    Whenever you see successful people, you only see their public glories, and never the sacrifices to reach them.
    Thanks for sharing this Jenifa, Giving up is the only sure way to fail. How much you can learn when you fail determines how far you will go into achieving your goals. I will keep trying until I succeed, my story is changing for the better.I will also be a blessings to others.....One love Jenny baby

    Oh! My FAVORITE Nigerian actor! Ese gan Funke Akindele for this wonderful message. A dupe pupo.
    I am not a young girl, I'm in my 50's, so your message is not only for the young people.
    I'm from Amerikkka and have been thinking about pursuing acting for many years. I've started then stopped.
    Acting is my passion! I have been in small community entertainment things on and off since I was 5 years old, dancing and acting. Now songwriting and poetry.
    Now, that's all I want to do. At this stage in life I have more drive. But because I must make a living, I have not pushed myself towards acting. But I really want to.
    Your message has now inspired me so much! Thank you! Olodumare bless you!

    I couldn't stop sharing tears 😭😭😭
    Now this is my story: My name is Tessy, a 26 years old girl who has always wanted to be a news caster wish she went to school. But life has a way of turning people around.
    1997 her mother died, 1999 her father followed and that is how her dream of becoming a news caster also died because they was nobody train her in school.
    And she started wondering in street.
    But today she have found another carrier as a RUclipsr similar to what she has always wanted to do, looking forward to upgrade herself and also grow her channel.
    Things is not moving the way it supposed to be because my English is not perfect.
    Am almost giving up but after watching this, am going to continue until I win.
    Aunty funke thank you so much for sharing this amazing story.
    It will definitely help a lot of people and am one of those people

    As I sat down to give up on some of my dreams and just settle, your video came up on my recommended list!
    Thank you for the encouragement and thank you for having a RUclips Channel!
