See how you can grow from zero to a billionaire in Nigeria.
How a broke teenage orphan can succeed in Nigeria.
In a country like Nigeria where there is only few people, having enough daily meal and where the wealth of the nations has been looted away to foreign countries.
And, there is too much competition in the economic system to the extent that making daily living can be so hard for average families.
Where, an adult survivor, left with no personal inheritance, can pass through the hole of the needle, in order to succeed.
I don't know about where a younger orphan will have to pass through, in order to succeed. Or should the person, just suffer and survive until their dead-end?
No! Maybe because, there is always a green light in the end of every dark tunnel, there are always perhaps, some hopes of success for the confident and the informed.
That is why I am giving you this information, on how an unfortunate young orphan can succeed in Nigeria, depending solely on his / her own God given abilities.
Note: Ignorance can make a prince to live with a wealth and be very broke or useless. Therefore, at the other hand, knowledge can make a pauper to have more than enough, and make a huge influence; so, seek wisdom.
Here are things you should know and do to succeed in a tough country like this as a young orphan without waiting for anyone to give you money or house.
Build self confidence:
Self confidence begins with trying to find out the ability you have as a human being to make changes to your world. Self confidence is built from within, through; positive affirmations, record of little successes made over times ago.
It is a gut you have to be able to set a goal, and actually work towards it without fear or self doubt.
Confidence is an emotional state of mind but it cannot be hidden, because it shows on results. Confidence, manifests in speech, emotional control, body language. Etc.
Study the law:
This helps you to avoid waste of time in prison, waste of energy hustling in vain. Knowing the law can help you make smart decisions, and avoid those ones that can land you in prison; and can also prevent wasting your money getting involved in illegal businesses, that can get your resources wasted.
You see there are four things that can help you as an entrepreneur throughout your stay in business. To be a millionaire, you should study them and make them your friend. As an employer, you need them because they are very crucial to your business. They are inevitable, and you cant make a good business owner without them. These four key fields of study, you shouldnt overlook are: Investment management, accounting and Law. I call them the IMA-LAW principle.
Look within you: -
There are powers, abilities and capabilities given to you naturally by your creator which you are yet to discover. There are talents you have which you neglect often, and this might help you a lot in survival. Look, God creates not any non-sense. He made all living things with adaptive features with which they survive every situation they have. What can make someone not succeed easily is not using the characteristics naturally given to him by God. So, find out what made you unique, and start to use them to influence people, making some changes to them and bring home some rewards.
Look around you: -
The summary of the Napoleon Hill's global bestselling book, think and grow rich is that everything you need to grow extremely rich is within and around you. It is left for you to "think and grow rich".
What do you have now?
Many people keep cowering under tyrannical job for many years having nothing to benefit, no good pay, and no time to breathe a breath of life, no relationship with people of external world, who matter to them and may have absolutely nothing to gain from the industry, while giving too much to them. Some other people keep staying on the street road side begging for arms, where there really are healthy, but maybe they think they have nothing to start with. So, they beg, get small or big, but they will consume it all hoping that tomorrow they will beg again to eat.
Truth is that givers will not stop giving but human being who is healthy and complete doesn't need to depend on begging to survive. Because, there are too many things you need to accomplish in order to be happy.
So, ask yourself "What do I have now?"
Pray for opportunities:-
The reason I am telling you to pray for opportunity is because, opportunity is because this time around opportunities are everywhere both online and off-line.
But, genuine opportunities are very rare, most are scams where others are trap-schemes. Some of them are posed not to be scams are traps which shall soon crash and
Open your eyes to see:-
In a country where you have complete right as a citizen, there is also a complete chance for your survival. But your problem might be the inability to open your eyes to see how. One thing i want you know today is to start seeing this world as a competitive animal kingdom. But you should also know that we are not animals, we are human, who have law which guides us, to protect the right of the lowly.
There are opportunities, if you can see them, but what matters is the ability to recognize the helpful or the profitable one. That is why you need to learn as much as you can to be wise. Somebody who is always willing to learn cannot be ignorant, and will be familiar to those thing that other people still find difficult to figure out.
Set a goal for big growth and stick to it until success:
What do you want to be in life, can you see anybody or anything that can actually help you on the process of becoming that thing? Then, if you have found that thing, start working towards it. Set is as a goal, have a target time-set, or time-frame that you can achieve it, and keep pursuing it.
That eventually, is your dream, and you should never give-up pursuing it until you achieve it, and then endeavor to set another one.
Don't do anything for money, but don't be shy to do legal job: - There is things you shouldn't do for a living, no matter how profitable you hear they are: These are those illegal things which you hear people being arrested for. These things are social vices, thing you will not like if you would be the victim. Reasons, you shouldn't do these thing is because they might ruin your life, or you might waste most of your lifetime one prison.
You can choose do jobs which pay you appropriately, respecting your time and talent.
Any paying job that is legal, in which you can be able to solve your three major needs as human being: provide shelter-- house or room, provide food, and also provide clothing for yourself, and if necessary for people around you, and save out some, for future, that is good job.
Anything you can't predict whether you can succeed in is not worth doping for a living.
Don't do jobs that can land you in prison, or that can make you sleep in police cell for one day. Do things others do and are proud doing, without hiding from anyone.
Avoid anything that can waste your time: -
Like I have mentioned above, jumping into anything you see as job can waste too many part of your life time. As you know, time is the most crucial gift given to everyone by God.
Learn how to be always useful round the clock:
Time management is a skill so vital that nothing can replace it. Nobody who wants to be productive, no matter the field would say he / she does not need the skill required to be useful 24/7.
Let your usefulness be for others' benefits.
How sure are you that people are willing to pay for what you do with your daily 24 hours?
Here the question has to change from "what are you doing" to “what are you doing for people". Wake up in the morning daily and count the number of people you will impact their lives positively that day
Be humble and very honest:
Nigeria people love to be respected, and if you are somebody who is sociable and polite enough, you can earn their trust through humility, and through that, you can make great fortunes. Once you have found something that pay you money genuinely and consistently, just keep doing it.
Pride can make someone to keep moving around the streets of Nigeria, with no one patronizing him/her. And Nigeria is a country that if you are not in good term with your neighbor, no matter how important what you are selling, they wont patronize you. Therefore humility is an important virtue if you want to succeed in Nigeria. Also endeavor to be kind and fair to everyone you meet, due to the fact that you dont know who relates to someone that will help you.
And finally, strongly fight for your right:
Don't be afraid to utter and stand for what you really want, no matter the amount of pressure put on you.
Keep doing your things without listening to haters judgments, because people who matter don't always mind, and people who mind don't even matter.
