Have you wondered why companies like NLNG, AGIP, and other big multinationals spend a lot of resources on protecting and safeguarding their senior staff? It's basically because they've invested a lot into training and equipping them with updated knowledge that makes them a valuable asset to the company. They understand how important investing in their staff is and so they would normally send them for regular seminars, workshops, and symposiums just to increase their staff value.
As a person, this is also a very important area we shouldn't neglect regardless of how pressing our expenses are. Occasionally, we must take basic courses on effective communication, public speaking, good writing skills, the art of networking, and lots of others including advanced courses that relate to the field we are into. With the Advent of AI and other powerful technology, to remain relevant in your workplace demands you to become intentional about how much time you invest into yourself.
I know we are bitcoinner and by our niche, our discussions have always revolved around investing in Bitcoin using the best strategies possible but while we do this it's necessary we set out a portion of our earnings into paying for courses and seminars that will keep us updated with the relevant skills both in our workplace and in the society. Good enough, we've got online learning platforms like Coursera, edX, udemy, SkillShare, etc which we can register and improve ourselves in the comfort of our homes by paying a small amount
merely following up on conversations in the forum, has gone a long way to improve my knowledge of the crypto ecosystem and you can be sure that if you take investing in yourself seriously, you will always be found relevant and regardless of the need to lay off workers in your workplace, you won't have a course to fear.
My brother you don talk am finish, this thread quality too much. No be just even on academic aspect alone. Anything wey you decide to do for this life and you carry am serious you must excel. Make I bring example wey happen to me back in my secondary school days, I been de Jss 3 then, so my result de always de around average so I needed to improve, I wanted to improve because my popsy say if I carry between 1-5 him go buy me bicycle. So them get this boy wey de always carry between 1-3 for my class, so I reason am say if I wan carry between 1-5 I need to make am my friend so we go de do things together and I go know how him take de do am to de carry that number.
To be sincere I been think say the boy sabi book naturally, but as I start de waka with de boy I come know say no be small read this boy de read everyday. We de close around 1pm, from there this boy go enter extra moral lessons around 2pm come close around 4pm, then him go enter houx, again later that same day for night this boy de do night lesson for one hour for night 8pm-9pm na more like revision of Watin dem teach us that day for school. So just imagine a teenage boy putting in all these work in secondary school how em no go excel. Honestly my parent no fit afford extra moral lesson, so I was decide say I go de do revision by myself for night and anywhere wey I no understand I go call my brother or mom make dem help me out, I did this truout that term and my result at de end of the term Improved so much, I no see between 1-5 carry but I carry 7th that term, then I come get to know say if u put in extra work for anything wey you de do you must de ahead of others.
So in life, if you de into anything serious, try de put in extra work, research further, make enquires and believe me you will excel so much further. There is a popular saying which goes “ anything that is worth doing is worth doing well” so always try to build yourself, make yourself worthy and you will see how important you will be in the society. So once again this thread is so much educative. So put it to yourself today and say whatever I’m doing today I will make my self more better and see where you will be in the next few years.
