I was in a bank earlier today for some transactions and entering the bulk room, I met this young lady who I believe is between the ages of 23 & 26 and she is one of the cashiers in the bank. I looked at her face and I looked at other cashiers {who are of the same age with this lady} around her and the following conversation ensued between us:
Me:- Why do we have many young people in the banking sector these days?
Lady:- Is it bad?
Me:- No. Not that. It's just that I pity them a lot.
Lady:- Pity? Why do you pity us?
Me:- Many of these young people will work for companies or firms from their young age till they grow old. But imagine if all of you here are entrepreneurs
in different sectors, won't this country be better place for all of us?
Lady:- Many of us are just doing it for the main time.
Me:- That's what many say, before they know it, they are having grey hair in the same company. If you can get the book RICH DAD, POOR DAD, read it. It will
help you.
My people, that's the conversation we had. But let's use this lady as a case study. Let's assume she is 25 years old, young, vibrant, intelligent, dedicated and many more. She is a young graduate with fresh and bright ideas. But, guess what? She is using all these qualities to enrich another man's purse and what does she get in return? PEANUT as salary.
Many of us are fond of asking the question, "What can my country do for me?", "Why can't my country do this for me?" but, we don't always ask ourselves the question, "What can I do for my country?" If I am an entrepreneur, you are an entrepreneur and this lady is an entrepreneur too, we will employ not less than 5 people each and with that, we will reduce the rate of unemployment in our country.
The problem with many of us is that we don't want to take the blame for what is happening to us. Rather, we want to blame our friends, family, relations and we also want to blame the government. My people, let's wake up from our slumber because not until we wake up, we can not think right and if we don't think right, there can't be any change around us. "Rule your world. If not, someone else will rule it for you"
See You The Top !!!
