DO YOU WANT TO BE RICH LIKE DANGOTE?
<p>After scrolling aimlessly on Tiktok without being conscious of the sound of my clock- TickTock</p><p><br></p><p>Those words in the headline keeps playing in my head</p><p><br></p><p>I would have actually typed it out in the language the artiste used to sing it.</p><p>But, let's leave it that way.</p><p><em>(Nigerian Hippop lovers can relate, I can't actually because I am not a fan)</em></p><p><br></p><p>But, is this really how wealth comes?</p><p>(<em>Cries in low account balance)</em></p><p><em><br></em></p><p>To be honest, I know what to do, but,&nbsp; why am I not doing it?</p><p>I am afraid to say this, I am not ready!!</p><p>I know I am not the only one that feels this way.</p><p><br></p><p>Or am I?</p><p>Please don't break my heart, say YES</p><p><br></p><p>The real deal isn't about becoming rich like Dangote; Can I sustain that wealth? Can I keep it growing?</p><p>Wealth isn't just about having money- it's about making an impact and being limitless in your approach.</p><p>Observing Dangote, I realise, He didn't just chase money; he built industries that people needed.</p><p><br></p><p>Then it dawn on me, Building wealth that last comes from solving problems and creating value.</p><p><br></p><p><em style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">What solutions do you/I want to offer to the world?</em></p><p><em><br></em></p><p>Honestly, I don't want to be like Dangote&nbsp;</p><p>I want to be TOLUWANIMI&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Let's do this analogy - who is Dangote without all the industries and assets?</p><p>He is just an ordinary man, you might not even hear about till He dies.</p><p><br></p><p>So, I too will do things differently and uniquely position my solutions to the world and keep creating values.</p><p><br></p><p><em>It's not bad if people wants to be like me, it's cool</em></p><p><em><br></em></p><p>Wealth creation is a must!</p><p><em><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">&nbsp;(Whispers) I am even planning to get a car this year, d</span><span style="background-color: transparent;">on't tell anyone that I told you o.</span></em></p>
