PROCRASTINATION

Millions of people worldwide today are not aware of this dangerous parasite, ‘procrastination’ that attaches itself to mankind and yet everybody keeps on going on business as usual.
As a result of this, procrastination operates so silently and smoothly that no one notices it until it chokes life out of its victim.
Procrastination comes from a Latin word called procratinato which in effect means putting off or delaying action particularly on things that require urgent action or attention.
A person can be in a state of procrastination if he is infected with the disease named ‘I WILL DO IT LATER’.
He is being deceived that there will always be another time, though the present time is not being judiciously utilized.
In another sense, procrastination can be called the ‘THIEF OF TIME’ meaning the time for the postponed work has been stolen and for the work to be done, the time for another thing has to be utilized for it.
Procrastination in its ordinary sense seems to be harmless but it is rather unfortunate that countless numbers all over the world are groaning under its yoke. There is always an imagination that the mind of a person constructs if he wants to find an excuse for not doing a particular thing at a particular time.
This imagination simply gives him a strong assurance of doing it another time but forgetting the fact that the postponed time can only be trusted if the will of God tallies with his over that particular issue.
Come to think of it, procrastination has made millions of ideas, plans, visions and dreams go down the drain and ending up its victims in various cemeteries across the globe but for the fact that it is the final resting place of great but unactualised dreams.
That is, dreams that never came to reality. It would also interest you that the best brains, multinational business empires, the sleekest car inventors, the best children ever are been housed in millions of cemeteries all over the world.
The time to really launch out into something worthwhile is now, and not tomorrow or day after.
Reason being that dreams and plans are time compliant and if immediate steps are not carried out, it just dies down or blow away like the scent of a smoke.

Little did he know that some day he would be rewarded for this act of thankfullness.

DO NOT FOLLOW THE CROWD

This picture just narrates how you should set your mind.

TURN PASSION TO MONEY.

Do you know that the passion you derive in engaging in what you love doing best (i.e. your hobby) could fetch you a life time fortune?

Certainly YES! Typical examples of proudly Nigerian citizens who have turned passion to money are the likes of Gbenga Adeyinka, Alibaba, and Derele to mention a few.

These people have utilized their abilities to make people laugh by cracking rib breaking jokes to establish a hobby made business which in turn is producing much money into their pockets.

It would also amaze you that they are being paid for the service they are rendering out of passion. It’s a life time investment these people have established by using comedy to earn a living.

Also, take a look at the soccer world, so many Nigerian footballers such as Okocha, Joseph Yobo, Mikel Obi to mention a few are earning a fortune both home and abroad by just utilizing their passion for football playing.

Though football is full of a skill which has to be acquired through constant practice, you’ve got to posses the passion before you can actually build on the skills.

Another instance of hobbyist who has turned passion to money is U.A.C FOODS. The initiator of this company must have derived a passion for baking or cooking. And by sharing his ideas with like minds of his, and working with a team having a focus, the company came to reality.

Come to think of it, hardly would you go anywhere without finding the company’s products and they are being patronized well.

A life time income is being realized daily by the initiator of the company by just utilizing the passion for baking or cooking and further on building on an idea to establishing a company to that effect.

The mind blowing issue about this hobby turned business is that it gives room for helping others in the sense that it brings employment opportunities for others.

Taking U.A.C. FOODS for instance, for the mass production of its products, it needs various capable hands to really reach its targets and finally its consumers.

So, the employment of capable hands to bring out the desired result would be highly needed.

On a final note, as a youth or other people that derive passion in engaging in activities they love doing at leisure times or just find themselves doing that particular thing severally should endeavour to build on it because it might not only generate a means of income to you when the white collar jobs keep far distance from you but could also create avenue for job seekers to get jobs when the passion to write, sing, dance, do business, make designs, make arts and crafts, plait hair(plaiting), cut hair(barbing), make repairs of spoilt items, to mention a few has been realized to its fullest where more hands would be needed to strengthen its effectiveness.
