What is that thing that is different about you now that wasn't so last year December? What is that major growth you have done within the past year and what does it mean for you?
Change is very important in our lives because it is vital for personal growth, it is the drastic alteration that occurs between where you were and where you are now, change leads to personal growth and development, Mind you change can be positive or negative, it is either you are growing to be a better person or you are growing not to be. Growth is a sign that we are closer to achieving our goals and ambitions in life
A lot has happened in my life, when I say a lot I mean a lot since last year December till now, there have been some changes in the way I think, the way I overcame certain challenges, how I've been positioning myself for better, and my approach to making decisions.
In the late part of last year, I had just rounded up my service year and was home for some months during my stay in the house, a friend of mine connected me to an online job which I kinda found interesting at first, but as times on I started losing interest, cause it wasn't what I wanted, I'm just doing it till I get a better job, instead of staying at home being idle cause you know what they say about the idle mind being you know right? yes, you are correct.

This year I had my very first job interview and guess what I passed, I've always wanted to work in an organization as an accountant because I studied accounting, I can remember what people would say in Nigeria about the course you studied doesn't matter, you can study mechanical engineering and still work at the bank as a marketer when I told my cousin I'm working as an accountant he was surprised he was like "you're the only one who studied accounting and is working as an accountant interesting" He said he couldn't remember what he studied again in school cause he felt there was no need to remember when he won't get a job relating to what he studied.
My growth so far will be about my career, I'm grateful to be working as an accountant because that is what I've always wanted, and working here has made me realize that I'm closer to achieving my dreams in life.
Not only have I been able to achieve one of my goals, but I've associated with a lot of people, and I've gained a lot of knowledge in accounting, my job has taught me there is more to accounting than using paper and pen in school, and this is the practical aspect of it. This is everything I've been meaning to fulfill.
For me, growth in my career means more than promotion, it's the knowledge I've been able to acquire, and it means doing something I'm solely passionate about.
