It has been about a month since I last posted here, largely because of the various challenges I’ve been dealing with during this period.
One important lesson this experience has taught me is the value of living in an environment where basic necessities like electricity and water are readily available. Sometimes it’s not even about using them at that exact moment—just knowing they are available creates a sense of stability that helps structure your mind and improves productivity, especially if you run an online business.
My advice to any Nigerian out there is to always try to move to a location where these basic necessities are accessible. If that’s not possible, consider investing in alternatives like an inverter to handle power issues. The time you spend looking for where to charge devices or fetch water can instead be used for more productive activities. Even more importantly, the mental stress that comes with these struggles can be completely avoided.
Creating an environment that supports your work is not a luxury—it’s a necessity.
