in OnChainArt4 years ago (edited)

Good morning hivers and lovers of pencil drawing.

My life Motivations

Patience: ability to wait for something without losing one's mind or temper.
Impatience: tolerance of delay, anxiety and eagerness to begin something.

You see why impatience has helped me alot in life.
Life has gotta lotta challenges yet very short. So what's the essence of waiting?

This is Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala who was (born 13 June 1954) is a
Nigerian -born economist and international development expert.

She has twice served as Nigeria’s Finance Minister, most recently between 2011 and 2015 – a role that encompassed the expanded portfolio of the Coordinating Minister for the Economy. In 2006 she served as Foreign Affairs Minister. She has also held several key positions at the World Bank, including as Managing Director.

Dr Okonjo-Iweala graduated with an A.B. magna cum laude in Economics from Harvard University, and holds a PhD in Regional Economics and Development from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She has received numerous honours, including Honorary Doctorates.

What got me amaze me with this woman is her style of head-tie the first I saw her on television during my secondary School days.

She's one of the few living legend we have in Nigeria.

I really loved this work although its an old work and I sold it out last year's December.
