5 Things Smart People Know About Having Their Jobs by importexpert(m): 6:49pm On Apr 06, 2017 |
People have wondered why I keep trying to re-orientate the minds of Nigerians about jobs. I want to state it clearly to avoid being misunderstood: I have no issue with someone having a job. We all tried our hands at one job or the other. I know the feeling of waking up each morning with sleepy eyes just to avoid being late to work. I know the feeling of having a demanding boss and nosey co-workers. I know the feeling of receiving your salary and after splitting it to meet various needs, there is barely much left. I know and I fully understand. But there are a couple of things that I learned early enough which smart workers must have realized about their jobs. 1. It is a way of forfeiting your dreams for someone else: Be sincere with yourself, did you ever dream of living your whole life based on the routine of 8am-5pm job? Very rarely will anybody have such a dream. But this is what has become of so many people, and there seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel. When you received that job, you signed up to work towards the realization of the organization- owned by someone! When are you going to start chasing your dreams? 2. It is a temporary solution to financial problems: Smart people have realized it too. The pay that comes from your job will not cater for your financial problems completely. It will merely give you enough to live by for the month. Hardly will you get the luxury that you see on TV or that you have imagined based on it. And have you observed that most often, the problems you solve with your salary for a month are the same problems you are going to use it for next month? The cycle never really changes! 3. Your pay check is a reminder that you are not completely free: Now this is one fact that some may doubt but it is true nonetheless. Any one or system that controls your finances to a fairly good extent controls you. It controls your time, energy and also your mental efforts. The idea is it to keep you dependent on the system for another pay because what it offers you will hardly be enough to meet the needs you are faced with. In simple terms, you are not completely free. 4. It keeps you attached to itself like an addiction: Have you not wondered how so many people stay at a job for so long? I have. No job was designed to make you rich. No job was designed for you to achieve financial independence. Also, no job was designed to make you think of leaving (except if things go wrong). What the system will do to you is gradually get you used to receiving a salary. Soon enough, you will start resenting the idea of starting your own venture because you will realize that monthly pay that you receive may vanish. It’s like doing drugs. It gets you high for a while and makes you want more. 5. Have a job, but own a business at all cost: Smart people realize that they may have needs that needs to be met continually, but they are also aware of the need to secure their finance by owning a business. They realize that what they earn keeps them afloat for the moment but it has no future guarantee. So, rather than forfeit one at the expense of the other, they decide to handle the two. They retain their job while they find and set up a business of their own that they can run. They ensure that the business does not require much of their time so it doesn’t interfere with their jobs. It is a win-win situation for them. It is said that the power of a seed is not in its size but in its potential. Likewise, starting a business may seem small or of little importance now, but its true worth is in its potential. Its worth is in what it can become three to five months or years from now if you stick with it. So once again, I urge you to be proactive and start a business now rather than grumble about why you think you can’t.

i realised this early during my second year in the university,my first dream in life was to be a lecturer with the sole purpose of getting rich and wealthy in lecturing job. At time goes on i realised that those lecturers i sees everyday in my school are not so rich to the level i desire which make me realised that salary work will never make me rich and achieve my finacial dream,so after graduation i,m venturing into business no matter how small it will be and i belive that with dedication,perseverace and time i will surely get to top. Entreprenuership and business are the only way to finacial freedom and liberate someone from clutches of poverty. Salary work wil only sustain u and will never make u rich. My advice to my fellow young guys out there esp the graduates, please stop wasting your time hoping on white cola job that i think does not exist due to recession, find something and start doing no matter how small, start business,learn skill,look around and search for those needs people are lacking and find a suitable product that will satisfy those needs with that u are automatically a millionaire in a short time. Think smart, think big. Start something today because the best time to plant a seed was 10yrs ago and another best time is today. 13 Likes 1 Share |

Linzo:You mean to say it is crappy? I guess seeing and hearing one thing over and over again possesses the mind. Going by what you said, then I am mistaken for thinking the affiliate jagaban is a gold mine. Of late, I've been seeing it everywhere I go like MTN. I have heard testimonies though... 1 Like |

Lizo: it is high time you stop misleading people. i personally bought the affiliate jagaban and its a goldmine. the op has a heart of gold. i completely disagree with your claims because i am a leaving testimony. i will post my clickbank earnings and all my activities as a form of testimony by weekend to proof you wrong and shame you. the wise knows that if 100 people are satisfied and only one is not does not mean that everything is wrong. bro come out plain and tell us what your ulterior motives are because i already smell rat in you. 1 Like 1 Share |

Godswillnwaoma: lecturing can make you rich, it depends on how good you are with finance. their are some principles governing wealth accumulation that space will not allow me to discuss. but i will summarize it in few lines. principle no,1 is to save not less-than 10% of all that you earn. it can be up-to 20 or 50%. when it starts accumulating, invest it and it will add an extra flesh to your salary. repeat this process. too little time for expatiating this. |
