A lot of Nigerians are migrating to the UK  and this often incurs social pressure on even the ones who do not have the financial capacity. To some people it's more of a fetish, to fulfill the "big dream"  of leaving the country and there's no planning or structure behind this fetish. I mean, social media drives this outrage.


A lot of people do not know beyond the UK, that's because they know the pounds and euros, their main source of information is the internet and a niggling social pressure, to leave the supposed ground zero they're currently occupying in other to move to the next level. I mean, that's how people measure progress.

 **Moving countries is a definition of progress, without the factors of work, wages, bills, sustainability, capital, and other factors**

 > *But that's not all*





 I have a cousin who had this mad frenzy about going to Canada, he already had a flourishing business, but he wasn't quite thrilled with the returns, there's nothing wrong with this. It's normal for people to aim to earn more money, but he entirely lost faith in his business, he pulled out too much money trying to run the visa and all that and the lack of concentration dented the business, he began to mismanage the business and when he finally realized he needed even more money to move, he dumped the ideas and had no other option but to return to the dying business. 

> *I think his passion to move made him underestimate the cost*

*But a job at hand.......* Might be better than two one never has. 


<hr>

**He saw a futility to the business** *simply because he ignored the structural aspect of things and in his strivings to move up the ladder,* his actions have dropped him lower than his previous position. In reality, there's nothing wrong with correctly weighing our financial capacity, sometimes we have dreams bigger than our finances and while this isn't also bad, it's also important to understand that, timing is of great essence.


 The ability to calculate the right timing to match our financial dispositions is something a lot of people are not capable of and if one is unable to weigh their financial capacity with their spending power. This makes them spend without completion, rendering them penniless halfway into achieving their goals.


 > *Half-achieved goals are no goals at all,* 


......**then it would have been better if they waited till they were better equipped.** Patience is a financial value that many people lack in the course of running their life, the inability to measure time and money is why some aims to move forward but subconsciously move backward. 

Nigeria for example is a huge contributor. The country's finances are capitulating heavily. The system keeps voting for the wrong people hence the weight of the economy keeps crushing everyone. For example, no matter how much you earn, and no matter how frequently your income increases, it'll still not be able to catch up to the rate at which inflation gallops per day.





 > *This crafts a perfect picture of how the ship is sinking*

 .......but no matter how fast the ship is sinking, if one does not take the time to jump into the belly of the sharks, it'll be attaining destruction while aiming to run from one. This means that moving necessarily doesn't mean progress. This is why we should evaluate different factors in our lives, the urge to earn or live better has sent some people down the downward slide.

 So unless you earn in dollars or have a business where you can easily achieve economies of scale. This already means that a lot of people know that the only way to salvage this is to abandon the sinking ship, but were they getting it wrong is that **haste** and **pressure** will never precede **planning** and **timing**. 



 > **We tend to overestimate our capacities when we're under pressure**


Sometimes we cannot create mental perfection with time and money, there will always be *bumps on the road* and we might incur small failures along the way even if no one plans to incur hiccups and failures in their well-crafted plans. 


At the end of the day, we're not bigger than what we are, if we do not match our big dreams to our capabilities and limit them to our original affordability, all we'll ever do in life is have white elephant projects and accomplish nothing in real-time. It's time to see "timing" as an essential area that you must develop In Your Personal finance journey
