Whatever problem he is trying to solve by banning alcohol, will only be made worse, by driving up dependence on harder and even more destructive substances. The solution is in handling, critical issues like youth education, youth employment, poverty and mental health. |

Almantra: Pls I don't know if it's because of many years of being an introvert that causes this problem that is affecting because i am always weak I can't run raise my voice. Some say I act like a woman.even if I want to act agile or fast I can't .I just started a job that requires being strong ,fast,and bold but I can't do all that and the manager and supervisor are not finding it right with me. 
Because even the ladies there at my workplace are more stronger, faster than me in doing the job,and they even start asking me if I am medically fit
Pls any tips or supplements that I can use to behave energetic pls I will appreciate thanks. Aim to do at least 100 push ups and 50 squats a day, for the next 90 days. (You can.take breaks on Sundays or days after very physically stressful days) It's great on days when you may not be feeling very physically strong but maybe even best on days when you are not feeling mentally strong. Don't forget , as a Man thinketh in His heart, so is He. Make sure you pace your self, even if it means doing in sets of 10 or 5. |

Whichever way, she cannot be deported to Nigeria. Good luck to her. The hunger you are experiencing must be really bad, for you to reduce the UK to just a "food-in country". Keep deceiving yourself, like they are handing out free baskets of food over there. It is up to you to make the best of wherever you are. If you continue to see Nigeria as a Shithole country, it will continue to be a shit hole for you. |

Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Why Are Tech Jobs Difficult To Get? by TheGift: 5:32pm On Feb 18, 2025 |
larryUG: I didnt say the person should lie. One thing you need to know about Job hunting is that you need to tailor your cv to the role in question. No one says you lie. It is possible that the person has gotten some skills in data analytics but the CV is not tailored to reflect that. Thanks for clarifying |
Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Why Are Tech Jobs Difficult To Get? by TheGift: 3:23pm On Feb 18, 2025 |
larryUG: Having a certification alone will not land you a job. What lands people jobs, especially non entry-level jobs, is the work experience. The certification will only count if you have the requisite related experience in Data Analysis. if your previous job didnt have anything to do with data analytics, then applying for such a job in the hope that your certificate will land you a role is useless, except it is an entry-level role.
My advice, tailor your CV to that of an experienced data analyst if you have not done so. Should he lie that he has experience when he doesn't have experience? That is how he will go and embarrass Himself or bungle things when it comes to executing. Why not just apply for internships or entry-level roles to start building experience? |
Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Why Are Tech Jobs Difficult To Get? by TheGift: 3:18pm On Feb 18, 2025 |
You fell for the market hype of techjobs, especially the likes of data analytics. Many people thinking they can learn enough in 12 weeks to start commanding earnings in the tens of thousands of dollars. Knowledge is one thing, experience is another. Employers and clients, pay for the experience. As someone who as done some hiring for product development teams, i can tell you that some aspects of the tech jobs, especially the likes of data analytics and ui/ux design are over-saturated. For every one full-stack developer application, I got almost 20 UI?UX or data analysts application. Yet all I need is one, and they are not usually required for a long time, unlike the more technical roles. But even the technical roles are being challenged with the advent of A.I. In deciding your career path, don't go with the hype. Start with passion and talent. And dont look at what is booming now, but what willl be booming in the next 5-10 years. adaperry25: The noise about tech got into my head and I quit my 8-5 job. Though the 8-5 job was becoming stressful and toxic, I couldn't cope and had to leave.
I had saved some funds and learned data analytics. Now here is where the issue lies.
I've applied to more than a thousand jobs and I keep getting rejections.
My hope was to get a remote job but I'm not seeing it coming.
Is tech all about noise or it's just saturated?
While learning , we were told a data analyst earns 30k USD annually. I'm just getting tired and frustrated |

AllenSpencer: Don’t let anybody lie you!
If you have saving and assets, sell it off and leave the country. Nigeria is heading nowhere.
I have a friend who sold all he has in Nigeria, and moved to the UK. He is currently changing diapers for adults and doing fine. Another one resigned from a bank in Nigeria and used all his assets and savings to Japa to US, hommie is currently lifting boxes at Amazon during the day and doing uber at night, and he is doing fine. You need to see their pictures on Facebook to confirm the big life they can afford.
You just need to be determined, in a space of 6 months , you should be able to recover all you sold in Nigeria. Is that the best advise you have for your country men? run to another man's country, as full grown man, to go and change the diapers of older men or women? What happened to purpose in life? Why is it that all we can think about and what drives our decisions is food to put in our mouth? |

Health › Re: My True Horror Story Of Crack Addiction And Recovery Process by TheGift: 5:00pm On Nov 24, 2024 |
crackaholic: Hello Guys
I've been very much occupied with several tasks so I haven't been able to write here for a while.
Well I'm back
It's well up to three weeks since I've abstained from Crack. I must say in this Short while, my life is changing greatly though at a steady slow pace. Here are a few things about my behavioral changes since I quit crack cocaine.
- I'm now meeting up with my work responsibilities. - I'm now neater and more hygienic. I make sure the few clothes I have I keep them all fully neat and tidied at all times. My environment, my room, my kitchen everything always well arranged at neat. These are things I cared less about and left unkept while I was taking crack. - I am now focused on living a better life. Starting to have savings even though I'm not yet earning much. - Decreased independence on people. - I can now spend more time on myself sitting alone in my room or an isolated place. Before I was always moved to keep moving around. - I have developed interest in returning back to my educational pursuits though I haven't started. - My mental health is greatly improved. I no longer forget so much and I can now make vital decisions correctly. - Couldn't stay in a relationship previous and all my friends deserted me. Only family had my back. - Working hard to pay off my debt and improve myself. No longer focused on working to buy more crack cocaine to smoke.
The urge still comes in from to time but I do my possible best to get it off my mind. I can watch a movie, go out to chat with friends, take sleep meds or eat when I get the urge.
I'll write more on the challenges I faced in my past days of crack addiction later. I have to attend to my work.
Cc Lalasticlala Try meditation. A lot of our addictions, regardless of the kind, are because we are not at home with ourselves, and are seeking stimulations to escape. Meditation, done overtime, will teach us to be centered, get rid of a restless mind, and become at home with ourselves. |
Family › Re: My 3 Year Old Daughter Is Behaving Strange by TheGift: 8:05pm On Nov 06, 2024 |
RSAV: Experienced parents please comment. My 3 year old daughter, she would be 4 years old in Feb, is sharp and very bright. It only happened occasionally that she would pee on herself. Usually when engrossed in cartoon.
However, it the last 4 weeks, it has become an everyday occurrence. She would even poo on herself!
I've talked to her, yet no serious change. I just had a baby boy few weeks ago. Could this be responsible for the change in my daughter? If yes, how best can it be handled? It's already affecting her in school. There is nothing so strange about what is happening to your daughter. it might just be a way that she is dealing with her still-forming emotions. My Son started the same thing when he was about the same age. And he stopped within a few weeks. Like you said (even though it may not make sense to some people here) . it may be related to your newborn, She is processing the reality of the fact that she is no longer the center of attraction. Be patient with her. Trying to have a serious adult conversation with her about it, may be counter productive. If a three year old is peeing is school, it is a only a problem if the school and parents make it so. Let them be kids, at least until 5. God knows what you were doing at 3. All the best. |

Captain4Jehovah:
One does not need to fear death as a Christian Yes, one does not need to fear death as a Christian. But that is not what the OP is speaking about. He is speaking about the feeling of loss that one feels. That is why the scripture says "we do not mourn as those without hope" (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18) not that "we" do not mourn. Even Jesus wept, with other mourners at Lazarus' grave. (John 11:35) Being Christian does not make us immune from feelings of loss, only that we should not lose hope. |

Solofresh2: The two things that makes me sad about life whenever I think about it is losing a loved one and a loved one losing me to death😥
Even if we pray to live very long can we really move on from living to see some of our loved ones die.
When I think about death, it makes me feel sad and heartbroken. The only reason you feel sad about losing a loved ones or loved ones losing you, is because you people shared love. You cant have loss without love, we have to learn to embrace the bitter with the sweet. The best thing you can do for you and your loved ones is to live each moment with gratitude, joy, and hope. There is nothing gained from living in anxiety about something we have no control over. Who knows whats on the other side? One thing I know is that love never dies. Enjoy it as it lasts and while it lasts. |
