Think your a failure?: see this story




Guy A:
He approaches a girl at the bar. The girl is dismissive. She replies ‘Hi’ but continues to look at her phone. She is polite, but mostly gives monosyllabic one-liners. She is obviously not interested in him.
Guy A is uncomfortable. He knows she is not interested, despite them having a proper conversation. He gives up. He ends the conversation politely and excuses himself.
He goes home feeling really, really dejected and sad. He starts to wonder, “Why am I such a loser? Why is it girls hate me? I am simply doomed to be alone forever.”
Guy B:
He approaches another girl at the bar. This girl, is a complete Snub. She was disrespectful to him. Before he could even open his mouth, she glares at him in that arrogant way and says, “I am not interested you loser. I am way out of your league. Why don’t you go home and watch your TV.” She turns away and joins her friends. From his vantage point, he could see that they were all starting to point and laugh at him.
Guy B goes home feeling super awesome and elated. He thinks to himself, “I’ve never approached a girl like that before! She was hot! Last time, I was always glued to my seat as I stared at my drink. I didn’t dare move an inch! What great progress I’ve made tonight!”
He starts to go through in his head what happened that night with that bitchy girl. He analyzes what he thought went wrong. He promises himself that he’d do better the next time round.
Rejection, a single loss, a piece of regret, a betrayal, a fuck-up, and the scathing words others say about you or even a tragedy are not failures.
Failure only comes when you stop trying.
It’s all about attitude and how you see things.
So get up. Get up.
And just try again.
You’ll get there. 

Relax. However you’ve thought that you’ve failed, it’s never the end, nor is it that bad. Stay chill and be happy.

BOOM: Nigeria’s External Reserves Drops To Lowest In 11 Years

Nigeria’s foreign exchange reserve fell to $25,780,765,483 (25.78 billion) as of August 16, the lowest we have seen since 2005. The drop was down 2.11% from a month ago. The Nations external reserves dropped below $26 billion for the first time on the 5th of August 2016 after it closed at about $25,971,610,949. In fact, the external reserves has dropped by about $480 million dollars in August alone compared to just $100 million in the whole of July. Ironically, the current balance of $25.9 billion is worth about 80% more than what it was in Naira following the depreciation of the naira after it was floated. The CBN has in the past few days ramped up sales of dollars at the interbank in the hope that it will create liquidity in a market that is yawning gape to swallow forex after nearly almost two years of intense rationing by the CBN. The Naira weakened to its lowest ever at the interbank after it closed at about N362.5/$1 in midday trading. The Naira will eventua...

Why Entrepreneurs Should Engage Their Spouses in the Business

When her husband first joined a startup, a woman I’ll call Cindy had saved up a comfortable nest egg for her family. Even with several young children, their financial situation was stable enough that their personal risk in the venture seemed minimal. But a year later, when the seed funding dried out and no substantial revenue was forthcoming, things went downhill for them. Her husband stopped receiving a salary, yet continued working and traveling extensively for the company. Cindy had to care for their children, including two toddlers and two autistic preteens, mostly on her own. She begged her husband to find another job, but he didn’t want to leave a business that he had already invested so much in. She offered to go back to work and have him watch the kids; he refused. Within two years, their financial reserves and their children’s college funds had disappeared entirely. Their home was eventually foreclosed on, and the family had to move in with a relative. Onl...
