What really pained me from the brother who tried to insult me last week is that he knew me while we still in school.

In fact, we were in the same department and he would teach us math and help us prepare for our exams in Statistics department back then.

He was a bright and excellent student, and I respected him.

Everyone is done with school now and we're walking different paths.

But I don't know why he decided to play mischief with me.

Here's another person, this time, my coursemate, someone who he knows very well too...

He didn't insult me, he didn't let over-familiarity from school blind him.

And I did NOT even pity him as my coursemate and friend.

He came and paid for my program and started working.

Today, he even got paid before me.

This month, he has done more than $100

Something he paid just N20,000 for....

All I have always said is that you will never regret spending 90 days with me.

Mon€y will be made if you stick with me.

Some kind Americans gifted the women in their lives with my books yesterday. Most be the husbands.

Thank you for loving your women, and thank you also for buying from me.

Happy Women's Day Indeed❤️

WHITEN YOUR TEETH IN LESS THAN 10 MINUTES WITH LIGHT TECHNOLOGY

We already know what to do to stay fit and healthy.

But why is it hard to get started, or continue going after we're started???

Well, there's a whole topic of psychology on why we don't do what is really beneficial to our health.

We want easy things, quick fix and just push a button and it's all done. But we all know nothing good comes easy...
It doesn't have to be really difficult, but it's usually not easy.

Here's the trick: if you want to achieve something, put yourself in an environment where people who have achieved that result and people who want to achieve that result are in.

Your environment is stronger than your self -will.

Get in a fitness group. Get a trainer or diet instructor or consultant.

Get your friends to signup with you so that even if you don't wanna do it sometimes, they can somehow coax you to do it.

That's the best way to always be on your grind with health and other areas.

Hope it helps?♥️♥️

This week on MarGreen Stories, we bring you the inspiring story of a Superwoman- a Wonderwoman- Powerful- Industrious, Audacious, Venturous, Adventurous, Virtuous- RUTH OJAYS!

…….
Ruth Ojays is a loving wife and a mother of two. She studied mass communication at Amadu Bello University, Zaria and graduated in 2014.
Unlike many young graduates who roam the streets looking for white-collar jobs, Ruth created something for herself. She started her own beverages company called Ethli Naturals. They boast of having 0 preservatives in their drinks, wholly natural.
As a superwoman and mother, she has been the only one running her company since she started, working both as the operations, marketing, distribution and salesperson. Multitasking 💪. Super🤩

Ruth couldn't wait until she had all the money to start her small business. She had no shop or store, so she makes her healthy tigernut and kunu drinks in her home kitchen. She was quite innovative in how she sells her drinks. She has a mobile cooler which she pushes around the streets of Lagos, pretty much HAWKING. She's been hawking her branded healthy drinks all around Lagos for over four years, doing it cheerfully with a contagious fervour.

Our smart superwoman, Ruth, got her business on social media where she shares her entrepreneurial journey. Her captions are very interesting and they always reveal the kind of positive vibe she carries everywhere and how great she feels about her job. She usually calls her job 'the hustle.'
As they usually say 'all hustle must pay one day.', Ruth's hustle finally met divine hands at the right time. She was hawking again last month when TV/radio producer, Yemi Shodimu met her on the streets of Lagos, and at first, seeing her, he knew there was something exceptional about this woman. Her neat branded white round neck Tee shirt, branded white face cap, blue jeans, smart snickers and her smile all rang an impeccably amiable tone!
Stunned by the sheer exceptionalism of her person, Yemi Shodimu decided to interview her, and she answered all his questions gracefully. What adorable virtues she housed and carried around the streets of Lagos!

My people, God works in mysterious ways! I repeat again, God works in ways. What did I say again???
That evenings while Ruth was probably resting after a long day of trekking and hawking, something started happening somewhere.
Mr Nnamdi Oboli was browsing through his social media and saw the video DJ Abass posted where Yemi Shodimu was interviewing Ruth and found it really inspiring. He took the video to show his wife, our mummy 😍, Omoni Oboli, who was already feeling tired after a long day and just needed to rest. She pulled herself up and watched the video and felt for Ruth. She could empathize with her hustle, the stress, and the challenges. There in her mind, she decided, 'amma help this lady!' And that was the beginning of Ruth Ojays' breakthrough!
Our mummy doesn't see things like this and not respond. Never! She leveraged her huge and active Instagram fans and followers, posting Ruth's video and business page and saying wonderful things about her. And when she made a photo grid of herself and Ruth side by side, and posted it on Instagram, some people started saying that she and Ruth have a striking resemblance, that they pass for sisters. Really🤔??? For a split second, I was about to affirm that too.
Boom! Just one night and Ruth Ojays' Ethli Naturals got over 18,000 followers on Instagram and orders started pouring in for her beverages like storms! Ruth confessed that she couldn't handle all the orders that have come in but she's trying her best to serve all her customers. She's been taking orders since 😁.
When you meet your helper, they will go any length to see that they establish you. Our mummy took it as her obligation to establish Ruth Ojays Ethli Naturals. She called her colleagues, celebrities like her, and other Nigerians to support in the establishment of Ethli Naturals through her benevolent foundation, Omoni Oboli foundation. Her plan is to establish Ruth by getting her a delivery bike, get her a NAFDAG registration, and then a factory where she can produce in large quantities. We are glad to announce to you that donations have been pouring in and Ethli Naturals is on a big boom.

Ruth's story is one that every Nigerian should hear right now. In this season of pandemic and global recession when many have lost hope in the world and in their finances, you can find hope. Ruth Ojays kept the spirit alive. Her entrepreneurial fire was ever burning, and the reward is success. Ruth didn't think because she was a graduate then hawking will be demeaning to her, no, she hawked with a big difference, and she did it cheerfully!

Our favourite quote from Ruth Ojays: "You don't have to work in an office to be successful. You can do something on your own- and if you see that it is making a lot of sense, go for it."

What an inspiration she is!

Superwoman, Ruth Ojays, we're proud of you and we will continue to celebrate you! Thank you being persistent and consistent in your hustle. Thank you for not giving up on your entrepreneurship journey. It's not easy, but you are doing it well.
Thank you for being a source of great inspiration to both young women and men in Nigeria. We love you specially!
