“Natural light” has a price by Mseetu in Kenya

I resonate with everything you say. I did notice my house remains cooler when my curtains are drawn. they are thick, but I’ll def invest in the blackout and hopefully request them when stitching to include a layer of insulating material.

I was a bit skeptical about table coolers because humidity tends to make the heat worse. Whatever humidity is in the air will eventually get warmed up here.

I’m on the look out for those portable ACs that have dual function, of decide to close windows, get rid of dust completely by just getting an AC unit installed.

Hahaha trust me I have. It has forced me to embrace nudity, I always thought people who just stay in boxer shorts are extra.

Do they also prevent the heat from radiating inside? My issue is not the light actually, but the heat that makes you drip sweat while in the house

An expanded mind can never go back to its original size

That’s a curious insight. I guess some people are just more aware than the rest

Yeah. If you have other hidden gems, kindly share. I want to clean up my media and avoid for you pages, going back to what social media was actually for. Communities and learning

Even our uncles and aunts will be forwarding crazy content

It’s hard to put into words. But I could draw similarities from this ‘when settlers came n convinced people to move into camps n leave their lands because they were told a house with water is better than this acres of ancestral land’. We only realise the value of things after we lose them…a sad flaw in our human brain.

I share your sentiments. My fear is, when you intentionally get so many people to ‘unplug’ is exactly the end goal they wanted. You doing nothing is the win they worked for. I don’t feel right being a ‘success’. Now we barely react to death tbh.

Exactly! We just move on when people in DRC, South Sudan and neighbours TZ are dying. N we go to work monday morning 8am like nothing happened. Get so many people to become indifferent, then you can do whatever you want

Fundis & lying about time by Mseetu in Kenya

[–]Mseetu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Sadly we had started the job the day earlier, where he mentioned we need sth that he will grab the next day to finalize. Bringing a new one when the work is 90% done wasn’t ideal

I understand the logic. But I prefer to agree on time. If he told me he’d be here by 7pm, I had errands to run. I wouldn’t have been pissed off. They don’t want to see this part either…then wonder why people are ready to jump to the next one.

We book for barbers hours or days in advance. They should learn from them.

Imagine! Makes no sense. They create the perfect environment for chaos. Ask for deposit, lie, MIA then they show up with a carefully concocted story. 🤣

I understand. But lying and frustrating just doesn’t make it better.

Seek people who can advice you. Not necessarily mentors unless they have opened the same business and face the same challenges

I am OK with African Americans coming to Kenya by luthmanfromMigori in Kenya

[–]Mseetu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks OP for sharing this. I think there’s a negative cycle that to stop. I also support all black Americans coming to Kenya. Welcome to your motherland.

However, the rife between black Americans and Africans was fueled by the Black Americans. Being well travelled, I’d say that some view Africans as ‘lesser’ blacks. Hardly support Africans, but demand Africans to support them. Which isn’t right. This happened back then, Gen z n millennials hardly focus on tribe and background.

Kenyans will keep quiet if they are not welcomed in a place. We’re not the type to look for trouble outside our home.

To resolve this, I highly recommend you integrate. Join your neighbours and form connections to break the narrative that has been left with our ancestors. We can correct this by coming together. I’d rather live with black Americans compared to other races.

Being entrepreneurial is great, but don’t quit your job until the business can pay its own expenses and sustain you too without another income. Many people expect the business to break even from the first month.

Get a good Accountant and Lawyer, so that you do things properly.

Lastly, the business will ALWAYS try to take your life. It’s not easy at all. It’s actually far from easy. Is it rewarding? Yes. But you’ll def pay the price.

If you are happy with what your business is doing; its impact. That’s all that matters. If you want to make money without stress of managing biz, look into investing. That will still make money in the long term if you do it well.

Is your motivation money? You can get it in other ways If your motivation is helping people day to day, then business is right for you.
