TURN YOUR HOBBY INTO PAYCHECK

Image
by Abiodun O. Ajayi Nothing is too small to start a living in life. One of the most interesting things in life is turning a common thing into a Paycheck. Most times, you find yourself walking on your computer trying to design for fun. You design in a great way on your computer every day without no one telling you to do so, but simply because of the passion you have for it. It has become a part of you and more like a hobby. You often find yourself singing among friends and family and people admire you for it. Each time you talk in the class or among friends, you make people laugh naturally simply because of your words are so intriguing and bring happiness to people.

Integrity; a key value every Entrepreneur and Leader must possess. I have observed one major factor affecting entrepreneurs, employees and leaders performance and that factor is not being able to keep their words I.e. lack of integrity. Some even because of money lose integrity, why?
