_Introductory Post_

Hello Steemians. It is a pleasure to stee-meet you.

Je m’appelle Tola Ibrahim. My friends and acquaintances call me TI. Je suis Nigerian.

I am a student of life and lover of nature. I am a big follower of cryptocurrencies, as I believe it is the near future of our world.

I am driven mainly by the desire to be part of the Nigerian success story. I want to be able to contribute my quota to national development and help reposition Nigeria as a globally relevant and respected country in the committee of nations.

I find fulfillment in being able to achieve whatever I set out to do. I do not take NO for an answer. I don't stop until I get results and when I do, there's no greater feeling.

I'm naturally laid back with a gentle mien. But beneath that gentle approach is a will of steel that is hard to bend even under extreme pressure. I always have a positive outlook to life and strongly believe that with God, all things are possible. Impossible est rien!

I do play football...

Love to take a day out with friends when the right opportunity presents itself...

I do read a few books; fiction plus books that teach sound principles of life and living. I'm not a big fan of motivational books; I believe there's enough motivation around me already.

Did I already mention that I am an Engineer and in active practice? _Wink! _

In my next life, I want to be taller; I am only 5’10”, not a bad start.

I believe things don't change until we challenge the status quo and act on our fears. Action cures fear, act fast but act right. My favourite quote is by T.E. Lawrence. It says “All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake up in the day to find it was vanity, but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible.”
