The first time I ever woke up to 1M in my account was about 3 years ago in my 300L.
NB: Please I'm not sharing this for anyone to applaud me, but pick the lessons that align with you.
Trust me, I was so overwhelmed with joy and excitement.
I gave myself a target to hit 1M before I clock 22 when I was around 18 years.
As someone who came from a humble background, it was a struggle but yet I love challenges so I took it up without a coach or mentor.
I had no physical business.
I have no rich uncles to run to.
I had no boyfriend or Alhaji for funds.
In fact all through my undergraduate days, I wasn't in any relationship.
Don't even think of selling my body because it's far from that.
I did all manner of businesses and transactions just to hit my target but none of them happened.
I almost doubted myself. What even gave me the impression that it could be achieved?
Then in January, 2023 I decided to change the narrative and stick to the plan. If I perish I perish.
I started by learning diverse skills that could complement each other.
1. I invested actively into changing my mindset about money and wealth creation. I devoured books, I attended seminars. I paid for Mentorships. I learnt by observation as well.
2. My main source of income was monetizing my knowledge. I had knowledge of a good number of things including writing.
I started by hosting masterclasses, preparing courses, writing books, accepting paid speaking engagements, accepting Mentorships etc.
3. I intentionally grew my contact list because my major platform was WhatsApp. I sent a friend request to everyone in every group I was in.
The more people who see what I do, the more money I can make.
4. I invested into understanding how money works. And one of which is law of compound effect.
I understood investment, savings, budgeting, tracking etc just before I started making good money online.
Every 1k was directed to my fixed deposit. It wasn't for merriment or funding a big girl lifestyle. I had to cut down all unnecessary expenses.
5. My mind was fixed to my goal and that was my strong WHY.
I never entertained any form of distraction. Time is money right?
Just after 8 months, I hit my target and before the year rounded up, I made an extra 60% making it more than 1.6M.
6. My fragrance started spreading fast and referrals began to flood in.
People never questioned my expertise or my capability because the reviews spoke for itself.
RESULTS DREW MEN.
That's the bottom line.
Since then, it's been a different story. Sometimes I make 100k to 200k daily. Sometimes more than that, sometimes less.
But growth is progressive.
But here are a few lessons that has lived with me:
1. I got to understand that I could achieve anything I put my mind to. It boosts my self-confidence to achieve more.
2. Whatever that can make me wealthy and live life in my own terms is already in the INSIDE of me, not OUTSIDE.
3. I stopped seeing social media as just a tool to pass out time but a money making machine.
Money dey social media for real.
4. My favourite part of the bible became
"I can do ALL things(not somethings) through Christ who strengthens me."
I have the mind of Christ and whatever I put my mind into flourishes.
5. I learnt that I'm never limited by my background or circumstances only if I allow it. I had my first plot of land at 22.
6. I learnt that nobody is coming to save me. I learnt that if I depend on external push or motivation, I won't go far.
My major motivation should come from within.
