Hello Friend,

In our last article, we discussed on how to discipline yourself
in preparing for your CIS exams with some tips to aid you achieve that.

Today, we will be looking at why self-discipline is
very crucial for your exams preparations.

The Merriam-Webster defines self-discipline as the
“correction or regulation of oneself for the sake of improvement.”

This definition clearly shows the importance of self-discipline.

It implies that we have to regulate ourselves or
stop ourselves from certain behaviors if we are to improve.

Relating this to studying, it clearly means that
we have to stop certain things or take up new things while
studying so as to get the positive result we want.

Self-discipline also helps in increasing your self-esteem because
you are now able to achieve the goals you set for yourself.
With this, you get a boost in your confidence.
Basically, there are four major distractions all
professional students are faced with when trying to prepare for an exam.

They include; your work, friends, social media, family, and even too much of sleep…

Most of which are very important to your individual and family life.
But how do you manage some of these very important routines
in your life and still discipline yourself enough to
adequately prepare for your CIS exams

In addition to the tips I gave in the part one of
how to discipline yourself for your exams preparations,

The next step you need to take is to ensure that you start from small…

As the popular saying goes “Do not neglect little beginnings”
Self-discipline is not what you are born with. Self-discipline is
among the few virtues that you learn until it becomes part of you.

Like I mentioned in the first article;
why you should stop the habit of perfect timing,
you do not really need to wait until when you are fully ready and
prepared because that might not happen
anytime soon if at all it’s going to happen.

Starting small entails that you give yourself
a little target at a time and as you accomplish
those ones, you increase the task and set higher study goals for yourself.
If you continue like this, you will see that self-discipline is
not just to study for your exams but applying it to
other aspects of your life becomes easier.

If you want to be disciplined when reading,
try reading for 30 minutes without any form of
distraction and with maximum concentration.

When you have accomplished that, be happy and
commend yourself as you have started climbing the
ladder of self-discipline aiming at the top.

Lastly, ensure to keep to your study schedules;
as much as it is important to plan your daily study
routines, it is much more important to keep to the schedule.

Don’t plan your reading schedule and tell yourself
“I’m not sure I will be able to meet up with my studies today because of …,
so let me push it to tomorrow.”

As soon as you start making decisions to be
skipping your daily reading schedule,
your enthusiasm to practice self-discipline for effective study will drop.

Before you know it, you will be back to square one
where you were before; procrastinating on your exams preparations.

If you plan your study schedule, ensure to stick to it on
daily basis irrespective of your distractions. But if for
inevitable reason you skip a session,
try as much as possible to schedule a makeup time for it.
That way your level of enthusiasm of self-disciplining yourself will remain intact.

And much more importantly, try to acknowledge your victory…
When you are able to accomplish a certain task you give to yourself,
commend yourself, give yourself smiles, acknowledge yourself.

Self-encouragement and commendment helps to tell
yourself that you are fit for the task ahead even if they might seem tougher.

This is because as you journey through the
school of self-discipline, taking cognizance of
small victory and acknowledgment is important.

P.S: Self-discipline is the key to any given success because it makes every given desired achievement

When I spoke with Ese in 2017 on the need for his own personal development, he gave a pompous reply
“I am now a manager in my company and I’m well paid, with a car and a house. For now I don’t need to learn any other skill for personal development.”

That response was awkward but I kept quiet

In 2018, new staffs were employed in the company so he called me one day and said,

“Rita, there is this young guy we just employed, that guy is very good with IT work ooo, anyway I am still the manager and he is under me.”

Not too long afterwards, the MD of the company noticed the great improvement in the organization, so he made an inquiry and was told about the input of that young guy who is good with IT work, which had a positive impact on the company’s income.

The MD invited the young man without the manager’s knowledge, his salary was reviewed and was given added responsibility to oversee other departments.

The Manager got to know about this and confronted the MD that the young man promotion was too early.

By the next month, the MD made the young guy the Branch head- he was placed over ‘Manager’ Ese.

If you were Ese what will you do?

Every company likes assets and they spot them when they arrive. Be sure to retain your position in your organisation by a continuous personal development.

If you are out dated or irrelevant, time will tell and it is either you are replaced or sacked.

Remember, Type writer have been replace with computer because, Type writer is out-dated, but computer is current because over the years, it has moved from stage to stage (From 1st generation to 5th generation).

Current or Out-dated, where do you belong?

Success means having the courage, the determination, and
the will to become the person you believe you are meant to be.


Here was my routine: wake up, do my work, watch TV, and go to bed.
This was a regular day in my life not long ago.
It was not too eventful and not challenging,
and to be honest, the less challenging it was,
the less stress there was for me—at least that was what I thought.


I had been working in this small company for a few years,
and my income was not up to where I had wanted it to be.
In fact, it was pretty far away from the amount I had floating around in my head.
But still, I went through the same motions every day and was okay with it.
This was because i will resume to work by 9:30am and close by 4:00pm, at times 3:30Pm.
And the funny part is that I was always hoping that I will one day reach that amount.


I am a big believer in taking action to CREATE THE LIFE YOU WANT,
and at that point I thought I was taking action.
That wasn’t true, but a lie I was telling myself in order to
remain in my comfort zone that I was.


Occasionally, big ideas on how I can develop myself
and pave way for success will come floating in my head,
but I kept brushing those ideas off because they were outside of
my comfort zone.


Then one day,
I came across a book that gave me what i called; “The Success Principles”.
I learned that if I was ever going to see a change
in my career and life, I had to PUSH OUTSIDE MY COMFORT ZONE.
I had to take the risks that scared me and
FACE MY FEARS heads-on in order to realize
what I was capable of and what I could accomplish.


I now realize that I was stressed about not succeeding,
in large part because
I was unwilling to get uncomfortable.
It was when I realized this and started facing
my fears squarely. I started tackling and doing what I knew
will bring me glory that my life changed tremendously.


I know that the payoff of stepping out of your comfort zone is
worth the initial nervousness that will be whispering,
‘Get out of here and go back to what feels familiar and safe.’
But it’s what you must do,
if you must achieve that career dreams to better your life and that of your family.

Here are few things that may be holding you back from doing something that will bring you glory;

The Feelings of Rejection: Rejection can lead you to feel like you’re not good enough,
since it often leads to criticism, from yourself or someone else.
Use this criticism to learn how you can improve in order to succeed.
Once you know what you have to develop on,
you can work on those areas and try again.
If you keep learning and growing, you will succeed.

For instance, if you sit for an exams and
failed because your performances were low, you could easily feel like
an incompetent person who can’t get what he want,
then you give up, and never attempt the exams again.
Or you can take the failure, learn from it, and come back stronger.
There’s literally nowhere to go but up.
Learn all you can about the exams (or whatever it is you do).
With some practice and persistence, you will eventually pass your exams even better.
A little rejection is inevitable,
but if you’re willing to keep trying, you will see both progress and results.

Fear: Fear holds so many people back in life.
Fear of the outcome, fear of the unknown, fear of not being good enough,
and fear of failing—we go through them all.
You can pile fear on top of fear until eventually you find it easier to just
forget the whole idea and do something that makes you comfortable.
Fear stems from our beliefs about ourselves,
which come from our experiences and feedback
from family and friends. If you have had a negative experience with something,
then you may fear experiencing that negative feeling again.
If you have been told that you can’t do something,
then you might be fearful that you really can’t do it.
You need to remove these limiting beliefs and
push past the fear. You can do this
by using positive affirmations about yourself
and consistently using positive self-talk to boost up your confidence level.
It also helps to surround yourself with people
who believe in you and your abilities and push you forward to face your fears.


Inability: Sometimes we know that we can’t do something,
and sometimes we have tried to do something before and failed.
For instance, if you have never tried swimming before,
taking on the challenge of swimming across a lake may seem unrealistic.
On the other hand, if you have tried to swim across the lake before and failed,
then you may hold the belief that you just can’t do it.


Fortunately for us, inability is something that everyone can push past.
With enough effort, you can learn almost anything you set your mind to.
You just have to find the information or help and start learning and practicing.
You just have to start small and keep going…

When you just look at your child and wonder
“why is it that this child so lazy and
unmotivated to do anything especially school work?”

And this can be very frustrating
you just feel that the child is the problem and
you focus your energy on that child changing
and not what is really causing the problem.

if you feel a little bit confuse,
let me share a personal story with you

When I was younger my mum complained
a lot about me being too slow and not smart
even at my home chores and my school work
She talked about it like I deliberately decided
to be slow or not smart

This made me feel like she didn’t really care
about me even when I know she is my mother
I didn’t really feel like changing to be smarter
or better,
it just made me more stubborn

This affected my education till Senior Secondary School,
even when I became wiser and knew that it was
from a place of love.
By then it was a bit late because I had failed
a lot and repeated some classes.

This got me thinking…
Maybe if she had paid attention to the problem
and not me, I would be more motivated
to change or do better .

Also

My aunt’s son Seun was very stubborn
he didn’t like to read at all. Anytime his mum asked him
to read, he would practically hit his leg on the floor and grumbled.

When my aunty noticed this
she spoke to him calmly to understand
what the real problem was
and she addressed the reason he was always
reluctant to study.
With this, he became motivated and was ready
to learn because he didn’t feel like he was attacked.

As an educationist, I have discovered
that the problem with most children and teenager
is they feel unmotivated to read.
But if you make the problem all about them
and not seeking to know the problem and
why they act the way they act,
they will continue to throw tantrums and be more difficult

This is how you can go about it
Let your child know that you care about
who he or she is as a person

Connect with your child over things
that interests him or her (this works a lot)
and then bring up the conversation about the problem
and how you can both find solution to it
Discuss their favourite hobbies with them

This will help your child to understand that
while he or she may be struggling, you’ll be there the entire way.
And this feeling will actually motivate your child
to do better I their education

P S: It very important for you to understand your child
and how you can help them to do better in their education
and reach their fullest potential. You can also introduce
new educational material that will help your child learn
faster and easier with the WAEC video lecture.

Need WAEC/NECO/GCE Video Lectures (Inclusive of Question and Answer) to make learning easier for your child?

Finally you have reasons to become a Chartered Tax Practitioner,
the new financial bill is a door opener to your CITN career.

The New Financial Bill has the following strategic objectives:

• Promoting fiscal equity.

• Reforming domestic tax laws to align with global best practices.


• Introducing tax incentives for investments in infrastructure and capital markets.

• Supporting MSMEs.


• Raising revenues for government.

• Quite significantly, the Finance Bill seeks to introduce sweeping changes to the laws covering seven different tax laws. This publication examines the implications of the proposed changes on various sectors.


Below are some of the important details in the bill you should know about:

• Excess dividend tax to apply only to untaxed distributions other than profits specifically exempted from tax and franked investment income

• Small businesses with turnover less than N25m to be exempted from Companies Income Tax


• A lower CIT rate of 20% to apply to medium-sized companies with turnover between N25m and N100m

• Commencement and cessation rules modified to eliminate overlaps and gaps to avoid double taxation and complication during commencement

• Minimum tax provisions amended to 0.5% of turnover and exemption only applies to small companies (less than 25m turnover), so non-resident companies will now pay minimum tax

• Insurance companies can now carry forward tax losses indefinitely, deduct reserve for unexpired risks on time apportionment bases while special minimum tax for insurance has been abolished

• Bonus of 2% of tax payable (medium-sized companies) and 1% for large companies for early payment of CIT

• Introduction of thin capitalization of 30% of EBITDA for interest deductibility. Any excess deduction can be carried forward for 5 years

• Deemed tax presence for non-residents with respect to imported technical and management services now taxable at a final WHT rate of 10%

• Any expense incurred to earn exempt income now specifically disallowed as a deduction against other taxable income

• Dividend distributed from petroleum profits now to suffer 10% withholding tax


But what has all the above got to do with your CITN career?
A lot, I mean a lot.

1. Every worker will now pay tax……………. Banks will now request for Tax Identification Number (TIN) before opening bank accounts for individuals, while existing account holders must provide their TIN to continue operating their accounts?..... It means your service is highly needed now.

2. Company must remit their tax before due date …………………. They need a certified Chartered Tax Practitioner to help the do this…. They need you.

3. CITN Professional Qualification is one of the pre-requisites for promotion to senior administrative cadre in the states Internal Revenue Service and the Federal Inland Revenue.


Don’t you think you now have enough reasons to become a Certified Chartered Tax Practitioner?

P.S: “Excuses will always be there for you. Opportunity won’t.”

As the 2019 ICAN March exams draws closer, you start experiencing stress and anxiety.
Though a little nervousness can actually help you to perform at your best.
However, when this distress become so excessive
it actually interfere with your performance on an exam it is known as exam anxiety.
Have you been in a situation where you got into the exam hall
and you blank out on answers, even the easiest one you didn't not remember?
If yes then
that is exactly what exam anxiety does.
But what causes exam anxiety?

Exam anxiety can be caused by a number of things
1. A history of poor exam outcomes. If you have done poorly in an exam before,
either because you didn't study well enough or because you were so anxious,
you couldn't remember the answers, this can cause even more anxiety
and a negative attitude every time you have to take another exam.

2. Being unprepared. If you didn't study at all
or didn't study well enough, this can add to your feeling of anxiety.

3. Being afraid of failure. If you connect your sense of self-worth to your exam scores,
The pressure you put on yourself can cause severe test anxiety.
So now that you know the causes of exam anxiety,
How do you overcome this as you prepare November exams.

1. Make sure you're prepared. That means studying for the exam early
Until you feel comfortable with the material.
Don't wait until the night before. Being prepared will boost your confidence,
Which will lessen your exam anxiety, solving enough past questions too helps a lot.

2. Remove all negative thoughts. If you start to feel anxious or have negative thoughts,
Such as "I'm not good enough,"
"I didn't study hard enough,"
"I'm not sure I'm ready"
Push those thoughts away and replace them with positive thoughts.
"I can do this," "I know the material," and "I studied hard,"
can go far in helping to manage your stress level when preparing for your exams.

3. Get enough sleep. A good night's sleep will help your concentration and memory.

4. Avoid the perfectionist trap (I too Know). Don't expect to be perfect.
We all make mistakes and that's okay.
Knowing you've done your best and worked hard is really all that matters, not perfection.
Remember, you don't even need 100% to pass the ICAN exam.

It happened that I went for my senior colleague's 50th birthday,
he introduced me to their only child Ifeanyi.
Ifeanyi is 20 years old, a final year student in the university and
he has just completed his professional level in ICAN.
I was really surprised that at 20 years, Ifeanyi was already Chartered.


His father told me that Ifeanyi started his ICAN journey through ATS
immediately after he finished secondary school.
Ifeanyi's parent were able to guide him through his
career journey because they are well informed.


My case was different,


I became a Chartered Accountant at the age of 36,
even though it looks like it was late, well I still thank God for his grace.
Maybe if I had a mentor or parent to direct me through
my career journey, it wouldn't have been this late.


I wrote Jamb the year I finished secondary school but failed,
so I had to wait for another year, the next year I passed Jamb but
didn't make cut-off for the course I
wanted to study, so I had to wait another year again.......


How I wish I was informed, I would have started and
finish ATS, two years even before I finally
gained admission into the university.


So eventually I started ICAN after I finished the university and
because of my busy schedule, I struggled with passing ICAN exam
because I didn't have time to attend lectures.


When I started working, it was difficult for me to write
ICAN exams due to the nature of my job, I was
always very busy even on weekends, so I could not attend classes.


I had to force myself to write ICAN exams because
when had a new CEO, everything changed suddenly;
I felt humiliated, the junior staffs were all promoted
ahead of me and one of them was made the head of the department.
The company also came up with the policy that
it is compulsory for all Accountants to be Chartered.


Thanks for Video lectures that is now available,
it actually saved me from being sacked.

I am not writing this in regret, but for all parents to learn how
to guide their kids who has interest in becoming an Accountant to
start from ATS immediately after their WAEC.


……. That was an email I received recently.


P.S: The distance between success and failure is just a thin
line called INFORMATION, a lot of people are struggling just
because they don’t have the right information on time.

As the exam is approaching,
there is tendency that you are feeling stress out,
exhausted,
your brain is feeling empty,
you are feeling all choked up
and
you are having all kind thought like:

Am I really ready for this exam?

Have I read enough?

This causes you to lose focus, confidence and concentration.

The truth is, it's ok to feel this way
so stop being hard on yourself, stop feeling guilty about that.

All you need to do is pat yourself on the back
and
go for the exams with enthusiasm
and free your mind because
it is completely ok to feel that way.

One thing you need to avoid is
to think about things you couldn't do,
what topic or chapter you didn't read,
which book or material you have not read
or
your inability to complete the syllabus.

Let go all those thought.

Remember, you only need 50% to pass your ICAN exams.

Keep your mind with positive thought about the exams
and see your confidence boost up.

ICAN is never and will never be a war.

P.S The class summary is the summary of the whole diet class lecture on the telegram class.

I was talking to a student
who showed interest in the Accounting Package
for Personal Self Development and
according to her, she hasn't gotten it
because she was waiting for her friend
with whom she agreed to get it together.

I asked further because I wondered why
she had to wait for her friend before
she got herself engaged in Self-Development
but she couldn't give a concrete response.

I know you might be in a similar situation,
where you are waiting on your
friend,
parent,
brothers or
sister to take that decision
on certain aspect of your life.

But the truth is
in the journey of life, you are your own driver,
if you let others paddle your ship
you may never leave the shore
and if you eventually leave the shore
you will definitely move at their own pace.
So take that big decision and stop waiting
for others to take it for you.

Show them the result of your decision
rather than the process.

The year is going again,
that your friend,
brother,
sister,
husband,
mum or dad you're waiting for
to approve that decision you're trying take
will celebrate you if you eventually succeed
but the sad part is they will also criticize you
if you fail to take that decision to become
better because nobody wants to associate with failure.

Take that bold step to develop your career,
up your skills because your income is equivalent
to the skills and values you can give to your employer.

You can't give what you don't have.
Get the personal development package and
take your career to the level you dream of.

Remember you're the captain of your life.
Nobody should paddle your ship.

Being Chartered makes you a better Accountant
Yet
An investment in the knowledge of the IFRS makes you a different Chartered Accountant.


I know what I passed through just to get Chartered
So when a friend of mine, Jude told me about IFRS and
the fact that I needed an in-depth knowledge, I just waved it off,
‘I cannot come and kill myself’


Years back, I had a serious issue with preparing the company’s
financial statements because my superior expressly told me to implement the IFRS
So I quickly called my friend to fix it up for me.
Jude came to my rescue but billed me for this service.


Actually, I was quite reluctant to engage in anything that
had to do with another round of studying
But when I finally decided to equip myself with the knowledge of IFRS,
I was amazed with my discovery


The knowledge of IFRS helped me set a standard for
preparing financial statements. So whether or not
I’m instructed to implement it,
I already have a platform that guides me in my job


And ever since I’ve had this knowledge, I’ve earned a lot
of respect from my superiors because nothing within
the radar of my job description passes me unnoticed, as
there is a standard and a principle that guides me in
performing my duty as a Chartered Accountant.

I’ve been Chartered for 22 years now and I can tell for sure that
being Chartered is important, but having the knowledge of IFRS is importanter

It made me different,

it made me consistent,

it helped me set standard for my work

And when we implemented it,
it gave credibility to my company

AND

more credibility to me too.

P.S: The world is already full of geniuses, so striving to be a genius is almost like being one of them. If you want to be outstanding, be different.

Hello Friend,

In the first article, we talked about why it’s important to eliminated the convincing mentality of always thinking we still have enough time left for your preparations

And also share a story of one of our students who could not meet up preparing well for the last diet exams because not still having enough time to prepare syndrome.

Today, we will be talking about the resulting effect of not starting your CIS exams preparation on time…

Like I clearly stated in part one

We all know it’s important to start preparing but at the back of our mind we know we have days, weeks and months before sitting in the exam hall.

So the spirit of procrastinating will start setting in and our enthusiasm to fully start preparing for the exams to avoid last minute drama will then come to a halt,

We start telling and encouraging ourselves not to worry because we are in control of every arrangement and preparations for the exams when in reality we are not

As well as wasting what could be constructive study time, evidence suggests that procrastination is unhelpful for a number of reasons.

Research from a number of Universities backs up the idea that spacing your study over a longer period gives you better understanding of the subject matter and a better memory retainingcapacity of what you have studied.

And much more importantly, free you from cramming and intense anxiety resulting from trying to meet up with the exams date

In most cases, cramming can lead you to believe you have studied the important thing well and will remember them in the exams hall,

But instead in the exams hall,we will start recognizing some fragrance of what we crammed here and there that we can’t constructively and reasonably put together again when the exams question appears in front of us.

And then the only thing that will be left of us will be regrets of why we could not start preparing for our exams early enough like the story of the lady in part one.

Rushing and struggling in the last minutes to prepare for your exams is less likely to help you remember the important information you will need to write your exams and be successful.

So by leaving your study until the last minute, you are likely to feel worse and perform below your real ability!
P.S. don’t leave your exams preparations to last minutes to avoid limiting your chances of success the next diet March 2020.

Sincerely,
Ashakia Sanctus

When you just look at your child and wonder
“why is it that this child so lazy and
unmotivated to do anything especially school work?”

And this can be very frustrating
you just feel that the child is the problem and
you focus your energy on that child changing
and not what is really causing the problem.

if you feel a little bit confuse,
let me share a personal story with you

When I was younger my mum complained
a lot about me being too slow and not smart
even at my home chores and my school work
She talked about it like I deliberately decided
to be slow or not smart

This made me feel like she didn’t really care
about me even when I know she is my mother
I didn’t really feel like changing to be smarter
or better,
it just made me more stubborn

This affected my education till Senior Secondary School,
even when I became wiser and knew that it was
from a place of love.
By then it was a bit late because I had failed
a lot and repeated some classes.

This got me thinking…
Maybe if she had paid attention to the problem
and not me, I would be more motivated
to change or do better .

Also

My aunt’s son Seun was very stubborn
he didn’t like to read at all. Anytime his mum asked him
to read, he would practically hit his leg on the floor and grumbled.

When my aunty noticed this
she spoke to him calmly to understand
what the real problem was
and she addressed the reason he was always
reluctant to study.
With this, he became motivated and was ready
to learn because he didn’t feel like he was attacked.

As an educationist, I have discovered
that the problem with most children and teenager
is they feel unmotivated to read.
But if you make the problem all about them
and not seeking to know the problem and
why they act the way they act,
they will continue to throw tantrums and be more difficult

This is how you can go about it
Let your child know that you care about
who he or she is as a person

Connect with your child over things
that interests him or her (this works a lot)
and then bring up the conversation about the problem
and how you can both find solution to it
Discuss their favourite hobbies with them

This will help your child to understand that
while he or she may be struggling, you’ll be there the entire way.
And this feeling will actually motivate your child
to do better I their education

P S: It very important for you to understand your child
and how you can help them to do better in their education
and reach their fullest potential. You can also introduce
new educational material that will help your child learn
faster and easier with the WAEC video lecture.

Hello Friend,

Self-discipline is one of the keys to living to your full potential.
If you can be disciplined with your daily actions
you can achieve anything that you set your mind to

For most of us, self-discipline is a work in progress wrapped
in good intentions, procrastination, self-doubt and
feelings of the fear of failure.

But in reality, it doesn’t have to be.
Self-discipline, like everything else- Requires practice.

Though not every day will always be perfect,
but each day with its failures and small wins, is progress.
And that’s what self-discipline is all about.

Yes I know our careers and working life is actually a long one
and very challenging. It’s always easy for most of us to
let it slide past if we find ourselves in a comfortable job
and lack the will power to push for more.

So many of us set our ambitions aside as long as
we can pay the bills and the workday is bearable.

The people that win at last are those who don’t
just dream big, who don’t just work hard,
but who keep in mind a strategy and follow it consistently.

Be it trying to develop your career,
searching for a better opportunity in your career life, or
just going that extra mile in your present position to earn a promotion.

This is where I stop for today,

Always remember, it is not enough to dream big. It takes a lot more than that and I am willing to share what it takes with you in my next article.

It is about 40days or more to the ICAN March diet exams

I'm sure you've made up your mind
about writing the Mach diet,
if you haven't, then you need
to decide ASAP (As Soon As Possible)
becausetaking the decision to write ICAN
is the first step to succeed in your ICAN examination.

When studying for an exam like ICAN,
it is important to know the secret to success.
Passing ICAN exam is easy if you know the golden rule.

A student last diet asked me,
“What do I need to do to pass ICAN exams?”
I simply told her "Solve Past Questions"
She was surprised so
I repeated: Solve Past Questions
She asked again:
After solving past questions, what else should I do?
So I said: My dear Solve past questions.

You might be wondering why I lay

emphasis on solving past questions.

Solving past questions help you to
have a general idea about a particular subject
and you could easily guess the
important topics of that subject.

It also helps you know the time allocated
to the subject so you can efficiently
manage your time.
solving past questions gives you an idea
about the pattern of the exam paper.

Solving past questions is a great way
to revise the entire syllabus quickly

It is therefore necessary for you to give
some time to go through the past questions
as you prepare for your March diet ICAN exams.

The Young lady I talked about took
my advice for the last diet exams,
got access to our special members' area
where we have more than 1000(One Thousand)
solved past questions,
She solved and solved enough past questions,
She called after the exams to thank me for the advice
as she saw two of the questions
she had solved during her preparation for the exams.

She passed the two courses she wrote and
she's writing the final two this diet using the same strategy

You also can get access to the
special members' area where you have the privilege
of over 1000 solved past questions,
weekly likely exam questions,
the class summary, and the lecture soft copy.

Kindly Call these numbers 09076786154, 09060404765, 08085378906, 08023428420, 07086810335
07038174484, 08074460975, 08123189141.



PS: ICAN does not go to heaven to
manufacture questions, solving past questions
boost your confidence.
Call Now to get access to over
1000 past questions on any ICAN course.

I have discovered that most CITN students

abandon their CITN exams because

that find it difficult to combine working and

studying due to their busy work schedule.


I know it is never easy because

I experienced the same too.

Going for lectures on weekend was not convenient

for me because that was when I was supposed

to be relaxing after the hectic weekly work.

If you are in this situation, you are not alone,

most CITN students are experiencing the same too.

So, does it mean we should neglect our exam

and concentrate on our job?

or

resign from work and finish CITN exams, then find another job?

The answer to both questions is capital NO.
You need your CITN certificate

to get a better job or get promotion and

you need the job to sustain yourself,

family and even to finance your CITN exams.


Wondering how you can eat your cake and also have it?

Ok let me show you how.

Forget physical lectures and use video lecture.

With video lecture you can study at your convenience and

finish the syllabus within a stipulated time frame.


P.S: While stress yourself with physical class,
when you can use video lectures?
If it takes 10 hours to finish 150 pages book,
it will take just 2 hours to finish
the same book in a video format.......

Don’t you think you really need CITN video lectures NOW?

In the previous article, I gave one question to ask yourself before giving up on your CIS career dreams, so today, I will be giving you three questions to ask yourself before you make that decision of giving up on your CIS career dreams

2. Is the reason I really want to quit pursuing this goal worth it?

Often the primary reason to why you want to abandon this project is because you are afraid it will be another wasting of your time and resources all over again.
Because you are afraid you are going to fail again
But if you don’t keep going, you will never know how far you could have gone
And you will miss out on being the person you would have become.

3. Am I acting on impulse or emotion instead of thinking things through?

Sometimes our emotions give us hints about what we want and what we should do,
But other times, they are just responses to stress, and maybe even indications we are on the right track.
If you act on that moment of intense emotion; be it anger, fear, or frustration,
You may regret it once the wave has passed.
So sit back, take note of what you are feeling
Feel it fully, without judging it or yourself.
Then act when you have gotten to the other side.
Then at least you will know you made the decision in a moment of peace and clarity
Which I know definitely would not be you quitting.

4. How much have I already put in?

How much have you invested?
How much money and time have you devoted to becoming chartered?
How many sacrifices have you made?
Are you really willing to chalk it all up as a loss Just because you are not feeling confident in your abilities?
What about the career opportunities that accompanies it?
Are you ready to take that risk to regret later?
I guess not…
Because as the saying goes; the pain of discipline is always better than the pain of regret.
Let me conclude by asking you this question;
Assuming your best friend was in your shoes, would you advise him or her to give up because he can’t possibly reach his goals?
I also guess not…
I guess you would practice your finest motivational speech and help him see what a great potential you see in him or her.
Unless you are secretly a “frenemy” who hopes he fails in life
The truth is that you would push him to his best…
So why not push yourself?
It may sound tacky, but you need to be your own best friend,
More than anyone one else in the world,
Deserve your own believe and motivation.
If after asking yourself all these questions and still feel determined about your decision to give up,
Then good luck to abandoning your dreams goal of becoming a stockbroker.
But if you don’t…
If there is some lingering doubt, then keep working towards that dream that you know will elevate your career and give you that self-fulfillment.

P.S. Take a different approach if you need to, but whatever you do, don’t give yourself a reason to one day tell yourself, “I quit because it was too challenging for me and scared because I believed it was beyond me.
Because you might regret it later in life, and if you’re delaying it, you’ll question yourself why didn’t you do it sooner?

You are better off a Chartered Stock-broker.

Starry Gold Academy: No 1 Tuition center with the highest exam pass rate at one sitting for professional
exams in Nigeria.

In my first article I talked about how important
it is for you to do your findings
about the secondary school your child
is going to write his or her WAEC
before you register your child in that school.




The second thing you should also know
is that a lot of secondary schools don’t finish
the WAEC syllabus because of how voluminous it is.
That is why most schools have extra lessons
in the evening so as to help students
catch up with the WAEC syllabus.

Even with this, schools are still struggling
to cover the whole syllabus and this
will not help to get the students fully
equipped or ready for the exam.

This is one of the main reasons
why some students fail their WAEC exams-
because they didn’t have enough time
to go through the whole syllabus,
not to talk of time to revise.

So the solution here, is for you
to get educational materials that can help
your child cover the WAEC syllabus on time
and even have extra time for revision
which is the key to retaining information
and achieving success in their exam.

With the WAEC video lecture, your child
will be able to study faster and easier.
Research has it that students learn faster
and retain more information through video lecture.

So instead of your child to spend
like 10 hours trying read a textbook,
your child can use three hours to listen through
that same textbook in a video form.
Through this your child will be able to
finish his or her syllabus on time and
also have extra time for revision which
is very crucial to passing the examination at one sitting

PS: The time to repair the roof is when the sun is shining- According to John F. Kennedy
Let me put it differently,
the best time to repair a leaking roof
is before the rain start to fall.
So do your child a favor by preparing
him/her for success early enough.

Sometimes studying for an exam like ICAN
can be so difficult because you have graduated
for a long time and your brain has switched completely
from academics to strictly money making mode.

This was the case of one of our students.

“I am a slow learner that has graduated some 14yrs back.
But the fear I have for failure has made me
not to even attempt ICAN Exam.
Now I’m determined to face it. But when I read
I hardly understand and assimilate because
what I’m seeing now is quite different from what I use to
know while in school.

What can I do please?”

If you find yourself in this kind of situation,
then sit back, relax and see solution below;
It is not going to be easy but it is possible,
so you need to be determine and be positive
that you will pass ICAN exams.

In the previous article, I gave you one reason
why you need to start early preparation.
I told you that it gives room for unpredictable event.

Today, I will be sharing the other 2 reasons why you need to start early preparation

2. MAXIMIZE REVISION:
A month before the exam, I called for a review of all the
important formulas. Doing the ‘Adapt and practice exam
questions and answers’ method gave me that much needed
review. I was feeling good about the exam when it finally came
as I had covered every single topic on the exam thoroughly.
I was prepared for whatever outcome may come on the exam
day as I had tried my best and had no regrets. As a result,
I passed all my papers on my first trial.



3. IT PREVENTS EXAM ANXIETY, HELPS MANAGE TIME
AND AVOID THE USUAL ALL-NIGHT:
Cramming causes anxiety, which lowers your
ability to retain information. By creating a balanced
study plan and schedule, you will be able to study
each subject in its entirety and ultimately boost your
test performance. Almost every professional student
pulls an all-night, but it is a bad idea. Associate
Professor of Psychology at St. Lawrence University(New York, USA)
once said that all-nighters impair reasoning and memory
for as long as four days. Sometimes, student that do
all night tend to fall seriously ill after the end of the exam.


To your Success,

STARRY GOLD ACADEMY

PS: The fundamental key to success is definitely early preparation.

properly and boosts your confidence before the exam.

One of our student recently asked
“what is the magic in passing ICAN exams?”
I wanted to tell her that there’s no magic
at all but, i sat down and thought about it.

What if there is actually a magic
you can use to pass one of
the toughest exams in Nigeria.

So i checked the dictionary
for the meaning of magic.
According to wikipedia

"Magic is an illusion of seemingly
impossible feats using natural means."

When few student pass and many others fail,
it looks like magic to those who fail.
So i concluded that there isn't magic
to pass ICAN exams but there are certain
things you can actually do to join those that pass.

Part of this is early preparation,
most students wait till few weeks before
they start preparing for their exams,
putting themselves under intense pressure.

Nothing beats early preparation,
this gives you time to read, assimilate,
understand and remember everything you've read.

Reading under pressure stresses
your brain and causes exam anxiety.

P.S.: Early preparation is the only ICAN magic

Does that ring a bell? Or trigger the question in your heart…

What is my net worth?

It is not how long you have work. It is not the number of company you have worked in. It is the impact you make that makes the difference.

If you chose to resign from where you work today, what will you be remembered for? Are you developing yourself? Are you adding value to yourself and your company?

You cannot give what you do not have.

If you pass by like everybody, then you will pass away like everybody. But when you do beyond other, then you have a LEGACY.

If you look back to last five years back, can you say ‘I am far better than I used to be?’

Do not wait till you are 60 years before measuring your success. Start it now, ensure no year passes you by unachieved, you are not getting younger.

Your 60 years start today, what step of personal development have you taken?


2019 is going again, are you still saying tomorrow, today is the tomorrow you mentioned yesterday. Tomorrow will continue until we breathe our last breath. Make that decision TODAY OR NEVER.

If you do nothing, you’ll get nothing and you will become nothing. And your net worth will be nothing.

If you want to add more to your Financial Accounting Career,
then you need an indepth-knowledge of the IFRS

The understanding of the IFRS is not only for those
who plan to seat for the IFRS (ACCA Certificate or Diploma) exams,
it is for anyone who knows that knowledge is power and
plans to take advantage of that power.

IFRS is not only for people who work in multinational
companies but for anyone who understands the essence of value
even in local business unit.

The International Financial Reporting Standards are set of
standards primarily based on some fundamental
principles of transparency, credibility and consistency.
So that any organization or business unit that can
implement these standards has successfully
projected a credible outlook.

So if you have the knowledge of the IFRS, you will not only
know how to implement it for the benefit of your company,
but you will be able to tell which company is
credible enough to invest in and which is not.


This knowledge can be another tool in your hands for you to
begin to manage investment portfolios for clients-
in other words, you have become an investment manager.

And if you want, you can begin to offer advice to
clients on which company to invest in and which not-
in other words, you have become a consultant.

And for your own financial growth, you can determine
which business unit to invest in and which not.

PS: The world has gone beyond waiting for opportunities, nowadays, people create their own opportunity. You too can create your own opportunity by equipping yourself with the necessary knowledge

The WAEC examination is
one of the most important exams
that will grantee your child stay in the university.

Some months back,
it was announced that some WAEC results were impounded
by the council because they were involved
in some sort of examination malpractice
about 26 years ago.

Now the exam malpractice maybe
because the student cheated or
because the school has always been
involved in examination malpractice
which is now known to the examination board.

I remembered two years after I
wrote my WAEC exams, my cousin also wrote hers
but she failed even when she wrote it
twice in the same school. Eventually,
she passed her WAEC exams after
she registered in another school.
Later on, we heard of the school’s involvement
in exam malpractices over the years
which affected the result of students
whether the student cheated or not.

Now the solution to this is for us as parents
to do our findings well before registering
your child in a school for the WAEC exam
I know you may say that most children write
their WAEC in the secondary school they attend.

This simply means that you should do
your findings from the beginning.
This will help you make clear and accurate decision
because the whole goal of the secondary School is
for your child to pass all the WAEC subject at one sitting
and not have to waste an extra year re-writing WAEC.

Also in other to prepare your child
and not look for ‘special center’
or assist them in cheating, you can help
build confidence in them as they sit
for their final exams.
One way to do that is to get the new
educational material that will help your child
study easier and faster for the exam.

With the WAEC video lecture, your child
will be able to study faster, easier and will also retain more
of what he or she has studied.

P S: Now that you have the knowledge
on how your child can succeed in the upcoming exam,
it is better to act on it FAST and NOW

Expect my second article where I will talk about the second mistake you should avoid.

This is not a question of placing
the knowledge of SAGE 50 ahead of your
OND, B.Sc or being a Chartered Accountant.
It is more of you understanding the TOOLS
you need to work with as an Accountant,
so there is no basis for comparing.


My friend’s son, Joshua who just finished
his NYSC program, told me that
he had gone for more than four
different interviews for the post of an Accountant
but could not get the jobs because
the interviewers always asked if
he is proficient in the use of SAGE 50.


The last company he went for interview
even gave him the opportunity to go and
learn SAGE 50 for 3 weeks and come back
for practical interview.


Joshua asked “I have SSCE, B.Sc and now
I’m a Chartered Accountant but why
are the companies focusing more on SAGE 50?”


My answer was that- SAGE 50 is the application
that most companies use for their daily accounting task.


SAGE 50 is an application that is used
for accounting purposes, so if you must work
with those companies, you must learn how to use SAGE 50”


Though there are other alternative
accounting applications apart from SAGE 50,
but since most companies in Nigeria use
SAGE 50 accounting application for their accounting task…
You just need to follow the trend if
you must be relevant as an Accountant.

If you are in Lagos,
it is no news that the Lagos State Government
has banned the use of Okada and Keke.
this ban has made movement within the state more tedious,

How does this affect your preparation
for the March diet ICAN exams if you stay in Lagos?
I spent close to three hours on a journey of
30 minutes from Egbeda to Ikeja.
That’s three hours of wasted time,
a time that would have been used to do more productive things.

This would be worse on Saturdays because of
the different owambes within the Lagos metropolis.
Imagine going for your ICAN class and
you are stuck in traffic for two, three hours,
you would have missed part of the class
and even get to the class exhausted.
Your concentration level will definitely be on the low
because of the stress of staying long in traffic,

What about going back home?
You have to face the same stress,
making you tired and stressed out
that you won't even feel like reading and revising

And studies has shown that
"you only get 50% of what is taught in class but
revising it immediately after class increases it to about 70%".

So how do you overcome this challenge,
as you prepare for the march diet exam?

What if I tell you, you can always take
your lecturer with you everywhere you go

What if I tell you that you can study and
pass your ICAN march exams
without stepping out of your home.
Studying for ICAN exams should be stress-free
and that's what I want for you as a professional student.

Do you want to find out how to take
your lecturer with you everywhere you go?

Kindly call 08123189141, 09076786154,
08023428420, 07086810335, 07038174484,


P:S: Spending three hours in traffic isn't a good idea
for you as you prepare for your march diet exams.
Take your lecturer with you everywhere and study anytime.

I was surprised when I saw the news
on December 4th 2019,
the West African Examination Council(WAEC)
withdrew some 1992, 1993 candidate examination certificate.

Upon reading the news,
I discovered that those results were impounded
because they were involved in all
sorts of examination malpractice.

You might want to say it's been
26years ago, yes but this has
a lot of other implications.

I also read that
Joint Admission and Matriculation Board(JAMB)
has also identified those candidates
and are taking steps to work with
the institution they graduated from
to denounce their certificate.

After reading the news, it got me thinking
“this could have happened to me
if I was involved in some sort of malpractice.”
So,
“Can I allow this to happen to my children?"

A child who you have celebrated
because he/she has written,
passed his/her WAEC, passed JAMB,
got admission and even graduated,
only to realize all those achievements
will be withdrawn and reversed because
of an action that you could have prevented.

Nothing beats peace of mind
knowing you got all your achievements
without cutting corners to achieve.

You can save yourself and your child
the stress, trauma, shame and agony
that comes with this kind of situation
by helping them prepare adequately for their exams.

Get them to read, understand
and solve enough past questions
even before getting to their finals
(SS3) in their secondary schools.

This cannot be achieved
with the school lectures alone,
because the truth is "NO SCHOOL"
can cover the whole WAEC syllabus before the exams.

But I have solution and better option
that can help your child prepare,
sit and pass his/her WAEC without
involving in exam malpractice if well utilized.

It is the comprehensive WAEC video lecture on all the subject.

The video material cover
all the topics from SS1 - SS3
and has about 10years past questions,
well solved and explained in details.

Science students are also not
left out with well solved alternative to practical.

Help your child protect and save his/her
future by getting them to prepare for their WAEC exams NOW.

1. Practice, Practice & More Practice


It is impossible to study calculation subjects properly by just reading and listening. To study calculation courses, you have to roll up your sleeves and actually solve some problems.

The more you practice answering the calculation problems, the better.

Each problem has its own characteristics and it’s important to have solved it in numerous ways before tackling the exam.

There is no escaping this reality, to do well in a calculation exam,
you need to have solved a LOT of problems beforehand.

2. Review Errors

When you’re practicing with the problems (questions), it’s important to –

Work Through the Process for each Solution.

If you have made any mistakes, you should review them and understand where your problem-solving skills let you down.

Understanding how you approached the problem and where you went wrong is a great way of becoming stronger and avoiding the same mistakes in the future.

3. Master the Key Concepts


Do not try to memorize the processes.

This is counter-productive. It is much better and rewarding in the long-run to focus on understanding
the process and logic that is involved. This will help you understand how you should approach such problems in the future.

Remember that calculation subject is SEQUENTIAL, so it’s important to have a firm understanding of the key concepts that forms the basis for a topic before moving on to work on a more complex solutions which are based on understanding the basics.

So here is where I put down my pen. Please look forward to my next article as I give you more tips on soving calculation courses

Hello Friend,

“So much to read and so little time left...
How am I supposed to meet up now?”
Whether you’ve fallen behind on your preparations
due to chronic procrastination or something totally out of your control,
it’s fine. You’ve got this.
Here are some top tips to help you complete your preparations in time for the exams;

Don’t panic…

It’s natural to feel the need to panic when you realize
you’re no longer on track with your preparations.
When you feel your heart is sinking and the frustration rising,
stop and take a moment to calm down.
There is absolutely no point in panicking,
it will only make you feel worse and stop you from
focusing on your studies.

It’s now more important than ever
to keep your cool –
reading with a level head will allow you to focus
and absorb what you’re reading.

Please don’t start comparing yourself to others
who seem to have gone far ahead of you.
Dedicate your energy instead to catching up with your own work.

A fear faced is a fear defeated…

Look at the contents of your syllabus and make a note of the topics you
feel least comfortable with.
You might feel like avoiding these topics to read them
but actually these are the ones you should start with.
They might seem scary now but once
you dive in and break the topics down you’ll begin to understand them.
This will even help you gain confidence
as the topics worrying you most are now out of the way.

Read exams past Questions and their mark schemes…

Past questions are effective revision tools
and are good for checking if you’ve really understood the subject.
Ideally, you are to do all the papers in exam conditions
then cross check your work with our solutions on the members area.
Studying the past paper questions and solving them
will enable you to be familiar with the questions and
also to picture them while in exams hall.
For Maths questions, take note of the steps shown
in the mark scheme so you know how to lay out
your answer to maximize on your method marks.
You can also look through exam papers to find questions on
topics you don’t understand. Practice these questions
instead of the paper as a whole for some intensified and targeted revision.

Study smart…

Pick the best resources to study from depending on
how much time you have left before the exam.
For Instance; if it is only limited time left but lots of work to do,
use revision guides and videos rather than
textbooks or making your own notes from scratch.
It might feel like you’ve run out of time to revise
so use your time efficiently. Have some revision notes on hand
while you’re on the bus or waiting for the kettle to boil.
But while doing that, just be careful
and don’t spend every spare minute you have on revisionand overload your brain –
it’s important to know your limits!

Don’t wait to ask for help…

If you come across something that has you completely lost
don’t be afraid to ask for help.
Go to our telegram platform and ask the lecturers or
even your friends to go through the topic with you.
It’s too close to exams to just ignore
what you don’t understand and
it’ll save you some precious time if you get someone to help you.
If you’re generally feeling like the stress of exams
is becoming too much, speak to someone you trust
for some support or even chart with Admin on Telegram
for any sort of help you will might need.

Talking about your worries is often all it takes to make them feel better.
Remember, your mental state is just as essential
as studying when it comes to doing well in exams.
