MY OWN DEFINITION OF SUCCESS.
The way we perceived success different from individuals and often influence by the community we find ourselves in. My own definition of success is been independent i.e I count myself successful when I don't relie on anybody for my needs and survival.
HOW I WANT MY SUCCESS TO LOOK LIKE.
When I said independent about success this is what I mean, before I can say I am successful I want to be able to acquire what I want without the stress of thinking where to get the money, like putting on the clothes I love no matter how much it cost, been able to afford a good meal for me and my family, living in a comfortable house it does not have to be a big house or mansion, been able to afford a vacation if I want and having my own stream of income. I want to have my personal business so that even though am working for you and you decide to stand up one day and sack me it won't have a great influence on my finance.
I want to be able to enroll my children in the best school and the school of their choice if they want to go to any country for their studies I want to be able to pay, been able to pay does not mean that I will have to take a loan or relay on anybody to do that but pay from my savings without me having the impact of the money leaving my account. it's not necessary I have millions of money in bank account but If i want to spent 20naira let me have that 20naira with me.
My ideal success is also when am able to help people in need and also render help to my relatives. I want to able to take part with NGO to develop the community.
HOW I PLAN TO ACHIEVE THIS.
I am ready to be hardworking, comitted and dedicated to anything I am doing. I am presently in my final year of BNSC program after this year I will start looking for a job no matter how small it is because I am a registered nurse and midwife already before I secure a space for my internship so as to have the needed fund for my business. before I start school I already learn fashion designer as a skill and also during the Covid19 lockdown I was with my brother learning fishery. after my internship before they mobilize me for nysc service I want to learn how to sell drugs i.e know about how to open a pharmacy, get drug supply, register the shop and everything about it.
I have already start saving some money since my year two in the university I plan to add the one I could save during internship and nysc to it to start up the business but for now I have not decided which business I will start first either a fashion house, fishery or a pharmacy store. The location I find myself will determine which one I will go into first but I will surely invest in the three. During the growth of my business I plan to be working with my certificate so as to avoid relaying on the business at a tender stage and also be using my salary and profit from the business to expand the business. you might be thinking how will I combine business and work, I will employ capable hands to run the business, I will only be supervising and monitoring them.
IN SUMMARY
My ideal success is to get to a stage I don't depend on someone for anything and I plan to achieve it through venturing into different business(been an entrepreneur) and also working with my certificate because it is my passion.
This is what ideal success means to me.
