kingDELE:
You have already mastered the art on Laptop. It will be easy for you on phone.

What if I tell you I started with mobile phone? And it was that money I made with my mobile phone I used to buy my first laptop ever?

CaveAdullam:
1. Scientific research has it that: it is people that were born with a silver spoon that shows more empathy with people at the bottom of the hierarchy when compared to people that struggled their way to the top.

2. Once you become successful, you quickly forget your struggling days. The fact is that time and chance favored you. And of course, endurance, persistency, consistency, and determination are good catalysts to propel you. But if the right person and situation that will make it yield results are absent, your dream will never come true.

3. Many of us do underestimate luck. We always think it is because of our power and might. We judge people unfairly without first taking a tour into their predicament. Some persons are the genesis of their problem, but do you think any man plans to bring downfall to himself? Even criminals are in a struggle for existence.

4. When judging, we don't put the economic system, political system, infrastructures, family and cultural backgrounds, individual biology, and genetics into consideration. Location is not considered. The individual energy level is not considered.

5. The funniest or will I say stupid of them all is when these sets of go "learn a skill" people demand money from a $0 broke guy to buy a course and be able to learn a skill...it is funny. They hoard information as if when they die they are taking anything to the grave...they are stupid!

Thanks for your kind words. I do appreciate it.

Apt!

MisterKennedy:

Yeah,I testify to this..
It's time youth,graduates,teriary students now realize that this country holds nothing for them.
Being a graduate doesn't guarantee a job anymore to talk of a high paying job. Even most people who has a job are just like working to pay bills,nothing to gather, nothing!
This country is messed up!
The rate of unemployment is now so high! Why!?

And also,most youths ain't helping their selves,they just keep complaining and blaming it on the government everyday,yeah,I understand they hold the major causes of this,but are they even hearing you out? Since you have been complaining,did anything change?

It's just time you source for an alternative for yourself dear. Nigeria isn't good,Nigeria isn't good, but some people are making it,think of it dear.

I personally thought of this a day just like this,and that was it, today I'd forever advise anyone to learn digital skills..Go into digital skills!,stop being an expert at giving yourself excuses,you can't take your excuses to bank.. stop saying doesn't learning a skill requires money,you should think about the opportunities in it..you should think about how much money you're gonna make from it,you should think about the financial stability you're gonna get from that.

And also,when I mention learn a digital skills, I'm talking about lucrative digital skills!,not just any one,you get that? ,Then ensure the person you want to learn from a real tutor,not all these fake tutor that mention about their fake earnings,not all these tutors who haven't made a dime out of it but claim to have made millions, be cautious

Below are the skills I can testify to,paying my bills, all lucrative!:

• 3D Modelling & Rendering
• Graphic design
• Video animation (3D/2D/Whiteboard)
• Video editing
• UI/UX design
• Motion Graphics
• Digital Marketing
• Audio editing
• Affiliate marketing
• SEO/Google analytics
• Photo editing & Retouching
• Web development
• Mobile app development
• Business Writing
• Social Media Management(SMM)
• Web design
• Sales/Closing
• Facebook ads & marketing
• Sales Prospecting and Lead Generation
• Email Marketing
• Public Speaking
• Social Media Presence Growth(SMPG)
• Business Marketing & Growth Strategies(BMGS)
• Photo Restoration (How to restore, repair and colourize old photos )
• Relationship marketing strategy and implementation (RMSI)
• YouTube Channel Growth Hacks : How to grow your YouTube channel organically.

Also, I learnt Data Science and analytics and Cyber security, but I'm not really into them because,well,let me say, because my other skills are paying me well,but those two skills are as well lucrative,you can try them out.

Only you all these

Hannaleeyah:
And who told you you can't be a pro at video editing, graphic designing with your mobile just to start with?
It's time people stop giving excuses like I need laptop,those excuses aren't worthy..even as I am now,I use mobile phone for most of my works when I'm not at home with my PC and it's almost as perfect as that of PC,so what's stopping you? I ensured I learnt and master the use of mobile and PC for every work I do,it helps

Thank you,most Nigerian youths are very lazy and use excuses to cover for it, imagine saying you must have laptop, something you can start learning on phone, then youll hear them complaining about data but they always on FB and tiktok

CaveAdullam:
1. Sometimes when you all start announcing the term "learn a skill" I do wonder if you all think learning a skill is just as easy as the air you breathe.

2. You need to pay for an apprenticeship before learning any physical skill. Even as you are learning, you need to feed at least twice daily. You need to pay for transport. These are basic needs. But you all never consider this. In your minds, these youths are lazy, they don't have the power of positive thinking, and they can't think and grow rich.

3. Digital skills requires a laptop. At least one needs a 100k flat to consider buying a fairly used one. Where is the learner going to see this money? What about data, how is he going to sort himself out? What about electricity, how is he going to cope when it is glaring that the power supply in Nigeria is more epileptic than epilepsy.

4. We should not even talk about getting your first job or customer in a third-world nation... let's wait till you learn a skill.

5. It is so unfortunate that in a country like Nigeria, the only means of survival as it currently stands is through the internet either for a positive or negative purpose. We have not even considered the IQ of the Black nation, knowing fully well that their IQ is below average (85/100). Yes, you can beat it and succeed in science or computer science, but how many will be consistent, persistent, patient, and determined to overcome that phase. It's just like convincing a snail to reach the finish line in a race with hares, antelopes, and wild cats.

It is not easy to perform a job that is beyond your physical and intellectual ability. You must go the extra mile. But what's the guarantee?

6. What about the jobless and underemployed graduates? These sets of humans worked their lives in gaining a degree...or, do you all think spending 4 - 13 years in a higher academic institution is a joke?

7. It is so easy to say go learn a skill when you forgot to consider those who helped you behind the scene. During your go "learn a skill" seminar you never consider these people and the sheer luck that shone upon you. Or, do you think all humans have the same opportunity?

8. Learning a skill is not bad. Nigeria/Africa has left for the gutters, sinking and wallowing in bribery, corruption, poverty, inept leaders, insecurity, social vices, and other evils you can think of.

And as a result, learning a skill becomes paramount.

9. But what I want you all to take note of especially those motivational speakers that hide behind various forms of crime with a saintly look should know that before learning a skill, an individual basic needs must be met. They include food, shelter, clothing, security, electricity, good road, and data. If these things are not provided it will take grace for a few to scale through, and that's why many that started learning a skill never made it to the finish line. You all should give these people a break, please.

10. Before learning a skill you just need to undergo therapy because depression and suicidal thoughts are real.

11. Alright. Since we can't easily savage the situation on the ground, we will endeavor to learn a skill with the hope of success.

Stay aloof from crime. I know. I understand. But just try. We must survive.

Thanks.

You are very realistic sir! God bless you.

MisterKennedy:
Hmmm

You're right dear

But the only problem is that most skills that are saturated are very lucrative and profitable

If people were to go for skills that haven't been saturated then those skills have a 50-50 change of being less lucrative and less profitable.... Because definitely many people will be competing for the well paying and lucrative jobs

And as far as people going for jobs that they have interest in, hmmm what if the person's job of interest falls under a low paying or less lucrative and less profitable job

The way I see it, money is the biggest motivation for people even working in the first place

And the majority of people will always want to ditch their low paying job for a higher one, regardless of if it's in line with their area of interest or not.

That's true... You've said it all

PROPEACE:
Yes the government owes us a job! Worldwide, it is the job of the government to create jobs. They have failed, that does not mean they should be absolved of blame. Yes, young Nigerians should learn a skill, but must never accept as normal the failure of their leaders to do what is right. Trump, Obama, etc all brag about the jobs they created while in office. The developed countries are taking our best engineers, doctors, nurses etc and we are advocating artisanship? Why are all their graduated not artisans? Which first world country attained first world status through SMEs? Which? We may do artisanship in our desperation to survive, but we must never think it is normal for engineers and doctors to become carpenters and tailors.

Artisanship is not bad. Engineers and ductors can run a consulting or small enterprise within their field.

Learning Skill pays a lot now!

Dey don dey learn Yahoo Yahoo now.

Which one u dey learn o?
Me dey interested sef

ameh99:
People will still complain even if learning a skill is free

Poverty is the closest thing to laziness

The time and resources you wast on NL is enough to get you started

You have almost everything you need on the internet but rather you are always online bashing one politician or the other

I got the foundation of my skills from the internet before I began to search for practical knowledge

And when I did meet with who was really ready to put me through praticals it was quite easy for me and didn't actually cost me much because I came with a little knowledge of my own
Today, I have people under my pay role

To climbed up that ladder,,

You need to serve to be served
Humility, patient, manners, sincerity and above all fear of God..

What skill did u get?
