I made my first million naira when I was staying with my mother and this was because I was able to save money. There isn’t a lot of pressure on me trying to buy or put money into something. I was very comfortable staying with my mother because there wasn’t any problem for me to spend the money I was earning and I did not rush. I was able to plan my life well before I left my mother. If you ask some people they will tell you is the wrong move. That is good to leave your parent early.
Some people will tell you that it is good to leave your parents early so that you won’t get so comfortable living in their house and if it was old me I would argue against this but now I know some of my friends that still stay with their parent just because they get so much comfortable staying with their parent. They are not ready to leave their comfort zone or face the harsh reality of life and just like typical African parents they are happy to have them in their house without even complaining. I believe staying longer with their parents is not doing my friends any good and for this reason, they have not been able to progress in life but it helped me.
Leave home for the right reason
Leaving your parents is not a problem, but most people are not doing it for the right reasons. People leave their parents just because they have access to little money and the urge to show off. Lack of experience in money management or how to even take care of themselves often leads to struggles but even though they might struggle at first, they will still be better than people who are getting comfortable living in your comfort zone.
Some people use the security that their parents provide as an opportunity to build something for themselves before they move into the world, these help them to go into the world with ease without having to struggle or experience the harsh conditions of life. This doesn’t mean that they won’t also find it difficult, but it only means that they’ll be able to stand well. We have some people whose parents set up but in the end, they lose everything going back to Square one all these people are forced to go back to their parent
Change your mentality
If you are living with your parents you can use that opportunity to build yourself before moving out of their house. It shows you have a good mentality, I believe everything has to do with mentality. Most people will advise you to leave your comfort zone and go out and experience a different mentality because you might have to get comfortable with a different reality but not everybody has to experience this some people have a good mentality and while staying in their comfort zone they are still making the right decision.
Our experience and good parenting allow us to make the right choice, whether we leave our parent's house early or not without the right mentality we will fail. It is good to leave our parents for the right reasons and also never be too comfortable staying in their house. The comfort zone is a disease, but if you are mentally strong enough to use your comfort zone to build something substantial for yourself before you move out of your comfort zone that’s a blessing. Some people use their comfort zone as an avenue to be lazy and some people move out of their comfort zone without a proper plan for themselves.
Thanks for your time.
