THE ENTREPRENEUR MINDSET



Details

The Entrepreneur Mindset is a mentoring
session with the Chairman of First Bank of
Nigeria Ltd., Mrs. Ibukun Awosika aimed at
preparing students, especially those in their
final or penultimate year who are looking
forward to life after school as entrepreneurs or who have already started some form of business and would like to learn the requisite skills for growing their business in
a sustainable manner.

This conference would help demystify
entrepreneurship and provide participants
with a clear path to what it takes to be a
successful entrepreneur.

I LOVE YOU, BUT I AM CONFUSED



Tonight, days after anticipating
I hoped we don't go our separate ways
It hurts too much to lose you
There is really nothing I could do

Why you are hanging out with me
Got me the whole night thinking
This too good to be true
To love someone unique, beautiful as you

What is the catch, please tell me?
Do you love me out of pity?
Because I told you at night I can't sleep
Not even the moon could steer my mood 

Believe me, I am much as you are confused
Maybe it is because I took too much caffeine
That I am hallucinating about my feelings
But the heart thinks otherwise, she wants to be with you

CONTENTION



While the night lies
Tiny drops of water slipped through my mind
The stars had an early nap
Life felt ample quiet after it rained

Exempted to the sound of my heartbeat
Which insisted we stay up late
To figure out the state of my mind
An habit I have become accustomed to lately

The wind is pretty tonight
Maybe it is because the moon asked her out
I could tell, the moment she wouldn't stop talking
So I shutdown the window blinds

With disguise I was feeling sleepy
But for a moment I felt jealous
I was spending the night alone
Just had a fight with my fiancee

This left me vexatious, I try to curtail my emotion
At one point, I wished it was not a bad dream
I wouldn't have to hide my heart under the pillow
So no one would get to notice

How lonely and miserable life could be
But this is not about holding back my feelings
Not about the complexity of the human mind
But the true perception of an imperfect life
