WHY POOR PEOPLE ARE POOR

 WHY POOR PEOPLE ARE POOR.  A lady asked me a question that confused me for few minutes.  She asked... "IS POVERTY A CHOICE OR A CURSE".  Actually, I didn't understand the question that moment, so I asked her to wait for me to think about it before I can give her an answer.  This was my answer "YES, POVERTY IS A CHOICE"  I know you are wondering, why answer it that way, don't worry I will make you understand "HOW POVERTY CAN BE A CHOICE". Before I move on, let me give you the meaning of poverty.  According Google, Poverty is the state of being inferior in quality or insufficient in amount. I will like you to underline the words "inferior and insufficient".  If you look around the world today, you will see that most people are in poverty because they are thinking that they are not good enough to do anything, maybe this may happen because of their environment, friends, parents and families. And because of this, they can not succeed in whate

How I built up myself

 Lesson from coding


I like it when my instructor started this class at Grand Style Computer Academy, being a person who loves computer, I was in love with  computer especially when it comes to web development.


This is how it started, I learnt the skill of coding from my instructor in the person of Obong Nkem, I knew that I would become one of the best computer users who can  develop a website that attract the world's attention like my mentor.


It was not easy from the beginning, I can still remember how I used to go to school by 6am just to attend web development classes.


How to be the best web developer was ringing in my mind everyday I woke up, I can remember how I stayed with my laptop from 7pm to 2am just to learn how to put image on my website which I spent one week to developed it.


The truth is, I couldn't put image on my website because my coding was wrong.


Sometimes, I would be angry with my sisters who were in the room very close to my room. STOP MAKING A NOISE was the slang I used whenever I started coding.


The glitches I experience in to putting image on my website was rising every moment I failed to use the correct coding, I never dreamed to stop coding just because I couldn't put image on my website, rather I spent more time to do research on how to put image on web development.


I spent money, time and energy just to learn this small thing 😀😀😀 I know you may wonder why I called it small thing, don't worry you will know as you continue to read 🤣🤣.


Some of the research I did was not really on web development, one of relevant research I did was on this book 'THE POWER OF YOUR MIND' which was given to me by my mentor #DanielAfiakurue.


I learnt from this book that the first thing I need to do to put image on my website is to convince my mind that I can do it.


Convincing my mind was not easy but I tried to do it because it was necessary to do it before I can become the best web developer.


I started speaking to myself everyday I woke up, I would stood in front of mirror and said good morning the great web developer. I would smiled and encourage myself as if I was talking to my younger sister who likes asking me questions whenever she comes back from school.


I began to put all that I learnt into practices and I finally put the image on my website after two weeks.


I learnt that the must important thing I must do to become successful in life is to change the way of looking at things, you must believe in your mind that you are well able to do it.


I started believing in my mind that I can get there even though I don't have want it takes for me to be there, but I believe that I am already there, I must see it with the eyes of my mind, I must dreamed it, I must speak it to my subconscious mind, and I must  work towards it to make it come to reality.

Thank you for reading.

Love,

How darkness can destroy your dreams

 LIFE IN DARKNESS IS DEATH I had this inspiration two weeks ago when I was searching for my phone cable. The cable was in my bag, I searched everywhere in the bag and I couldn't found it because I was  in a dark room. I could remember, I spent much time looking for the cable in a dark room. But the moment I took my bag to where light shone I found  it. What am I trying to tell you, being in darkness can keep you in a particular place for a long time and can kill you before your time. Remember I spent much time searching for my phone cable in a dark room and I was stressed and confused. I believe, I wouldn't have found it if I didn't take it to where light was. Darkness can be ignorance, past mistakes, doubt, fear, unwillingness to learn etc. I will like you to  examine yourself if you are struggling with  all l listed above. Most of our young people are struggling in darkness. So, I charge young people to say no to DARKNESS! Know who you are, what you can do very well and w
