I can attest to the fact that you are THE QUESTION guy💯

Keep asking my brother.

Just by the way if you've ever asked in your mind or you're going to ask me someday, here's my answer:

Yes, Ghana jollof is better than Nigeria jollof.😊

This is like a mantra for me, Tobi. And I think you have said it beautifully.

Be interested not interesting. And as great as this is a valuable interpersonal skill, it is key for any thriving leadership.

This is a refreshing take on intelligence! Tobi, the way you describe listening and engaging with others reminds me of why I enjoy working with authors and experts. There’s something magical about seeing that spark when someone talks about their passion. It's a reminder that everyone has a unique genius to share.

I enjoyed this stack a lot 😔 particularly because it really resonates with me, feeling like the one with not much to bring to the table on intellectualmatters. But you just made me understand that, offering a listening ear is the best much I can do. Thank you Tobiii

oh thank you so much. We have our own role to play. The more we know our roles the better. If there’s anything Watching basketball has taught me; it’s exactly that.

This is so beautiful because I also prefer listening to my smart friends, and also because you literally described an idea I had sometime ago but left unfinished😂
