Good day to members of this wonderful community.
From the caption of my post, you're probably wondering what I mean.
The title is in pidgin-english, it simply means "You're Responsible for yourself"
Yes, the title is indeed thought provoking, so follow me as I explain...
I remember once I was in a taxi 🚕, stuck in traffic around mobile Nkwen neighborhood, and there were 2 guys brutally fighting outside. No one attempted to separate them. It bothered some of the passengers and I so much, but the driver's simple reply was: "NOBODY DEY FOR YOU."
Wow, those words hit me hard, and though the driver was referring to the fight outside, I was already thinking about a lot of other things. He was right.
Remember that time you got into a fight in school? What did your mates do?
They probably didn't bother separating you, they cheered you on, even as you got beat and faced the disciplinary council.
This is just one of the countless scenarios which prove the point that you and you alone is responsible for your life. Sure, we have friends, colleagues and acquaintances which we've grown to love and trust, but at the end of the day people lookout for themselves.
We've all heard tales of brothers betraying each other, parents disowning children, blackmail, amongst others.
How successful or miserable your life becomes depends on you. You alone will face the consequences of your actions, choices and decisions. We all need to wake up to responsibility.
You can party like crazy with friends today, but when life gets tough, and you don't end up succeeding, you'll be blamed, not your friends.
To grow, you can begin:
• Investing in Personal Development
• Investing for the future
• Learning a high income skill
• Getting closer to God
Intentionality is key, start looking out for yourself today so that you won't regret in future.
Ps: I could write Extensively on this issue, but I believe that "A word to a wise is sufficient."
Remember that NOBODY DEY FOR YOU!!!
Thanks for reading....

You speak the truth. Honey bees will only go to a plant with flowers. Once the plant doesn't blossom, they flee. That's same as some humans.Thanks for sharing

Exactly. We as individuals will be blamed for our failures, people will come closer if they can benefit from us, so it's up to us to wise up.
