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...

Do not marry a Robot

Everyone is Unique. We all have our different opinions, visions, ideas. And even when we get married, and two become one, this still remains so. Being in a relationship with another person and succeeding in it entails having a listening ear and heart. Hearing is not enough, we must truly listen. However just listening is still not enough. This post is about striking a balance, between listening to your spouse's opinion, having your own opinions heard and doing the right thing. You should - • Listen to your spouse. Men make this mistake more, thinking that a lady's place is to rear babies, and not to talk. How naive. I once heard a man say: "what can a lady know?" Even the ladies fail in this regard too. It is important you have a heart that listens. No one is an island or a custodian of knowledge. Many homes have been saved by the advice of the supposedly 'ignorant' spouse. Abigail saved her husband's life from David by her wisdom in 1 Samuel 25. ...

Your Soul Knows Better

By -

Some people will come into your life looking as if they are the real deal. Their attributes will tick all the right boxes in your checklist. Your relationship will start with such an intensity that you will believe they were sent from heaven. From this high tension love, your relationship immediately descends to the lows of depression, quarreling and anger. The fluctuations are more dizzying than roller-coaster rides. Gradually, they will begin to show their true colors and you will have to decide whether to leave or stay and try to fix them. If you don't open your inner eyes, you will fall into the oldest trap of the flesh. Your flesh desires them but your soul knows better. Remember all your sufferings and let the wisdom of pain be your guide. All that glitters is not gold and there is no substitute for inner peace. If you remain humble and kind, one day someone will appear from nowhere in the most unusual of circumstances when you least expect it to return all the love you lost ...

Reasons Why it never worked out with Your Partner (by MG)

This is a combination of two posts written by Musa Gift (MG). The first is: Reasons S he left You / turned You down . The second is: Reasons H e broke up with You / never proposed . ----- Reasons She left You / turned You down So she just woke up and told you that it is over, or she said she can't go out with you, or be your "friend". But you have prayed and feel led to her, and she is stalling, or she just changed everything months or years into the relationship. You asked her for a reason and she said it is not you, it is her, and well, or that it is no longer working, or that you people are just not compatible. My brother, I know, sometimes these things happen like that idiopathically, but there are reasons, real reasons ladies break up with guys or reject proposals that they may not tell you – different reasons ranging from fear to the fact that they don't want to hurt your ego. So I have compiled a list, from what I have heard, read and per...

Eggshells (Episode 10)

"Okay. I will call Tunde and talk to him", Jessica said as she withdrew herself from Daniella's embrace, wiped her tears, and went back to the pot of stew on the gas cooker. She opened it, stirred it a little, tasted a bit of it, and thought it was okay. She added a little quantity of water to it and closed the lid. Then she reduced the level of heat of the gas cooker as she turned her back and rested on the kitchen cupboard. Daniella had been all the while beside the refrigerator folding her arms watching Jessica as a hen watches her chicks closely. "Are you sure you are ready for this?", Daniella asked her. "I don't know Dani. But I have to. I just have to, for the sake of my daughter." "Are you ready to tell your daughter the truth? That her father is alive and that he is the nice uncle who sends her gifts you throw away." "Oh common Dani. Why won't I throw them away? Who does that piece of garbage think he is to send my d...

3 Idiots (2009)

I thought of the second movie to write about and I picked this one. It is one amazing movie I love to watch repeatedly. After the first time I watched it on my mobile, it was deleted. I had to search for it and get it back, and since then, its been there. 3 Idiots is an Indian movie starring Aamir Khan (Ranchoddas Shamaldas Chanchad / Chhote / Phunsukh Wangdu), R. Madhavan (Farhan Qureshi), Sharman Joshi (Raju Rastogi), Kareena Kapoor (Pia Sahastrabuddhe), Boman Irani (Dr Viru Sahastrabuddhe; the Engineering college Director), Omi Vaidya (Chatur Ramalingam) and Rahul Kumar (Millimeter), among others. Photo Credit: Wikipedia Readers, if you haven't watched this movie, I'll recommend you do. Let's see what I learnt from the movie: • Life is actually a race, but not a race to compete with others; it's a race with oneself. Follow Excellence and Success will chase you! Rancho taught this lesson to his friends, Raju and Fahran. While Rancho came first at...

Mindset: One's greatest strength

By -
Our most powerful element is the "mind". It's the distinct difference between being successful and failing to achieve. It's what limits you and keeps you distant from your dreams. One of our quotes for this week (by Alice Walker) was about the common way we give up our power, we under achieve and never get fulfilled. Theodore Roosevelt also said: "Believe you can and you're halfway there". The mind is one's greatest strength. When the mind is weak, discouraged and negative, it mirrors into one's actions and activities and ultimately influences the end results. Positive mindset is an essential individual factor for personal success as well as collective success. We see and feel the effects of mindset around us. When we complain about the challenges we face in family, work place, school, organizations we belong to, even the challenges we have as a society or a nation; they're all related to different personal mindsets. When you see a successfu...
