Why Is It Only Online I Find Intelligent, Like-minded People, and none offline ? (218 Views)

Honestly, I’m just tired. The people around me physically whether it’s neighbors, friends, or even family don’t understand anything about the online space at all. I make a living from this digital world, but anytime I try to carry one or two people along, it feels like I just gave birth and now have to nurse a newborn baby. Most of them don’t get it at all. Even the simple stuff I’ll explain it over and over, and last last, they still won’t understand anything. I don’t even blame them too much. Not everyone will have online intelligence. But still, I keep asking myself why haven’t I met anyone offline who’s tech-savvy or even curious about this space? Meanwhile, online I meet intelligent, sharp people who understand exactly what I’m doing. We reason together, share ideas, and grow. But offline, I feel like I’m always “Mr Know All.” but this things are just simple things . And most people around me? Just doing TikTok etc, they only know how to send "hello" "hi" gossiping, chatting and wasting time on nonsense. Trying to help anyone offline feels like g a lifelong contract with headache. Sometimes, I just keep quiet because trying to carry people along is pure stress. They don't even know the use of the gadgets in their hands |

Ojumakaka:All they think of is how to make fast money either by Yahoo or trending videos on social media. Most have smartphone but intellectually dull. |

Ojumakaka:It can be frustrating, but I'll counsel u not to give up - esp. regarding ur siblings and anyone that you can trust to have your back - I have had similar situation happen to me and I regret giving up on training some people around me(they wanted the money but had no interest in learning the process, got fed up and let em be)... Somethings later happened that taught me valuable lessons. Pls don't stop trying to teach em(family and friends) even if it means "incentisizing" the learning process, a wealthy man among several average people, is an average man too - it might just take a while for him to realize it. Should, u go the xtra mile e no still work, u fit let em be, just make sure say nobody know your real worth. |

You no get right to tell me how I want take use my phone wey no be you buy for me bros. Secondly shey you think say as you dey receive your own, others no still dey get their own for another corner ni. As you say you dey take your phone code cash out , na so some take dey use the same phone cash out on low key just different strategies. Small boy of 16 years buy I i-phone of 1.5m for my Koro Koro eyes unto update wey him secondary school friends drop for am. What I just like to say is leave and let leave

Thomthom: please i am talking about people around me or people i have come across . not the general public . Hence I added that i haven't met such persons who are tech savvy that much . and of course since they are people I have met or around me i can tell you they ain't earning no shit . they are either struggling with salaries or one menial jobs in which i have tried to help some to set them free for life but they ain't picking up . Like my kidbro is actually collecting some dolls kudos to my patience in tutor but he is slow in of grabbing the full picture . but i pray one day he might pick up . But it is very painful that even if I won't have a mentor physically let me at least have one mr knows all whom we can help each other and share ideas . it feels somehow being around people whose topic isn't aligning to urs in of hustling and you can't help it. |
Thomthom(m): 4:41pm On May 24 |
Ojumakaka:Na now I get you. |
Ojumakaka(f): 4:42pm On May 24 |
Thomthom: This is what I am saying , the small boy sharp by grabbing the update his class mate share give an . how would you feel actually sharing an update with someone dear to you and it start feeling like a burden to you because they can't make out anything from it instead draining your mental health. that's exactly what I am saying and i am speaking for myself and wondering why i haven't met someone offline who is that sharp enough so we work together except online where i have met significant amount of people even better than me in my various fields . but offline seems like i am living in a different world |
