Success Story: How I went from a CGPA of 2.29 to 4.00 within a Semester

By -

This is a Success Story shared by Olusola O'sola Fapohunda, a graduate of the Federal University of Technology, Akure. ----- In early 2010, I went with about four other guys in my department - to visit our level registration officer. We wanted to check our result. Each one of us, was with a paper and a pen. The lecturer in charge asked for our matriculation numbers and one after the other, he was reeling off grades, GPA and CGPA. He eventually got to me and I heard a digit that sounded like I've been shot. God! Me! 2.29. I've earned myself Grade E in some three unit courses and my best course was APH301, which I had a B with a score of 69. About six months later, I went to check my 300 level second semester result and I now had a CGPA of 4.00. That was the happiest day of my University education. I was rolling on the floor of the room. The previous semester has been hell, yet the one that followed it yielded this awesome result! What did I do? What did I change? What s...

Rush Hour is an American buddy action comedy film that stars Jackie Chan (Detective Inspector Lee) and Chris Tucker (Detective James Carter) as mismatched cops who must rescue the Chinese consul's (Consul Solon Han) kidnapped daughter. Photo Credit: Wikipedia What did I learn from Rush Hour? • Sometimes, one's dream(s) becomes reality in the most unexpected and funny of ways. I admire people who take life happily, make fun out of the seriousness of life, and at the same time, still stay focused on their dreams with optimism, trying to make great use of opportunities that comes around them. Detective Carter of the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), the cop who doesn't go with a partner on cop duties (he had lost his Dad who was also a cop due to the failure of his dad's partner to back him up), unlike his other colleagues in the police department, seemed to be regarded as a joker, a carefree cop in the LAPD. If every cop in the LAPD were to be ranke...

It is true that you achieve what you put your mind to. January 27 2017, I was seated in the office to have my final interview. I have read lots of interview questions and answers online before then like I was going to get a 10 million naira job. Staying without job for a year was the lowest point of my life. I answered every questions pragmatically and then the very big question! How long do you see yourself working with us? "I can only guaranty that I will be here in the next one year", I replied. I didn't even last a year because I have my purpose and focus in view. I knew exactly what took me there so I wasn't that employee who has the mindset of retirement. In fact, I never participated in anything long term there. Maybe you also want to have total control of your time to play a bigger game. The following steps will guide you. Find your purpose: Every decisions I took springed from my discovery of Oladipupo. Though I was jobless in 2016, I used that year t...

Welcome to October

Those moments will come when you will ask yourself a lot of questions, when the feeling of tiredness will set in, when you've worked hard enough and feel like the life in you is being choked out. You just want to fast forward to your ultimate destination and end the journey. You're tired of the stress, you're tired of working hard and making those efforts. But deep inside You, you get fulfilment from what you do, you feel great and positive about yourself whenever you do those things. Your dream lies in them. You're only just tired. It's normal. You may rest a little, but you don't give up! You don't give in to distraction and that desire to just get there immediately. You should keep working, keep believing, keep improving, keep learning, keep growing. The truth is that what you're doing isn't hard. It isn't difficult. It's just challenging. It's also fun if you look properly at it and if you decide to get the fun out of it....

Life is a Long Shot

By -

When I see those that knew me when I was much younger, probably those we lived in same area or schooled together, I often wonder what they think of me today. About who I have become. I am far different from the person they knew, yet I know I only just begun in my journey to change lives all around the world. When I see men and women, and the weight of abilities they carry, I am astounded. Many of whom are not taking any step whatsoever to show the world the depth of possibility locked in their very soul. Sadly so. I have grown to be able to have conversations with people and pick messages off their lives. Things lying there waiting for expression. Edgy. It is usually a sight to behold when they have “aha” moments, seeing the possibilities that abound within them. I cherish such moments. I was speaking with a very inspiring lady yesterday evening (on the day this was written) and what she said touched my heart. She was loaded with messages from her life experience to bless many lives...

What a Real Woman desires?

By -
Image
It's funny – once a young man has money, affluence or fame, he begins to think every woman is after his wealth, or popularity. He begins to see himself as a real man because he has money and can pay bride price and 'put a woman in the house' without batting an eye or breaking the bank.. A Real Woman is not after a Man's money. No, she knows she can make hers. She knows she needs him to have his too. But beyond wealth, a Real Woman desires – • Emotional security from her Man She wants to know she can be herself (completely naked) emotionally before him and not be mocked for it or rebuked. She wants to know he will fight to put and keep a smile on her face, to make her happy, do all he can to defend her emotions every day of their lives together. A woman's emotions is her greatest vulnerability. It's what makes them different from Men, and a man who cannot understand this aspect and show capacity to handle her in that regards needs to learn. Some men cannot ev...

Slavery Mentality and Freedom

By -
Image
Two things amidst other things happens to a slave at the point of freedom; the second is worse than the first. • The Joy of freedom: Freedom is good. The feeling of joy that comes with it is second to none. Fresh slaves get use to this euphoria of been set free after long period of slavery and if care is not taken, they create such a deep connection with the joy that they can spend years just being happy for the freedom without stepping into the reason for their freedom. Freedom has essence. It has Purpose. Freedom comes with its own BURDEN. The best attitude to freedom is not reminiscing on the place you have been freed "from" but on the thing you have been freed to do... It is a thin line of understanding. In the DOMAIN OF FREEDOM, enormous responsibility is required. FREEDOM IS NOT FREELANCE. • The shock of freedom: Slavery conditions neuro-associatively. It makes you get so used to it that when you are been set free you are thrown into such a world of shock... In...
