Life is not always rosy; we have good and bad times. We should enjoy the good days and learn to cope with the bad days.

Sometime in 2018, I was still teaching and had a lot of extra lessons to support myself financially. I was doing 4 lessons then, and I have the habit of calculating my earnings to know what to expect in 1 month, 6 months, and a year... Calculations like this motivate me to put more effort into my work so that I can achieve my target.
I was earning 3k, 10k, 6k, and 5k, respectively, in the 4 home lessons I was taking. A few weeks after I calculated my earnings, I lost 2 out of those lessons, which were the ones of 6k and 5k. This pained me because I have a lot of plans for the money, but there was nothing I could do; I kept on doing the other two, and suddenly the parent paying me 10k lost a lot of his money while campaigning for the seat of chairman in his LGA, and he could not pay me as before, he explained to me the reason for the delayed payment, i empathized with them and told them not to worry that I will keep on teaching and they can pay me when the husband find his balance.
When we are praying for ourselves, we should also pray for our bosses and other people helping us. If anything bad happens to them, it will affect us too because they won't be able to help or pay us anymore.

Look/grab new opportunities: When I lost those jobs, I did not mourn the setback for long, and at that time, I already found Hive, but I only post like 2 to 3 times in a week because there was no time, so the moment I lost those jobs, I had ample time to pursue my hive journey, so sometimes some disappointment is a blessing in disguise
Cut off the leeches: Some people come into our lives to just collect, they have no intention of giving back, the worst part is they don't see what you are doing for them as a big deal, when things become hard, it is necessary to cut ties with these kind of people because if you do not, they will end up taking the little with you and leave when they drain you, so cutting them off is necessary so you can manage the resources you have until you are balance again.
Last but not least, do not let the problem you are facing to put you down, shake it off, talk to friends and loved ones and stay happy, when you are in a good state of mind, better ideas will flash your mind and you would be able to work on those idea to bounce back... Failure is not the end of a man.
