    What makes you most anxious?

    When I’m unable to complete a task or when something doesn’t go exactly as planned. I feel like I’m a perfectionist.

    For example. I’ve gotten into learning code for the past 3 years. For the past 3 years I’ve been on the same program. I’ve made some progress but not enough to be proficient.

    I was supposed to be done at the end of 2020 or early 2021 but I haven’t prioritized it like I should. Other things have gotten in my way. I hate doing that. That gets me anxious.

    Now the post script I have to learn how to trust God in this matter. To cast my cares on because He cares for me.

    What is your middle name? Does it carry any special meaning/significance?

    My middle name is “Adelekan”. In the Yoruba language it means “the royal wealth has returned”. That is so powerful. I used to hate saying my full name but as I get older, I’ve embraced the name and the significance.

    How has a failure, or apparent failure, set you up for later success?

    What experiences in life helped you grow the most?

    Keeping this short:

    • Volunteering at my local church
    • Volunteering for the local political club.

    These two things currently helping me grow in terms of leadership. I observe how others leaders lead and I practice the skill myself.

    Do you believe in fate/destiny?

    I’ll make this short and sweet: Yes. I believe that God has preordained a path for every single one of us. However, it is up to us as free moral agents to choose. What we choose, whether it’s good or bad, has consequences. That is the sum total of our destiny.

    Describe the most ambitious DIY project you’ve ever taken on.

    Maybe building the futon in one of my former apartments. Or assembling furniture from IKEA. I enjoy working with my hands but I need the instructions to give me a guide. It’s almost like building an adult Lego set.

    What advice would you give to your teenage self?

    Start working. Start saving. Don’t worry about your peers’ approval just put your hands to something and be productive. Everything else will come. God will take care of you.

    What bores you?

    When people don’t have an exciting story to tell. They lack enthusiasm in their speech or confidence. Whatever it is, it projects onto me, the listener, and then I tune out.

    Let me be clear, I’m not advocating for gossip or anything like that. I enjoy hearing a good story from one’s life. In that story I can glean nuggets of wisdom that I can apply in my own life. We’re all here to learn from each other. If you can’t sell your story, then I become bored.
