Congratulations sir on your new academy. I wish you more success in future.
Though I've been following your threads for a while now and I can say i am impressed.
Please I want you respond to my question and which is, what textbooks can you recommend for someone who wants to learn mathematics from scratch, I am in the uni. Thanks I await your reply.

At 20, you have the wealth of time. To tell you how important time is, will you prefer to be a billionaire at 90 years old, or just average at 20? Well, I'm sure you'll pick average at 20. That's how important time is. If you learn a skill and start a business with it, in even five years time, if you're good, you'll be set for life. The formula of wasting your 20's studying some useless course just to be in school, measure shoulders with friends, and indulging in hedonism is a recipe for failure. Sadly most youth follow this path. Is it not proof enough that most graduates are unemployed, underemployed, and wrongly employed ? And even those with good jobs self are paid lower?

Forget about university, that's assuming you have finished secondary school. Studying in Nigeria is to prepare for the past, for sure not the present, and definitely not the future. If you must study, look for an online university from the west, and get your degree there. Also start a business. If you start a business today at 20, when you're 30, your business is 10 years old, and would have grown so much to set you for life. Then your 30's would means you're an eligible suitor, and you'll enjoy the attention women enjoy right from young.

And on business, the skills that most people look down on can give you billions. The differences between KFC and Aboki chicken is marketing, packaging, structure, expansion, modernising, and other know-how to grow a business. Also garment making, you can keep improving yourself, follow market trends about whats on reign, register your business, professionalise it, expand, and you can actually be as big as Nike. The mind is your limit, not the sky. Search for grassfield on Instagram, the two Cameroonian sisters built a multi million dollars company selling African clothes online. Same clothes that lots of talented tailors just restrict themselves to small shops. Same with Gymshark wears, "dollars having club" and many more.

your 30's would be a phase of a committed relationship, kids, and being responsible. You don't want to be in your 30's and broke, and then you're too big and egoistic to start low, and financial burden from parents begin piling up. You can be forgiving in your 20's if you can't deliver, but not your 30's. So when you voluntarily go handle life's impending responsibilities before it comes knocking, you'll be stronger and equipped to win, but if the responsibilities come knocking on your door when you're not ready (eg you're 30 feeling ashamed and start looking for a job and a wife), life would be hell.

20's are the age of trial and error, you have time, and please don't waste it partying. It goes so fast. Suffer now and enjoy layer. The truth every wealthy person know is that life is a race against time. Your opponent is not the economy, government, friends, but with time. So start running early, so by 30, it's easier to reach the goal post from the middle, instead of from the starting point. Time is the most important currency in the world. Talk to lots of old people, and they will tell you this. Don't wait until you're old to find out, use your youth and start building.

I see many of my age mate (I am in my early 30's) and feel sorry for them. Many of them wasted it doing rubbish, spending it studying some useless course, without understanding the age we are in. They operated in the template of the past, that their parent operated in without the consciousness to see that times has changed. All my 20's was spent hustling, meanwhile, at 20's, many think they are young and have time. When you're 20 years old, 30 seems far. But when you're 30, 35 seems closer, and then you'll have a bigger responsibilities in your hand, and you must deliver, or else? Hmmm.

When you're in your 20's, you can be stupid, and people won't be disgusted by you. You're a potential, you can be anything, and will easily be forgiving, but it's not the same in your 30's. In your 30's the question is, "what are you doing", not, "what do you want to be"?. Girls would also be disgusted by you if your life is not put together and you'll have a low self esteem, and for a right reason because there is nothing virtous about about an old infant. People will disrespect you and if you're not a strong person in spirit, it's just a one way road to hell from there.

You can argue that hell is an afterlife thing, but i can tell you for free that hell is also here on earth. There are people living in hell, and you'll know because they'll be so ashame to look at your eyeball, because they don't want you to see the hell they are in. And in many case, those in hell are usually older people that wasted time they can't recover, but when they learnt that lesson, it's just too late. I repeat, time is your opponent, and don't waste it. For that's the true meaning of "make hay, while the sun shine".

But preferably, I would advice to learn a skill. Even me that went to university, I haven't seen my certificate for years, I just pack am one side. My skills business that I started in my 20's feed me, I can't be sacked. So learn a skill and start a business with it. Tailoring, shoemaking, car repair, IT etc.

Thanks for this sir and to other inputs I really appreciate this. The5DME, thanks for topic, just want I needed now.

BelieverDE:
Good day Nlanders

My HP laptop no longer powers on. The light doesn't show even after plugging the power cable to it.

Please, kindly assist me on how to fix it.

Same problem as mine. I gave it to a technician and he said it was the panel. So prolly it might be the panel. You can either replace it with a new panel or you repair the faulty panel. Merçi.

Well, I can still make the first class tho. Just that my first year in school is "On God". I hope to work harder in the subsequent years.

udemzyudex:

Computer village, Ikeja.

I will be there this Friday or Saturday. How will I locate your shop?

If you're in lag,I can fix it for you.

I can come to lag, where in lag exactly?

My HP pavilion g series refuses to power on even after removing the battery and it doesn't indicate if it's charging anymore. What could be the problem.
N.B: my charger is working fine.

Veiniously:
it requires opening the system. The board will be the last option because it requires technical know how

Thanks sir. I appreciate your input.

Candycrushy:
I will make this a very short one.
I'm a fresh graduate and I really want to start earning and be more productive for myself.
I have a skill in fashion designing, i sew well and I'm not fully earning from that yet because of studies. I wish to know other possibles ways to learn and earn more preferably online that i can add as a side hustle.
I'm ready to pay if i have to just learn anything that'd fetch me money online. My passion is in sewing and i wouldn't want to trade that for anything and i already have plans of growing it in a big way which would cost me money too.
Please i need help and suggestions on how to achieve that. I can't also see myself working under someone for salary pay hence i need to my own boss.
Thanks for suggestions.

Veiniously:
I believe the technician is suppose to tell u the issue before billing. Have u tried changing battery charger, charging port? Their are different issues with pc not booting it might also be the board.

The technician just viewed the laptop and said 5500 like that.
For the charger, yes I have a spare charge which I used and also I think the port is working and for the board, I don't really have good knowledge on that. How do I check the board? Thanks for the response.

I had to quote you on this.

Boy, do not wait till your holiday time before learning skills. Before next week, kindly check your school Aluta market to check on someone who knows graphics designing very well and start immediately. Ohhh Your course is tough right? I don't care (you will know why in my next paragraph), just start with every seriousness and never, I repeat, never let your class time to take a minute out of the time you will use for skill learning.

You know why? My kid bro graduated from the same course as yours with a first. He works with arguably the highest paying firm in Nigeria and his department is being managed by an Indian. You know how those people see Nigerian, Right? Last month he told me like 4 of his friends left to fully face their IT career and he is also considering doing so, all thanks to the fact that they used their school days to learn IT (All of them are good programers with other IT skills). If they had not learn those skills then but faced his course full time, they will not have option. And I know so many who studied your course (and even with good connection) that IT is saving their days.


Read for your course and pass your exams but take skill acquisition more serious, e get why.

Thank you sir for the advice. I am grateful.

Hello everyone, hope you guys are enjoying your weekend?

To the point, I have an HP pavilion g series laptop that have not been able to power on since April, I I tried removing the battery if it will on, yet it was not coming on. Please computer gurus, what do you think is the problem and how much does it cost to fix the problem. Though I went to a technician yesterday and he said 5500 for fixing it. I need your input guys.

Also, I want to upgrade the laptop also, I mean an overhaul upgrade, how much will it cost also? Thanks

Good topic just about time.
Well I am still in my first year tho, studying Mechanical Engineering.

I am planning to make judicious use of my holiday after exams, please my question is can anyone suggest where i can get practical skills regarding my course of study and what should I learn also? I think this is related to the I.T stuff

I am open to suggestions and learning. Thanks.

Well I am a barber tho, in Ifo, Ogun state here, I cut as low as 150/200 naira cause of the people around even before they pay the money na stress for them. But when I get to the island I cut as low as 400/500 naira.

N.B: I am available for home service.

You can achieve it dear, whether part-time or full time. You just have to be intentional with what you do and who you mingle with. If you really desire a change in your life then you won't let your background put your back to the ground.

Some useful tips you use to improve your English speaking skills and vocab includes:
1. Listen to news and if you are the type that watches movies( British) learn how they speak and they used their words.

2. Learn at least 10 news words everyday, know that meaning of the words, the usage and the antonyms and synonyms of such words.

3. Communicate in English, when you chat writing in full what you typed.

4. Any words you come across that looks new to you in the course of reading, write out the words and look up for the meaning of such words making use of a dictionary (oxford e.t.c)

5. Read, read and read.

Yes, met one in my school (a university in the south-west), later found out he was my faculty mate. From there we clicked and became good friends till this very moment.

BigBrowser:
I could have done it without doing this but so when the news will start filtering in days to come you'll know I was serious.

Again, bye to you all. We shall see again in the other side of life (if there's any).

Bro, take a deep breath, take a walk away from home and just reflect back on your life, those times you were successful at somethings, those little wins, those times you were happy and remember the people that made you happy and laugh uncontrollably way back. When you are done reflecting, go back home , take a shower, take God for being alive and sleep off.

The next day, go to your mirror and start making positive utterances towards yourself like "I am the best", "I will be successful" e.t.c. When you are done, write those goals you need to achieve break those goals into daily, weekly, quarterly e.t.c goals. Score and celebrate yourself on the little goals/things you achieved. Follow people of your like mind and be optimistic. I don't have money now but this is all I have. Take care and be strong.
