Who inspires you to keep going on?...Before I became a Journalist,i already knew that was wanted i wanted to do...I was inspired by the MEE (May Ellen Ezekiel)
When i started the writing Journey,I visited The Sun Newspapers and Femi Adesina became my inspiration,i wanted to write like him,be like him....So with thoughts of MEE,my eyes on Mr Adesina and experience from my former Boss Kunle Bakare,I set out on the Journey to gather firewood...lol
Thanks stellz
ReplyDeleteNice
DeleteFor me my sole source of inspiration is my love for making my mom happy. That woman has tried so hard, worked her butt off and all so she's my inspiration. I'm presently working in a corporate environment, some days I hate my job but when I think of the numerous jobless people out there and also remember God's goodness in my life, I'm full of appreciation and humility but I have my eyes set on doing a business and not the usual buying and selling that almost everyone is into but Something different and so unique! My biggest challenge is capital but I have handed it over to God right now all I'm doing is perfect my plan and be ready so once the capital comes I will start up running!

My mother is my biggest inspiration!!
DeleteLove what you do and do what you love.
ReplyDeleteIf what you do isn't your "dream job' then find a way to do something that would make you enjoy the job.
For those who work in the corporate world you can still pursue your dreams while you work.
What I am doing presently was something I ran away from for years but now I am loving it because everyday I find something to incorporate into my work that makes me happy.
I also do other things I love on the side.
Also remember to choose a mentor and research the persons success. Continue to improve yourself, don't see one place as your last bus stop.
Strive to be better and you will succeed.
Lastly don't envy people.
There is no one like you, there is only one you. Be different!
I so love this. Research the person success is so true. Thanks sis for the eye opener.
DeleteI will gets to my destination and I will fulfill my destiny IJN
ReplyDeleteAMEN.
PEACE.
My mother is my inspiration. I grew up admiring her. I want to be like my mom. She is so real, industrious and strong. She is the best mother in the world.
ReplyDeleteMy mum is my inspiration. Supportive, never ever complains, content, steadfast in prayers, funny as hell, smart, industrous and gentle.
DeleteOne quote inspired me many years ago. A contestant on a pageant show said it, and it has remained with me for over 15years. "Happy are those who dream dreams and are willing to pay the price to make them come true". I paid the price, my dreams are coming true. Thankful.
DeleteIn general, my mum and elder sister.
DeleteI want to be as strong, supportive, industrious and hardworking as them.
Career wise, my dad.
I dey come make I finish dis food.
ReplyDeleteOne creates oneself, so true. I don't need a Pity party or pat on the back. My zeal surprises me sometimes, I guess is something inside of me burning for greatness and great deeds. Am unstoppable in Jesus name.

Well as for me, my parents inspired me most especially my dad honourable ethelbert. when i got married. I felt like i have gotten everything that i wanted and i can now relax and enjoy life but my parents called me on phone and said, Ada my daughter, if you don't go back and continue pursuing ur dreams, you will regret it in future. Ur certificate is not enough. Go and learn new things and add to ur knowledge since u re lucky to have a supportive man. I went back to school, i learnt about blogging, fb ads, black hat, importatuon and selling of bags via jumia online store at the comfort of my home binary and the rest of them through my mentor mostly jide ogunsanya, victor, larry success and so many people. Thats how i was able to know that u can make millions online if u re willing to invest and learn new things with determination plus making research. I could remember then am always on system 247 that i later developed eye problem and was given glasses at niger optical. Always watching youtube videos on how to suceed. I really thank God atleast am enjoying it now. When u have a supportive partner plus God things will be easy whether married or single.
ReplyDeleteCan you tutor me. I have the basic tools but I need to know how to go about it
DeleteMillions ko,Billions ni. Liar!
DeleteI went thru one yesterdays post where some anonymous said am telling lies about online business. LMAoo. Ok dear anonymous let me explain to u what i mean by dollar is affecting one of my online biz. Example when i run fb ads on fb using my Zenith bank master card, they charge me 304 per dollar but last mth 23rd when google paid. diamond bank converted it for me at the rate of 199/200. Which is pure cheating but when u do online transaction, they charge 304/305. The people enjoying it are those that has dormiciary acct reason being that they can withdraw in dollars then go to aboki and change. They re the ones enjoying the high price of dollar. But i wasnt able to do that cos i have problem with my bvn cos i mistakenly used wrong date of birth.
DeleteI dnt need anyone to believe me, i am just creating awareness online, if u have data to browse blogs every minute to drop comments, u can equally use that data to research online and do meaning ful things with ur life and be self employed I have no reasons what so ever to tell lies. If u doubt me ask any blogger what i said.
If you are good at writing articles, you can register at some sites online like Iwriter, or join fiverr where u will be delivering order for people and be making money.
If u re good in business, get an online shop at jumia, attend their meetings so that they will explain how everything works, get goods and when u must have agreed with their terms and conditions and signed the necessary documents, they will give u an online store where u will be selling ur stufs. When anybody orders for ur stuff, u will give it to their delivery man who will deliver to the person at the end, jumia will take their own percentage while u take ur own.
Inatead of doubting me, ask questions, make inquiry thats why u have Google.
Up next is binary and how fiverr works. Stay tuned.
Ada nnem thanks for sharing.
Delete@ The Sexiest mother of this blog, please I am interested in this online business.... i'm good at writing articles and I will be glad if you'll put me through on how to make money with it...Thanks

ReplyDeleteMy mom is my greatest inspiration. Her tenacity, determination ... #therealMVP
ReplyDeleteMy mother ofcourse.
DeleteGrowing up I was inspired by so many people..
ReplyDeleteMy late dad was my biggest inspiration.he was very brilliant,a genius..
He was a very good writer, too bad he never got around to publishing any.
He loved to read..he had one of the most impressive library I have ever seen till date.
So yes..I always wanted to be like him.
Funny enough, my dad wanted me to play basketball.
He loved the sport..but he never got around to playing professionally,so he wanted me to live his dream.(Story for another day)
Another person that inspired me was the late gani fawehinmi.he was the reason why I wanted to study law..
But then things changed..I diverted from law.
I've also been inspired by wole soyinka, chinua achebe, kayode ajala, oprah winfery, maya angelou, stella dimoko, and oh yes, and former governor of ogun state, segun osoba..who knew he was a good writer? I've read his works.
And then, in the culinary world, I'm inspired by my mom, then there's martha steward, gordon ramsey, jamie oliva, ina, paula, and good 'ol buddy velaso.
Lemme stop here for now.
Aaaawww
DeleteYour Daddy shoulda met mine.chai onwu.
My dad had so many books...inspirational,documentaries,Romance,Crime etc.
During our James Hadley Chase discussions,if you are not someone that enjoys reading,you would be forced to borrow one from our house because na floating thinzz.
Never saw someone that had so much zeal to read and write like him,so intelligent too.
This is someone that dropped out of school so his siblings could go to school.
He went back to school against all odds.
I "borrowed" a lot of his books,even some not too appropriate ones at my tender age,i had a key.LOL
So I moved to my own home and got me a Shelf too...filled with awesome books,properly arranged ooh.
Pains me that my reading culture has reduced greatly.
You are a confused somborri. Pick a struggle.
DeleteAre you serious? @ iphie..wow! Just wow! That's good to know.nothing beats the feeling of reading a good book.books are fun!
DeleteJesus Christ inspires me.
ReplyDeleteMy parents.
Thats all.
XOXO MYSTERY
Is it weird to say i'm inspired by my boo's sister? The lady is a walking success story, started from the bottom beauty and brains. She's freaking rich and a workaholic in the corporate world. Even boo doesnt like it wen I gush abt her hahaha. I cant help it. shes amazing.
ReplyDeleteSo b4 u had a boo,u were walking about visionlessly and without inspiration? Its a harmless question tho
DeleteDirty mama wonder, have u cooked for ur family today? Now lemme break it down for ur poverty stricken brain. If ur sister inlaw hates ur guts, its not my problem. But I love this woman, shes a mother, wife and a success story. She encourages me and has taken me like her own daughter. Yes, I am very young and she is way older dan me. So me looking up to her is no crime. Pls go and drown ur bitter poor soul somewhere ehn.. oloshi. I see pple calling oprah and SDK.. have dey even met her? My boos sister has been encouraging me not only to be a good human but a successful wife as well and u r here creeping. oloriburuku!

ReplyDeleteHmmmmm!!I talked about how I used my fee to sponsor my ex abroad and how he told me I wasn't his level anymore..yes I broke down and wept but I never forgot that word'you are not my level anymore'this same word made me who,what and the woman I have become..yess!!it gave me more vibe to be more than his level,that word pushes me even in my weakest point,gave me the strength to do More than what he expected..he looked down on me but I made him realize God didn't and now I can boldly say I am not where I wanna be yet but I am not where I use to be..the last time he saw me he said Oluwagbemisola can you forgive me for that word I said back then,then I toldd him that word was exactly what I needed back then to inspire me..and am glad he said that..so were cool
ReplyDeleteIts been 6 years he has been deported and back to square one,but I wasn't the same girl he left..he wasn't my level anymore.. When you channel ya energy on something negative someone said you can't be,you will be amazed at the positive outcome you get cos you wanna prove them wrong..am glad I did
Awwww. I so love u now blunt ijebu chic
DeleteWow! I'm so loving this your comment. He's a faithful God indeed. God actually looked @ your naivety and uplifted you.

ReplyDeleteThis is so me. My past inspires me. My late mom, dad and in-laws still speaks well of her till date. You can imagine her humble @, even after her death, people still praise her.
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteMy parents
ReplyDeleteMy husband inspired me.I was a victim of abuse from a step-mum,She left me uncared for after my dads death. My husband saw me inside traffic selling bread,he sent me to school,brushed me up completely. He was always there to talk to me like a brother,like a father. He took me abroad,got me my papers,work two jobs to be able to satisfy me.Who else after God do I say inspired me.
ReplyDeleteWao! May God continue to bless his him. Am torched
DeleteAwww
DeleteHe's a good man.
God bless him
God bless him.
DeleteMay God bless him all the days of his life. May he live long and prosper. I love love.
DeleteUr husband is one in a million,that's wat I call full packaged husband! Chai!God bless him.
DeleteThe evil that a woman does, lives with/after her! Search yourself. You cheated/deceived somebody who trusted you in the past & there is a CURSE on you! Search your heart, go and beg for forgiveness or it shall NEVER be well with YOU! I am very BITTER!
DeleteMy mum inspires me a lot till date....She wants us to have what she never had and would have loved to have. She doesn't want us to go through the harsh times she went through also. that woman hennn! God bless me on time to keep surprising her abeg.
ReplyDeleteMy elder bro inspires me too....God bless him.
JESUS! Inspires me above all.
I have my source of inspiration from many persons. On the aspect of marriage, I am inspired by my foster mom. Career wise, Month Audu does the inspires too. Late pastor Bimbo was inspired me as well. On finance, the fear of poverty, drives me to try out so many legit businesses. I have not arrived where I want yet, but with the right training and right person's, I will be. I want to have multiple streams of income.
ReplyDeleteStella, it's got to be my fiance. His dad abandoned them 7kids with his mum, He was just in ss1. He left school, studied at home for 2 years, took the SSCE exams and passed excellently. With no one to help him further his education, he served as a messenger in a company for years, saved and went to an IT institute. Today, he's got his own company, employer of labour and with my two degrees, I work for him who has none. He inspires me.
ReplyDeleteInspiring!
DeleteLife itself inspires me, been an orphan for 9yrs now. How we finished school only God knows, no job yet so i went into fashion and by God's grace i will get there. I want to prove to our bad relatives that, yes our parents are late, yes we are all girls but we are not useless. That inspires me and God keeps me going.
ReplyDeleteOh my God
ReplyDeleteMy mom inspires me
Even my hubby knows that
I'm so driven when it comes to my business just like my mom
There is no holding her back
There is no risk she doesn't take
When she takes risk and fail, she does it again in a different way with better result..
She is just too good in business
Nursing was never her calling
Her calling was in business and she does it better than anyone..
List of people who inspire me....
ReplyDeleteMy mum: For her perseverance and never say die attitude.
My dad: For his unflinching care towards us(his kids) even in crisis.
Mrs Boma Cookey: For her care and benevolent spirit towards humanity.
#Sleek
First my Mum.
ReplyDeleteSecondly my hubby. His confidence in me makes me never to consider failure when I set out to do anything. He keeps telling me"I know the woman I married and I know impossibility is not a word in her dictionary".His unalloyed confidence and belief in me is 80% responsible for the success story I have become today.
My mum. She is so hard working.
ReplyDeleteMy Under graduate project supervisor inspired me back then in school and I vowed I was going to become a professor by the age of 30.Although I derailed into the corporate world,but I am fully back on track because I wasn't fulfilled working in the bank. Yes I resigned to a job paying well over 120k less but I don't mind I will get there by Gods grace. God is my number one inspiration his love for me can never be quantified.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.

My thinking faculty has really changed
I don't look down on myself anymore and I use to believe that one day I could become the richest woman in Nigeria or Africa
Some people are on this blog to see other people's mistakes and cuss them out even though I get entertained, it wipes tears away my face atimes when am depressed. It hasn't been easy. I eat the best and wear the best (life is not all about that) you are nothing if you don't have anything to your name
Thanks to the people that famz here as if they have it all, you rock because you also inspire me in a way no one understand. I learn from every circumference
Have learnt how to give here which is a source of blessing, my thoughts before is that you give when you have more than enough
I bless the day I discovered this blog. I so much admire you stella and some bvs here. You all rock! You inspire me! I love you!
That giving part is what Stella has used her blog to teach us all. You don't wait till u have more than enough before u give out. Helping someone in need gives u one kind of satisfaction, u can't explain.
DeleteNice but what if I can't find a dream to hold on to. Honestly now. I don't know what I want from life. I just don't.
