It is almost New Year and if you are like me, you are probably in the middle of creating new goals and resolutions, especially in the area of money, health, love, and work. African proverbs are simultaneously poetic and wise; conveying ideas, lessons, and insights, usually from old to young. They are a perfect reminder of old age values that are a perfect guide for this time of year.

These 10 African proverbs can serve as inspiration as you set new intentions and as daily affirmations in those areas once the new year begins.
