Over and over again, I keep telling people that landing their dream job is one of the greatest feelings they will ever experience. The problem with most people is that they don’t know how to get started. Starting a business and translating from zero to hero is something that many people are not doing today. They thought that they could only start by taking large amounts of cash to create their own businesses rather than going into a set of principles that could help them create a system for the necessary capital.

Born in a small town of Amaizar in the Isuokporo community of Imo State, Nigeria, my childhood days were a combination of joy and pain. Joy in the sense that I received the best treatment that a child can receive from his parents. Pain because I lost the only thing that could have made my joy unlimited: my mother. However, I overcame my problems thanks to the help and encouragement I received from my father and my brothers. I was also comforted by my friends who gather in a space in my compound every night to offer prayers to Almighty God. As I continued with them in prayers every night, they openly confirmed me as their leader and I guided them well.

After graduating from school, I traveled to northern Nigeria looking for a job and got one. I worked hard to meet my growing responsibilities. In those days, he used to believe that each man is an autonomous and independent actor who can control his own destiny. I held onto this notion until I was challenged by the impact of the financial recession. It was this time that I regretted it again. I saw that there are forces that are far beyond our control and that impact our personal well-being. I thought that prosperity is simply having a business and collecting money from customers. It didn’t occur to me that prosperity is a combination of meaningful work engagement and healthy reciprocal relationships. As for me, I did not see other people as contributing factors to my growth in the business. Therefore, I avoided all the advice that people offered me.

It all started when I was in my closet; I received a stranger who always comes to interfere with my personal work. I can vividly recall how he interrupted my “break” time to offer advice. I take a break every time I grab my pencil and paper to write some inspirational words. I mean, I take pleasure in writing articles and developing weird topics. That’s one of the days my uninvited friend came over. My rest period graduated to long hours and sometimes takes all day. People who know me very well will witness this. It continued to the point of turning my office into a writing room. With the help of a friend, I hired an assistant, who will take care of the business while I spend a lot of time writing.

In 1998, I left my old business and started a printing company. My first book: “Guide to Effective Prayer” was published the same year. I also started a magazine: FUNDACIÓN SATELLTE, which won the admiration of so many people. As I kept focused on the new job, things got easier, even the ones I couldn’t do before. That’s when my mind told me, “This is your dream job!” Through this work, I married my beautiful wife and have two wonderful children.

However, in June 2009, I signed up for EzineArticles.com and was submitting my articles. I made it to the Basic Author position and was bravely making a big impact. I recently won an award that was presented to my office directly from EzineArticles.com as a reward for excellence. Today, my membership has been upgraded to a Platinum level. This is a status that cannot be bought and can only be obtained by shipping quality items.

According to sources, only a small fraction of thousands of authors have achieved this level. Now it means I have won unlimited item submissions! Although this was not without some minor errors in the account and informational content, I earned it because I listened to my heart. In fact, it is an encouragement for me to continue finding new information within my niche to avoid writing repetitive content. I look forward to writing future articles to submit that will really impact my generation. You too can discover your dream job.
