What are you doing to improve yourself?

Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has yet again embarked on another strike action and it is gradually getting into the third week now. The most heart wrenching thing about this problem is as a student you never know when it would or how it would end and neither can you do anything about it. So it is safer to see this as an opportunity to improve yourself...So in this post i would be talking about the ways you can improve yourself...

  • Get a job either paid or unpaid - it is important you stop sleeping and eating all day. Get yourself up and find a job or learn or volunteer in a field you are interested...because the truth is after school a little experience or more knowledge in your field would naturally put ahead of your peers. So forget about TV, the latest movies and invest in yourself for the future.
  • Start a business - if you are entrepreneurial savvy or you think you have a business idea that has been sitting in your head for a long time, this is the best time to start and in case you want to complain about no capital remember the key is to start small...A friend of mine during the last strike  action started a blog and he is one of the fastest growing publicist available right now you can  view his site on www.47vibez.com.ng
  • Get Creative- Can you bake a mouthwatering cake, are you a better writer than Wole Soyinka, are the lines of poem threatening to burst your head open,can you  make creative funny videos or you have always wanted to start a Vlog?....well now is the time to get creative with all those ideas and start to do them...
  • Learn a Trade - lastly, you might look down on your tailor or mechanic because you see yourself as an undergraduate that would soon get a white collar job,what you may not know is that they actually make more money from those trades than would make the regular salary earner want to quit his job. Also in  life, you never know what curve ball could be thrown your way so instead of relying on that piece of certificate you haven't gotten yet, you might want to go out there and learn a trade or just anything you can do with your hands. from tailoring, to plumbing, events decoration, hair styling and the list is endless so the choice is yours to either stay mediocre or become more than just a student sitting at home and is being  limited from achieving greatness  by the strike..
