Dear You,
What kind of life are you looking forward to living?
If you had all the resources needed in building a great life, what kind of life or structure will you build?
What do you want to see in the next 5 or 10 years when you look back? Pain or pleasure? Regret or fulfilment??
For most of my life, I have been in search of a platform, a community, who have the same dreams and goals of building a fantastic life as I do. A platform where I can have access to most of the resources I need in building the life I have always dreamed of.?
Although, I am grateful for the level I have gotten to in my journey of building the life I have always dreamt of and I am also grateful for the individuals who have been instrumental so far and the events (good, bad, great, worse, etc.) that have led me to this point. But sometimes, I wish I had started this journey (more like a project *winks*) earlier; I would have gotten to a higher level. But, hey, this is a no-regret zone.
I fought against all odds to dream, picture, create, design, carve out and build the life that I have built and still building. I didn’t have the right knowledge or enough knowledge, nor did I have the right mindset, strategy, materials or resources or the right PEOPLE and COMMUNITY.
This is what led me to create this community or platform - the need to bring together a group of individuals who are yearning to intentionally build an amazing life that they will look back on in the next 5, 10, and 15+ years and be filled with fulfilment.?
Building an amazing life comes with deliberately taking actionable steps to put structures in place in every area of your life that will allow you to live the balanced and satisfied life you’ve always wanted.?
Building You is a platform created to provide you with the right knowledge, tools, skills and awareness needed in building a great life. But no, this isn’t a one-stop shop.
The focus will be on personal development as it concerns career and professional life. The target audiences are young professionals, entry-level individuals, and fresh graduates who are consciously seeking to improve their lives.
Of course, building a great life doesn’t come easy, but it is worth it. There are patterns you may need to break, unnecessary loads you would have to drop, the wrong mindset you must do away with, and relationships and environments you will need to put an end to and intentionally walk away from.?

You can’t build your life alone. You need all the help, input and support of certain individuals - some you may like, and some you may dislike. But whatever the case is, you can’t build without these sets of people.
Phew! Finally, I get to cross this off my list.
For a while now, I have been terrified of introducing this newsletter.
Kept asking myself questions such as; How do I introduce it? Will I use the right words? Will it make sense? What if people don't enjoy it? What if I appear proud or ignorant? What if???
But with trembling hands and shaky feet and a whole lot of what-ifs, I get to do this!
So join me in this journey to BUILDING YOU.
On a weekly basis, I would be sharing a couple of career lessons, life lessons, and resources that will aid you in your personal, career and professional journey.
It is going to be an interesting ride. Lots of insights to glean from. I hope you join the train!
Let’s build the amazing life we have always dreamt of together, brick upon brick.
Are you up for the process? Are you ready for the journey? Are you ready to do what it takes to build a great life?
Let's begin!
