It is true that for every adversity, there are opportunities. When I say that fuel scarcity boosts my productivity, many may quickly think that I am one of those guys carrying Jerry Can selling fuel by the road side at very exorbitant prices. No! The scarcity and the hike in price affected me too. But instead of bemoaning the situation, I quickly realised that I may not be able to do anything about the situation. What I needed was to adjust some things and quickly adapt. See what I did below:

1. Since I cannot afford to put on my generator for a long time the way I used to do, I only put on my generators in the evening time. Firstly, I use my bigger generator to power the pumping machine. When the tank is full, I change to "I-pass-my-neighbour" which consumes less fuel. During this period, I ensure my two laptops are fully charged, ready for wok the following day. Meanwhile, this second laptop has been lying there since except when I need some information from it.

2. Since I don't have all day long to work with the laptops, I simply prioritize my work thereby forcing me to focus on the most important ones. It also forces me to work faster to avoid battery power outage. Surprisingly, the time that seemed not enough for me to perform my tasks now becomes more than enough. This even enables me to do more.

3. I reduce the length of time I stay on the internet. I limit myself to those websites that give me what I need. Do you want to find out the websites: Here are my list and the reasons for my choice

a. www.nairaland.com: I choose this website as it keeps me updated about the current situation in Nigeria. Though some subjects may not be important to me but I know where to get what I need on the site. Every vital happening in Nigeria is just at a click to be get updated.
b. www.businessinfohub.com. I read business articles a lot. Since I don't have time to start searching or browsing various websites, I go directly to this website because from there, I can choose from tons of articles which are curated from various top websites on small business and entrepreneurship in general. They do the search for me, then I read.

That has been my experience so far! You can share your own experience for other people to read.

It's actually a blessing in disguise
