A WAKE UP CALL This is inspirational !!!!

There is a problem with the Nigerian mind set. It is so limiting that it stifles innovation and creative thinking. You’re made to go to school, serve your country and finally WORK! This is the dream picture of an average Nigerian parent for his/her child. They forget that life is not about a cycle that runs from generation to generation!!

What about all the young people start out their small business? What about allowing the young people decide their dreamsThere is absolutely nothing stopping you from getting a small fund from your guardian to start out. Today, we admire the Ibrus, the Dangotes Igbinedions, and internationally Bill Gates, Steve jobs etc. All these people would be nowhere today if they spent all their efforts on working for someone else.

A contemporary example is Wizkid. If the talented artist adhered to the limited mindset of finishing school and working for someone, Nigerians wouldn't be dancing to his, soon to be, classic hits. Before he started out, he probably asked himself what he wanted to be in future; whether a slave to the man, or an internationally known music maker. Because he had the courage to choose, he has become an international success.

If Bill gates did not start Microsoft, we wouldn't be enjoying our Windows services today. The late Steve Jobs initially worked for Hewlett Packard (HP), but said his job was frustrating and set out on his own. He created Apple, which is the most valuable tech company in America today.

It is up to you to determine your future! If you are a good trader, go into it. If you can sing, pursue a career in music. If you can make shoes, be a cobbler (or start a shoe company). If you can design clothes, search for a career in fashion.
Enough of the blaming of the Nigerian government on unemployment
If a million Nigerian youths set out to do their “own thing,” we are essentially creating nothing less than 6 million jobs!

This message goes out to the youths of 2011. WE have the power to change OUR futures and the future of Nigeria as a whole. The ball is in our court.
