“Leave your comfort zone” – Man shares success story after 1 year in Lagos
A young Nigerian man shares an inspiring story on how relocating from his comfort zone in Awka Anambra state to Lagos made him successful after a year.
In a video, @paschal_mbaka on TikTok detailed how he made the bold decision to leave his comfort zone a year ago with just N300,000 in savings.
Paschal acknowledged that his journey would have been significantly tougher without the support of his cousin. He noted that while his savings were enough to survive initially, accommodation costs in Lagos could have made the experience much harder.
Reflecting on the challenges he faced, Paschal shared:
“If you don’t leave that small town you grew up in or went to university, you might never succeed. A year ago I was in Awka; I didnt have much going for me. My copywriting business wasn’t going well for me.
“I sold everything; with 300 or 400K in my account, I moved in with my cousin in Lagos and started grinding like mad for one year. I found myself here today with a car, house, stable income and multiple clients,” he added.
Paschal used his story to encourage others to step out of their comfort zones, emphasizing the importance of resilience and leveraging skills to achieve success.
