Bracing myself for a journey of learning & growth as an emerging HR manager @LearnwithDEXA#LearnwithDEXA
@RealBushariSMA@HaadiJimoh@egi_nupe Lol... you can't build any career in Ilaro. What we have is just 5 banks and a Federal Polytechnic (now University).
@Precioustumii@HarryPills25818@BhadJayy Civil servants' salary depends on the type of commission, ministry, or agency. Also note that some were given autonomy to determine their employees' salary. Yes, some level 8 officers earn about 500k.
10 LIFE HACKS/ADVICES MANY OF YOU PROBABLY NEED AND SHOULD KNOW FROM EARLY ADULTHOOD:
1. Life is much better when no one knows anything about you.
2. Never force anyone to choose you. Never beg to be loved. Choose genuineness and naturalness.
3. If you don't work to build your own dream, someone will hire you and use you as a tool for achieving theirs.
4. Free yourself from the chains of society's advice. Most of them have no idea what they are doing.
5. Your are at peace with yourself when you mind your own business.
6. Life WON'T wait for you to be okay. Get up from your comfort zone and keep pushing.
7. Master your emotions. A clear and calm mind can handle any situation.
8. You need to take people for who they are, not want you want them to be. This way, you avoid disappointment and learn to live in harmony with your environment. You become happier.
9. Make sure you take care of yourself cosif anything happens to you, the world would move on.
10. Be smart enough to create your opportunities. Don't wait for them to come to you. Working to create them is a form of PRAYER which will be answered someday.
Spread this if you found it helpful. Someone might need it on their journey to maturity.
I want to put this out here because some single persons who are about to make the ultimate decision of marriage might need it:
There’s a big difference between being financially comfortable as a single person and being comfortable when you’re married.
As a single person, it’s easy to feel like you’ve figured things out because your expenses are controlled and predictable. But the moment you get married, your baseline for everything changes. What you see as financial comfort now would require much more management to be enough. Because you have to feed, shelter and cater for 2 adults.
If you really want to understand or get ahead of it, take your current recurring expenses and multiply it by 4. That’s the kind of financial capacity it takes to maintain the same level of comfort you currently enjoy as a single person.
There is more. Being married without children is one thing. When you introduce children into the equation, the demands increases. At that point, multiply your single person expenses by eight for two kids. That’s when the real weight of responsibility starts to show.
Those ‘luxuries’ and cravings you will still be able to afford them, but you would not buy them. Because bills will come at you thick and fast, never ending. Eventually, you recondition to anticipate unforeseen expenses and become more conservative with personal spending.
My point is: Prepare. Have a trajectory and make sure you marry a partner who would work to support your home. That way, your income increases proportionally with your expenses.
Many single people think they’ve cracked the code on financial comfort and they jump into marriage without well detailed plans. They forget to factor that as single people, they’re operating in a controlled environment with limited variables. You can only understand it when you step into that phase of life.
To know the value of a year, ask the student who failed their exams.
To know the value of a month, ask that mother whose baby arrived too soon.
To know the value of a day, ask the couple about the night before their wedding.
A minute? Ask the bettor who played under 3.5 in a match with scoreline 2-1 in the 93rd minute.
A second? Ask the driver who literally just avoided a crash.
Value of a split second? Ask the athlete who missed the medal.
Time is precious. Appreciate every second for what it is, use it wisely and live it to the fullest.
I struggled with this a lot, but I discovered a simple trick that transformed how I manage my time.
Whenever I’m working, I break it into intervals… 30 minutes of deep focus followed by a 10-minute break to do whatever I want on my phone (pretty much giving in to my distractions).
It’s not the most conventional approach, but it’s helped me accomplish more and finally overcome my procrastination.
