MUST You Acquire A Degree?

 ❤‍🔥🌱🎇 

The world has changed. University degrees are *NOT* needed in more and more professional careers these days.

Spending a lot of money attending big name schools is really a waste of money, in my opinion. Yes, there may be exceptions. But for the most part, it's a waste of money.

What is needed today is SKILLS:

- What skills do you have? 

- What new knowledge are you willing to acquire? 

- Are you passionate about constant and continuous improvement? 

These are the people who will excel in today's world. 

The world is changing so fast. As an individual, you can do more things by yourself for yourself without needing professional services from doctors, lawyers, food and nutrition experts, computer engineers, etc, etc. This is true if you know how to use AI.

No Excuse

Some people give all kinds of excuses for not being creative, inventive or innovative. ...like: "I don't have time to think; to invent or innovate. I'm struggling to make ends meet." And my reaction is, "But I thought NECESSITY is the mother of invention! You are in a, "NECESSITY STATE" - all the more reason to create, invent, innovate, "THINK DIFFERENT" and add value to lives, generate great income, etc." 

...and there are those who are not even in a dire, "NECESSITY STATE" and would not tap into their creative imagination. This, really, is what makes the difference between rich countries and poor countries. This is one of the key elements that sets countries apart - the successful ones from the failing ones…

Technology Sees The Power of Pee!

The value of Pee (I said Pee not Pi! LOL!!). Four (4) teenaged girls in Lagos, Nigeria use URINE (Pee) to power a GENERATOR - to supply electricity....

If the Nigerian government, companies and individuals can shower MILLIO₦$ on the Super Eagles football players, they sure can do same for inventors. The footballers won gold at the just concluded African Nations Cup, 2013. They were showered with MILLIO₦$; and that's fine. However, how many jobs would be created as a result? If it's ok to shower them with millions of Naira, Dollars or whatever, how much more should we be doing for our Scientists, Inventors, et al? These inventors have the potential of creating millions of JOBS - with the right enabling environment, moral, spiritual and financial support. Stop and think, for a minute.

DUMP CABLE!!

I never even bothered to have cable or satellite TV, in the 1st place... Why bother when I have the INTERNET!

You can connect your computer to your wide, flat screen TV! Viola! The world before you there! I have a DVD/BLU-RAY player by Sonny that has WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) capabilities... It connects to my wireless Internet router. Through this device, Sonny offers access to some websites like youtube and other services... Some are free; some are not... With YOUTUBE alone, I can gain access to a lot of stuffs - at no cost... Sweet! I ‘dumped’ cable long time ago! LOL!

A key sentence to remember when shopping is, "I'm looking for an INTERNET ENABLED TV and an INTERNET ENABLED DVD/BLU-RAY player". You would save a lot of money in the long run...

You need an Internet enabled TV (a TV with a port to which you can connect your computer. For the connection, you may need a VGA, DVI, USB cable or something else, depending on the kind of port on your computer and TV). You can watch shows/comedy/movies/news, etc @ no cost from sites like Hulu.com, youtube.com, ESPN's site, for all kinds of sports, etc, etc. IT GETS better with a new kind of DVD/BLU-RAY player that comes with WLAN (Internet capability). You connect this to your TV and link it wirelessly to your [wireless] Internet router. This way, you can have access to different Internet-based services without having to hook up your computer... Here in the U.S, more and more people are saying goodbye to cable TV. #PocketThatChange. LOL!
