Why Are Degree Holders Poor?

 Picture of a jobless man.   Recently,  I  came across a post on whatsapp which i think that I should share with every youth and young adults.  It was written by Gbenga Adeba Gambo( The Guardian Newspaper ) “If somebody offers you an amazing opportunity, but you are not sure you can do it, say yes- then learn how to do it later!”- Richard Branson SCHOOL rewards people for their memory. Life rewards people for their creativity and ability to solve problems. School rewards caution, life rewards daring. School hails those who live by the rules, life exalts those who break the rules and set new ones. Being top of your class does not necessarily guarantee that you would be at the top of life. The world is filled with poor graduates, but rich opportunists. Kevin Ngo said: “If you don’t make the time to work on creating the life you want, you are eventually going to be forced to spend a lot of time dealing with a life you don’t want.” Your certifica...

KIMBERLY FINAL PART!

(Continued form the previous part)  Kim's dream comes true.  Kim smiled. “I have decided to go back school” “That is a good news but like I said you don’t have to….” “I want to” Kim said firmly “He is right, if I don’t do it now, I may never have the opportunity to do it.” “So are you still pursuing the dream of becoming a lawyer?” Mr. Smith asked with smiles, he was happy that Kim had finally seen the reason why she should go to school. “Not anymore, I have a better plan now” “And that is?” Mr. and Mrs. Smiths asked simultaneously. “I want to become a doctor. There are many sicknesses and diseases that medicine had not been able to understand or cure. The world needs a super human to provide solutions to these problems and that will be me!” Though she did not say more than that, yet the three of them perfectly understood what she meant.   Two ripe tears stood at the corners of Mr. Smith’s eyes and he flicked them away. Mrs. Smith pressed her li...

KIMBERLY PART TWELVE.

(Continued from the previous part)  Little Angela.  “She needs special care and attention. Many people are psychiatrist patients without even knowing it. In our country, we think everyone who goes to a psychiatrist hospital is insane or mad but that is a wrong perspective of things; everyone needs to do a regular psychiatrist checkup. Why do some people get extremely mad at other people at the slightest provocation? It is because their brains have been carrying too much load and they are so pent up to the extent that a slightest touch can trigger an explosion. As for your mother, you have not been here at those times when she has fits of mental disorder; your opinion would have been a lot different” “Oh” Kim said dejectedly. “However, your mother’s mental breakdown took a positive dimension. Did you perhaps notice those beautiful pictures on the walls?” “They are everywhere such that it is impossible to miss them” Angela said. “Those are your mother’s works…”...

KIMBERLY PART 11.

Kim visited Mrs Smith at the home.  (Continued from the previous part). “I am Adams, you may not remember me because it has been how many years now? Four years I guess because you were still around nine years old the last time we met. A lot of things had happened in between as well” he said. “I am sorry, that name did not ring a bell” she said apologetically. “No problem, perhaps you remember my good friend, Smith?” “Mr. Smith?! Of course I remember him, how could I ever forget him?” “Good. He was my golf partner, he still is but I’m afraid he may never play golf again” he said suddenly with sadness as if speaking to himself. Kim wanted to ask what he meant but he had quickly moved on with other things “You were involved in a vehicle accident today and it was just God that made me to be passing by so when it happened, I waited to offer help, not knowing who was injured but I was shocked when I found you in a pool of blood on the road. The bus driver ran in the midd...
