Greetings everyone!

 

This is Day 3.

 

If you read my Day 2, you know I was very down a day before today. I didn't even want to write this article,I said I wanted to give up. I checked my Lodpost views, my Nessa Beauty page, my OPay - nothing was moving. I cried small, I will not lie.

 

This morning I even told myself, "Let me just delete Lodpost and focus on school." Because writing everyday and seeing zero naira is not easy, especially as SS2 student in Enugu where everyone is expecting you to read book.

 

But then something small happened.

 

One person dropped a comment on my Day 2. Just one dot. Another person shared it on WhatsApp. And my aunt called me and said "I saw your write-up, well done, don't stop."

 

It was not money. But it was hope.

 

That made me realize something: Maybe my 150k dream will not come in one day. Maybe it will be 1k, 2k, one lip gloss today, one view tomorrow. Small small.

 

So today, I did not give up.

 

I posted 2 new Nessa Beauty glosses on my status. I rewrote my Lodpost bio. I saved 200 naira inside my OPay Target Savings instead of using it to buy gala. That 200 naira is now my profit for Day 3.

 

I am still far from 150k. I have not reached even 5k. But I am still here. Day 3 complete.

 

To anyone reading this who is also a small business owner, a student, a young girl trying to do legit work - please don't delete your dream on Day 3. That small dot, that small share, might be the sign you need.

 

Thank you to everyone who read Day 2. Please, if you are reading Day 3 now, help me again - a comment, a share, or just a word of encouragement can help me reach Day 4.

 

I will be here tomorrow for Day 4.
