<p>The caption is not a joke. I'm serious!</p>
<p>For the past four months I've been facing the famous Lagos Traffic almost every work day. Starngely, One of the things I've noticed is that the stillness, chaos and other elements present in traffic stirs something in me. It legit gets me there- I mean mentally oooo! </p><p>I'll probably have to do a proper post on how to maximise the time spent in traffic!</p>
<p>I think one my new hobbies would be spending time in traffic. I know it sounds crazy 🤪 </p><p>A lot of ideas flow through my mind in traffic and I've recently started being more intentional about them. This may resonate more with writers though. I've written 8 articles in traffic. Yes, 8 articles.</p><p>It's a simple hack, the idea comes and I start writing. It doesn't have to be perfect at first. You can as well see it as a draft. The goal is to start something and leave the "I plan to" clime.
Remember ideas are fleeting.
I know you may not always feel the urge to write or your muse may come and go sometimes. In those cases you have to apply my former Branch Managers favorite phrase-"Be Intentional"!.</p>
<p>In the midst of distractions, your goal should not be compromised. </p><p>Finally brethren, traffic is not your enemy. Its just spare time you'd rather have at home!</p>
<p>And yeah, I typed this epistle in traffic!</p>

If you like my insights, you can encourage me by sending a TIP. Thank you!
At the end of each month, we give out cash prizes to 5 people with the best insights in the past month
as well as coupon points to 15 people who didn't make the top 5, but shared high-quality content.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Here are a few other things to know
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate content—use it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio content—high-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover images—if your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.
6
Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.
