What’s your biggest motivation?

In January 2011 I sat at a friend’s office for five hours waiting for

him to return so I can get some money from him. I got there 1.30 and I

didn’t leave till about 6:30 after which I got N10,000, which I was

more than grateful for. I never stopped working and I never stopped

believing. This is just a year plus later and I can’t believe how

blessed I am. What’s my biggest motivation? God. Every time I remember

that he’s somewhere up in heaven looking down on me, guiding me,

guarding me, it keeps me going. It doesn’t matter how tough it gets,

God keeps me going.

If you could change one thing about yourself what would it be?

I love myself 100%. There’s nothing about me I would change because

God made me exactly the way I was meant to be.

What do you look forward to more than anything else?

Being a mum. I have a godson and I love him to death. I can imagine

how much I will love my own child.

Secrets to success?

Hard work. Determination. Courage. Take risks. Test the limits so you

know what you’re capable of achieving. Be good at what you do because

then you won’t have to go to people, they will come to you.

Secrets to happiness?

Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Only then will you know how truly

blessed you are to still be here. Also be thankful for the things you

have and don’t focus on the things you don’t have. Love yourself

regardless of what anyone thinks of you. And always remember that life

is too short to be anything but happy.

Any advice to young people out there?

Three things: One: One day your life will flash before your eyes, make

sure its worth watching.

2. Never ever give anybody in this world the power to make you hate

yourself. Or the power to make you feel you’re not good enough, or

deserving enough, or make you believe you won’t amount to anything.

The only Being that has the right to judge you is God. Anyone else can

try but don’t they pay them any attention.

Finally. There’s absolutely nothing you can’t achieve. All you need is

will, drive, incredible courage and a lot of faith.

It’s been great talking to you Linda

I thoroughly enjoyed myself, thanks
