10 Things An African Should Have Before The Age Of 30

(1.) Get an education

It is mandatory that you possess a document authenticating that you have gone through a formal school, making you the owner of at least a first degree.  

 (2.) You should already have a career or business line. No matter the economy of Africa, any youth in this age group must be self sustained. Scrounging off on anyone without a legitimate income is a blinking indication of where you are headed.

 (3.) Get a personality

People should by now have an idea of who you are. Even if it is not everyone, close people should be able to tell what you are capable of. If you are still a chameleon, unstable at this age, then you definitely lack a good reputation which is needed to move you to desired levels.

 (4.) You should already have a steady relationship even if you are not married. If you have not been able to relate with someone from the opposite sex with the intentions of settling down, then you need to check in for spiritual or psychological help.

 (5.) You already have a focus in life. You know what you are designed for and are already known with it. Any other thing means you are late.

Thing is, you can never make it far in life doing everything that is not meant for you. So at this stage, you should already be in hot pursuit of your dream.  The vision should be already clear and you are walking in it.

 (6.) A permanent physical address

It is only 419ners that are illegally allowed to want to transact businesses or serious relationships with imaginary and unverifiable addresses because they are fraudsters. No serious person should conduct such a lifestyle, hence to successfully belong, you require a valid address.

 (7.) You should be impacting at least on a life or lives. At this phase in life if you are not accountable for someone or people, then you should be reviewing the journey. As an African especially, you should be responsible for the stability of people, either emotionally, materially, financially or otherwise.

 (8.) Internet Address  

If you are in the category of those that will make impact beyond their localities, then you must have established an Internet presence. If someone goggles your name and nothing turns up, then you have not yet started.

 (9.) Your spirituality should have been settled.

What you believe or not should be evaluated and accepted by those who know you.  That is to say, before you influence, mentor, have people believe and following you, they already have an idea what you believe because not many people will want to be inspired by you if your belief encroaches on theirs.

 (10.) Happiness.

You should possess some major of happiness in order to be healthy. We understand that age is one of those things that never stops going up, and if your sadness supersedes your joy, you may likely die sick, so, in order to avoid falling prey to many other illnesses.
