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

By -
Image
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...

You need a Mansion, Build On!

The Foundation is Important, Yes; so is the roofing too. Beautiful childhood memories I have, maybe the most beautiful ever told (at least that was the one I witnessed, don't know of any other). God bless our parents who wore us lovely clothes and took us to church, - to children ministry which was so much fun. Virtually everything was composed into song; Bible study, Memory verses, etcetera. There would always be rhyme and rhythm, melody and harmony. We would dance, sing on top of our voices, laugh so hard and feel all excited! I remember kingdom dance, we usually were the front liners shaking our entire being in our beautiful attires, panty hose and the rest. We would eat biscuits, celebrate birthdays, pray with tightly closed eyes, give special numbers... As we grew older, you'll be questioned about your head covering, so much jewellery spaghetti handed dresses, etcetera (lol). We would go for camp meetings... Catechism came, we memorized plenty things, plenty, and recit...

Nothing Good Comes Easy (Dr. Nosa's Success Story)

This is an inspiring Success Story by Dr. Ewere Thompson Nosa, a Medical Doctor and graduate of the University of Port Harcourt (UNIPORT) Dr. Ewere Thompson Nosa ----- After rounding up my Secondary School education, and losing my Dad to the cold hands of death in 2009; I decided to fend for myself, and complement the support I was getting from my wonderful siblings. I had to do this because I don't like depending on anyone wholly, plus the fact that finance was limited and things were not all rossy. So I started off as a phone technician at Third junction in Benin. It wasn't easy for me as I was a bit too young and innocent to hussle in such kind of environment. I faced a lot of reproach, rejections and oppressions. I can remember a day I was beaten up at my work place, by some cultists for not fixing their phones to their specification. I also faced a lot of disappointments even among my loved ones. Well, that's all history. I endured all and passed...

Be Willing to take down the walls You built around Your Heart

By -

If you're really serious about loving someone, you must first be willing to take down those walls you built around your heart. Your beauty is on the inside. Open up all the entrances to your heart so we can inspect the damage that has been done. Inside the damage is where your healing is. Inside the cracks is where your loving kindness has been hiding. Show us your past. Tell us what happened. We need details. We need to know who inflicted those wounds. We need to know the history of each scar. Using compassionate listening and gentle uplifting words, the process of healing can proceed. We need to see you cry. We want to feel your fears. Some memories have been buried inside our subconscious that we think they never happened. We want to dig inside the subconscious to uproot those childhood traumas. We want to know your dreams. Tell us where and when you derailed. If it hurts then it's good for you. There is nothing outside. Everything is inside. We want to know what you still s...

You Attract Who You Think You Deserve

By -

"And then, there’s the matter of relationships. If you think that you don’t deserve much, you attract friends and partners into your life who won’t treat you very well. I’ll bet you know someone who always seems to go out with the “wrong” person. In fact, the last 29 people they’ve gone out with were wrong for them. Do you think this is a mere coincidence? Oh, no. There is a deeply held belief inside that individual that attracts these people into his or her life." (from Jeff Keller's Attitude is Everything) This is one reason why I either rebuke or stay away from persons who say negatives about relationship or try to paint a negative picture of the opposite sex. Their minds need some reorientation and their thoughts need repositioning. And if one has such persons around him/her, one should either rebuke them or do a change of friends and association. If one continually thinks negative - the world is bad, people are bad, the opposite sex is not trustworthy o...

Happiness is You

So there are a lot of myths, facts, and opinions out there about happiness. My intention, however, is not to support or discredit any one of them you may have come in contact with before. While it is true that happiness is relative, it is also true that personal happiness is what you make of life. Many people in the world today have different goals and ambitions. There is something which is nonetheless common to almost all of us and that is personal happiness. I have learnt that it is impossible to control the happenings around us but what we can control is our disposition towards these happenings. The major mistake a person can commit is to expect that life will always go as planned or as expected. For instance, you may have planned to wake up at 6 am today but somehow you didn't and woke up at 8 am instead. That was not what you wanted or had planned but that was what happened nonetheless. This is a simple analogy of how the plans of human beings are thwarted by unforeseen cir...

WORD Quotes for this Week

By -

The Quotes today is credited to a friend of mine, Riches David Ndu. The Quotes: • Your life cannot depreciate when you appreciate. You cannot attract what you criticise. Thanksgiving should be more than an event. It should be a lifestyle. • When you are trying to achieve something and get stranded, always remember that God is there. He knows how to take care of His Own. He will not leave you stranded. • I define a failure not as a man without money and great accomplishments but a man that is walking and working outside of God's purpose. • When it comes to ideas and inspirations, there is division of labour. The Holy Spirit gives the inspiration and backs it up with transformation and conviction. Your part is to plan, prepare and package it with divine intuition. Riches David Ndu
