dianausua: I had been improving myself all along without even knowing. I started reading books from my ss1. I borrowed and bought books i knew would add value to me, reading and taking action. In my family we all know how to draw so i channelled mine to fashion sketching. I sketched every new idea i had into a book. Also i admired musicians and presenters. I mimicked them alot. I would use my dad's laptop to brouse, write out and practice every useful informatn on singing and presenting. Used my elder brother's phone too to get informatns, till i got mine. Everymorning i would make a to do list on this areas of interest then i would make sure i accomplish each one of them. I continued learning, practicng, exploring new ideas and reading. I got admission into the university but still made out time for my talents. I used my strike period wisely to learn how to sew. I am a graduate waiting for service, but working as a fashion illustrator and designer in a fashion company, i have over 700 drawn designs and more in my head. I Have the singing voice i always wanted. Am not workin in a radio or tv statn but i speak fluently as a presenter. My talents and abilities would have been dormant and i would have been ignorant of them,but because of reading books i have discovered them. I believe i have added value to myself and i am still adding value to myself everyday because where i plan to be in future can only be achieved by hardwork, discipline and persistance. Nice one @dianausua. I actually have interest in fashion, and would like to enroll into a good fashion school if I see one, would your company take me as a trainee? if not do you know of any good fashion school that I can attend?. Here is my contact in case 08035733738 or adymask2000@gmail.com Thanks in anticipation to getting your feedback soon |

ogaofficer:I can't start making a list of books now. I personally try to read any book that catches my attention as much as I can. Another thing I do is to search online for any good article on a subject that interests me and read such article. The idea is to read meaningful books/articles that will add value to you. Regardless of what you read, make sure it contains useful and meaningful information from which you can benefit from in the long run. You can go to any good bookshop and ask for books on any subject that interests you. Books on business, money management, family, economics, health or books in your chosen career. There are a lot of good books out there. You're the one to decide on your area of interest and then choose the books accordingly. Hope this is a satisfactory reply. |

ogaofficer:I'll list a few books. You may have read some of them already. The contents of these books touch on self discovery, relationship, leadership, business and motivational. (1) 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership by John C. Maxwell. (2) Winning With People by John C Maxwell. (3) How To Win Friends And Influence People by Dale Carnegie. (4) The Art of Public Speaking by Dale Carnegie. (5) Why You Act The Way You Do by Tim LaHaye. (6) Opposites Attract by Tim Lahaye (7) Understanding Your Potential by Myles Munroe (8 ) Releasing Your Potential by Myles Munroe. (9) The Secret To Winning by Jim Edwards. (10) 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People by Steven Covey. (11) Outliers by Malcom Gladwell. I'm still on this one. For business, I pick a business I'm interested in and try to find books (mainly ebooks) on the business. For instance, let's say I'm interested in owning a restaurant. I will go and search for books/articles that concerns restaurant business to know what is involved. I saw a book on investment recently (can't remember the name now) and I plan on getting it. Note: The books I have listed above are my own preferences. There are many other books written by different people on similar subjects. Also note that two persons can read the same book but it will have different effects on them because of their different ways of understanding 1 Like |
