The Nigerian version of poverty is stubborn.

You need to become a stubborn person in order to reprogram yourself from it.

Here is an idea:
Once a month (depending on your wallet), go to a premium hotel like Four Points by Sheraton, Eko Hotel or Raddisson Blu with a budget of N12k.

N7k for the lunch buffet and approx. N5k for Uber depending on where you live.
Dress like you own the place.

Enjoy the feeling of being driven to the lobby.

Don't drop at the gate.

Then go to the buffet and EXERCISE YOUR POWER TO CHOOSE.
Get back to your table, eat the delicious food slowly, not in a hurry. There's no scarcity here.

Feel like you belong here.

When you get back home, your mind will begin to change.
The experience itself will not make you rich, but your self esteem will greatly improve.

When your self esteem improves, you begin to feel like you deserve more.

When you feel like you deserve more, you get more confident and creative on how to get more.
Your mind will be stimulated to imagine more creative product ideas and monetization streams. You'll start calling up important people who can help make this happen for you.

Do 'money miss road' things like this at least once a week/month and your mind will begin to transform
By the way, this thread is based on a Facebook post by John Obidi 2 years back. If you think the money you spend to get this type of experience is a waste, that is the poverty mindset talking. This stuff is powerful. Try it.
