STEEMIT! JUST RIGHT ON TIME

in steemit •  7 years ago 

We gave schools 12 years to help us with life.

For 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, they locked us in a classroom...

Forcing us to learn things we rarely use in the real world — like how to drop an egg from a 5-story building without cracking it.

Instead, think what schools could have taught us:

  • How to speak in public
  • How to negotiate a better salary
  • How to read people (psychology)
  • How to build a website and sell products online
  • How to manage staff and grow a business
  • How to remove toxic people from your life
  • How to get in good shape and defend yourself

College doesn’t get better either.

For 2-8 more years, we’re told to pay thousands of Naira and Dollars (even if it means going into debt — which it usually does) to MAYBE graduating...

With ZERO guarantee of leading to a job.

If college doesn’t work out, there’s no refund.

People are then stuck at low-paying jobs in order to pay back MORE than they borrowed

Sometimes people say what we do here is a scam.

Even though Steemit literally helped many students go from not having a bank account to making 6- to 7-figures a year, people are still skeptical.

Why is that?

I believe it's because society conditioned us to think school is the ONLY way.

The reality is, it’s not.

There are other options.

For those who’ve been let down by a formal education, here’s a 3-step process anyone can use to take back the time school stole from them.

STEP #1: Stop being an info junkie.

Action gets results.

While knowledge is important, it’s only the beginning.

It takes more than attending conferences, reading books, and listening to podcasts — one must actually do the work.

STEP #2: Find a mentor.

The ideal mentor has already achieved the goal you want to accomplish. And, is 10-20 years ahead of where you’re at now.

After finding a mentor, pay attention to the guideline principles .

The right mentors value their time.

To fasten your achievements, join a steemit whatsap group.

Which brings me to the next step.IMG_20180220_194108.jpg

STEP #3: Form a group on any social media that will enable you achieve your goals.

A group is important because it keeps everyone motivated.

Training to become a Navy Seal isn’t a 1-on-1 experience — people work alongside each other.

Being around like-minded people increases the results productivity.

As everyone keeps each other accountable, the group moves forward.

Unlike school does, I GUARANTEE that following these 3 simple steps will be life changing.

They’re super important, so here's their summary again:

  1. Do more than consume content (take action)
  2. Find a mentor
  3. Form a group that supports each other regularly: post your link, upvote, comment and follow others, so to trigger others in reciprocating.

ANYONE reading this can follow the above steps

It won’t take another 12 years.

Stay Strong

Procrastination is simply a bad habit.
