This is not a big deal. Follow the instructions to get it replaced. You don't necessarily need certificates to apply for jobs or further your education. As your prospective employer or school will always get in touch with your alma mata. As am writing now, I have not collected my first and second degrees' certificates and I don't have intention of collecting them, why? I consider it safer with the Universities I attended.

“True art is characterized by an irresistible urge in the creative artist,” says Albert Einstein. While some incredibly, lucky people are simply born with the gift of artistic prowess, others have to study to become fluent in the language of art. Whichever path you are on, be aware that everyone is an artist.Some people just let their creative urges out more easily and completely than others. If the artistic path is calling you, begin the journey with tiny steps and follow it. This article is going to show you how to become a true artist in no time.

1 Learning the Basics on Your Own

Try a generous selection of differing mediums of art. If you have never spent much time creating art, it may feel daunting to try to become an artist. The truth is, everyone is an artist; they just need to express their creative ideas in a great way. If there is a specific type of art you would like to learn more about, go for it, but don’t be afraid to branch out and try other mediums as well. Some of the most basic forms of art include:

Drawing: This medium can range from the most basic of sketches to intricate architectural designs. Drawings are generally created with a pencil, pen, charcoal, or crayon. Drawings can be of objects placed right in front of you, or images out of your imagination.
Painting: This medium uses paint brushes to create both real life and imagined images with paint. Painting often delves into the abstract–a painting made in red and purple hues might be a representation of a feeling–such as love–that the painter was feeling while he or she worked.
Photography: Photography uses a film or digital camera to capture a moment in time. Photographs often tell us about what the world was like at the exact moment that the photo was taken. Photos can reflect great beauty or great horror–just as the world can too.
Sculpting: Sculpting is the process of taking a material (clay, wood, metal, etc.) and shaping the material into a work of art or a functional tool (and sometimes both at the same time.)

2 Recognize your strengths and weaknesses.

Once you have tried out all of the mediums, decide which ones you are stronger at. Often someone who is fantastic at creating sculptures out of clay cannot paint to save their life. Of course, there are other people who seem like they were created solely to be fantastic artists and excel at every medium.

Another important thing to keep in mind is which medium you enjoy working with most. If you are fantastic drawer but feel yourself pulled toward sculpting, why not give this new medium a try.

3 Do your research and learn the basics.

Pick up some books on the medium(s) you have chosen to focus on (for now). Learn as much as you can about the medium—read books and articles, watch instructional videos, and research various methods and approaches other artists in your medium take. One of the best ways to learn is by studying the work of others who have come before you. It is completely possible to teach yourself how to be a great artist, you just have to put effort into learning the basics. If you feel like you need a little help, you can always supplement your research with an art class (see Part Two of this article.)

Part of researching your medium means learning the basics about that medium. Learn about the color wheel (primary colors vs. secondary colors, how shading works, etc.)
A key part of your research should consist of what supplies you will need to actually create art. If you can’t seem to find a specific list, you can also use an internet search engine and type in something like ‘basic art supplies needed for drawing.’

God will punish you for all these lies, 99 % of all the projects listed are product of your imagination

We all know great leaders excel at articulating their vision. What’s less often appreciated is that listening is an equally valuable leadership skill.

Why? First, because feeling truly heard is deeply empowering for a team. As Yale business professor Marissa Kind has explained, “when employees feel listened to, they are less likely to feel emotionally exhausted and less likely to quit their job. They are also more likely to trust — and like — their bosses, and feel committed to them.”

Second, because you need to actually hear and process information about the world to be able to set a sensible vision in the first place. Listening well makes you smarter.

So how do you get better at this essential but under sung skill? There are a million suggestions out there, but perhaps one of the most powerful is also the simplest. It comes from author Simon Sinek and consists of all of five little words.
“Be the last to speak.”

In the quick snippet of a talk below (hat tip to design blog swissmiss), Sinek offers a profound leadership lesson that’s dead easy to remember: be the last to speak.

“I see it in boardrooms every day of the week, even people who consider themselves to be good leaders, who may actually be decent leaders, will walk into the room and say, ‘Here’s the problem. Here’s what I think, but I’m interested in your opinion. Let’s go around the room.’ It’s too late,” he warns.

The millennial generation is quite a unique generation for a multitude of reasons. Unlike their predecessor, Generation X, who focused on landing a good job and retiring from the same company. Millennials are all too willing to give up their day jobs in the search for start-up opportunities.

Starting, building, and running your own business is no simple task. The dream of being your own boss and running your own business is what gets you motivated to make it happen, but only a fraction of businesses started each year even make it to the five-year mark. Very few of those businesses that make it are millennial entrepreneurs.

There are the few millennial startups, such as Facebook, Snapchat, Airbnb, and the like, which were wildly successful, but there are many more companies founded by millennials that fail due to the same basic mistakes that create failure for most new businesses.

Every new business owner will put money toward start-up costs such as marketing, sales, and materials. If you forego learning the best way to manage your business’s finances, you are much less likely to make smart financial decisions.

Financial Advisor Winnie Sun and Founding Partner of Sun Group Wealth Partners, says Millennial entrepreneurs continue to commit the same repeatedly, but knows how to avoid them in the future.

1. Not Working with A Financial Expert

According to a recent study, incompetence, as it relates to managing finances, taxes, pricing, and planning, was the cause for 46 percent business failure. One of the most important ideas to take into consideration is the value of hiring an expert to manage the company’s cash flow properly.

2. Living the lifestyle when you can’t afford ‘the lifestyle’

Since 2008, nationwide student loan debt has jumped 84 percent with 40 million Americans (most Millennials) with student loans. This debt sidelines many millennials, causing them to be saddled with paying off debt instead of investing in their business.

3. Failure to Deliver Real Value

42 percent of businesses fail because there is no market need for the product or service.

4. Not Having a Business Plan

Many Millennial entrepreneurs do not outline their goals and details on how to achieve those goals when it is the GPS for your business. The need for a plan becomes obvious as soon as you recognize that you don’t know how much money you need, and when you need it, without laying out projected sales, costs, expenses, and timing of payments.

5. Not Having a Cash Flow Cushion

According to a U.S. Bank study, a whopping 82 percent of businesses that fail do so because of cash flow problems. What are your monetary needs in the next 12 months, in the next 24 to 36 months? It is important to have a cushion if your profit projections do not materialize or if there is an emergency. Remember that cash flow doesn’t just mean the amounts of money that are coming in and out: you have to take timing into account, too.

Forget that thing. The question is why and how? Not that ABU leads. We need to know how they got their admission. Who said they wouldn't have preferred the great UniLag, UNN, OAU or UI. I think they focussed on catchment area where quota system will favor them. You know these guys are quota system people naaa! They hardly merit what is given to them. So leave that matter of ABU leading the pack. Don't take things by their face value. It is good to be deep. Go and research my submission.

Some people say there's no difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED, but there is: When you marry the right woman, you are COMPLETE! When you marry the wrong woman you are FINISHED! ....And when your wife catches you with another woman, you are ...COMPLETELY FINISHED! And if you marry a wife who likes shopping so much, you are FINISHED COMPLETELY!��

Ever been to Idi-Ara when the Lagos state University Teaching Hospital is situated? Then you will know that this calls for immediate and urgent call for action. LUTH is a reputed to be one of the best in the country, but this is definitely not in terms of infrastructure given the pathetic state of the access road to the hospital. From the first gate to the second gate, it is in its deplorable state. This same road is where vehicles which are bringing in emergencies will pass through. I know some will argue that this road is still good compare to other roads in the state, but what's worth doing is worth doing well. These are visuals we are able to get courtesy of YNaija Monitor!

A key thing I’ve learned in my career and my own work experience:

“Bad managers tell employees what to do, good managers explain why they need to do it, but great managers involve people in decision making and improvement.”

There might be more to management to that, but I think that’s a pretty good start. “Lean management,” or the Toyota management style, encourages leaders to live in that “good to great” range (with apologies to Jim Collins).

Bad managers bark orders. They are directive and tell employees what to do, without any explanation or context. I saw that style of management quite often during my first two years at General Motors (read my previous post about that experience) and the workplace was incredibly dysfunctional as a result.

There are top-down, “command and control” managers in every type of workplace, unfortunately. Managers who are controlling and have all the answers want their employees to “check their brains at the door,” and often say so quite explicitly — or they spread that message in more subtle ways.

At GM, front-line employees complained that they were “hired for their backs and their arms, not their brains.” In hospitals, healthcare professionals (even those with master’s degrees) have complained, “They just want us to do what we’re told.” This is not a recipe for quality, productivity, or good customer service.

A friend of mine lives in a high-rise condo building. One example of “telling” was the general manager telling employees that the doors to the resident gym must now be kept closed at all times. For years, previously, the doors had been left open unless a resident wanted privacy and chose to close them.

My friend asked one of the employees, “Why are the doors closed all of the time now?” The employee replied, “I don’t know, [the manager] just told us to.”

It’s disrespectful to just give directives without letting people understand the reason(s) why. There might have very well been a good reason why the doors were now to be kept closed. Had the manager taken just a few minutes to share a reason why, the employees would feel better about themselves and would more likely keep the doors closed. If employees are following directives out of a fear of being “written up,” they aren’t in a position to provide great service.

A good condo manager would explain why the doors now need to be closed. And, if there wasn’t a good reason why, they wouldn’t force the change on a whim.

A great condo manager would involve the employees in coming up with solutions to whatever problem is being solved by keeping the doors closed. The employees, when being posed with the problem, might come up with the idea of “close the doors” or they might come up with something better. Either way, they would feel a greater sense of ownership over the idea since they were involved in its creation.

Things that go bump in the night, monsters hiding under the bed and terrifying clowns called “It”: These are the things nightmares are made of. But for some employees, the scariest part of their day isn’t a movie; it’s dealing with bad managers.While no one sets out to be a bad manager, this scenario happens and all too often. In fact, one in two employees surveyed by Gallup in 2015 said they had left jobs to get away from a bad manager.

Since managers are the main sources for employee motivation, productivity, happiness and retention, one who’s a “nightmare” can wreak more damage than just unhappy employees. Even with today’s technology and resources, managers continue to make major mistakes — and that can hurt the bottom line at the same time it costs companies quality employees.

The solution? Be aware of the habits that could make your managers a nightmare, and don’t get tangled in that web to begin with.

Here are four examples of managers who haunt employees long after the workday has ended — and how to avoid becoming one:

1. The poor “people” person

A manager who doesn’t interact well with people sounds like an oxymoron, but these individuals exist. When someone who doesn’t work well with others is in charge of a team, the entire company dynamic becomes derailed.

One of the biggest things that suffers is free-flowing communication. OfficeVibe’s August State of Employee Engagement report found that 31 percent of employees polled wished their manager communicated with them more frequently.

Unfortunately, however, a manager categorized as a “poor people person” may actually be uncomfortable communicating and dealing with critical employee situations.

For some managers, this type of bad management style will be easy to avoid. However, others will have to overcome their natural tendencies to stray away from social situations. This means that leaders have to assess personality types and understand which people skills that certain managers lack may need improving.

The best place to get information is from your current team members. Because they may feel they’re being put into an awkward situation, you might offer an anonymous survey. Ask how frequently your employees would like to speak with management and in what format, and whether they feel management is opening up and communicating with them on the level they need.

2. The self-involved manager

Quality managers have a knack for motivating their entire team toward one end goal — the company’s mission. While this is accomplished by setting and pursuing personal and company goals, good team leaders know how to invoke passion from employees and help them succeed on every front.



The self-involved manager, on the other hand, has no awareness of anyone’s goals but his or her own. This is why the incidence of managers taking credit for their team’s hard work and not empowering employees happens all too frequently.

Self-involved managers may seem successful due to their ability to hit goals and make the numbers move, but that’s all they’re interested in.

For managers who want to improve, a good place to focus on is the greater good of the company. In this regard, managers need to know exactly where employees stand with their individual goals, the nature of their personal missions and where they picture the company moving to.

Ignoring this kind of detail about employees may make managers seem self-involved, and employees will quickly lose trust in their leadership.

Sit down for weekly meetings or create an online chat room where managers and employees can come together. Make this a safe place for all to share their personal goals or discuss where they hope to see the company in a few years. Offer advice, step-by-step guides or continuing education courses to help employees reach their greatest potential.

3. The overly involved manager

This type of manager often wears a mask of popularity and is frequently involved in a small company or startup. “Overly involved” doesn’t simply refer to the micromanager who has to be in on every project, opinion and decision. Overly involved managers take things a step further and try to meddle in every aspect of their employees’ lives.

Confused977:
Good afternoon everyone here. I have been an ardent of this forum so, I felt it wouldn't be bad to bare my heart here as I know I'd surely get an advice that will make me see clearer. Please bear with me as I am not very perfect when it comes to expressing my self in writing. Pls pardon my write-up should you see it as too long. I just want to bare it all so one can know what to tell me. Thanks.
My Name is Amanda. I lost my parents when I was sixteen . I am from a family of five. I was about to sit for WAEC before the sudden demise of my parents. I had to drop out of school cus I couldn't pay bills and my older siblings were still struggling, so I got a job. I worked as a cleaner say for 2 years and I was able to save up something and enrolled for WAEC AND GCE and I passed. I tried my first admission it didn't so the second year someone told me to try a Polytechnic and fortunately I got admitted. I joined school but I kept working and I saved up some bucks and at the end of my ND at federal poly Auchi my G. P was 3.40 yes! I cried for joy.
I. T (Industrial Training) started and I felt it would make more sense If I could start something little within my environment. Since I knew a lot about female bags and wears I held on to the idea and started. My customer base grew as I went from department to department showing and convincing the "big girls" in school about my goods. I approached just anybody so long you female. I kept moving at that pace until I was heavily sought after. My room became my boutique.
Why I am confused now
All glory to God I have been able to establish a good relationship with people who sale to me on credit which allows me own varieties and sell more.
1. Not to exaggerate, I make a minimum of 40 to 45k a month as my own.
2. I ain't rich but I think I am comfortable for a young lady of my age. I will be 24 3rd October.
I focused more on my business and I didn't join my mates for the HND session. My reason was; after school now, I go carry certificate they Waka up and down. Make I kuku use this small money wey I don save use am run my business first as I thought school can wait. could I be wrong?

# I have a course mate who traveled overseas after our ND and she has been encouraging me to come over since I could afford the travel expenses (not to lie, I was considering this also which made me forget going back for my HND.)
Now my question is if you were me would you go back to school? I am of the opinion that schooling in Nigeria without a good back up could leave me frustrated after graduation. No job.
# if you were me would you just continue with your business and open up a shop or would you travel out, get a job and go to school there?
Pls advice Me as I would be turning 24 in no time and I am JUST CONFUSED I have the feeling that any decision I make at this point would either make or destroy me permanently. Pls help a sister
Should I go back to school? cus my dad always wanted me to get an education but I feel I should be able to know what works as times have changed.
Pls I am open to any form of advice. God bless.
