As part of his 40th birthday celebration,he was supposed to launch his biography which has been titled “A Very Good Bad Guy”. The book should have hit shelves on September 18th but has been postponed till the 20th of October.
The launch of the book will be held at Terra Kulture to be hosted by comedians Tee A and Ali baba. The author, Ayeni Adekunle Samuel revealed in a recent interview that the name of the biography, ‘A Very Good Bad guy: The Story Of Innocent 2Face Idibia’ ,was chosen by Sound Sultan.

So I’ve had this little problem which I finally got sorted out today.
For a while it really bothered me so much, to the extent I got nervous thinking about it plus I us to be the type of person that wants everything to be done a particular way, at a particular time and when it doesn’t happen that way, I stress and worry about it “ we all have out short comings”

I would always bug my sister about several tiny issues I have and she says the same thing over and over to me.” You worry too much“. Lol . Whenever she says it, i always reply saying, if I don’t take care of things for myself who would ? But then we had a conversation today that put a whole lot of things in perspective for me .
I had to reflect on my life , several times I worry and try to make things work my own way but they end up taking a differnt turn than expected which eventually results into something way better. It made me realize three things

1. Trust God
2. Let Go and let God {I really mean this}
3. With God there’s no loss. It’s either a lesson or blessing.
 So regardless of what it is you’re going through, worrying won’t change nothing, thinking about it all day won’t change it either so then why stress yourself up. How about you trust an unknown future to a known God?

 For once , trust God with all your heart {you know the type that you won’t let doubt or worry anywhere close to you? I mean you don’t go to bed thinking will I wake up tomorrow? Because you trust God and you believe you will … So Yea that type}  and believe you me darling!!! He will surprise you because he definitely has done so much for me that I’ve lost count . So all I’m  asking you sweetheart is! Give him a chance to sweep you off your feet!!! So I’m asking you again… Do you know that whatever you’ve been through, you’re going through or you’re yet to face … GREATER IS HE?

Why do you want to work as a model?
I have a thing for fashion and i have always wanted to do some modelling. and when i have reached the pinnacle i plan to reach in modeling i want to branch out and become a designer. I model for my own designs for a start.

Tell us about your education ? Have you attended fashion modeling courses?
I am a graduate of covenant university. Studied accounting. I haven't attended a fashion modelling school.

What are your goals as a model?
My goals , to become a renowned model and work with big names and then with determination and hardwork I will progress and reach the top.

How do you communicate with people ? are you patient ? 
I communicate freely with people although am kinda shy. I am a patient person. I am very friendly. Am very open.

Do you eat nutritiously ? how often do you exercise?
I eat nutritiously and I eat a lot. I do exercise seldomly. I go to the gym not very often tho.

Are you registered to any modeling agency?
I am not registered to any modelling agency

Do you have any limitations? Would you model any kind of clothing at all, pants and all?
Yeah I can model any kind of clothing.

State your availability: would  you travel? Work full-time, part-time? Any hours?
Yeah I would travel...buh on a part time basis

These days we have more free time than ever. We get comfortable in our lives and spend our evenings watching TV shows and live for the weekends. People are always looking for ways to kill time. But why? Time is your most precious asset.

What’s your purpose?

Everyone on this planet has a purpose—your job is to find out what that is. Some people are destined to be great mothers or fathers. Some people are destined to be artists. You do not have to be a world leader to make an impact on people’s lives. As a voluntary worker in a third-world country, you will help more people than any individual who sits at home, playing video games.
You can still give meaning to playing video games, as long as you are entertaining the world with your videos on YouTube, for example. It also proves to be a good source of making money as well.
The point is that everyone gives a different meaning to his or her life. Frankl says that one way to discover our personal meaning in life is by creating a “life’s work”.
You can give your life meaning by focusing on a goal. Many people think of names such as Steve Jobs, Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, or Stephen Hawking when it comes to life’s work. It is a good thing to look up to these people for inspiration. However, most people see their own life’s work and say, “I am not Steve Jobs or anything.”
When it comes to finding your purpose, some people argue that you first need a purpose to make the right decisions in life. That does not have to be true—how we act towards finding our meaning is more important than having a meaning. It is impossible to find a general meaning of life, for the purpose of your life depends on your decisions.

“Those who have a ‘why’ to live, can bear with almost any ‘how.’“ – Viktor E. Frankl

A simple exercise to discover your purpose

Remember: finding your purpose does not come to you within a day. It takes time to think and understand the concept first. But by answering the following question for yourself, you can make it a lot easier to find your purpose:
Imagine yourself living in a world where you do not need money to survive. What is the one thing that you love to do? How would you spend your days? Taking away the restriction of money makes it easier to think about what you actually love to do. People often take jobs just because they need the money. You can make money in multiple ways, so do not worry about money when answering this question. Be honest to yourself, and then worry about how to make money off the thing you love to do 365 days a year.
Alternatively, you can ask yourself, “what do others say that I am good at?” We often have skills and talents, that we do not see, hidden inside of us. However, other people might recognize particular skills and talents you have. This can be a good way of finding out your strengths so you can develop them. Be careful, however, you do not want to do something just because other people say you are good at it. It should be something that you love to do as well.

So why do you exist? If you do not know, that is great, start giving meaning to finding your purpose. If you do know why you are here, that is also great, spend every waking minute on your life’s work.

Its unfortunate how many young, ambitious individuals who aspire to own their own business let their age stop them from making it happen. If someone tells you that you’re too young to start a business, your first mistake would be believing them.

There are countless success stories of young entrepreneurs from all over the world, many who have become millionaires, even billionaires before their 30th birthday.
Don’t make the mistake of waiting too long to start your own business. If you’re fresh out of college – or maybe you’re still in college – now is as good a time as any to start your first business.

Here are 7 reasons why you should start a business in your twenties:

1. Your personal expenses are likely very low

If you’re still living with your parents, you’re probably not paying rent every month. Even if you’ve already moved out, you’re probably renting a small apartment and maybe even splitting the rent with a roommate or two. You might have a car, but it’s probably not an expensive one. Whatever the case is, you’re definitely not spending as much on your monthly expenses as someone who is supporting a family, paying off a mortgage, saving for retirement, etc.
Having minimal personal expenses is a major advantage as a startup entrepreneur. It means you can take less money out of your business to support your lifestyle, and keep that money in your business to fund its growth.

2. Technology is your friend

You grew up with technology. It’s familiar to you. You use all kinds of different devices on a daily basis and when something new comes out, you’re all over it. New technology excites you, and learning to use a new program or app comes naturally to you. Technology doesn’t scare you like it does some of the veterans in business today who are reluctantly beginning to utilize it.
More importantly, the technology that is available today enables you to achieve so much more for your business for incredibly low costs. Websites can be set up for under $100. Calls can be made worldwide for free. Emails can be checked from a phone. You can do things today that you simply could not have done 10 years ago without spending thousands of dollars, if at all.

3. If you’re in college or university, you have access to resources other entrepreneurs don’t

If you’re a student with an idea for a business, now is the time to vocalize it. There are numerous organizations that love to support students, financially and otherwise. You have access to mentors, infrastructure, resources, and funding that is exclusive to students. You would be wise to take advantage of this. Some of your classmates might be suitable business partners, and some of your instructors might be suitable mentors.

4. You’re not jaded by experience

Experience is not always an advantage in business. Older, more experienced individuals often have to unlearn the ways of doing things that simply don’t work in today’s marketplace. You don’t have that problem. You have not yet accumulated a bunch of beliefs or habits that could work against you. You bring a fresh perspective to your endeavors. You have a degree of naiveté that may actually work in your favor. You believe you can succeed, because you have no evidence to believe otherwise.

5. You have fewer personal commitments

Unlike some of the individuals you may end up competing against, you have few personal commitments. Especially if you’re in your early twenties, you probably aren’t married and you probably don’t have kids yet either. This means you have more time to devote to your business.
It’s much easier to give up a night of partying or watching a game than it is to give up time with your family. Give up the things that don’t matter much anyway now, and devote every possible hour to building your business. If you do it right, one day your business will reward you with an abundance of time and money to spend on the things that are most important to you, like travelling or spending time with your spouse or children.
  

6. Finding talent has never been easier or more inexpensive

What you lack in experience you can make up for in team building. The world is your talent pool, and the cost of hiring people is extremely competitive. Thanks to the internet, you can find highly skilled individuals from various countries throughout the world. You can hire them on a temporary basis for specific projects or permanently for specific roles.
If you haven’t already, you’d be wise to check out websites such as Upwork to find the talent you need for your next project. Fiverr is another excellent resource offering thousands of different services at a cost of $5 per gig.

7. Time is on your side

They say it takes 10 years to become an overnight success. This is disputable of course, and there are many examples of individuals who have built incredibly successful businesses in less time. But the point is this: behind every success story is a specific process, a series of events that led to that success. This process cannot be avoided. You must go through it. There is no shortcut.

The countdown to your eventual success as an entrepreneur begins the day you get started. Many entrepreneurs fail several times before they finally succeed. Doesn’t it make sense to get those failures over and done with while you’re in your twenties instead of in your thirties, forties, or even fifties? Take action now. The sooner you take action, the sooner you will reap the rewards.
