THE 20 LIFE LESSONS CONTINUATION
• NEVER STOP LEARNING: My father told me, "if you want to keep living, then keep learning". Life itself is a school we can only graduate from when we are all dead, so we keep learning in order to keep living. People who fail to learn always learn to fail. The basic logic of life is we keep learning both from our experiences and from others. We learn to stay alive, we learn to live, we learn inorder to be informed, remember, whoever is not informed, is always deformed at the end.

A man who is not not humble enough to learn, will be humbled by the outcome of his negligence, nature can't be cheated.
• LIMIT YOUR EXPECTATIONS ON MEN:He told me to limit my expectations on men, I was so curious and wanted to know more, he told me that men are bound to disappoint, that is the nature man. Having much hope on any man is one of the worst thing to ever do as a person. If you so put your hope on any man regardless of who the person is, you will be blinded towards the natural flaws of men. This means if you are disappointed tomorrow because you were on others for one thing or the other, you will keep hating yourself for not standing up for yourself.
• DO NOT ENVY THE SUCCESS OF ANOTHER MAN: Sometimes, we envy others because they are doing well than us, this is one of the top secret some people will grind and bustle without seeing results. When your friends are making it, be inspired by their success, be more happy for them so your own day will come. Being envious of other's success will make you feel less of a person meanwhile your mind will be deceiving you that if given the opportunity, you would've done much better. Instead of getting envious, work more on your craft and look for means to also place yourself on the map.
• KNOW YOUR WORTH: He also added that knowing your own worth will give you the confidence to walk out of toxicity. Knowing ones worth places you on a pole of value that you can't be pulled down by anyone unless you wish to do so. Also, your worth as a person is determined on how you see yourself, when you start picturing yourself as a king/queen and start treating yourself as one, others will also treat you as one. Minds attract likes, so you should be able to decipher pride from knowing self-worth. Knowing your worth will give you this sense of satisfaction that you are not a commodity to be bought, your goals can't be exchange just for some tokens, whe. You are aware of all these (self-awareness), you will be able to attract much respect to your personality.
• STAY HUMBLE: Remember, in all you do, stay humble, no matter how much of a fortune you have acquired, stay humble, being humble does not equals to stupidity, it gives you the apex understanding of humanity. When you are humble, your subconscious will always remind you of how truthful you are to yourself. Being humble places you above pride and arrogance, it gives you this understanding that nothing last forever, the CEO position you are occupying today, someone else had already occupied there and someone else will take it over from you, the fast cars you are driving today, someone else is already getting tired of it, the penthouse you are living today, someone else had already built and dumped it. Whatever happens in life is just for a flash of days, and soon you will go quite alone six feet below alone where you will no longer eat on golden plates and drive fast cars. Death fears no one when it comes knocking, both the rich and poor are humbled by death, so stay humble and impact lives as much as you can, because that is what you will be remembered for ages to come when you are long gone.
With this, we have come to the end of part 2 of this topic, I hope this blesses your day. I will as well be coming up with part 3, till we exhaust the 20 lessons. Stay inspired, I love you guys.
