Your individual skill is your source of wealth and a sure bet of being known worldwide. Its better you practice what you are good at, especially ur INDIVIDUAL SKILLS/TALENT, if that opportunity opens up to u though and if u have one anyway but you should have one, just rediscover yourself and check yourself thoroughly, because everyone is born special with one or more inherent skills. Because even the degree(s) that u earned in school is meant to enhance, brighten & sharpen your inherent skill(s), its not compulsory you practice what you studied, it MIGHT not even take you to your dreamed anticipated peak. Afterall most famous people of this world, did, practiced & pursued what they knew how to do best & it fetched them million of dollars, those people ain't better than us when they were at dis youthful days of ours I can tell u, all they did was to harness their talent and did what is known as practice & repetition inorder to master it and make it an habit. Let's harness ours too cos if you don't build your dreams/goals, someone or people will hire you to build theirs.
Pls tell me how soon you are going to save a million dollar and worth like a meagre two million dollars if you take up a governent job or worked for the so called oil companies? Even some of us didn't fill d course we did in school back then, we jst landed there. If you know you can preach, don't wait endlessly for God to call you before you start your ministry, forget it, he has called you already, its u that has turned a deaf ear to him, don't u know? The bible even said it in Proverb 18 vs 16 that "A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men" There is a saying that "all fingers are not equal" but don't allow yours to be short. Your talent is easy to learn & easy to do for you, you learned it so easily & do it so naturally that you almost forget when and how you learned it in the first place. This is where you are the most likely to do the best job, get the best results, and to be paid the very best. Its not that am discouraging peeps not to practice wot they did in school, am just talking from my generall view of LIFE . Who knows, your course could be your talent too taking you beyond limits and could take you to any level you might think of. Make your passion your work then work will become play. I know everything in this life is vanity, but we should not just come to this world & go like that without impacting & been felt. Some people would die, even d whole of their street wont know whether they are dead or not because they ain't aware of their existence either, while some people would die and the whole world would hear and sober for them. U'll live an average person life your entire life if you don't harness your talent or don't couple more than an extra thing with that thing called degree (s) that u re holding. Please let's widen our horizon, be ourself, be original & definitely the sky would be our starting point & not our limit.

Frontpage is not my priority, its just a compliment if my works go there. My priority is that a reasonable people should grasp my writing, if that can be achieved in this section, then am satisfied

Write down ur lyrics, then go to a recording studio & produce ur song. If u want to publish a book, take ur manuscript to a publisher or a printing press, then ur works can come out as a book
