Making Lemonade out of lemon:Passion, profit, independence

in Ladies of Hive2 months ago

I grew up with the mindset of being a nurse, i will always come up with a debate amongst my classmates on the benefits of studying nursing, telling them how i will be able to save lives , give good treatment open up a hospital and attend to patients even before they pay the bills, i had passion for it, i always stand up to talk about it.

The Covid struck and things got difficult, everything changed, but my passion didn't change immediately, after spending weeks close to months at home, i thought of what to do to support my family.

I was sent on and errand to get something, i saw my senior, she's a hairstylist, something came to my mind, i talked to her and told her i was tired of staying at home and she said i can come to her shop and spend some time, i was excited and couldn't wait to start up , i talked to my mom about it and she agreed.

I started up and at that time life served me lemon , most days was exhausting and tiring, hunger and mockery, when things were going out good she traveled for the university and boom life hit me again, i was left in thought of what to do again.

After some months i was introduced to work in a warehouse, it was a tough time, once again i was mocked and maltreated in a monthly payment of fifteen thousand, after a year and few months i stopped working and decided to make lemonade out of lemon le life has servedv me so far.

I went full time into hairstylist, because few years i developed passion because the results turned out so well, i came to see the beauty in a woman when she braids her hair , the joy they derive from it , so it boost my Passion for it.

Independence: difficult times made me understand the need to hustle and not depending on anyone, so yes , i said to myself i was never going to work for monthly payments, i will hustle on my own, and yes here i am today doing what i know best, and am not going back, forward ever and backwards never

Here is what passion moves me to do with people hair

Profit: satisfaction of my customers move them to pay a meaningful amount of money despite how difficult things are.

Oh yes i work for theprofit or the Money to offset my bills as an independent girl but then the passion i have for it moves me to create design of my own and that keeps me moving.

Motto: A thousand miles begins with a single step

These are beautiful, it's good that you decided to make good use of your times to learn a skill. Sometimes we don't build passion for something until we move close to it...

I've done a temporary summer warehouse job before. It's hard work and I could barely tolerate the coarse language to put it lightly. Glad you found your calling, On behalf of the Ladies of Hive community, welcome to Hive, our social Block Chain @nancykelechi

BTW, I've been a Nurse for over 25 years, now retiring.

Wow, that's awesome
I love it

Honestly, it wasn't easy to manage the warehouse, keeping records of goods and sales, arranging the goods and making accounts, it was really stressful

This is awesome.
Well-done baby girl 🥰🥰
