Hello beautiful people. Before we indulge let's prepare our minds with these few quotes ;
"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." - Eleanor Roosevelt
"The best way to predict your future is to create it." - Abraham Lincoln
✅As I reflect on the ongoing evolution of this century, I'd like to share some of my observations. Firstly, in anything you do, ensure God is involved (na so e be now o, hold am very tight). You can't afford to risk life without Him at any point.
✅This era is fashioned towards connectivity (who you know, and who knows you). While God helps even people without anybody, He often does so through people with higher connections(having what you don't). Seek meaningful connections and relationships, maintain good ties with those you already have and play your part. Be connected!
"I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples." - Mother Teresa
✅As we navigate this tech-based era, it's essential to register on important future systems. You might not need them now, but it's crucial to be prepared. For instance, open a foreign account capable of receiving direct payments from other countries (e.g., Geegpay), scan your documents and save them to Google Drive or a trusted storage medium, and on.
✅Avoid relying solely on one option (as you dey single e no do you). Instead, have multiple phone numbers, bank accounts, emails, and even names (if you have a middle name, use it... Story for another day). Having a backup plan is essential in today's fast-paced world.
✅Utilize the right social media apps and platforms (depending on your target and goal). LinkedIn is a must-have, regardless of your profession. Other essential platforms include Gainrep, Pinterest, Threads etc. While it's entertaining to scroll through TikTok and Facebook, remember to prioritize learning and personal growth.(no be to dey laugh on TikTok and Facebook... )
✅In today's competitive world, attending seminars, webinars, and boot camps can give you an edge. Identify what sets you apart from others and develop that unique skill (something weh get sense and value shaa). Focus on acquiring digital skills from recognized platforms or institutions, leadership, management, or organizational skills as your interest may be or even online courses(there are some free platforms, trainings for some).
"Learning is not attained by chance, it must be sought for with ardor and attended to with diligence." - Abigail Adams
✅If you've acquired a skill, ensure you obtain certification from a recognized source. This will not only boost your confidence but also increase your market value.
