I'm that person who will go to an extent of borrowing from mobile lenders to help others. It's been really hard to say No and I always end up stressed when I don't help. I'm learning and unlearning.
My mother was always concerned about helping people, making them happy and carrying their burdens even most times more than mine. She also had a lot of friends. When she passed away none of the people she cared so much about and served came for her funeral. It made me realize that in this world you should put God first on your life cuz He is the only one who is faithful. After God put yourself first and take care of yourself very well. After yourself if there is any one who genuinely loves you and you can see it in their actions towards you, treat them well too. Be good to all but never play the role of God in people's lives. Also never make it your responsibility to be concerned about the happiness of people that don't care about your own happiness. They have a Creator.
As i am watching this show, i am thinking about how much other people have taken care of me my whole life. Till now i still find myself running back to the same people for the same kind of need and looking back on how other people have stood up for me, i wonder what it would have been like if they said NO to me. I have not done anything to them to pay back and i know i can not pay back, the only way i see is to pay it forward and thats why i find it so Hard to say NO when i am in position to help. The same people that help me are not the very people i help back😢
My take home, YOU CAN NEVER BE A MESSIAH TO EVERYONE SOMETIMES LET THEM SEE YOU AS A DEMON. GROW AND ESTABLISH YOURSELF IN SILENCE. MAJORITY OF THOSE WE HELP HAVE VARIETY OF OPTIONS OF SEEKING HELP. ACTIVATE SELF-LOVE❤ AND YOU WON'T DEPEND ON THEIR TIMELY PRAISES. REMEMBER EVEN THE DEAD ARE PRAISED NOMATTER HOW BAD THEY WERE.
A big sister of mine borrowed me small money (200 bob) she got mad when i asked for my money back but never showed me. She thinks my life is easy and i have no business asking for my small money back. Over one year now she doenst talk to me. 😔
I refused to cry with people coz when it came to my time, I cried alone. Let everyone cry their cry. I don't borrow money. Niliamua kama nitakosa rent na Mungu aninyime,acha nikalale kwa milango ya duka. Nisaidie watu halafu wanitukane. One had the gutts to tell me "tends wema nenda zako" when she gave me a deal ya 9k and took my cut 1500 nikampa the rest, I had to send her all the money, kept nothing...I analyzed that statement and asked myself, on a serious note, what have I been doing here all this time thinking this is my friend? I paid her bills in hospital for two weeks when her family couldn't even show up,today naambiwa niende zangu aftet kutenda wema. Nijikute tena mimi Steve,nijikute!!
The only thing you didn't mention is my name . Just the other day I took one niece to college without even thinking because of putting myself in her shoe(being an orphan myself and struggling). It's been 8 years of working and earning considerably good amount but with so little to show for it. The biological clock is ticking, I still have to push myself harder .I'm no longer happy with the job and day by day I feel more and more unhappy.I wish I could start a life and a family but I'm somehow stuck on this side. I've seen my brother to university only for him to turn out alcoholic,he's been using me all along . Thanks Benjamin
May the good you did to others trace you. I understand you v well but wait God is not blind. What you gave with good heart to help others to be better persons but turned against your generosity, don't regret it. Move on, learn and be focused. It's not all lost
Hehehe i know someone wah! 10k she paid 4k the rest she refused to pay me then i told her not to pay because i was tired of asking her.The next shock was when she came back to me that she needs help her daughter wants to travel abroad,i told here go to the bank that's how our relationship ended and am happy now.People have habits that you wonder what's wrong with them.
Thank you so much, I have had it enough being nice. I'm done rescuing people. Spend all my twenties attending to other peoples emergencies.... I'm going to recover my life in my 30s.. its sad to work and have nothing for yourself 😢.
For us living overseas we are the most vulnerable and exploited the best by family members and so called good friends -- I have been a victim of circumstances, paid school fees for the nephews and nieces, remodeling my parents house, paid hospital bills for my dad ... And not mentioning daily support that is uncounted for, things hit hard on me the time I need them help either building my house or telling them am really struggling and need time to help myself too... I became an enemy, niliambiwa--- am throwing blanks that I don't have kids, am stingy, am not responding to take care of my parents, people are building apartments in kenya and i have nothing, honestly i threw the helping keys to the sea and now its myself first not them.. op tjings will turn ut well.. giving people unpaid cash is a no!!😊
After finishing my mom house on got broke ..Guess what a story for another day as I typing tiz mom chase me out of her compound...but doing well got job they are begging be back
Vice President: Kijana Wamalwa gave so much to his Family. He did not even own a house , the government had to buy a house for the wife who was about to be evicted. N some family members r busy frustrating his kids right now.
Waah,very dis heartening, for good hearted people,the society need to shape up n take up their crosses,,no one has enough,people are just too selfish n they pretend to be friends,,thanks so much Benjamin n the lady for this enlightenment
Benjamin,this is the most potent message and education ive received from you since i vegun following you,ill lesrn to control myself going forward! I sort other people's financial issues onetime i forgot to psy my bills only to be awakened by. 40k bill arrears when i tried to ask the people to keep their promises to pay back noone moved! Round hi wataona!
My God, this came at the right time, thank you Jesus🙏. I feel so sorry for my Grandpa who was a victim at his peak times & right now life is too tough for him, so sad.
I have been unable to quit fuliza whenever I fuliza it's not for myself, society work, matanga, hospital, school fee fundraiser, church building, saving the old days friends, family members even some with more valuables that myself but looks for your intervention.
Sorry. This happens a lot. I stopped drawing from my savings to "help" others when I realised that they were only "needy" because they were paying loans for their huge investments Investments which I can only dream of. #LenderBeWare
Mr.Benjamin your intelligence hits me hard😢i needed to hear these words,giving out has been my order of the day where i never receive back even a sweet!!
It is well my dear. We are many. Even when we don't have people still don't believe we don't have. And we are the specie type of people who don't know how to ask for help.
Wah! I thought I was the one being addressed throughout the conversation. Damn! I have been a tap of help for the last 4 years. I have never grown myself. Saying NO has been a hard thing for me. Today onwards, "No, thank you" will be a norm.
Awesome session with a lot of wisdom. Mr. Zulu, there are also those family you will labour hard and give everything and even go extra mile. And when you no longer have to give. No one believes you. Even when you are dying
I saved this video (watch later) 2months ago😊n today I just felt like I should watch it. Guess what 😋 that's my new resolution from now on. Thanks bro you really nailed it there. I've been giving n giving, I had to run away from people n went to another province to start my own life. God bless you guys✊🏿
Good topic...but on behalf of the gulf team hapo kwa investing in family is a big Noo!!!....they suck everything inabidi useme nlikatwa salary because they drain to the last coin...uzuri pia umesema kuwe na limits..
I have this problem of being too nice...i have gotten some loans before to help people out and to this day some people have never paid me back and i dont know how to ask for it back 😭😭 i do like helping out tho 🤷🏾♀️ and not for clout. I treat people nice and with kindness because i also want to be treated the same
Now i understood i hv problem of being too nice to people, i hv been con by people 😢lend me money i wll pay back, tht moment i will send what i hv,i find myself too making alot of contributions to people,not anymore God knows please I need a heart of stone, no helping anymore
Do not forget that sometimes people will tell you sad stories and play victims, just get help. I’m saying it doesn’t happen, only for that reason. But be careful.
Some Families are toxic. So if it means you helping those homeless children so do it. Family, can be the best gift or the worst nightmare. Don't compare families. This topic is very informative and important to everyone who cares to listen. Thanks for sharing
Benjamin, thank you for the helpful information you share. I am unlearning this nice person trait it's very draining and steals one's confidence. People can walk all over you. Healthy boundaries and self love is a must when dealing with others. Change is as good as a rest.
This is me, i will deny myself to give to others, i will put my problems aside to listen to others..but when it comes to my time most do you dirt yet you were were there for them without expecting anything in return but atlst was good for them to be good to me. Am too patient and nice to people and since there is rare reciprocation i have ended up with resentment...juzi a frd i helped so much turned the tables on me n even insulted me coz now she has money n i dont yet l asked for nothing from her but a shoulder to lean on.
Woww lily as a host is just amazing for this show...so engaging and participative..I love it...am learning alot from you sir..keep going please 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💝💝💝💝🔥🔥🔥
Just as am listening.....'hi teacher nimejaribu kilajia nairobi siwezani njaa itanimalizia hapa' ... This is a guy we worked together in a home. It has been like this for years. Now i know better.
I'm a victim. TH-cam suggested this for me 😂😂😂But honestly last night I went to bed thinking about how to start being selfish and save the small monies I always give out just like that.
This is me 😢also am in the situation where by I have to provide for a parent who is capable of working but won't all in the name of she don't want to be employed
Thank you Zulu, you are so right, Joshua selman said he had taken care of so many problems untill one day he saw a pic of Jesus on the cross thats when it dawned on him that he never died for anyone Jesus did and thats when he decided he needs to ne going for vacation.i need to stop being nice too
The bible is clear about this. After you love God with all your heart, soul, might and strength, you then love your neighbor as you love yourself. If I love myself to cut back at self gratification just to save up for a better life, to avoid being a burden to anyone, then I will expect same from you. If I don't pity myself, I won't pity you. If I must give it must be to someone who has also met my discipline of living. Whether it is to a church or an individual. Again when there's a moving/prompting/leading of the HolySpirit, on that I'm a servant.
I'm that person who will go to an extent of borrowing from mobile lenders to help others. It's been really hard to say No and I always end up stressed when I don't help. I'm learning and unlearning.
I was like you but this days I lost all of them because of saying no.. Girl you better wake up!! Start saying no and they will dissappear
I have learnt, if something is not in my budget, then I can comfortably, guilty free, tell you am not in a position to help.
That has helped me a lot.
Same here😢
You'll need to develop a thick skin and master to say NO otherwise you'll be depleted
@@daphinenamuli7566 Yeah I'm learning to say No and mean it and be at peace.

Very true. I figured out early enough not to carry other people's burdens and not feel guilty about it. Ihave no regrets
Thanks for speaking to me
I’m glad I read this comment
That’s so sad.
You may be my twin coz my late mom did exactly this and later 😢😢non of those people she helped appeared to stand with us
😮 No wonder in my mid 50s and still have nothing but always working. I have been VERY NICE all through! I wish I heard this 30 years ago 😳
It's not late, in 10 years you can do a lot.

A big sister of mine borrowed me small money (200 bob) she got mad when i asked for my money back but never showed me.
She thinks my life is easy and i have no business asking for my small money back.
Over one year now she doenst talk to me. 😔
I refused to cry with people coz when it came to my time, I cried alone. Let everyone cry their cry. I don't borrow money. Niliamua kama nitakosa rent na Mungu aninyime,acha nikalale kwa milango ya duka. Nisaidie watu halafu wanitukane.

I paid her bills in hospital for two weeks when her family couldn't even show up,today naambiwa niende zangu aftet kutenda wema. Nijikute tena mimi Steve,nijikute!!
😂😂😂😂
So sorry for that, good thing you've learnt your lesson
Pole sana, but continue helping
Got that statement too alot.. pole.. it's hurting...
Just block her.
"If the Tables Turn and You Need Help,This People Usually Flee." May God Help Us.
Yes. Or never have nothing for you.
Now days people care for their own family,,,hard to consider relatives problems while his or her own family's problems hit the spot
The only thing you didn't mention is my name .
Just the other day I took one niece to college without even thinking because of putting myself in her shoe(being an orphan myself and struggling).
It's been 8 years of working and earning considerably good amount but with so little to show for it.

Hey, sorry for what you are going through.Hope u find an opening in this season.
May the good you did to others trace you. I understand you v well but wait God is not blind. What you gave with good heart to help others to be better persons but turned against your generosity, don't regret it. Move on, learn and be focused. It's not all lost
It's never too late to start a fresh
Its never late
I need to stop this giving 😢😢😢😢. Nimelipia watu maternity, kuzaa, school fees ya watoi, food for family rent....na mi hata sina mtoto. Am soo tired

Very eye opening I told my friend ww should have a foundation and setaside an amount for these kind of charity
Seriously i have always drained myself supporting people and they never appreciate.
Me too
Taking care of your child is not a task but love
We learn everyday. Waah you have talked to me.
🎉🎉🎉yes yes yes Zulu you're a star....
Thank you Zulu, you are so right, Joshua selman said he had taken care of so many problems untill one day he saw a pic of Jesus on the cross thats when it dawned on him that he never died for anyone Jesus did and thats when he decided he needs to ne going for vacation.i need to stop being nice too
Thankyou very important
Thankyou Benjamin,Godbless
This is not a coincidence that I come to this channel.
I am a nice person unlearning certain belief system.
Thank you Benjamin Zulu
I like the conclusion. We love you Benjamin
I wish I knew this earlier but it is not late
Thanks mr
I love this
You not alone 😅😅 jipende aki
"Your lack of planning should not be our crisis"
So educative
I believe the church plays a bigger role of us being extra nice by asking us to think of others highly than ourselves
The bible is clear about this. After you love God with all your heart, soul, might and strength, you then love your neighbor as you love yourself. If I love myself to cut back at self gratification just to save up for a better life, to avoid being a burden to anyone, then I will expect same from you. If I don't pity myself, I won't pity you. If I must give it must be to someone who has also met my discipline of living. Whether it is to a church or an individual.
Again when there's a moving/prompting/leading of the HolySpirit, on that I'm a servant.
From🇲🇼😢😢😢😢it's like you know me every thing your saying I need to stop
