Opportunities don't always come to you. Sometimes you have to create your own opportunities.
Meet the young lady who appointed herself personal PA of Ex-President Obasanjo after she met him at a conference. She's been his PA till now
Here's her story.
"I was determined to serve one of the greatest leaders in Africa. So I positioned myself front row. I sat in the seat reserved for a @thesundaytimes journalist – my apologies your correspondent arrived late.
I made eye contact with Mr Olusegun the entire event. From start to finish. Once the event was over. Guests and fellow panellists wanted to take pictures and engage with Pres. Obasanjo
I stormed onto the stage and said, excuse me: "No more pictures! Can we get him into a private room, with a glass of water? In 10 minutes he'll resume to discuss matters and entertain the press"
He followed me & when we got into the room he asked: "Whose daughter are you?"
I responded "My father isn't anyone you know. He's Just a normal Nigerian citizen who relocated to the UK for a better life"
He chuckled and said, "So how can I help you?"
I said "well I'm your new PA. I'm going to serve you"
I've been serving him since that date.
Moral of the story: Opportunities don't always come to you. Sometimes you have to create your own opportunities.

Allaah gives the best to those who leave the choice to Him."And if Allah touches you with harm, none can remove it but He, and if He touches you with good, then He is Able to do all things." (6:17)
