We’re all set for The EXCLUSIVE BUSINESS BREAKFAST MEETING cordially hosted by Rev. Edwin Biayeibo of House On The Rock Church, Enugu.

It’s free to attend but you’ll need to register at https://hotrenugu.org/johnobidi

Due to its exclusivity, I’m not certain it will be live-streamed, but I will update you here with relevant links if otherwise.

I’ll also be speaking/teaching/preaching/ministering the very next day (Sunday) as well.

Sunday services are always streamed, so at least there’s that.

Consequently, Night School will not hold this weekend.

I know I’m pretty much Superman, but thou shalt not out the Lord your God to test.

Happy weekend 😊

— J.O.

PS: My instagram DMs are open, only to those who do not intend to stress me.

The feedback from House on The Rock Enugu has been exceptional.

Thanks for joining us in-person and online this past weekend.

I look forward to doing and sharing more through this platform, Night School and others.

Have a great week ahead.

When you are this close 🤏🏼 to figuring it out, ‘the system’ will send you a diversion - a phone call, social media update, maybe an unsolicited knock on your door.

It’s not random.

The system profits off of a critical mass of people remaining disconnected from their true selves, living perpetually in fight or flight mode, never reserving sufficient mental energy for catching synchronicities.

It will keep you too busy to think.

But you absolutely must think, and read, and learn, and grow.

The road to destruction is broad. I must admit that ‘destruction’ does seem a tad bit dramatic.

More like the road to more emptiness, chasing meaningless adulation/awards so you have a brief feeling of being special, constant fear of loss, etc.

Yeah, the road to all that… is broad.

The game of life is out here catfishing everyone else.

But the way to life… life on your own terms… the one that endures and really feels like life… one without fear of existential threats… no debt, chasing nothing but attracting everything…

Yeah, the road to that particular life, is narrow.

Few will find the narrow road because it won’t be advertised.

Pause and think.

Study, journal, course correct.

Improve. Find others doing the same.

There is no other way.

Knowledge makes a man unfit to be a slave.

And one more thing…

When you find your oasis, your paradise, your heaven, your little village by the sea…

Shut up about it.

The masses will destroy what they cannot possess.

Shut up and take in that suntan.

You’d have earned it.

Financial anxiety and FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) on life can cause you to chase people who are in reality going through exactly what you’re going through, or worse.

It’s the status equivalent of make up filters and fake lashes that happens in most big cities of the world as a survival strategy.

Everyone is catfishing everyone with the illusion of having the secret sauce knowing damn well they’re just as lost and empty.

Sit your anxious ass at home and be faithful to your purpose.

Commit to executing on the same boring plan that gets you closer to your goals.

Read, plan, execute.

And oh, watch John Obidi on Night School.

Can you at least manage that?

Unfortunately, network conditions after the rains make it impossible to live stream anything currently.

Today is out of it as well. Let’s make it work for Tuesday.

Do you realize that one of the reasons most young people struggle is FREEDOM?

You don’t realize how much simpler life was when your ‘authoritarian’ parents dictated whom to befriend and what to study.

Without those strict rules, you befriended any and everyone, having to learn from scratch, your own rules for who’s safe and who’s dangerous.

It’s the same with career and lifestyle design.

Problem with learning everything from your own mistakes is that each lesson takes time, a lot of time, plus wear and tear.

Some of you have 100 equally clueless friends/followers cheering “You go girl!”

Not a single wise person in your corner to say, “Don’t post that”, “Don’t be seen wearing that”, “This career is a dead end, pick something else”

You’re losing aura points in ways you don’t recognize.

The spirit of the age is patient - waiting to feed on your unhappiness after you might’ve prematurely eliminated your options with what you think freedom is.

What will you do about it?

“I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times” – Bruce Lee

Thought for the day: What’s your one kick?

It better not be something weak that cannot produce bastard money.

A kick that can’t make you rich is merely a tickle.

Learn a better, stronger, wealthier kick… and practise that one kick 10,000 times.

Got it?

So I ask again.

What’s your one kick?

Most humans never learn from mistakes - that of others or their own.

I hope you’re different though.

I hope you now know that once there’s a popular movement promising wealth, it is most likely a diversion.

Not that there’s no money in NFTs, but once the ads have begun with all the podcasters talking about it, the real opportunity is gone.

The real whales have taken their positions, waiting for the masses to jump on the train so they can exit.

Same with forex, crypto, real estate, etc.

Nothing will pay you more than the ability to:
- spot opportunities before they’re popular
- ⁠take calculated risks to cash in on them
- ⁠keep your mouth shut to protect your edge
- ⁠know when the ride is over and take your money out

There is no course for this one, but it is the way to life.

The old David and Goliath story has a deep lesson that most readers miss - self knowledge.

When it comes to success, there are general principles that we arrive at by studying what works for the general population.

However, some people are anomalies. Actually, everyone is, at something.

David was a freak of nature to have mastered the slingshot at his age.

And he knew to lean on that eccentricity when it mattered.

When he was offered what would work according to conventional wisdom (a full soldier’s armor), he declined that in favor of his winning formula.

What is your own winning formula that makes you an exception to the rule?

Do you know yourself well enough?

Indeed, there are no shortcuts in life, *but there are faster vehicles.*

[TONIGHT] Emergency Session!

So as you might know, I just got into Lagos for “The BoyCode Conference”, but that’s not why I’m sending this.

Info on the BoyCode Conference is on my Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/p/DKPvdv_o1Wz/

The real reason I’m sending this is to invite you an unscripted, unscheduled Night School session.

It’s not even Night School like that. Just informal gist about a topic that weighed heavy on my heart on the flight here.

*Leveling Up, Getting Ahead.*

What do these terms really mean? Like… PRACTICALLY.

What’s the plan?

Unless you won the genetic lottery to have been born into a system where KINGSHIP was the norm and lowest expectation, the world will capitalize on your innocence as present you a *fugazi*.

That’s slang for ‘fake’ or ‘replica’ especially relating to watches, jewelry and similar merchandise.

And the world sells it so well - slavery cloaked as progress.

If you’re religious, y’all may have called it “dominion”.

But your current reality and future trajectory beg to differ.

This thing won’t come to you. You will have to go to it and TAKE IT.

But upon all our enthusiasm, Ogbeni Solomon cautions, “The toil of a fool wearies him out, for he knows not how to enter the city”

I’d like to engage you in this conversational session on what “Leveling Up” looks like and what you can do to force yourself into that vibration.

Things like how you look, where you live and how to engineer your income goals accordingly.

Time: 9pm TONIGHT

Access URL will be dropped here later this evening. No need to register.

Talk soon,
— J.O.
