46 days agoLet's talk about success, not the type measured only by how far you've traveled or how many visas you've stamped, but the kind rooted in purpose, identity, and impact.
Too often, we're told that the dream is outside Africa, that success means leaving home. That to "make it," we must escape. But what if I told you that the African dream is not about escape, but about expression? Expression of who we are, what we carry, and what we can build right here, on our soil.
Relatable, right?
Many of us have questioned our journey, wondering if we're behind because we haven't "japa" yet. But success is no longer just about location; it's about intention. It's about knowing that what we build in Enugu, Lagos, Accra, Nairobi, or Kigali matters just as much as what someone builds in New York or London.
The African dream is rising.
It's young people creating startups from scratch.
It's artists using their platforms to tell African stories.
It''s farmers using tech to improve food production.
It's educators building new mindsets.
It's YOU and ME, choosing to believe that our dreams are valid, right here.
So I ask you:
What does success look like for you, beyond what the world expects?
What are you building here that the next generation will benefit from?
Because this is how we redefine success, not by leaving Africa behind, but by lifting Africa up.
