Veteran Nollywood actor, Richard Mofe-Damijo has shared a thought-provoking piece on his Instagram page for every young person out there. The A-list actor has taken time to motivate his followers who are mostly youth to be intentional.
The former Commissioner for Culture and Tourism in Delta State, stated that for an individual to be successful in any area of life, they have to be intentional.
According to him, “You do not wake up in the morning, have a bath, dress up nice and leave your house without an intention. You leave to either go to work, school, church, market, just take a walk, see a movie, whatever… The point is you step out with an intention”.

Many times I’ve been asked what advice I have for young actors and lately I have come to realise that the best advice for anyone, irrespective of career path is to be intentional.
You do not wake up in the morning, have a bath, dress up nice and leave your house without an intention. You leave to either go to work, school, church, market, just take a walk, see a movie, whatever… The point is you step out with an intention. Even if all you want to do is “waka round” without going anywhere in particular, that in itself is still an intention. This same theory must be applicable in your life, BE INTENTIONAL. Do not live your life without an intention. Don’t enter a relationship without an intention. Don’t start a business without an intention. Don’t pursue a career without an intention.
