🥱Sometimes I think about the blessings of being MULTIDIMENSIONAL... The versatility. The resourcefulness. The genius look that people give you. The feel of specialty.

But beyond these, what about the other side of things? The role conflict. The drag and pull of responsibilities. The ache of 10 other things you could do but are not getting done. Then the pain of always creating a scale of preference. The agony of going one way, knowing it's like Robert Frost's "Road Not Taken". And finally, the admittance of your limitations, the fact that you wear a fleshly tent constrained by 24hours like every other mortal head.

Hmmm... what do you think about this? DROP A COMMENT.

Outliers go all out. That's why they are ahead. They take high risks when necessary.

That your "I won't kill myself" attitude may keep you alive, but it's only to keep you on the same spot.

It may take you another 5 years before you realise that what you thought was a disadvantage, was actually a blessing in disguise. That setback might be an answer to your ultimate prayer. Don't take it to heart.
See, I just failed in an attempt at success, and I'm not shy about it. Let's get encouraged together. Moving on to BETTER DAYS because Amazing Grace is at work!👌🏾

🤭When I saw "Congratulations!" in the subject line, I was filled with joy— that joy that rumbles within you after having applied for similar opportunities before without success. To think I was low on energy when I applied just one day to the deadline.

And here we are: Babjossy, the YPB Fellow!

But beyond being selected from 4,000+ applicants, the real privilege is being in rooms where greatness is in plain sight.

Day One was nothing short of excellence. Owen Omogiafo (President/Group CEO, Transcorp) gave an explosive leadership talk. Dr. Seun Fakorede (Ex-Commissioner, Oyo State) broke down what it meant to be a Responsible Citizen. Mrs. Toyin Poju-Oyemade set the tone beautifully for the bootcamp.

And in the breakout sessions, Moromoluwatiketike Abolaji enlightened us on our creative superpower while the renowned Daniel Etim Effiong made the conversation on Storytelling both practical and memorable.

Day Two is live, and I'm here for every insight.

I'm here as myself () and as a rep for FreeFlow Creative Hub () — your 3-in-1 creative solution across BRANDING, PUBLISHING, and ACADEMY.
