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...

Why Salt kills earthworms?

By -
Image
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...

Discuss! Talk about Everything!!

"Each time we are through having sex, I take some concoctions to flush my system and my Husband isn't aware. He wants kids, I don't." Chanced upon a woman some years back, we got talking and she hinted me on the fact that she didn't want to have any kids in the mean time. I replied her that it's not a problem since her husband was privy and had made that arrangement along with her. To my shock she said her husband wasn't aware and that he was actually expecting her to get pregnant soon, as they were having sex without any form of protection. She went ahead to tell me that she flushes her system with some funny concoctions which I can't remember now (whenever she had sex), I think it was the popular Fayrouz drink and some other random stuffs. She was told it would prevent the husband's sperm from fulfilling its mission. Now isn't that sinister? The poor man was probably hoping to hear her say she had missed her period and all that.. I as...

Treat Him like a King

By -
Image
I love to talk about men. And the reason is very simple: • All men are unique. • They are our pride. • They are the beauty that we have as women. Most times, I tell my friends that when you treat your man like a King, he will worship you like a Queen. Never disrespect your man, he is the reason why people are calling you Madame. Stop looking down on him because you think he is already your husband, and so nothing can happen. Believe me, there are a lots of ladies out there who are willing to pay any amount just to have that same men you are insulting everyday. If you learn how to take good care of your husband he will always make you the envy of all. Don't be ashamed to try new things. A lady is a blessing to her husband, not trouble, pain and heartbreak. Make your husband your best friend. Your husband should be able to say, "Honey, I'm favoured because I have You as my wife". Your calls and presence should never remind him of how much a mistake he may have ...

Productizing Your Services

By -

The easiest way to make more money from your business is to productize some of your services. So, if a client who wants to have a website approaches me, he has two options. It's either I design the site for him or I give him a video tutorial that teaches him how to do it. Either way, I'm making money. In the case where he doesn't have money at all, well, I send him to a free guide that teaches him the basics. Who knows, he might still come back to me in the future for consultation or something else. The good thing is you can create products from almost every services you render. What of a lawyer who wrote a book on how to register a business with CAC effortlessly? What about the graphic designer who created a video tutorial on how to design? Remember GTB *737#? It's a product. Now start thinking of how to productize your services. Mention any service you render and I'll tell you how to productize it. By: Promise Excel

• The 2022 FIFA World Cup final will be played in Lusail, Qatar, a city that does not exist yet. • It's possible for a man to get stuck inside of a woman during sex - usually as a result of vaginal spasms. • You can get pregnant while being pregnant. It is called Superfetation. • People who look young for their age tend to live longer. • You cannot survive without water for 10 days, without food for 3 weeks, and without air for 4 minutes. • In Spanish, the word "esposas" means both "handcuffs " and "wives " and it isn't a coincidence. • If you bought $100 worth of bitcoin 7 years ago, you'd be sitting on $73 million right now. • All Pakistani passports bear the inscription, "This passport is valid for all countries of the world except Israel". • Giving birth is the second most painful thing a human can experience – The first is being burnt alive. • People are naturally more happy when they're kept busy.

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. You can check out the community on Facebook. ----- Tobi Afolabi: If I were to ask what we love most about Pastor E. A. Adeboye, I am likely to get comments such as he is humble, generous, polite, well dressed, cultured... If I ask same for Buhari, Dangote, Steve Harris, Jimi Tewe and many more, I am equally likely to get a similar feedback. Doesn't it amaze you that we...

The Quotes today, is credited to Uchenna Ilo. The Quotes: • If you still feel lonely and unhappy when you're alone, that means you still have some more self-loving to do. • Don't be afraid of losing people. Be afraid of losing yourself trying to please people who may not even want the best for you. • Many misunderstandings arise because we think we know what is in somebody's mind. • The secret wisdom of attraction is learning how to be attached and non-attached at the same time. • Don't judge someone by how they look, what they do, where you met them, what they have, and/or where they are in life at present. If you really want to know someone, find out about their past, where they are coming from, what they have been through, why they are where they are now, and what dreams they have for their future. You would be surprised that inside someone who looks 'dirty', could be the diamond you have been searching for all your life. • I need your love not your ju...
