Tabernacle of Testimony When the time to graduate came, I soon became part of the statistic and found myself jobless. But I was determined. I started attending the financial meetings on Mondays and decided that I would really put what I learnt in these meetings into practice. It wasn’t always easy but I would push myself to, and as a result, I landed my first graduate job in an industry that was incredibly competitive and aggressive. Six months in, the company went through a management buyout phase. But instead of falling into despair, I didn’t give up; I was determined to succeed! Eventually, a company that showed surprising interest in what I had achieved in my short career in the industry, made me an offer, which was unbelievable. What they offered surpassed my expectations and I was even told in previous interviews that my expectations needed to be managed, but as I learnt in the Monday meetings, we are limitless. But it’s not over yet; now I’m aiming for the moon.” Michael Akinle MONDAY at 7pm (also at 8am, 10am & 4pm) STOP SUFFERING|04
