KNOW YOUR VALUE AND LOVE IT

Written by Gaddafi Yusuf Vital Pen 


Everybody has a different value system, and we all value the things that are important to us.

 My value is different from other people's values, and what I love and value may not be what they love and value. That does not Read moremake theirs or mine any less valuable. No, not at all; the reason is that our values are not the same.

CLASSES OF VALUE
1 Self Worth
2 Collateral
3 Family
4 Love


1 Self-Worth - You are valuable; it can be something specific or something that makes other people or animals love and respect you. For example, intelligence, kindness, sincerity, diligence, talent, and many other qualities that could make you feel loved and appreciated.

Collateral: The quantity of assets and resources you possess that can make you feel valuable and loved by the people in your community or the global community.


3 Family - Your family can be your value; regardless of the social class to which you belong, your family will always be both your value and your family. Your family's social class—such as an educated, wealthy, influential, royal, or adventurous family, among many others—served as your source of love and value.



4 Love: A powerful, inherently felt emotion that can transform your value and affection for someone or something. Some people have an incredibly distinct personality or sense of style that makes them easy to love. For example, famous singers, artists, etc.



Now ask yourself, what is your worth? What is it that you feel strongly enough about to defend with all of your might? What quality about you appeals to others and wins them over? Your value is what makes other people or things value and love you.


People believe in making sacrifices for what they love and value, which is what makes you unique when you know what you are worth and love.

You must recognize your worth and cherish the things that bring you joy in order to be content in the here and now and avoid putting things off. Your worth is derived from everything you do that earns respect and value for yourself. Remember that money is an aspect of value as well.


Too many people have failed to recognize, value, and show love or affection for themselves.


Let me give a story as an example of self worth o that people began hiring him to write, draw, design, and paint their homes and businesses. But Mustapha does not dispute or disagree with his paternal uncle's decision to send him to a mechanic workshop.


Even though he did not enjoy the apprenticeship, he continued going for years because he could not help himself, and nothing changed. Mustapha is so impoverished that he constantly begs his mother for money for transportation and food because his uncle is not giving him anything like he initially claimed to be in charge of.

YOU NEED TO BELIEVE IN YOU DREAM AND YOUR GOAL 



There is a wise saying that says, "Being a man is not a one-day job." This is a raw truth that embodies hard work, consistency, and resilience. We all knew that nothing is easy to achieve.

To become the person you want to be, you must first Read moreset a goal. Obstacles and challenges make life sweeter, Lolz, but they are the naked truth.

We, the teaming youths, have lofty aspirations to live a luxurious lifestyle filled with fancy cars, elegant homes, women, clubs, and other mementos. 

But the most painful part is that as we are narrating our entire dream, but we have no plan for where we will get the what or how we will use it to run our dream life.

As a young person, you must understand your potential and plan your dream and the path to achieving it; however, even success has its own set of challenges that can lead to failure if you do not stay firm, and even if you do stay firm, you may fail.

I am a person with many dreams and missions that I want to achieve, but first and foremost, I lacked mentorship and guidance on how to shoot my short. I had been doing my things blindly, believing that one day I would reach gold, but I was still in a state of uncertainty.

Allow me to provide an illustration. Because of press club in secondary school, I had the opportunity to pursue my dream of becoming a journalist. I returned to journalism four years ago, and I first began doing it digitally.

I wondered if this thing would help me become the person I wished to be. No, not at all, is the response. So, how and what path would I take to get into journalism? I have to go out and prove myself, is the response.

I awoke from my slumber and procrastination and I was admitted to school to study journalism with the advice of our fantastic CEO of ATP Hausa Mal. Barrah Almadany He challenged me to go out and show the world that I am a journalist and to showcase my talent as soon as I finished.

He recently gave me words of wisdom and inspiration on how to become the real me that I have always imagining. Laziness and stupid excuses are attempting to kill my dream, but he awakens my spirit by telling me that he believes in me and that I can do it.

To summarize, I prepare for and confront the challenge. I am now in the position of being a journalist as well as a writer, both of which are part of my dream and mission.

Now, if you get it right, I was motivated myself first and foremost by changing my perspective on how to become the person I wanted to be.

Second, our CEO inspired and injected me; he believed in me, and I have continued to do so by being content with the nature and plan of the field.

In conclusion,

You should ask yourself what your life goals are, and what your dream is. After receiving the correct answers to your questions, plan out the methods and strategies for achieving your goals and dreams.

Believe in your dream and pursue it until you achieve it in the way you want.
