My brother recently sent me a video of him in an autonomous vehicle driving down the streets of San Francisco No big deal, right? Well, a car moving, changing directions, stopping – all on its one is not something I envisioned 15 years ago. Although I know people that work at these companies, seeing an […]
“have no fear for atomic energy, because none of them can stop the time” Those are the soothing words from Bob Marley’s redemption song. Revolutionary music! YES! My balled-up fist sailed into the sky. That revolution did spin me into a quest for scientific knowledge. Can time be stopped? Do you know how your watch […]
What time is it? I bet your first instinct is to look at your watch, your phone, or a clock (if you still have one of those hanging around). These are all synchronized (agreed-upon) times. But what are we actually measuring? What is time itself? Who’s time? A Nigerian and a German were supposed to […]
Feedback is a gift. …that keeps on giving. This was pounded into my brain while getting indoctrinated into the world of MBA business at Stanford. “you have to remain open to feedback to improve and grow.” At the end of my time on the sunny campus in Palo Alto, my classmates and I had become […]
What’s the meaning of life? I find myself asking that question every other week. Is that a high frequency? Do you ask similar questions? This is a question I’ve asked ever since I was 15: “Why are we here?” It came to a head in January 2002 when I found myself face down in the […]

“You are A1 material” That’s what my mom told me, standing on the stairwell landing at home in Ikeja, Lagos in 1998. It was a humid morning during my summer holidays – on my way to JSS 3 (9th grade). I was 11 years old and my main priorities had become playing football in school […]
Why is it that achieving things only leaves you wanting more? I remember in 2008, when I got my first job out of graduate school. I was very excited and called my parents to tell them the news. My dad was very excited and then dropped some wisdom on my lap before hanging up. He […]
The machines are about to take over your job. Don’t wait for the robot security to escort you out of the building. Just pack it up and quit while you’re ahead. That’s what it sounds like these days. Everyone is so caught up with Artificial intelligence (AI). The alarmists are at it again. Although it […]
Pay Attention Time is your most valuable asset. So I’m not going to waste it. The inevitable truth is that we are all going to die one day. What you do with your limited time on this earth is entirely up to you. I know. I’m in such a cheery mood. But that’s the truth. […]
