The Lion’s Hunt and the Reality of Success in Life Lions are often seen as powerful and dominant, yet their hunting success rate is only 20-30%. That means they fail 70-80% of the time. But do they stop hunting? No. They keep going, learning, and improving their techniques. Life works the same way. Many people expect success to come quickly, but the truth is, failure is part of the journey. Those who succeed are not the ones who never fail—they are the ones who keep going despite failure. 1. Be Selective: Focus on the Right Opportunities Lions don’t waste energy chasing every animal. They pick their targets carefully, increasing their chances of a successful hunt. In life, you can’t chase everything at once. Not every opportunity is worth your time and effort. Focus on what aligns with your strengths, values, and long-term goals. Trying to do too much at once leads to exhaustion and disappointment. Choose your battles wisely. 2. Adapt to Challenges Lions adjust their hunting strategies based on their environment. In open plains, they rely on teamwork. In forests, they use ambush tactics. Life is unpredictable. Challenges will come, and what worked before might not always work again. Those who succeed are flexible and willing to change their approach. Whether in business, relationships, or personal growth, learning to adapt is key to long-term success. 3. Manage Risks and Protect Yourself A lion doesn’t give 100% effort on every hunt—it conserves energy and avoids unnecessary risks. If it gets injured, survival becomes difficult. In life, taking risks is necessary, but reckless risks can lead to setbacks. Whether it's financial decisions, career moves, or personal choices, you must think long-term. Success isn’t about going all-in on one opportunity; it’s about making smart, calculated moves. 4. Embrace Failure as Part of the Process Even after careful planning, lions still fail more often than they succeed. But they don’t stop—they try again. Most people fear failure, but every successful person has failed multiple times. The difference is they didn’t quit. Every failure is a lesson, a stepping stone toward something greater. If you give up after a setback, you lose the chance to win in the long run. 5. Stay Consistent and Keep Moving Forward A lion doesn’t stop hunting because of a failed attempt. It learns, improves, and continues until it succeeds. In life, consistency is key. Success isn’t about one big win—it’s about showing up every day, improving a little at a time, and staying committed to your goals. Even when progress is slow, persistence leads to breakthroughs. Lions don’t let failure define them—they keep going, adapting, and eventually succeed. That’s how life works, too. Be selective—choose your battles wisely. Adapt—embrace change. Take smart risks—but protect yourself. Accept failure—learn and move forward. Stay consistent—success comes to those who don’t give up. Like a lion, stay focused, stay hungry, and never stop chasing your dreams. #SuccessMindset #Growth #NeverGiveUp #StayHungry

THE BOY WHO WALKED ALONE (Pt. 1) As a young boy, I was ambitious, full of dreams, and had grand visions of my future. I never held back when it came to dreaming big. I had vision boards and mental pictures of the life I wanted to live, and they excited me. These dreams filled me with zeal, enthusiasm, and energy, pushing me to launch out after completing my higher education. I never considered getting a job. Truthfully, with the kind of future I envisioned, a job wouldn’t be enough to fund it. I just had to become a CEO, own a company, and do business so I could have both financial and time freedom. So, in 2012, after my NYSC, I took the leap. But to cut a long story short, the next 10 years of my life turned out to be the most depressing, traumatic, and disappointing years I had ever experienced. I failed at EVERYTHING I tried. Within that period, I ventured into seven different businesses—and had NOTHING tangible to show for it. Many times, I woke up wishing I wasn’t alive. I lost hope, and my faith—in myself and in God—was under constant attack. It felt like the world was against me. Where were all the pictures and dreams I had as a child? What happened to the lifestyle I had envisioned? By now, I should have had my own house, a thriving business, and a family. So why was I still squatting—with someone who was also a squatter? I was confused. I had completely lost touch with myself, the world, and everyone around me. I was merely a shadow of the person I used to be. I spent over six of those ten years in deep frustration and despair. Then, in 2020, I met a young man—way younger than me—who was planning his wedding, owned a car and a house, and was earning six figures monthly. He was living the life I had envisioned for myself at his age. With all humility, I approached him and asked questions. Since then, I have worked with him, and though I am not yet where I want to be, I am far from where I used to be. For the first time, I was able to travel out of the country for vacation in 2022. Today, I have my own house, I am married with two kids, and I am doing great things. Most importantly, I have regained my belief in my visions and dreams. Now, I dare to do GREAT things. My belief is back. My faith is back. But what changed? What happened??? Why the drastic transformation in just two years? How did I achieve in three years what I couldn’t achieve in ten? Is having a dream, vision, or ambition all there is to success? I wasn’t lazy—I worked hard during those years—so why did I end up depressed? To be continued…

THE DREAM!!!!
