INTERNSHIP


 It was time for my second internship and as I journeyed home, I still had not gotten a place to work. I was certain I would get a place but my fear was what if I ended up not gaining interest in where I get to work.

A week after I came home, I started working in an organisation called MME (Media Marketing and Expert) Africa. I was happy, happy with my timid life. Only for my boss to spot my timidity and it was then that my personal and work development through internship truly started.

Internship is the opportunity given to students to learn and gain insight about a profession or a vocation. As I proceeded in it, I got to see some parts of me.

Sometimes as students or individuals, we never might know where more of our interest lies until we really learn about them. For instance, as a student of Mass Communication, I used to think that my interest lied in just writing. I felt writing was like the only place I could even try functioning at. But while working, I got an opportunity to work in a part of digital marketing. I really enjoyed it. I realised there were interesting things one could love that might never be revealed just through notes or reading until reality gets involved. This was one of the things internship made me know.

For every chance I had to learn, it was an opportunity to grow individually. In fact I feel my internship was more on personal development since most of the services made were channelled towards developing me.

In whatever opportunity we have to learn, we should try to take it seriously no matter how small it might seem because that small opportunity could create something big in us.

Have you ever had the feeling of more? Like you feeling there are a lot of things to be done about yourself and that a lot of things could come from you? I often have these feelings but they formerly came from the direction of me feeling void. As I round up my training, the feelings are coming from the angle of happiness.

Trainings prepare and teach us. While undergoing these trainings, we learn and learning 
renew us especially when we learn happily. Regardless of how difficult your place of learning might be, please see the positive part of it and learn openheartedly.

FORGIVEN

                                                            Photo credit: faithis.com On that day she said “I believe” love began to live in her. A love that had the security she once longed for from humans. She couldn’t explain it – His love spurred up a passion for love unto others too. Though some circumstances of life made it seem like being loving was not the correct dispensation but on those times, she would recall who she was and who she had become; her transformation spelt out GRACE. Plain and simple – Grace in Jesus. It allowed her give people time to mature. There were days she would cry, laugh, smile or just stay silent, wondering what manner of love he continually bestowed upon her. It was real. Though invisible yet real. “Hey! Where have you been?” The chat stated.   She woke up to it.   “How far?” she ...

CONFIDENCE

I wrote a list of things I needed to improve on. I had a conviction that I could do all except one called confidence. Confidence is the feeling of certainty but I grew up with the reverse feeling. It became evident to me in Junior Secondary School when my friends would ask me if I read for an exam and my reply would always be ''I don't know''. I replied them that way not because I wanted to shock them with a 55 over 60 as my result but because I always had doubts in my reading. I'm a youth now and this is the stage where I am supposed to grab opportunities, set goals and work towards achievement but the foundation to my achievements is what I lack. The truth is that I am not in this alone and the reason why most of us are facing this dilemma is because we expect perfection in everything we do to the extent that we run from building a positive mind set. I have started working on myself, you can too. I’m experiencing the changes bit by bit. For this...

HELP!!! I THINK I WILL FAIL IN SCHOOL!

While In school, I believed one lie – that I wasn’t good enough to be a bright student. To crown it all, while my new friend and I were conversing on our first day at school, our conversation was cut short by a statement made from a 200 level student “Ah! you are a mass comm student, mass comm is not simple o! Your lectures are wicked and you people don’t use to have first class”. I really didn’t know what a first class was at that time, but I knew it had something to do with a student being at the top. Fear gripped me, then my fears inspired a prayer – “God, let me just pass and go”. God showed me I could be more than the prayer. I hate failing and I’m certain everyone does. Some people have just given up on themselves or have allowed their environment/people define them. Regardless of which position you find yourself, I will like to tell you to take off all preconceived notions (those thoughts in your mind that makes you feel like you are not good enough) as we journey on 7...
