Bible Reading: Proverbs 3: 5-6, Jeremiah 29: 11-13
Memory Verse: Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand. Proverbs 19:21 (ESV)
Please don’t get me wrong. Go for a bachelor’s degree if you can. Go for as many certifications as possible if need be. Formal education broadens your mind. However, being financially stable in this changing world goes beyond having a degree from a University. Consider this:
1. A degree holder is not prepared to produce chips but he is very happy to work for a chips’ company.
2. A degree holder is not prepared to sell popcorn in the street but is very happy to work in a company’s outlet in the city and roam river-sides.
3. A degree holder is not prepared to sell second hand clothes but he’s very happy to be employed by a bank selling stocks and looking for customers under scorching sun.
4. A degree holder is not prepared to make $300 (#150,000) monthly doing his own business, but he’s very happy to work late in a firm that pays him $50 (#25,000).
5. A degree holder is not prepared to start a company and grow it in five years, but will spend five years searching for a job.
6. A degree holder is not prepared to sell food to students but will be happy to be reporting to a boss with no qualifications as Office Assistant as long as he is paid $60 (#30,000) for a salary.
7. A degree holder is so eager to relocate from his country in order to work in another country than spend time developing his own country.
8. A degree holder staying in a foreign land is very quick to condemn his home country but never contribute to the development of this country.
9. A degree holder especially from Africa would rather sweep the streets of London or USA than start a business to make money in her father land – others work in people’s homes doing some work (cleaners).
10. A degree holder will watch porn on his laptop but never sit to write a book using the same laptop to sell and make money.
11. A degree holder will blame the government for lack of jobs even after he was on government bursary for him to have his degree.
12. Nigeria is blessed with young people who have master’s degree and others are doctors in different technical fields such as IT and Engineering but have failed to create a cartoon character or develop a movie from the same, instead they are very happy to buy Tom and Jerry for their children thereby promoting American and UK movie industry.
Quote: Own your stuff, own your business, own your way – TylerPerry
