Lesson from my inbox - #appswheelReflection
Are you familiar with the small mail icon (envelope) that blinks on your phones screen whenever your message inbox is full?
What does it teach you? What do you do when it happens?
You scroll through your inbox, deleting messages you consider irrelevant. Knowing well that new messages will not drop if you don’t make space for them.

One way to keep your inbox free is to delete irrelevant messages as soon as you get them. No thanks to our telecommunication service providers who continue to send irrelevant messages day in, day out.

What kind of friends or relationship do you keep? There is no good in keeping bad company, the consequence is grave. Like your phones inbox, they will keep out the potential good that you should come your way. Therefore, weed out bad friends from your “life box” as soon as you detect them.

What kind of thoughts do you nurse in your heart? Many are ill because of the thoughts they keep. Your thoughts have a way of affecting your health. Keep your mind free of negative thoughts.

Fill it with good and honourable thoughts - be happy (remember the song….. uh uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh uh………. Don’t worry be happy……..?).

A LITTLE LESS ABOUT THE PROBLEMS,TRY OUT MORE POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS.
Truthfully, I’m not a writer, in fact I have never written any publishable article in my life, I guess this would be my first. But I just thought I address one recurring issue which I find amongst my age group and my peers. An issue that I have heard so much about on the news, radio, on peoples lips that I can’t seem to escape it. And so I said to myself, let me address this thing once and for all before it engulfs me. Who knows, my son or daughter might just get to read this one day and I hope it will be of value to you as I am sure it will be of value to them.

Let me ask you this question, and before you answer I advice that you take some quality time out of your all so busy life to think about it with candour. Perhaps you have been the head of the Human resource department of one of the foremost banks in Nigeria for the past 25 years and you have interviewed countless graduates and aspiring employees, or maybe you just got employed as a graduate engineer, accountant or botanist at a very respectable firm (assumption here is that the firm’s line of business is parallel to what you read in school-good for you isn’t it?) or perhaps you self-started an aluminium producing factory or a public relations firm and you have been successfully running it for the past 35 years with Julius Ceaser type profits, or maybe you just graduated and you have been applying for jobs online and attending interviews weekly/monthly, or you might even still be in school (secondary, university or even primary) as you read this article right now. So my question to those who have a degree is this...would you be doing what you’re doing right now any less competent if you didn’t have that degree? Or has the acquisition of that degree been the sole reason for your level of competence, knowledge and delivery since the day you were employed or you started up that firm/business till date.

As a graduate, or as someone who just recently gained employment, my question to you is this...has your degree been of real value to you or was it a password, coupled with your NYSC discharge certificate, the minimum requirement you needed to be invited to an interview for a job that you might not even use the knowledge gained in the 4, 5, 6 or more years of your tertiary and/or formal post graduate education. Interesting isn’t it? our reaction as humans when we are confronted with nail biting facts or opinions that might or might not bend our pride a little bit. But the fact is, you have nothing to worry about since you’re probably the only one with your eyes glued to this article reading it right now and I don’t even know you - although I wish I could, the logical conclusion would be that, it wouldn’t hurt to be truthful to yourself this time around because I promise you that you will leave the last full stop of this article with your pride and ego intact, irrespective of the revelations you find here to be true or false. So in your answers to my questions and in your thoughts, I suggest ”QUISQUE SIBI VERUS” - to thine own self be true.

Well, I guess the question on your mind is, where is this guy going with this? or perhaps, what gives him the temerity to question if my hard earned degree at whatever level has been of value to my life, and then you would instinctively tell yourself, of course it has...well, I guess it has, because it enabled me get this job and a whole lot of other benefits that accrue to me right now on my job as well as the respect I gained once I demonstrated that I was brainy and financially buoyant enough to apply for and come out with a first degree, a maters degree or even a doctorate degree.

The level of unemployment in Nigeria and even the world over is no longer news, and that is not what this article seeks to address. But this bane of unemployment seems to be hard felt in Nigeria, perhaps because we as Nigerians sing about it at the slightest opportunity a little more frequently and aggressively than the average earthling does. And in case you haven’t noticed, most of the wonderful policies being rolled out by our ever loving and capable government at all levels are aimed at poverty eradication and the reduction of unemployment...bla...bla...bla...as we hear on the news and read in the papers almost every God given day in our dear country Nigeria. But I was thinking, and I may be wrong, that if out of, say, the past 50 years of our existence as a nation, we have been trying to eradicate poverty and unemployment using the same means which obviously aren’t working, then doesn’t it mean someone isn’t learning? or perhaps this poverty and unemployment is so engrained in our system that it just doesn’t seem to want to go away. Or perhaps, someone isn’t really trying to eradicate it or could it be that we’ve been programmed not to see that the well meaning policies targeted at solving the problem don’t seem to be solving the problem? Or wait, maybe we all just don’t care...in fact, I’m guessing this option should have come first. So yes, we just don’t care as far as myself and mine are well catered for and gainfully employed, then to hell with the herd.

Oh my, we seem to have deviated a bit, and since I’m a lover of music, for obvious reasons, in the voice of wizkid...”back to the matter”.

So what is the matter? The matter is this...this one question that at some point or the other, must have crossed your quiet and pondering mind. IS HIGHER EDUCATION STILL A GOOD INVESTMENT?

This question seems necessary at this point in our development as a nation and as individuals because a lot of people feel cheated and lied to when they were promised by mummy and daddy or uncles and aunties, or a higher authority in their lives that, once you go to school, don’t worry, you are sure of a bright future with the kind of car I’m driving or even better, a big house, a wife or husband that will love and respect you and a whole lot of kids to play around with, not to talk of the plenty money that you will have. So concentrate on school ok?

It might be worthy of your notice that the question just asked could have been painted in various ways to make it seem less stupid that you think it sounds, but I believe that the simplest form of a thing gives us the most value as humans and that’s why the food we take in has to be broken down into its simplest form for it to be of value to us.

So it wouldn’t be wrong for us to ask that question now would it? Especially as Nigerians.

I just heard on the news this morning that there is now a forum of unemployed graduates, and I thought to myself, if I were the one who started such a forum or if I were to be a part of this forum, what would our main objectives be? Let’s see...
1. Maybe to pressure the government as a group into creating more employment opportunities for the seemingly growing number of self acclaimed unemployed graduates?
2. Or maybe to gather a group of people in the same situation in which I am so that we can sympathise with one another as of course, we would best understand the situation we are in like no one else would.
3. Or could it be to direct ourselves to the latest job vacancies being posted in newspapers, on job websites, BBM, twitter ,2go, facebook, eskimi, and the list goes on.
4. Perhaps to sit and brainstorm on ways to make ourselves employable by looking out for the skills employers need and trying to see how we can get those skills.
5. Or Perhaps to see how we can pull knowledge and resources together and start up a business in order to provide a service and then receive pay in return for that service.
6. At this point, I guess I’ll leave you to come up with other possible (positive) objectives of such a forum...please be creative.
So, is it just me, or why do I have a feeling that such a forum would be less likely to focus on options 4, 5 and 6 and would be more likely to pour themselves-body, mind and soul- into options 1, 2 and 3.

My question most times is this, is it that through out your years in the university, you were never able to identify a particular skill, or set of skills that you can put to use legitimately -without having first sat in front of an interviewer or a panel of interviewers- in exchange for money?

Or is it that you’re not as lucky, well spoken or as rich as the guy/lady who started the company or group of companies you are presently applying to. What if he/she never started that company, would you be applying to become an employee today?

Or maybe you just don’t like the faces of those at the Corporate Affairs Commission(CAC) where it would take a less amount of money, risk and stress to register a business, than you presently spend on travelling from one state to another day-in day-out, month-in month-out, believing that one day God will reward your “Hustle”.

Why has thinking, self-evaluation, courage, determination and the ability to listen to the voice inside you, so much eluded us as Nigerian Graduates? WHY? WHY? WHY?

All those companies out there, what are they doing that makes them so successful? They are providing a service or perhaps selling a product. What makes you feel you would be any less successful if you choose to provide a service and not be serviced. And now you’re saying “I’ve heard that before” right? From each and every one of the countless motivational speakers and mentors whose books you have read and seminars you have attended. Reading books and attending seminars and getting that degree that qualified you to bear the name “graduate”, all that is called “knowledge”. The question is, where is the “action”? let me state it here categorically that your education was not meant for knowledge, education is meant for action. Attend all the schools you want, read all the books you can place your hands on, attend all the seminars you can afford -seminars that those who have read the same books you read are moving on to the action part by organising - all that is of NO USE if you never put it to use, If you never take action, take initiative, take responsibility for your own life. Even the Bible says “Faith without works is dead”. I guess I’ll have to ask one of my Muslim friends what the Quran has to say about this.

Lets go through some questions I’ve been asked by some graduates,
Questions : na paper them dey take start business abi? Abi you wan give me money make I start business?
My answer : Why on earth would I give an individual money to start a business when you haven’t shown me what you can do.
Other reasons of in-action are

NO CAPITAL
The idea I have needs a lot of money to lift off.
And so on......
Let us imagine for a moment-don’t forget, its an imagination o!- that you never had the opportunity to get a degree and be called a graduate. Does that mean you would die jobless and broke? Or would you fight and struggle against all the odds to still make a life out of your life, like so many people around you in the same environment as you, are doing and more in the future will still do legitimately.

I believe its high time we as Nigerian Graduates spoke a little less about the problems which obviously isn’t getting us anywhere and spent our lives trying out various solutions. Comrades, I didn’t say you should think or talk about solutions but to try out solutions. If trying out solutions were your aim, then thinking about possible solutions would not be a matter of choice but a MUST. But if you spent all your time thinking, you might just one day, choose to think no more, putting you farther away from ever trying.

I hope I’m not beginning to sound like a motivational speaker because I am not, and besides, if you wait for someone to motivate you in this day and age, then my brothers and sisters, like we say in pidgin english, ”you go old”.
Doubts and fear are natural, we all doubt our abilities, we all have one phobia or the other, but don’t let those intangibles keep you from making something tangible out of your life.

At the beginning of this article, I asked a question about the number of us who are actually putting our degrees to use on our present jobs. Not a lot I must tell you, ok, maybe a lot but definitely not all. A degree just shows the world that you are trainable, that you have the capacity to learn, to set your mind on something and achieve it. Transfer that skill, zeal and determination you put into getting that degree especially in a country like Nigeria into your post graduate life. If we don’t push ourselves to the limit, how will we ever know how far we can go? If we never start something, then how are we to make that thing.

Job seekers say, they want so so and so years of experience, but if they don’t employ us, how are we to get the experience? Oga and madam, let’s do a reality check, do you think the recruiters really care about how you get your experience? All they want to know is, will he/she help us make more money?

Nobody takes for granted a man/woman who will help them make more money.

Permit me, my people, na naija we dey. We are Nigerians. No be we talk say “any way is a way”?
Make we no do am anyway, make we do am the right way...think about the right things, say the right things. If we wait make the money arrange all before we start our business, we no go ever start. Start where you are, start small with what you have. It is when you start that you can make money to make more money. And frankly, I’m only talking about money here because that seems to be our only definition of success today. How much do you have? Who is your god father?

If you maintain that getting your degree was not easy then don’t think that life after that degree will be any easier if you don’t try to make it easier. We spend way too much time talking and far too little
time doing. That’s why I’m even considering a career in radio presenting. All we keep hearing is how hard and bad it is, we have fed ourselves that information for so long that it has become our reality.

I just wish I were talking to you face – to – face, so you could see how much this Nigerian topic that seems to be on all our lips thereby keeping us from doing the good we have to do, has made us a nation where “man is so unkind to mankind” like Tuface said.
Its becoming more like the only way to solve the unemployment saga in this country is to actually start sharing wads of any denomination of the Nigerian currency hand-to-hand because that, I’m thinking, will calm people down for a while to do some thinking, not about how to solve the problem which is still staring at us in the face, but thinking about what to spend the money on.

Ladies and gentlemen, silver or gold I do not have, but what I know is that, if we must turn this country around, we must first begin with ourselves, but yet again, we have heard this before. So does it mean that words are beginning to lose their value? or like I said, there’s just too much talking and no doing. Comrades, let us use the most important muscle in our bodies- our brains- to think solutions and not problems, and when you have found a solution, overcome that fear and doubt by taking action. “NON LOQUI SED FACERE”- NOT TALK BUT ACTION. Imagine if the director of a movie would never shout ACTION! would a movie ever be produced? In the same way, shout to yourself, cry to yourself, plead with yourself to take action, positive action, and it will be as if things are just lining themselves up in your favour.
Dear comrades, I implore you...”TEMET NOSCE” – KNOW THYSELF.

So for those of you still in school, don’t drop this article until you have decided right here and now, if you want to graduate and add to the statistics of the so called self acclaimed unemployed graduates or are you going to identify that thing you can do and do it so well in service to others and thereby be employed. Because employed or unemployed is really a choice. Employment doesn’t mean nice suits and flashy cars and meetings or an over rated pride combined in fine mix with self-glorification, being employed means you provide a service, you sell value, and you get value in return.

So, a lot has been said and the way I see it, you have two choices, you could drop this article and continue to complain about how bad it is, or you could take action. Either way, it was your choice and you will realise sooner or later that you really cannot blame anyone or any institution or any government for whatever reason, but yourself. Winston Churchill said ”Whether you say you can or you can’t, either way you are right”. Allow me to paraphrase “whether you talk say I fit or I no fit, any which way, na so e go be”.

APPSWHEEL WEB DESIGN QUESTION 2

HOW DOES YOUR WEBSITE REPRESENT YOUR BRAND?

You’ve spent years building your company’s brand and your website needs to be the ultimate representation of it. Your website should not only represent your brand’s position, but also its personality.

A website is one of the most visible elements of a brand’s presence and is a make or breakopportunity to connect with customers. The basics include using the correct color palettes and design elements. But there are also more subtle elements to consider, such as the user experience.

If your site is confusing or frustrating to navigate, then your customer just had a bad experience with your brand. A website’s content (copy) is as important as the graphical design elements. In order to accurately portray your brand, your website’s content must
speak in a tone that accurately represents your brand’s personality. Tone and personality aside, your website must clearly and compellingly state your brand’s value proposition.

You wouldn’t meet clients in a messy office, or do business in a dirty storefront with broken windows. When people visit your website, make sure that their first impression is more like an attractive office, a comfy chair and a hot cup of coffee.

APPSWHEEL WEB DESIGN QUESTIONS

Your website is a tool, not a billboard. It’s a big investment........

This week we shall be sharing 10 questions that will help you establish what kind of website you need. These questions have worked for our clients. They will work for you too.

You know you need a website, but do you know what you
want it to do? How you want it to look? It’s okay if the answer is no.

Today, effective websites must be equipped with content management systems, SEO strategy, conversion rate strategy and much more.

We have built a reputation of exceeding our clients need and delivering professional jobs that meets the industry standard and guarantee return on investment.

QUESTION 1
WHAT ARE YOUR OBJECTIVES?
All good strategies first start with outlining clear, measurable objectives. A new website is an investment and therefore should have an ROI. However, this investment should be made in order to accomplish strategic goals.

The following is not good reason to invest in a new website: It’s the 21st century. Everyone else has a website. We need a new “look”.

Before you can start your web project, you must determine the goals behind your new site or redesign. Your website is a tool, not a billboard. It’s a big investment, and if you’re not putting it to work for you, you’re not maximizing your investment.

Just as you set monthly and yearly projections for your business, you should consider how much you want your website to improve sales, attract prospects, increase website traffic, and boost conversions.

Once you have determined the business goals of your site, we can
help you reach these goals by setting targets for unique site visitors, SEO ranking, domain authority, time on site, and more. stay tuned for question 2

Double your income: Humility Technique.
It is not unusual to think that a humble person is someone with a low opinion of himself or herself. Humility has nothing to do with how lowly we think we are. It has to do with who we know others to be.

As a business person who sell products or provide services; to be humble means to value your customers. If you value your customers, you will ensure to meet and even surpass their expectations.

To be humble in business means to provide superior products and services.

Being humble also mean you value yourself; by this, you create great products and services that are irresistible to your customers.
Go ahead and practice humility in your business. Create unforgettable customer experience for all your clients and watch your client base grow in leaps.

The modern day parents do not have all the time to spare with their children. As I type this entry, thousands of teenagers across the world are accessing the internet without any form of parental guidance. While the internet is not a bad tool; it is important to admit that it has some negative sides.

The subjects of discussion on many social application chat rooms are polluted and are not safe for young children. Ironically, they are the majority on these platforms.

This article seeks to expose parents, guardians and adults to the good they will do society by feeding young minds with the right information, guiding them on the safe use of the internet and other ICT gadgets.

As a young child, I noticed that some newspapers in our home were neatly cut-out. These cut outs were made by mum. She had a habit of running her eyes through newspaper pages and cutting out information she finds valuable for keeps for her unborn, infant child.

Mum read the cuts-out information with me in my teen years. Explaining them in a way a young mind will comprehend. The information mum shared with me has shaped my life greatly and positively too. Let me share some with you.

One was an account of a man who died from a stray bullet. There was pandemonium in his neighborhood, rather than take cover, he choose to have an eye account of the happenings. Unfortunately for him, a bullet caught him on his face. Till date, you will not find me where there is unrest, rowdiness. When there is an upheaval, I either leave that vicinity or take cover.

Another was about two children who fought in school. In the course of their fight, one slumped and died. She warns that fighting is not good as one cannot tell how healthy the other person is. Moreover, she will add, God loves peaceful children.

There is also a story of a 90 years old man who on his 90th birthday looked 60. People where curious to know what is secret was. When asked, he replied, “I have successful children”. Mums explanations were custom-made for my teenage mind. After each read, she will give an example. Like the last story; it teaches us to be attentive in class so that mum and dad will be happy.

These accounts happened 16 years ago. I have not forgotten nor derailed from the lessons I learnt from mum’s wisdom. Computing was not commonplace; I sometime imagine the beautiful approach she would have employed in teaching me computing – if she had the knowledge.

With parental guidance, you will be amazed at what your child will make out of computing and the internet. There is an example of my 8 years old cousin, she was at my place yesterday and told me about a book she wants to publish.

During her visit, she created a document on my computer. She saved it with School, here is it an excerpt of it

SCHOOL

“ School is a memorable place, wonderful life and remarkable experience. Though there might be divas or bullies or nerds or mean teachers it is still a wonderful experience.

LEVELS OR STANDARDS

We have different levels like:

Primary school or elementary
Secondary school or college
University
But before all these levels we have crèche , beacons and nursery”.

I think this is commendable.

Bottomline: Children need parental guidance on the use of the internet, mobile phones, television and other ICT gadgets.

“I take care of my father’s sheep. Whenever a lion or bear carries off a lamb, I go after it, attack it………… I have killed lions and bears. I will do same with this heathen philistine” - David

Have you been in a church where the pastor said this prayer, “You shall experience your breakthrough this week”? Can you remember how loud the Amen was? Response to breakthrough and success prayers is thunderous Amen and outstretched arms.

I join my voice with those of your pastor, “your miracle and breakthrough shall locate you”. I will be revealing a secret on how you can speed up your breakthrough. Let’s take a cue from history.

Young David was tendering his father’s sheep in the fields when God sent Prophet Samuel to anoint him. Before he confronted and eventually slayed Goliath, his boldness, courage were rooted in his diligence to his work as a shepherd. Have a look, “I take care of my father’s sheep. Whenever a lion or bear carries of a lamb, I go after it, attack it………… I have killed lions and bears. I will do same with this heathen philistine. Sam: 16: 11, 17:34

Are you expecting a miracle, promotion and breakthrough? Are you diligent with your work; when at your duty post? If yes, your miracle is near.

Horn your skills at the things you do, this will boost your confidence and prepare you for the big task. Ultimately, the promotion you seek will find you. The works of your hand will speak for you.

The other adolescent is Gideon. Gideon was threshing some wheat when continue reading at: http://www.appswheel.com/your-breakthrough-is-next-two-adolescent-who-made-history/

Over and over, I hear this saying, “My mother is the best Mum in the world”. You are probably saying the same right now. Ok! Everybody has got the best mum in the world.

Think of what a mother is to her child. At the heart of her world is her child. She nurtures, care and pray for her child. She will do everything possible; within her powers that the child is successful.

So must you be to your dreams, ideas, career and relationships. Many times, mothers give up their comfort to see their children succeed. You must do same, give up your comfort zone to water the seeds of your thoughts (ideas).

Look yourself in a mirror. Now, imagine what you looked like as an infant. See how much you have grown. It took Gods grace; 6 months breast feeding, consistent care from your parents/guardians to nurture you from infant to adolescence.

Therefore, you must be consistent in pursuing your dreams. Do not despise your days of little beginning.
Keep on giving your best in the pursuit of your dreams.

Our next reflection is, “Be a father to your employees”. We shall be revealing how you can keep your best employees.
One way to stay tuned to our reflections is by liking appswheels page. www.facebook.com/appswheel.

B. How much do you earn monthly?

Subtract B – C
Your answer, answers the first question A.

D.What is breakeven point in business?
E. How much did you invest in your business?
F. How much have you realized from the business?
The point at which the amount invested in the business (E) equals(=) profit made (F), answers question D.

To succeed in business, in life you need to apply the simple mathematics you learned in school. Many people ask what value are all the formulas they learnt in school. Yet they have not put the simple mathematics learnt in primary school to use, needless to say the simple interest they learnt in secondary school.

It is important to have an estimate of how much you earn within a period of say a month and your estimated income, this gives you an insight to your spending habits. It tells you if you are spending wisely or not. It tells you if you need to cut down your spending. If you spend more than you earn, your cash flow will be in red (-). This means you will be in debts.
Mathematics is beautiful, isn’t it? Have a great week.

SHALL WE LOSE IT ALL? -‪#‎AppswheelReflection‬.
Our follow follow and copy copy approach in Nigeria has robbed us of what should be our heritage and pride. One in mind is our rich folktales. Batman, Superman and the likes have become models for our young ones - they want to fly, fight and be strong like batman. What moral lessons do batman and his “colleagues” teach.

Are there no Nigerians who can render our folktales in 3D animation? Many African stories teach good morals. Why should they be jettisoned?

This is a challenge to people of black descent who have the skills of 2D and 3D animation; to preserve our folktales with their creativity, skills and talent.

Remind us and teach the children how greediness earned the tortoise a rough shell; how the honest messenger got rewarded, how the wicked step-mother met her waterloo etc
This is a passionate appeal from us at Appswheel.
