One of the basic need/necessity of man is that of living a good and quality life devoid of disease. Aside food, shelter and clothing, staying/living healthy is also very key/vital to life and the more reason it shouldn't be handled lackadaisically. The advent of technology and technological advancements has better off the lots of we humans and its something to be happy for. Infact, it seems like we are now configured to be online in order to stay relevant in this era. However, anything about human system isn't perfect and there maybe challenges someway somehow which may make things unavailable, hence, the need to develop a plan in case of any future developments.
Based on personal evaluation and discovery, one skill I'm so sure of and which with practical examples has worked for me and is still working for me is the ability to put things together or organise things. This is a addendum to my nurtured leadership ability which has been refined by training and diligence/meticulous strength i have. Right from my early childhood, things has been committed to my hands and had served at various leadership positions e.g. class captain, headboy, health prefect boy, timekeeper 😂 etc. During my university education, i was put incharge of organising health outreach to villages even more than twice.
By this, i had to organize the health outreach team comprising of students from the medical college, school of Pharmacy, nursing etc. This opportunity helped me to know better and to put to use my organizational prowness which all has significant relevance in what I'm currently doing now. I remembered how i and my team will go about sourcing for the health personnels, drugs, funds and other resources to facilitate this outreaches to these villages at the end of every semester. Now that i have graduated and now working as a Pharmacist and by the virtue of my professional association as a Community Pharmacist, i have been involved in health outreaches and enlightment programs.
I can boldly say that this inate ability plus the previous experiences of doing such is helping out in what i currently do. Aside health, based on my love for music and as an instrumentalist, i have once held the position of instrumentalist coordinator where i led various people to achieve a particular task. Therefore, if the internet is shutdown and you are planning on having a health outreach or you need someone to help you organise an event, program or to lead a team for an achievable tasks or goal, here i am. Aside from the fact that it's inate and refined by trainings/commitments both formally or informally, its something i love doing. This particular skill is what people do for a living as event planners, program organisers/coordinators, team lead and so on.
In all, we all have one or the other skills whether inate or acquired which we should all discover and maximize to the optimum even as everything doesn't end with the internet. Off-internet skills are worthwhile which everyone should maximize. Thanks so much for reading even as comments and contributions are welcomed.
