Kuna expectations fulani hidden huanza kufuata msee the moment amemaliza chuo, either Highschool ama Campo:

“Wee ni mwanaume sasa. Lazima uprovide...”

👉Dooh?

👉Stability?

👉Comfort?

👉Kanyumba?

👉Security?

Na ndo punchline iko hapa — unatarajiwa ufanye all that... hata kama hauna kitu.

Huna job. Huna room yako.

Hata sometimes huwezi afford vitu basic kama food ama airtime... pesa ni kama inakuhepa daily.

Na Hii Pressure Huanzanga Mapema

Ukifika early 20s, society huanza kukuona

wee ni msee kamili, Not that bad — na unafaa:

• Kulipa bills

• Kuprovide kwa dem (ama familia mzima)

• Ku-move out

• Fund projects...etc

Na bado ushikilie MENTAL HEALTH yako strong.

Mind you...  Still uko broke, jobless, na kwa system corrupt yenye imewekwa na mafala kama kina Ruto🤮

Tuambiane tu ukweli:

▪️Job market ni messed up, for real 

▪️Economy imechoka, though tukona hope for better days

▪️Corruption imeban kila opportunity

▪️Bank haitaki kukupea loan juu account yako ni dry kama ugali ya jana

▪️Na hakuna mtu wa kukufunza financial literacy — but unafaa “kujua tu venye itaflow”

But Still — wanataka uprovide.

Skuizi Mwanaume Ni Kama Wallet 💰

Ni sad vile society hu-view most guys kama utility.

Wee ni wa maana tu kama unabring kitu kwa meza.

✓Feelings zako? No one gives a damn.

✓Stress zako? Ah, si udeal nazo.

...“Wee ni mwanaume. Utajipanga.”

But The Bare Truth is...

Hii MENTALITY inaua vijanaa “mentally” — na mtaa haiongelei hiyo enough.

Ushawahi skia ATM Ya Emotions...🏧

Imajin wee ni ATM — kila mtu anacome through kufanya withdrawal. Hivyo ndo wasee wengi wanafeel saa hii:

🔹Mzazi anataka pesa

🔹Madem wanangoja gifts na dates

🔹Mabeshte wanakuomba support

🔹Strangers wanakujudge juu huonekani “umefika”

Lakini hakuna mtu anauliza kama balance yako iko low — emotionally, mentally, na financially.

Na ukiongea? Unaambiwa:

“Be a man.”

“Grind harder.”

“Acha kulia bana. Kwani wee ni mwanamke”

Friendships? Ziko Tu... Lakini Kuna Hiyo Vibe

Maboys hawaezi kukuambia direct unafaa kuwa na dooh — lakini vibe inasemanga.

Unaanza kuchoma hangouts juu hauna fare.

Unanyamaza kwa mbogi wakiongelea investments... I've been there walai 😂

Una pretend uko chill, kumbe unadeal na mia mbili ikufikishe hadi Friday.

Polepole, unajitoa.

Si juu mabeshte ni wabaya — lakini juu wewe mwenyewe unafeel embarrassed 

Burnout Ni Real, Bro !

So unahustle. Unaingilia kila gig:

Forex, crypto, thrift, betting, M-PESA, YouTube, freelancing — yote kwa wiki moja

Kulala 3hrs max. Na bado unasmile kama uko sawa...

Mpaka siku moja mwili yako inasema “Wacha ujinga”.

Unacrash. Nayo akili  inasema

“Me siwezi tena.”

Lakini huwezi pause — kumbuka society bado inakutaka strong.

So...What Now?

👉🏽Redefine Meaning ya “Provide”

Hii story ya kuprovide si lazima iwe juu ya dooh pekee.

Unaweza provide:

Loyalty

Wisdom

Emotional support

Leadership

Vibe clean

Vision

Hata ukiwa broke, na uko kwa journey ya kujijenga — bado uko valuable.

👉🏽Jua Kusema “No” Kwa Expectations Za Ufala...

Usiogope kusema:

“Sai siwezi kusaidia.”

“Bado nacheza lower league.”

“Niko kwa process ya kujijenga.”

Hii si WEAKNESS — ni MATURITY.

👉🏽Tafuta Safe Spaces

Tafuta mtaa unaeza kuwa mwanaume akona feelings — si wallet ya kila mtu.

Mahali unaeza sema:

“Nimechoka.”

“Na-struggle.”

“Najaribu, lakini life ni mbaya.”

Hata online, kuna wasee wako ready kukusikiza...hii hata ni safe kuliko kwa ground.

 🗣️JiongeeBro

👉🏽Ji-invest — Hata Bila Capital

Hata ukiwa dry kwa pockets, unaeza build:

Skillz (YouTube, TikTok, Open Courses)

Discipline

Routine

Vision board

Emotional control

Mindset ya real G...

Anza tu polepole.

Last Words — Na Ni Real Talk

Kila msee anasoma hii:

Wee si failure juu hujafika bado.

Wee si fake juu hauna doh.

Bank balance yako haiku-define.

Grow at your own pace. Seek help.

Unafaa kuwa HUMAN, sio MACHINE.

Na siku moja, utasema:

“Nilipambana, nilisota, nilijaribu — na nili-make it.”

Na hiyo itakuwa the most solid feeling ever 💯

So....💬

Ushawahi skia pressure ya kuprovide na hauna kitu?

Ebu tuchapie — huwezi jua venye honesty yako itasave msee mwingine hapa mtaa.
