Get Lost for 3 Months - One Year is better 😭😩

There was a young man named Emeka. Every morning, he woke up before sunrise, squeezed into a danfo bus, and rushed to work. His salary was barely enough to feed him, yet he kept going because that was all he knew. One day, after receiving yet another paycheck that disappeared in just a few days, he asked himself, “Is this how my life will be forever?”

That night, Emeka made a bold decision—he would disappear for three months. Not physically, but mentally. He would shut out distractions and build himself. And so, his journey began.

1. Lock Himself Inside and Learn

For the first few weeks, Emeka stopped going out with friends. He stopped wasting time on gossip and social media. Instead, he used every free moment to learn. He picked up his small second-hand laptop and started watching free online courses on coding. At first, it was hard. The words sounded strange, the programming languages looked confusing, and he wanted to give up. But he reminded himself, “Three months from now, I must be better than today.”

Like a farmer planting seeds, Emeka kept learning, little by little. Each day, he improved. By the end of the first month, he could already write simple programs.

2. Develop The Inner Self

But learning a skill was not enough. Emeka realized he also needed to grow his mind. So he started reading books about success, watching motivational videos, and listening to stories of people who had struggled and made it.

At first, his friends laughed at him. “Emeka, you no dey come out again?” they teased. But he didn’t care. He knew he was in a season of growth. He wrote down his goals, practiced speaking confidently, and even changed the way he thought about money.

Slowly, he became a different person—not just in skill, but in mindset.

3. Come Out with a Skill

By the end of three months, Emeka was no longer the same person. He had something valuable in his hands—coding! With the little money he had saved, he bought data and created a small website to showcase his projects. He started building simple apps and sharing them online.

One day, someone messaged him. “I love your work! Can you build a website for my business? How much do you charge?”

That was the moment Emeka realized—he had turned his time into money

4. Offer Your Skills as a Service

From that first customer, Emeka grew. He started offering his services to more people, charging higher as he got better. He no longer depended on his small salary. In fact, he later quit his job and became his own boss.

The same friends who mocked him before started asking, “How did you do it?” And he smiled, because he knew the answer was simple—he had been lost for three months.

Chinedu’s Story: Taking It Even Further

Emeka’s friend, Chinedu, saw his success and got inspired. He also started learning coding, but after three months, he realized something—he wasn’t good enough yet. He knew that to compete with top programmers, he needed more time to practice and master his skills.

So, Chinedu made another bold decision—he extended his dedication to one full year. While others were rushing to make quick money, he focused on becoming the best. He spent extra time solving complex coding problems, building real projects, and improving his portfolio.

By the end of the year, Chinedu wasn’t just a beginner—he was a professional. He applied for remote jobs with foreign companies and soon got an offer that paid him in dollars.

One year ago, he was struggling on a small salary. Now, he was earning more than some top managers in Nigerian companies.

Hurry up, Get lost now🙏🏻🙏🏻

BUT IT WOUNT BE EASY

Maybe you feel stuck in life. Maybe you are working hard but seeing little results. What if you take the next three months to build yourself? What if you reduce distractions, learn something new, and develop your mind?

It won’t be easy. People will laugh at you. You will feel like quitting. But if you stay focused, your future self will thank you.

And if three months is not enough, be like Chinedu—extend your time, master your craft, and come back as an expert.

Don’t just exist—build yourself. Be lost for three months, or even one year, and come back as a stronger, wiser, and more valuable version of yourself.
