There is nothing wrong with being a Black man or woman.
There is nothing wrong with being Nigerian.
There is nothing wrong with being Ghanaian, Togolese, Cameroonian, or from any African country you call home.
There is nothing wrong with us, and we are not limited.
Our biggest problem is the battle of the mind.
Did you hear that? Yes, that is the real problem.
Until you come to this realization—that your problem isn’t your wicked uncle or stepmother in the village—your success will remain stalled.
The difference between a Black man and a White man is their mindset.
As a man thinks in his heart, so he is.
What you believe and give your attention to is what you attract into your life. This is the principle White men operate by because it is not just a life principle—it is a scriptural truth.
Now ask yourself this:
The person who invented the mobile phone you are using to read this article —does he not have wicked uncles, stepmothers, or witches in his village?
Mindset is your real problem
There are countless inventors and creators whose innovations have shaped the world for generations. If I were to list their names and contributions, I would need hundreds of volumes of books to contain them.
Hear me clearly:
You are not a mistake. Your angel didn’t make an error by bringing you to Nigeria—or wherever you are, as some young people like to say.
Your mindset is your limitation. Until you accept this and take action, nothing will change in your life.
This is not mere motivational talk to make you feel good for a moment. These are time-tested principles that have transformed ordinary men into extraordinary people.
Mindset and imagination are everything. What you think, celebrate, and focus on is what you become. Faith and fear are two different forces: faith takes you beyond limits, while fear cripples your inner potential.
Greatness lies within you. You only need the right mindset and imagination to birth it into reality. If the thought ever crossed your mind, it means it can be done. Not just that—it means you are the one sent to do it.
There is nothing wrong with being Black.
You can become who you desire to be, right here in your country. You are not limited or handicapped. The greatness you seek lies within you—look inward and discover it.
“What will be, will be” is a lie if your mindset and imagination remain shallow. Train and develop your mind. You can create, invent, and be the solution the world has been waiting for. Every man is a solution to something on this earth—not just the White man.
Wake up and stop giving excuses about village uncles, aunties, stepmothers, or “village people.”
You have no excuse not to be great. Everything you need to succeed is already in you. Now, do it—and shine.
Find a problem you can solve. The world is desperate for solutions, and as long as the earth exists, problems will exist. You have been empowered by God Himself to solve them. If you are not solving problems, then you are part of the problem—both in your country and the world at large.
If you need to learn something new to enhance your potential and stand out, do it now. Discover yourself, identify your weaknesses, work on them, but focus on your strengths. Change your mindset, and you will change your life.
In conclusion, don’t forget God. Don’t forget to pray for strength and seek His guidance because our help comes from above. No man can hinder you if your life is rooted in God and aligned with His purpose. To be successful, stay with God and hold Him tight—He will lead you there.
Your mindset is your real problem, not your country.
