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

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...

Why do People think that Introverts are Rude or Arrogant?

By -
Image
Myth #1 – Introverts don’t like to talk. This is not true. Introverts just don’t talk unless they have something to say. They hate small talk. Get an introvert talking about something they are interested in, and they won’t shut up for days. Myth #2 – Introverts are shy. Shyness has nothing to do with being an Introvert. Introverts are not necessarily afraid of people. What they need is a reason to interact. They don’t interact for the sake of interacting. If you want to talk to an Introvert, just start talking. Don’t worry about being polite. Myth #3 – Introverts are rude. Introverts often don’t see a reason for beating around the bush with social pleasantries. They want everyone to just be real and honest. Unfortunately, this is not acceptable in most settings, so Introverts can feel a lot of pressure to fit in, which they find exhausting. Myth #4 – Introverts don’t like people. On the contrary, Introverts intensely value the few friends they have. They can count their close fr...

Like it will be always said, behind every success lies struggles, some devotion, hard work, patience and perseverance. What's most important about success stories is to appreciate the story behind the success, and not the success itself. Today, we talk about another African, this time, a South African.

Why Salt kills earthworms?

A lot of us have become used to using salt to kill earthworms when we encounter any in our houses. I've thought about this for a while now, but I recently decided to check it up and I'll share what I learnt about the science. Before that, I'll share some points about earthworms: - They are in the lumbricus genus, there are various species of earthworms, but the common earthworm's scientific name is lumbricus terrestris - Their digestive system runs through the length of their skin - Earthworms respire through their skin - They are hermaphrodites (each one carries both male and female sex organs) - They lack either an internal skeleton or exoskeleton , but maintain their structure with fluid-filled coelom chambers that function as a hydrostatic skeleton. Okay, let's talk about salt and earthworms: Earthworms respire and secrete mucus through their skins. Salt (sodium chloride) has the ability of absorbing moisture (desiccant). When a large quantity of salt i...

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...

(Part 1) "I think my husband is cheating on me" Eukera informs her baby Sister. "How do you know, or did he confess this himself?"

She grabs another apple, hurriedly g...

I am a member of "The Let's Talk About Series" community. I'll be sharing notes from Tobi Afolabi (TASpeaks) on Comportment and Etiquette, a lesson delivered this year, in the month of February. Let's Talk About Series is a personal and career development discussion platform that discuss diverse topics to help boost people's productivity and build personal confidence. They are passionate about self discovery, and believe the strife for personal development helps in adding value to one's life; creating opportunities and setting priorities for the areas that make them most effective.

Never Assume That They Know

A few days ago (on the day this was written), I sent an email to my subscribers. The call to action in that email was, "get your discount now" with a link to a sales page. Later, I got a reply from one of the subscribers saying, "where should I get the discount?" Then I replied, "click this link...." Yesterday (on the day Promise wrote this), a client I worked with sent me a message asking me what a logo was. He told me that someone requested for his logo and he doesn't know what it means. Then I told him what a logo was and the price to get one. His response was that, if he knew that he needed a logo for his website, he would have paid when he was paying for the web design. I took it that it was my fault. I assumed that everyone knew what I knew. This is the more reason why you should monetize your knowledge. Many people don't know what you know. The other day, I was discussing with a friend. Then I asked him, "do you have Evernote?"...

Your Prescription is not far away!

Credit: Chikodili Ochuba  This day, you wake up so excited like you won a trophy. You're all smiles and feel the world revolves around you. You look breathtaking and greet everyone around you. The next day, you wake up feeling so miserable, so sad that you see no reason to get out of bed to face the world, you feel so down that you sit by a corner sulking all day long like you've lost a relative, like your world is falling apart. Nothing interests you; all you want to do is stay away from people and bemoan your "poor" self. After some time you're all over the place again singing and dancing, taking photographs and laughing... Then again you get all moody and shut out from people... You keep shuttling between feeling good and feeling bad and just like a pendulum bob, your mood swings in a to and fro fashion without your control. You feel like holding on to the good moment and never let it slip by but still it's not in your power, you don...
