SHOW UP AND TAKE ACTION!!!




Immediately after my National Youth Service, as a young graduate still seeking relevance, a friend added me to a group "Valuex" Valuex is a platform where information is exchanged through lecture delivery and quality content sharing.

So, I started delivering lecture on this platform and there was a time, we were to choose from a wide range of topics. I couldn't choose from any topic and there was this topic, which people fail to pick. "Thriving as a start up" with little or no knowledge about entrepreneurship. I took the topic, using the knowledge I garnered from the Young African Leadership Initiative online courses and my experience as an associate of the chartered institute of customers relationship management.

I delivered a top notch lecture and I got an invitation to speak at the Federal School of Statistics, Ibadan on the same topic.

Lessons: Show up and take action. Somehow, someone is watching somewhere.

Show up!
Learn!
Prepare! Opportunities meet preparedness!
Create relevant content and seek relevance!

Have you checked, how that, when you were given a task, be it in school, church, office, firm or even that which you gave yourself? Did you see that, somehow, you felt lackadaisical at first but decided to take the bull by its horn? Now, the ability to do that was resident within, but came alive when you chose to act, this is why you hear words like UNTIL YOU GET STARTED, YOU CAN NOT START. .. .. .. I discovered that I understood something's about myself when I was given a responsibility in an N.G.O and accepted it. Just like you, I hesitated but until today, that has been a major factor in my growth. My NETWORK grew as well my NET WORTH. Lets say for instance, you are asked to be part of an Editorial Committee, you finally accepted, then along the line, you discovered ...
