Opportunities! opportunities! opportunities!
There are opportunities everywhere, but the problem is that many people’s eyes have been shut to it. Do you know that problems are opportunities in disguise? Your perception makes the difference.
Who are millennials? Millennials are both Generation Y and Generation Z, i.e., those born between the early 1980s and early 2000s.
Opportunity can be defined as a favourable circumstance or occasion. It is a chance for advancement, progress or profit.
While many people may decide to turn a blind eye to many opportunities that they could avail themselves of, we have decided to open their eyes by showing them opportunities they could grab. Hence, we will be sharing some of these opportunities available.
Shall we proceed?
EDUCATION
If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.
In our world, education is a vital asset that everyone must strive to possess. By education, I do not mean formal education alone, I also mean personal education- formal education gives you a job, but personal education gives wealth. Formal education is excellent, but personal education is necessary.
Education takes you farther than you can imagine. It is a leverage.
TECHNOLOGY
In our fast-moving world that has become a global village and everything is going digital, there is every need for you to be technology savvy.
As technology advances, try to upgrade yourself and be in touch with the world around you. There are many things you can do with the aid of technology, moreover, Google is your friend.
It is important you get basic tips on use of the computer, programming, graphics packaging, software development etc.
VOCATIONAL SKILLS
A person’s palms cannot deceive him.
Know this, whatsoever it is you do with your own hands belongs to you; it cannot be taken by anybody. Learning a skill is an important tool you must arm yourself with.
Skill acquisition is not an inconsequential stuff in this our environment, hence any available moment you have to learn a skill, don’t trade it.
John Maxwell in his book ‘ The 360 Degree Leader’ said:
learn your craft today, talk your craft today, and practice your craft today.
SCHOLARSHIP
Scholarships are grant-in-aids for students. Local and international scholarship abound for students to take advantage of, so as to make schooling easy for them.
For higher institutions, scholarships such as MTN, NNPC/Total scholarship are also available for students.
Scholarships could either be monetary assistance or sponsorship to study.
There are many opportunities available, it is left for you to open your mind to its possibilities and seize the moment.
A word, they say, is enough for the wise.
