This is good!

My mentor said the same thing to me earlier this year and it is so true. I used to think telling them would keep me accountable and all, but omorr, sometimes it's about the accolades.

And not everyone will understand your goals, no matter how hard you try to explain it. Some will even discourage you, out of the best intentions.

This is a reminder to me sha. To let the screen do the talking. And it helps that my name is also Temi. 😌 Kinda feels like a letter to me 😂

And maybe, just maybe, I will finally watch Black Panther. 🌝

Thank you, Temi! 🤍

I love how you admitted it could be about accolades. Sometimes, we could just be saying it to sound productive, and that’s all it gets us: sounding productive instead of being productive.

Also, we can indeed be discouraged with the best of intentions. I have had that experience, and it just makes me realize you can only tell people who have had a similar experience to ours.

Glad you found it really useful.

And what do you mean, you haven’t watched Black Panther? What?????
