motivation and inspiration to you when you are down. Shola has been helpful to me in many ways.
My Team
My team is another source of motivation. They are inspiring, with each person being an entrepreneur.
P.S. A friendly reminder: surround yourself with motivated people. Having a team of business partners can give you the inspiration you need to stay resilient in this economy.
