    Whenever you see successful people, you only see their public glories, and never the sacrifices to reach them.
    Thanks for sharing this Jenifa, Giving up is the only sure way to fail. How much you can learn when you fail determines how far you will go into achieving your goals. I will keep trying until I succeed, my story is changing for the better.I will also be a blessings to others.....One love Jenny baby

    Jenifaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, you have paid your dues in the move industry in Nigeria
    I remember ''I need to know'' like it was done yesterday
    You have indeed paid your dues. You made me fall in love with Yoruba movies. You and a few others
    Your switch from Yoruba to mainstream Nollywood is a feat
    You are indeed loved Funke Akindele AKA Jenifa

    I can't lie, I have given up several times...I try so hard and I see people who don't try as hard as I do get roles. I go for auditions, I post monologues everywhere, CZcams, instagram and Facebook and I keep tagging producers, directors but hardly do they respond....I will keep trying because I know GOD that put the talent in me is preparing a way for me...for everyone. Thank you Aunty Funke for this message.

    Oh! My FAVORITE Nigerian actor! Ese gan Funke Akindele for this wonderful message. A dupe pupo.
    I am not a young girl, I'm in my 50's, so your message is not only for the young people.
    I'm from Amerikkka and have been thinking about pursuing acting for many years. I've started then stopped.
    Acting is my passion! I have been in small community entertainment things on and off since I was 5 years old, dancing and acting. Now songwriting and poetry.
    Now, that's all I want to do. At this stage in life I have more drive. But because I must make a living, I have not pushed myself towards acting. But I really want to.
    Your message has now inspired me so much! Thank you! Olodumare bless you!

God will reward me

    I couldn't stop sharing tears 😭😭😭
    Now this is my story: My name is Tessy, a 26 years old girl who has always wanted to be a news caster wish she went to school. But life has a way of turning people around.
    1997 her mother died, 1999 her father followed and that is how her dream of becoming a news caster also died because they was nobody train her in school.
    And she started wondering in street.
    But today she have found another carrier as a CZcamsr similar to what she has always wanted to do, looking forward to upgrade herself and also grow her channel.
    Things is not moving the way it supposed to be because my English is not perfect.
    Am almost giving up but after watching this, am going to continue until I win.
    Aunty funke thank you so much for sharing this amazing story.
    It will definitely help a lot of people and am one of those people

    As I sat down to give up on some of my dreams and just settle, your video came up on my recommended list!
    Thank you for the encouragement and thank you for having a CZcams Channel!

Money is good, but if it's your only motivating factor, giving up is just around the corner. Like she said, apply her story to your own struggles.
