A Swedish study shows an egg cell can reject a sperm cell even if it was the first to arrive. ​For years, we were taught the fastest one wins. This study proves otherwise, you may not have been the fastest, but you were the first accepted. Think about that for a second.​Sometimes being the fastest is not enough. Being capable, worthy, and chosen is what matters. ​When you're down, remind yourself, you are one of the rarest entities on Earth, with 1 in 4 trillion odds. You are not here because you were just the fastest, but because you are compatible, chosen, and worthy.

DID YOU KNOW THAT? Being born into a family that can provide food, clothing and shelter for you, and being at least 15 years of age puts you in the top 14 to 17% of the population. What i'm saying is, for every 50 children born, only 7 out of them meet the above threshold, and you're one of them. And with all that, we still have majority of us thinking and playing small. We still have some of us comfortable with the oppressive reality Nigeria is throwing at us. Think about that for a minute. Good morning.
