Hello everyone, i need your advise about a step I’m about to take

I’m a university graduate from one of the top Federal Universities in the country, my field of study is related to agriculture and since I finished school about 6 years ago all the jobs I’ve been getting isn’t really paying enough, they are mostly farm jobs paying 30-35k at most, I’ve considered setting up myself but tbh I have no back bone and it isn’t easy.

I’m 28 and I’ll be 29 this year then I decided I’ll really need to learn a skill if I want to be relevant in the society because sooner or later I’ll start considering settling down and all.

I tried learning tech stuffs but I have to be honest to myself I’m not a tech person, I try forcing it but no be my way, it’s better to be honest with myself, I’m not the kind of person that likes sitting down staring at screens for long even my phone.

I’m a natural handy person, that’s one of the things made me go to that field of study in school(Agriculture), I learnt a bit aspect of the tech which I enjoy to an extent that is drone piloting but I don’t think that is something I should sit with.

So I’m thinking of learning an handy skill which is why I need your advise, I’m passionate about painting, infact I’m good with it and it’s all self thought but I’l don’t want to go into it full time because I’m scared of height, so I’m considering learning POP and house interior which I’ve taken a step to start learning. I

nfact I have the money to pay and I’ve gotten someone to start teaching me already, why I opt for POP is I like the job and it’s an handy work plus Real estate is booming so skill related to real estate should be a hot cake at the moment.

I’m going in full time to learn and im ready for the adventure, because to be honest with ourselves if I keep saying I will land a good paying job due to my certificate and All,.

I might just keep waiting and might not move forward and time waits for nobody.

So Nairalanders I need your advise or your opinion do you think I should take this step? , do you think I’m making the right decision?

Thank you

That guy is right, stop supporting lack of focus.

There is difference between seeking for advice on which handwork to choose among the ones you are planning on choosing OR any new suggestions, and asking people what to do with your life at his age and level of education.

Since you are a graduate, you have the capacity to learn more than 1 skill. Learn Pop, plumbing, electrical wiring, iron works, security systems, carpentry etc. You wont be the one doing the menial jobs when you are hired, you will acquire trainees. You can achieve all the learning under one year. Builders prefer workers that has multiple skills. Be ready to pay to learn if you want to achieve them in good time.

Go ahead and learn the POP since you have passion for it, your passion for it will make you to be creative in it and be unique.

Time waits for no 1 so stop procrastinating and take the step now.

Painting isn't bad too cuz people around you can also give you job.

You want other people's view so that what will happen exactly?

Go and man up and take responsibility of your life. Some of the people you seek their view here cannot equate their lives with yours so why do you need their approval?

Guys like you will hardly live their lives, they will end up living people's opinion and when it's too late end up regretting.

Be in charge of your life and take the responsibility whatever be the consequence.

If you had asked between XYZ skills which one to learn I will understand not if you should go and learn a skill. Who does that?
What a comment. Bless you! grin

Go ahead bro, learning a skill na hin sure pass. At least no one is taking your degree from you.
You use the knowledge you gained from school to be a more successful handy person.
I have relatives who are graduates without a job and unwilling to learn a trade.
I love auto mechanic and barbing

As someone who has been exactly through what you are facing at same age bracket and into the real estate. I will strongly advice you to go onto that POP your heart is telling you about. POP contract can make you comfortable. The two others are tilling, weldering of doors and gates(you learn borehole stand installation, hand and front rail installation etc).

Goodluck bro
