This Is Why You Are Not Getting Opportunities

  THIS IS WHY YOU ARE NOT GETTING OPPORTUNITIES  Written By Edirin Edewor It is not your village people. Your environment determines the kind of opportunities you will get, and to the degree in which you will get these opportunities. Your environment doesn't have to only be your physical geography. It could be the people you hang out with or the kind of experiences you immerse yourself in.  There are certain opportunities you can never get unless you're in a particular city, state or country.  There are certain opportunities you will not be able to take advantage of if you don't have a passport or a valid visa.  There are certain opportunities you will have to turn down because your business isn't yet registered and/or you don't have a corporate account.  There are jobs you will not be able to take on because you have refused to open a Domiciliary account.  There are conversations you will never be able to be a part of because you are not physically pr...

The Dynamics Of Product And Service Delivery!

Image
  THE DYNAMICS OF PRODUCT AND SERVICE DELIVERY! Written By Wisdom Alexander, Content Creator/Trainer There are three important indicators that goes a long way to show if your product or service will enjoy maximum attention and patronages. 1. QUALITY I learnt from a logistician sometime ago, that the quality of a product is measured by how long it stays on the production line in order to meet customer's needs and expectations. And the longer it stays on the production line, the higher the value it generates. Masterpieces always takes time! Therefore, take your time and look for the necessary ingredients that will enhance the quality of your product or service by making it outstanding. The price value of any product or service  can be  inarguably fixed beyond any marketable differences, once the quality is top-notch! 2. EFFECTIVENESS. How effective is your product or service? What's the level of satisfaction it can deliver to your customers? Were your product or service pot...

You're Losing Potential Clients If You Don't Know This As A Content Writer.

Image
Written By Olamide Akinde YOU'RE LOSING POTENTIAL CLIENTS IF YOU DON'T KNOW THIS AS A CONTENT WRITER. I value your time so I will try as much as possible to go straight to the point but before that, let me quickly remind you what a content is.  Content can be defined as written ideas or information jotted down by a writer for the purpose of educating or entertaining specific people who are known as target audience. The word content and the definition given above might not be new to you but the key thing I want to call your attention to is "the target audience."  As a content writer especially newbies, it is often advised that content marketing is essential  for  the purpose of increasing self-visibility in the global market. While having this in mind, you should not be ignorant of the fact that you need to thoroughly select your audience even before thinking of what type of  content you want to write. The reason is that your audience varies so as their needs.Th...

Move Towards Your Attraction

Image
  MOVE TOWARDS YOUR ATTRACTION❗ Written By Prisca Dera  Content Writer, Life/Relationship Coach, Accountability Coach I know I'm someone that gets attracted to intelligence. Stupidity is what I hate, like it pushes me away. Imagine just going for anything, it will make me frustrated and i will just leave. This is because I know me, what I can take and what I can't. I remember being a victim of that. I remember someone I met some time ago. Actually, at that time I recovered from a hurt so it now seemed I was free and also i just wanted someone around. That was how I met this guy and we were going. I actually found out we weren't thinking on the same page and asides that, the fact he was slow and his intelligence ratio was low. At some point, I started asking myself what I attracted me and I discovered nothing. I started acting anyhow and that was it. You see attraction, it's really necessary in your relationship/marriage. Not just looks but what attracted you. This is wh...

The 411 Of Growth

 THE 411 OF GROWTH   Written By Kaine Chinedu Take a deep breath and think of the good old day's when you were young and in secondary school/university. Now how did you feel when the same class/course mates with whom you receive lectures under the same learning environment  and condition had better grades than  you ? If you're being honest with yourself ,you probably felt jealous ,right?  ... Well I did too. But , do you know that what really matters is how you're able to turn that feeling of jealousy into one of curiosity ,so that you get better grades? See ehn... You see that feeling of jealousy , it's not you actually being jealous oh. Do you know what it is?  It's simply your curious mind wanting to know how your course mates do what they do and how they do it. In essence, you just wanted to know their secrets.  I'm sure you're probably saying to yourself ; " Chinedu where are you heading to with all this?" Just stick with me and you did find o...

Harnessing Your Mental Abilities

HARNESSING YOUR MENTAL ABILITIES! Written By Wisdom Alexander,  Writer/Trainer Your thoughts are like magnet. It has the power to attract the material equivalent that exist all around you. Robert Collier once stated that: ' Every form is presupposed by a directed intelligence' Do you know what that means? Alright,  just stay with me as I explain briefly. If you spend enough time thinking about something of value, gradually that particular thing you're thinking about will start taking form on the outside. For example, if you're thinking about how to start a business  or how to please your spouse more dearly. Everything around you will start responding to that  thought. The material resources you'll need to serve that thought will start gravitating towards you unknowingly. Your thoughts are directed intelligence, if only you will take time to think  intelligently and reflectively! Your thoughts are like laser beam. If you direct it long enough on a particular area...

This Is Why You Should Give Out Knowledge

Image
  THIS IS WHY YOU SHOULD GIVE OUT KNOWLEDGE Written By Ikedi Jedice  Some posts ago, I mentioned how one should have superior knowledge, but what gain is that knowledge of you don't apply, monetize it or share it to the world. Sometimes I see people hoard knowledge, BUT WHY? My mentor, Sir Heaven Umunna said something and I paraphrase "there are books that your mentors won't give you access to easily but my concern is not about the book but the fact that it was someone who wrote that book" So while you feel like that special book  in your library is for you alone and won't be shared, you must also remind yourself that if the author of that book thought like that, that book won't be in your library. There is a place for not "throwing pearls before swine, lest they trample on it" (I speak in proverbs) But I want us to imagine a scenario. Scripture tells us that one time in Jesus life, He asked questions in the temple. Now imagine if those teachers hoar...

Are You Entitled To Those Things People Give To You For Free?

Image
  "ARE YOU REALLY ENTITLED TO THOSE THINGS PEOPLE GIVE TO YOU FOR FREE?" Written By Joseph Adeleke,  Your Personal Development Coach There is this feeling of entitlement we all have. We feel some people in our lives should do this or that for us because it is important for them to do it for us. We feel we deserve better from them and if we don't get those things, we feel so bad about it and feel those people are terrible. I had that feeling of entitlement towards my father for a long time that I felt it was his duty to take care of my every need. I needed him to attend to every need I presented at his table. It was many years later I listened to a message by Apostle Joshua Selman Nimmak that changed my thinking. According to Apostle Joshua Selman, if you get things from your parents when you are 18 and above, you are lucky. At that age you should start thinking of what you can do for yourself and reduce the expectations you have from them. So many years ago I was in a rel...

Ideas And Concept!

Image
  IDEAS AND CONCEPT! Written By Wisdom Alexander, Writer/Trainer. One thing that sells much faster than anything else in this technology-driven society is ideas and concept! You cannot underestimate the importance of building a concept for that particular business idea you have at the moment. Let me give you a simple biblical illustration to drive home this point: God gave Adam the privilege of naming the various animals that was ever created on the earth. Undoubtedly, the original idea for creating those animals was actually from God.  But God appointed Adam to build a concept for that creative idea by calling those animals by a specific name that everyone can relate with. And whatever Adam calls those animals was what they automatically represented in the eyes of society! Every successful company or individual have a name coined in specific words or languages by which they're called and known for. In otherwords, these companies or individuals have successfully designed a con...

Learning Is Very Important

Image
  LEARNING IS VERY IMPORTANT  Written By Mercy Andrew No, it does not as far as what you gain will improve you. When I began my content writing classes, I kept following my coach's updates. They were all excellent, challenging and encouraging. But the one that captured my mind most was, she posted about a 15-year-old boy who has and is still doing well in the writing field. I then wondered why my coach is looking up to this small boy and wanting to get to his position and even more. Is this not surprising? Imagine your teacher/ lecturer wanting to be like a 15-year-old boy in his field or career. Now, it is a clash of your field and age. You are neither gonna drop your age and go after the younger person that has more than you have  Or, you will keep your age glue to pride and ego and remain the way you are. If the 15, 16, 20...year old boy/girl from your field knows and understand it better than you do, it is never a crime to go learn under them. Gone are the days where ...

However, there were ups and down which shaped me into who I am today. Sometimes you won't appreciate the success of an entrepreneur until you go back to history and read about his story. I have done a lot of things including MISTAKES which of course I am grateful they were made. Seeing the areas where improvement have been made intentionally gives me the peace of mind that MISTAKES are tools for either rebuilding your story or destroying your future. The choice is yours to make. When we hear making money online, what comes to your mind are disorganized information scattered around YouTube, Google, Facebook  and so on. Do you know why? Eve...

 How To Get What You Want Out Of Life  Written By Leon Ho  CEO For Lifehack  Have you ever heard someone say that "Your network is your net-worth"? It's a cliche at this point, and it's cheesy as well... But it's true. The people you surround yourself with are going to determine the quality of your life. If you're surrounded by successful people, you're more likely to be successful, and the same is true in the opposite case. That's why I've paid so much attention to relationships in my life. But I wasn't always good at it. In fact, for most of my life, I found it hard to meet new people and make friends. I had a few close friends and that was it. However, when I finished college, I decided I have to become better at networking if I wanted to stand out among other software developers. I couldn't compete on my technical knowledge. Especially not in the long run. There will always be some kid in his late teens or early twenties who's just ...
