I hope you have read the previous post… “Intellectual Fraud!”🤭🤭 To avoid getting lost, start from the very beginning please. Read the first episode, this is the second.🤗🤗

For the greater part of my childhood, I watched and listened to tales of “happily ever after”. I thought life was all fairy tales. I must tell you, I have discovered that it’s the most wonderful fairy tale.

“Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.”
Neil Gaiman, Coraline

Most of us were exposed to the romantic aspects of fairy tales. I’d like to propose that you look at the “fairy tale” frame from a different angle… the intellectual angle. You can write your fairy tale. (Walt Disney would be proud🤭🤭). Fairy tales… intellect? How do they connect?

Our educational system may pose different challenges (dragons) but not being able to face and “conquer” these “dragons” is where we go awry. One tried and trusted way of overcoming some challenges is building relationships with people, who share in the same vein, as well as those who have gone ahead of you. This connection can go a long way in solving some supposed challenges you might be facing in your fairytale.

The educational space creates an ambience for learning, socializing, and connecting with amazing people. The list is endless. Yet, some people believe in beings islands in their self-acclaimed oceans is the best way to live.

You need to face it! No man is an island. Hello? Am I communicating? You want to build an empire, be a CEO and make it to the Forbes list before 30 but you sleep in all day like a sack of potatoes and refuse to communicate with people?🤔

Dear Future CEO, I have a few questions to ask.

  • When was the last time you had a profitable discussion with people around you?
  • When was the last time you attended a seminar or masterclass to improve your skillset?
  • When was the last time you interacted with people with similar goals and aspirations as yourself?

These questions are just the tip of the iceberg. Staying within your shell all day long is similar to putting Granit locks on your numerous doors of opportunities. Socializing, connecting, and building your audience would lay the foundation for your dream empire. Your fairytale is in your hands.

Fortunately, where do you meet great minds if not in a place where great minds gather? In school. The four or five years course that you are studying, as the case may be, would do you good if you seize the opportunity to:

  • Make good and lasting friendships.
  • Interact with people and share interests, your helper might be a stone’s throw away.
  • Stop sleeping in like a potato.🤣😩 Your free time can be used to improve your skillset.
  • Think big… Read books, and grow your knowledge in areas that interest you.
  • If you want to build an empire, you can’t do that solo. Start making connections.

Disclaimer: I am sharing with you a few tips from books I have read and life patterns I’ve studied. I may not be professional, but some of these tips have helped me through school.🌺

I always have my readers’ best interests at heart. I hope you enjoyed this episode.

Comment your thoughts and share to someone that needs this.

With love from SHESPEAKSHERMIND247🍷🥰
