Nelisiwe Sibiya inspires followers with the story of her life before fame.
The multi-award winning actress dismissed claims that she was just lucky to be successful; the young star claimed to have worked hard enough to garner these achievements.
Nelisiwe briefly talked about how she supported herself through school, and how she struggled even after school.
“Shout out to my younger self After matric, the driven young me who had nothing but just a dream, a younger me who would take 3/4 taxis everyday to go work as a promoter on the streets and malls. Saving money to take myself to varsity because my mother was just a street vendor who couldn’t afford even to buy us clothes as long as sidle amagwinya asele from ukuthengiswa. The same mother who would accompany me to taxis around 4/ 4:30 am in the morning so that I catch the first one. I once shared that in those early mornings I’d find myself sleeping in toilets waiting for my shift to start if I got a lift.”
“I look at myself now and I cry, I cry because this is everything I always cried and praying for with my family and MORE IS YET TO COME.”
“As the year starts I know the stress from young people who wants to go to varsities, some don’t have money to even register and Some lost their jobs, some lost their marriages, some lost their parents and more and DONT KNOW WHERE TO START. I am here to say Do it!! just Do anything that will make you grow and stop thinking “abantu bazothini” no one cares about you and what you choose to do now will determine your future,” she wrote.
