William Shakespeare writing in the times of kings and queens and Monarchs observed that there were only three ways to GREATNESS: for him, it's either you are born great, or you achieve greatness or you have greatness thrust upon your head.
In time past, the difference between the rich and the poor lay credence to noble birth or inheritance, but today it has changed. The difference now lie in the access to information and the use of the information. And as if that isnt enough, almost everyone is now entitled to equal opportunity in this regard. Most people are armed with a smart mobile device capable of accessing the web.
However often times it has been said "if you want to hide anything from a black man, keep it in a book". Now because of the sophistication in age I would add, keep it away from social media.
Many of us know what songs are trending. We follow the Kardashians like they hold the key to our happiness. We know what jay z had this morning, as we are looking up to what lil wayne will drink this afternoon. We keep a dairy of the babymamas of celebrities. Some of us are even more pathetic, we take sides to the dice of Wizkid and Davido and other stars while they use us to sell market. Wasting hard earned data bundle. We hardly know how to use the social media let alone Google. I am not saying don't make use of social media or have a good laugh, but rather make it work for you. Let your slogan be : 100% value for every penny spent. Demand value for your 1kb. Let your precious time on surfing the web always worth it.
You see something you don't know well enough you ask he internet. It's far richer than the classrooms. With the power of cloud networking, you can just access any information and enrich your yourself with knowledge at your comfort.
If you follow (Game of Thrones) GOT you will agree with me that Load Baelish knew the value of information. His problem was what he did with them....
Nice one
Interesting update,
Information is always the power.
