Task 01

Journaling, write your emotions and negative thoughts in a diary, express your thoughts.

Title: Bad day, Unforgettable Moment in My Life

Story

There was a day when I just came back from work and decided to visit a local restaurant because I was hungry at that time. I took this opportunity to add this location to the Steem Atlas map for easy access for people who are new to this restaurant. The moment I began taking pictures of the local restaurant, two boys were looking at me because I didn’t know their intentions. After I took pictures of the facility, they challenged me, asking why I took their pictures, and I said no.

They claimed to be soldiers and took my phone. I pleaded with them, but they did not listen. I didn’t have anyone to support me because in this world everyone is a betrayal; those who were supposed to help me blamed me instead. They ran away with my phone, and I am very sad about it. I said to myself, where can I find money to buy another phone during this hard economic time?

Thoughts:

I feel very bad about it, and I said to myself, where can I start again, particularly on the Steemit platform? Because I may not be able to participate in any contests, comment, and upvote on the articles I find interesting. This situation will draw me back on the platform, and I feel unhappy about it. I also have bad thought that they may be kidnappers or bandits. If they kidnap my enemy now, they would demand a ransom. As a family, we are struggling to survive, and if this happens, it may affect everything I have been planning for.

Lesson:

If that happens again, I should be bold enough to ask for their identification cards if they are truly military personnel. I also learned the importance of human relationships, that I should try to relate to people because they can help me in the situation I find myself in. Next time, I should also try to explain to the owner of any restaurant the purpose of my visit to their establishment.

Task 02

Mind setup, take a favorite book, continue reading on a topic and write in detail about that topic after finishing the reading. Let us know what book you are reading and take a picture.

This book called 'Successful Nigerian Entrepreneurs' is a nice book to read for those who want to venture into doing business or becoming an entrepreneur.

This book is based on the entrepreneurial aspect and also tells different stories of successful entrepreneurs in Nigeria. When I was reading chapter one, I was more motivated, where they encourage young graduates to engage in entrepreneurship in order to earn legitimate money through their hard work.

_{Book title: Successful Nigerian Entrepreneur}

Through legitimate business, the crime rate will be lower as a result of unemployment. They even stated an example of a young man in Kaduna State, Nigeria, who did not have money to start. He moved from one site to another, convincing the landlords so that he could help them manage their properties. With patience, he has now become one of the biggest real estate men in Nigeria after securing properties.

_{This chapter talked about the story of successful business owners}

In chapter two I learned about entrepreneur mindset where they encourage us to accept challenges because they serve as the opportunity to help us grow in any business of our endeavor, this chapter also taught us that we must stay up to date in order to know what is currently happens in the industry, connect with successful people as well as having an experience mentor to guide us in our entrepreneur journey.

The most interesting things I also learned in the chapter 3 is about business plan which is very important for young people to have written business plan in order to become a successful business owner. which includes: organizational management, table of contents, company description, budget and more. so this book is good for those who want to gain more knowledge partaining on entrepreneurship skill.

Civil war erupted in the country as a result of greediness and corrupt leader who controls the affairs of the country, shortage of food happens in the country and those who fall the victims are ordinary people who find it difficult to eat three good meal in a day due to unavailability of the food in the country.

Their is brave man from among these ordinary people called kibria ahmed which send down to protect these struggling individual from injustice, protest was lead by him when they reach agreement with these powerful people that everything would workout fine.

Except Harun Chowdhury one of the powerful businessman disagree because he only think about his family alone and selfish that in his character, if he know the consequences he would not do that because life of humanity is very important, if we kill one soul as if we killed the masses.

He rise the price of food to an exorbitant price to the extent that people cannot afford it. Disease emerge which eventually affect his own son, everyone left him to bear the consequences of his greediness and inhumane feeling.
