We are indeed very privileged that in this time and season we can just stay at home and get any kind of knowledge that we want to. This is what technology has done for us and someone like me, I am very greatfull for that. I believe that if our fathers has this great opportunities they would have turned the world up side down and for good. Alot are happening today because of all the knowledge available in the internet.
If this was possible thirty years back I would not have been crying that I was a school drop out. What I would have done back then was just to Google how to get trained online in the area of life and begin to use it and people may not even know that I did not go to a circular school. I actually believe that it is a blessing for us. Though I am not disputing the fact that people can abuse it. But the fact that people abuse something does not mean that it is not good. Right now I have already benefited in several ways from knowledge gotten online. In the month of November last year 2024. I was introductuced by a friend of mine to one online masters class in ebook creation and publication. At first I was sceptical about it. But later on after so much encouraging words from my friend, I started the training. It took us online three hot weeks of always sitting down in one place for three or four hours a day learning. I was surprised that before the Three weeks ended I published my first ebook. I never thought that it will be possible, but it happened. Today as we speak from that November 2024 till date I have published up to 5 ebooks and I am so happy about it. I love writing, but writing in my laptop and just allow it there, not knowing how to get it out for the whole world to read and be blessed is what I don't want, when I saw the opportunity to bring them out I did.
CHEAPER
Yes of course is cheaper. Maybe that is the reason why people don't take it very serious. I know of how many people I have told to enroll for that online training and start publishing their own ebooks, they throw it aside because of the little money involved. How much did I even paid? Just #5,000. Just that. And today I am a publisher. This is what I have always dreamt of. Having to sell my books to the world at larg. Today is made possible because of just an online training that I attended right inside my bedroom. Infact, sometimes I just relax on my bed receiving lectures. I remember one faithful day that I slept off. When I finally jumped up from my sleep I continued the lectures from where I stopped.
In this topic for week 151 edition 2 that says - Is Easy access A Blessing? I know that it is in two ways. When people misuse that opportunity it will be like a cause to them because the purpose for which it was brought will be defeated. But in a situation where people use it appropriately, then you will see the blessings attached to it. It depends on the approach of the people towards it. Some students are becoming so lazy today because they can just get everything online once they have data, while some don't even care to read anymore because of the internet. They do what we call gabage in gabage out ( gigo). But for me I have benefited enough from it, so I believe that it is a blessing to our generation.
In conclusion, learning has no limit. Be it online or in school, let's go get it. No matter what it will cost, at least is still better than ignorant.
Thanks for hopping in. Do have a blessed week ahead.
