Media personality and style icon, Toke Makinwa, in a new episode of her Vlog – “Toke Moments” – talks about the 21st Century woman and how potential is not just the only thing to look out for from a man.
Makinwa notes how ambitious today’s females are and how it affects the opposite sex. Talking about how the idea came to her, she said it was “on a flight with one of my favourite Aunt and we started talking about dating and the difference between her time (generation) and ours.”
Introducing her angle, Toke shared; “The Vlog today is a discussion, Let me throw it out there. Dream Vs Ambition, they are two different things o, some people will sell you a different dream every year, they are so comfortable talking about this dream they do nothing else but talk. You get exhausted from hearing them talk without action. This year you want to do oil and gas, next year you want to sell cars, every year a different idea with no implementation or set goals. They are so comfortable having so little yet they despise you for wanting more out of life.”
“I remember watching Acrimony and feeling like that guy was lazy. Yes, I said it. Nothing wrong with his dream but he lacked ambition, he could have gotten a job to support his wife as he worked on his dream on the side or maybe she enabled him sha o, that one is another topic for a different day. I will pick an ambitious partner over a dreamer. We all have dreams, my self is a dreamer but what are you doing now to get there? How are you plotting, planning, what do you do with what you have now? I don’t know it all but an ambitious person is driven and will always want more out of life. Stop talking about how this guy did it or how that one had help and get to work.”
