Everything in life is a learning opportunity. Something happened to me about 4 days ago and I think I will like to share it with my readers. I was trying to go for a meeting in the morning. I took a laptop to a friend's house to charge it because there was no light in my side. I plugged it and left telling my friend to take it to my house and handed it to my mother when he intends go out.
When I came back around 3:30 pm, he did not take it to my home because he was still at home but he had unplugged it, put it in the bag and kept it aside. I thanked him profusely and left for home. As I reached home, ate m food, said my prayer I switched it on only for me to find out 4% remaining charge in the system. I was little disappointed at the time but put it back in the bag and kept it.
Then in the evening, I took the system to a brother of mine who is running a business and has a generator. As I took the battery out I saw SOMETHING which is the purpose of wring this post. My friend, even though he don't have a laptop, he has done some thing which I have to learn on the spot. He has used something which is tied to the battery to fasten the battery wire. This is what I never knew it existed let alone knowing its function.. I have been wrapping the battery with the wire all this time in an uninteresting manner. From that time I know how to fasten it securely.
It happens in virtually every situation or instance of our life, that a solution to our immediate problem is there right close to our eyes but we never know. There is one Hausa proverb that said, "There is a medicine in a boy's farm, but he didn't know". You have to know that every problem in life has a solution otherwise it will not be a problem.
Let me switched you on because like me, you may not have the gift of the gab to understand a medicine in your farmyard. It may just be a flower that you have to pluck out and put it in your mouth and ypur recovery is instantaneous! Here are the ways to find a solution to your problems:
1. OBSERVE: Observe your surrounding. Wherever you are and whatever you are doing, take notes of everything you can see with your naked eyes. There is power in observation.
2. ASK QUESTIONS. Ask question about everything because any possible question has a possible answer. Ask and get the answer to your problem.
3. READ. We are not a reading society. I have zeroed in on the fact that there is nothing you cannot learn if you are willing to flip the pages. There are secrets in books, solutions in contents, tips in chapters, facts in paragraphs and meanings in glossaries. Don't miss them!
