I'm inspired. I have an account with Upwork but my proposals are always ignored or rejected. to be honest, I felt discouraged. but after reading this piece, I'm motivated to try again. And this time, no more giving up.

Sorry about that. Was enrollment/training free? Currently looking for one that is free.
It was free.
Previously it used to be paid, but free as at the time I enrolled. 8 weeks duration.

NUJABEZ:
I was on Upwork for six years and made more than $100k. The truth is, more than 90% of you guys reading this thread and this post will not be succesful. Upwork is not child's play, and if you do not have the skills and attention to detail required, you will not get very far.

I might sound negative, but I swore never to tell any soul about Upwork in Nigeria anymore because you guys don't have the work ethic, the resolve, and the ability to transcend the Nigerian factor. The ones I introduced to the platform never made it anywhere because they didn't put in the work. To me, Upwork is best discovered by a person rather than being told about it.

If you are going into Upwork without the right tools, equipment, and mindset -- you will fail.

If you begin working on Upwork without quickly specializing, for instance, moving from content writing to marketing automation expert; or, data entry worker to Business Analyst within your first two years on the platform, you will fail.

If you love too much sleep and detest rejection, you will fail.

If you cannot devote all of your heart and passion to become the best that you can be, you will be found out and you will get your sorry ass fired.

If you cannot rid yourself of that uniquely Nigerian ability to fashion excuses for the deferment of work, you will be let go. Your profile will tank and no one will hire you.

99%. My problem with gen is noise pollution.

The problem with powerbank is that it needs another source to charge.

I can’t drop the contact here. Maybe privately.
