YOUR INACTION WILL COST YOU

Mar 31, 2021
3 min read

When covid-19 was announced in China, i didn't really fathom how threatening it was until it hit my country Kenya, a country where to be honest 'najihurumianga kuwa mkenya kila siku'. When covid-19 hit my country, its effect were massive, and i am not talking about the spread and the deaths no, that one we are still struggling to hit 3000infections a day, in fact, malaria has killed more people in my country than corona. The effects i am talking about are things like people losing their jobs, hotels shutting down, events shutting down and other unnecessary measures that the government put up just to look like they are doing something, while in reality 2billion was being stolen each day, i mean 'si ni prezzo mtukufu jayden alisema pale kameme radio station ama namna gani'.

Quit complaining

I will talk about corona and its effects on another blog but ill touch it here once or twice. So after losing jobs, shutting down hotels, and other key service industry, there has been a major uproar day in day out from people who were and are still being affected by the measures put up by jayden and his people, they're a lot of complaints some genuine some lame but they are still complaining. The question is which side have you chosen, yes you reading this, are you on the side of the guys taking massive amounts of action, or are you on the side of the guys pushing hashtags that at the end of the day is not putting food on your table or are you on the side of those being paid to actually push those hashtags ( yes guys are paid to push hashtags ), are you on the side complaining about how there is money for BBI and no money to handle corona well or are you on the side doing the same thing but sponsored by organizations and parties that do not support the BBI. Whatever side you choose remember there are effects for each action has equal and opposite reaction.

Statistics

Even with this pandemic, more millionaires have been created more than ever, 'ata covid millionaires bado ni millionaires'. while you were complaining, Elon Musk became the richest man on the planet, for a moment, and then you know Jeff Bezos took back his spot again, Zoom made a killing when we thought Skype would win the battle, TIKTOK made more celebrities like azziad and flaqo, and uber eats should we even talk about them, the same period a Tesla was spotted in Kenya. So do you still want to be on the complaining side or you wanna make a killing and be among the guys saying 'kusota ni wewe'.

Take massive action

We are taking action, but sadly a majority is taking the wrong action, for example, there is a boda boda guy complaining of how there is no job since guys are not moving a lot, and then there is a boda boda guy who has turned himself into a delivery guy and is making a killing of his motorbike. There is a hotel owner counting loses because he sells food only and had to shut down, and then there is a hotel owner who turned her restaurant into a co-working space and is making a killing since people are working from home and well not everyone can actually work from home. There is an artist complaining of how there are no shows and concerts and there is an artist who started a podcast and has a virtual concert every Saturday on youtube.I can't ignore the CEO of jabo jabo who ventured into the business of manufacturing masks and made more money than he used to make with his Bonfire adventures. There are so many examples i can give, my point is there so many opportunities, but it will require one to look deeper and think outside the box, even me i just thought right now i can make a website and an app to help people get affordable houses in Nairobi (anyone reading this please fund me). Thinking outside the box is not enough, you have to take action, for each action you take there will be an equal and opposite reaction, and even taking no action is an action by itself and the results are massive failure followed by stress and depression. so my dear reader, take action.
