Change

"Change" is not only a constant thing, but it is also the secret to survive in today's world.

"Sometimes ago like in the 1960s, If you speak English you are regarded as likely to succeed. People queued up to access you.

Then It moved.

If you have a university degree. Wow, then that was hotcakes! Suddenly University degree became sachet water.

Then it moved to finish with Upper and above. In fact, my uncle called me to explain to me why 2.1 was the requirement for success.

After this, it moved again

It became what school did you finish? That uncle told me again how I must attend UNILAG. He said they had an interview in his office, where they said candidates that didn't attend Federal University to stand up and go home.

Hmmm! What a wicked selection process, but that is life.

Then after I graduated it moved again. It's now the skills you have. What can you do? This is where most people are at now.

But let me tell you the truth...It has moved again. In fact, it moved about 2 years ago". This is a conspicuous paradigm shift.

Usefulness is now an index to measure success. A man who has usefulness in a situation will find the confidence to face the situation. Adapt your usefulness to the changing time. This is the secret to survive in today's world.
