I thought I was traveling to Lagos Nigeria to mourn the loss of my late father PAPA SYLVESTER
OLATUNDE OMOSALEWA AYANBADEJO. Instead we celebrated his life and legacy! This was my first Nigerian funerary ceremony. 3 days of prayers, eating, stories, and creating new memories. We laughed, we cried, we ate & dance A LOT! We sprayed Naira, we entertained and fed our guests, and we nourished those around us with love and affection. My advice to you in a time off loss is to share all the smiles and tears, attend all the ceremonies, do all the dances and customs. Eat all the foods, do it all together and support each other! My emotional cup and heart is so full. Please welcome me to the afterlife just like this!
Son, I know the (L) in the national soccer tournament was tough, and I know 1st hand how disappointed you feel. But I want you to know something very important: moments like this shed light on who we are! Your character, your resilience, your passion, your dedication, your courage, and the way you show up in adversity define you!
This is why AYANBADEJO’s never lose. We get blessed with (L)essons and we (L)earn!!
One of the greatest joys in my life is watching you thrive while doing what you love. It’s not about winning or trophy’s. Seeing you chase your dreams with such determination fills my heart with pride. Life is full of highs and lows, victories and defeats, but it’s how we handle these moments that shape who we are. The (L)essons you (L)earn through challenges are forging character and making you stronger.
While I will always be here to support you, cheer for you, and have your back when things get tough, I know this is a journey only you can navigate. You may fail but you always fail forward! That’s why every setback is a setup for a comeback.
Keep your head high son. You’ve shown immense heart, and that’s something no scoreboard can measure. Win, lose, or draw you already know we getting right back to work!

Blockbuster could have bought Netflix, and Apple could have bought Tesla, but they didn’t. Even the best of the best have to continue to evolve. That’s why Facebook bought Instagram for $1 billion in 2012 when they had just around 15 employees and were 2 years old. As of 2024, IG was valued at $70 billion. That’s a 70x return in 12 years. Facebook is one of the most valuable companies in the world.
OTF has made wrong decisions, it’s not for lack of trying, rather a lack of vision. Thus OTF has been a melting ice cube. I still love me some OTF & there is still meat on the bone. Here is what OTF absolutely needs to do in order to evolve & grow.
Keep in mind, I’ve never stopped doing OTF. I just don’t do the classes. I still go to OTF 3 days a week during off hours and write my own templates.
READ PINNED COMMENT FOR THE REST
We have over 10 fire crews in my neighborhood protecting the houses. From my previous posts you see helicopters dropping water in the near by mountains as well as planes dropping fire retardants. Not every home is going to be saved but it definitely makes an impact and a difference. I know these crews came from all over the country and CA to help us. Had to bring these first responders some hot coffee and cookies as a small small token of appreciation for protect our homes. Thank you!
Hey everyone I’m safe, so is my family and my dogs. I’m not sure my neighborhood will make it. It’s so sad and surreal. I was in the Loma Prieta earthquake as a kid in Santa Cruz California 1989. I was in hurricane Katrina in south Florida as well in 2005. All of these natural disasters have been life changing moments for me and so many others. Standing in the face of Mother Nature and her fury wields you helpless. You understand just how little control you have of anything in life other than you.
